And I guess we need to define “major city,” but Columbus is the largest city in Ohio (bigger than Cleveland and Cinci, both major league cities) and is the state capital, and Austin has a million or so people and also is a state capital. Georgia Tech has been good, they are in Atlanta. Houston is top 25, as is BC. 

No one gives a fuck about your big dick spending habits and how you two will surely spend more than two other people at a restaurant that will have the same menu with the same prices for both couples.

Also: Who gives a fuck what a computer scientist thinks about the President? A historian, political scientist, sociologist from Yale — sure. Their work probably connects with these sorts of questions. But what kind of letterhead starfuckery leads to giving a high-profile op-ed and interview on politics to a computer…

A baseball player being a bit slow intellectually? Well, I never ...

Everything you say is correct. And sad.

I have a soft spot for clogs.

All thirteen of those guys had “significantly more success” than Bradley? I see four, maybe five who had “significantly” more success. Maybe. Obviously this is subjective, but you are being VERY generous in trying to counter the argument.

The first two levels of English, French, Italian, Spanish, and German football get you to ten alone. And if you think MLS is better than the second tier of any of those leagues you aren’t worth engaging, since the real debate becomes which of those leagues’ third divisions you honestly think MLS is better than. It is…

Michael Bradley may or may not suck. Michael Bradley is unquestionably one of the top ten US soccer success stories in Europe. Perhaps these two true things should temper our opinions about what the US can do going forward. We have a shitty domestic league (and yes, it’s getting better and yet still is not close to one…

Didn’t Jay Glazer at one point claim he was prepared to knock out Peyton Manning for this or that (in the Colts locker room, as he tells it)? I watched tonight’s pregame show where he was a good eight inches shorter than anyone else on the set when they were all standing side-by-side (for some reason) and I’m just…

Also a DIII athlete. But also closer to DI than to high school. And if you were actually a DIII player, you know this — you were one of how many guys who played college football on your high school team? Let’s say your high school team was EXCEPTIONAL, and ten guys you played with went to play college ball. That means…

1993 = Canada 80s.

Obviously there are exceptions — huge schools in Texas and Florida and California with multiple DI recruits might close the gap (but their team would still get waxed by a DIII team) but I think people have no idea that DIII athletes were the best athletes in their schools. They hear DIII and think “well, those guys…

The talent level at in DIII is FAR closer to DI than to high school. Starting DIII football players were virtually all high school stars, all conference, and the like. It’s very easy to diminish DIII athletes, but the book written about St. Johns talks about how the difference between DI and DIII tends to be a couple…

Uncanny.

Fellow Williams alum?

So I’m a professor at a DII university that just started football in the last few years. We are starting to see boosters who are realizing that they can act like big swinging dicks here for donating the sort of money that literally would not even get them season tickets at their power five alma mater elswhere in the…

“That’s got to be worth something.”

Your tragedy makes me hurt for you. Godspeed, tmed. Godspeed.
