that crappy nfl that gets 5x the tv ratings? That one? 

no tv network stupid enough to try and schedule a college game on the nfl season opener featuring the defending super bowl champs. 

cause that’s what those Thursday college games all about- just tv ratings.

A larger audience doesn't imply a better product.  Shit-ass Budweiser gets well over 5x the market share of actual good beer.  People like shitty products, film at 11.

But I certainly agree with your point that the television networks aren't dumb enough to go against the idiot mouth-breathing NFL fan masses.

It hasn't been easy to be optimistic about Texas over the past decade, that's for sure.
At least you’ve seen the best of times in your lifetime to go along with the worst of times. Same for the Nebraska fans.  A&M seems like it’s been in a cycle of bad to mediocre to kinda good to almost great for the last 25 years. With exactly one conference title to show for it. But then I realize it could be worse. We could be Texas Tech fans. 😳

That looks pretty good.

I've always (so far?) found the meat to bread ratio to be too small in Europe.

Anyone see this?  

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/nfl-world-reacts-to-embarrassing-stephen-a-smith-news/ar-AA11BHpS?ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=05b4bb7d9610482f96317dfb02513ac1

that Screamin' A Smith is hands down one of the biggest ill informed lampshades in the business.You'd think he might learn from osmosis from like 3 yrs back.He was critiqueing a upcoming contest between the Eagles-Rams. And he bloviates the biggest match-up of the game was between 2 guys who were injured/thru for the season. What is this yapping jackel paid for a season? yelling like someone is giving his hemmis a root canal with a Black & Decker.Have a read
