And they wonder why people are leaving the church in droves. Christianity is dying in Europe. Their ancient churches and cathedrals virtually nothing more than museums.


I believe the Orthodox Catholic Church is growing. It’s the communistic led Roman Catholic Church that is failing.

Time for power 5 to break away from group of 5 You let the group of 5 hijack the playoffs this year It’s a joke


Are y’all really this retarded? The ACC could have prevented this. Virginia wins and JMU is out. That simple.

after every year, guys on a traditional track to being drafted after three years, are entering the portal for a pay raise. Continuity can be good for a player’s development, and sticking around is great for the team. Will this “hello I’m gone” bit ever stop? Or is progressing at one school a thing of the past? The NFL cares little for a kid’s loyalty, so no help there. There was a time when we could look at our roster and say “ok we took our lumps but we’re a year away or we’re two years away”. Not any more fosters turn over and flip more than a Vegas whore.


Just be glad you’re a fan of a program that has some prestige and is in the SEC.

You’re not nearly as effected as a lower tier P4 program or G6 program.

A far better option to making the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) available to everybody. Most people, even low wage folks would retire millionaires.


That’s precisely why it would never be implemented. Creating wealth for every American would destroy the two party system.

So let me get this straight - SMU, Texas Tech, BYU, Utah, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Tennessee, and Texas A&M are championship caliber, but Ole Miss, Southern Cal, Washington, and Oregon aren’t?

Are you fricking retarded?


You’re missing the point, there are 65ish P4 teams. Of those 65 only the traditional top 1/3 of each league can realistically have a shot at winning the Title.

That's a playoff a team like Tulane could win. Two separate 8 team playoffs would be fair enough. 12 may be too many...


The ironic part of this argument is that everyone in the Big 10, Big 12, ACC or SEC can win a title.

Miss St, Vandy, Kentucky, and Arkansas have a near zero chance of winning a title either. shite Arkansas and Miss St have won what 2 SEC games in the past 3 seasons?

quote:

75-80 teams will never be able to win a National Championship


There are 130 FBS teams, I think, and less than 20 have a realistic shot at winning a National Championship.

ACC has 3 maybe 4 teams capable of putting that together. Big12 has 2 or 3 tops. Big 10 has 5ish. SEC has 6 or 7.

ACC: Miami, FSU, Clemson & SMU
Big 12: Texas Tech, BYU, Utah, ASU
Big 10: Ohio State, Michigan, Penn St, Wisconsin, Nebraska
SEC: Bama, UGA, Tenn, Texas, A&M, OU, LSU, Florida, Auburn

That’s realistically the only teams who have a legitimate shot to sustain a program long enough to compete year in and year out.

Every other program is either coattails riders or has zero chance of winning it all.

She was with Gil Birmingham and Martin Sensmeier on a press tour for Wind River.

Gil got me hammered.

No, the Jesuits aren’t the militant violent type. The Jesuits are the traitor communists. They undermine church teachings in order to side with woke enemies of the church, rather than to carry out atrocities to protect it.


This is the correct answer.

FCS gets it right and has a true playoff, but FBS never will because of the money schools.


To expound on this, it’s not the elite schools, it’s the coattail riding programs that mooch off of the elites.

Why would Ole Miss and Miss St ever allow that when USM would have a better chance at the playoffs, year in and year out.

They hang on to Oregon and PSU waaaaay too long. These 2 teams have an insane benefit of the doubt with the committee.

You’re missing the point when it comes to this administrations stance on Venezuela, Columbia and Argentina.

If you think it’s about Narcos you need to read between the lines.
You’re “Best” offer isn’t always your best fit.

As a parent you have to help your kid determine what they want out of their college athletic experience. Have a realistic idea of their ceiling and potential.

1. Determine if playing time is a priority or if being a part of a high profile program experience the priority.

2. Location and support system in place at the university. Academically as well as campus/community life.

3. Coaching characteristics

4. When all of those things are evaluated then worry about NIL.

I’m going to experiment with hydro-turf in one of mine to see if that quiets them up.
