So, CatsbyAZ, I've wondered how you pronounce the "Catsby" part.  Does it rhyme with "Gatsby" or with "cats fly"?


Yes think of Jay Gatsby. Today I brood over the PAC 12 like the eyes of Doctor TJ Eckleberg’s do over the Valley of Ashes.

“This is a valley of ashes--a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat into ridges and hills and grotesque gardens; where ashes take the forms of houses and chimneys and rising smoke and, finally, with a transcendent effort, of men who move dimly and already crumbling through the powdery air.”

I used to read a lot more F. Scott Fitzgerald.t

The Valley of Ashes is now Flushing Meadows Park.  It was the site of the 1939 and 1964 World's Fairs.

King Larry: "At this time, our universities in California and Oregon do not have approval from state or local public health officials to start control practice. We are hopeful that our new daily testing capability can help satisfy public health official approvals in California and Oregon to begin contact practice and competition. We are equally closely monitoring the devastating fires and air quality in our region at this time. We are eager for our student-athletes to have the opportunity to play this season, as soon as it can be done safely and in accordance with public health authority approvals."

Gov Newsom's impatient response:


https://twitter.com/wilnerhotline/status/1306319534710693888

Reading between the lines: King Larry calls Gov Newsom, hoping to hide behind his support of no football. Gov Newsom, with much bigger issues on hand, such as the wildfires and COVID spiking on California college campuses, tells King Larry to f%$# off, leading King Larry to believe they're best buds. So to make his point again Newsom tells King Larry to f%$# off again by telling the media "nothing in state rules [is] preventing teams from playing."

Suddenly King Larry is running in circles trying to restart football. All this after King Larry happily shut down football in hopes the rest of college football, which couldn't care less about the Pac 12, would follow his lead to forget football this Fall.
