If I remember right the Longhorn Network was the sticking point for Texas (and presumably 3 other Big 12 schools) joining the Pac-12 a few years back. The Pac-12 shares TV revenue equally and Texas wanted no part of that... otherwise the Big 12 would probably be dead right now.

I’m a Longhorn fan and I thought from the start UT should have put aside their self interest to a degree and do what is best for the conference overall. That being said they are making tons of money and I don’t want to hear Mike Gundy whining about this like he does everything else. What a crybaby, even though he’s…

No I saw that too but that’s like two things. You telling me the ONLY non-writing jobs he could get was UPS or pot farming? If true, then fine I guess. But that’s not what he says. He doesn’t say he’s been sending out 50 resumes a week to regular jobs and can’t get hired. He just mentions writing and these two random…

I’m probably being a huge asshole but I have trouble understanding how the non-custodial parents not paying child support are the victims here.

I would have loved it if the reporter told Harbaugh that his questions were fine and that he doesn’t need to show his ass 24 hours a day. And THEN dismiss Harbaugh by telling him “forget it, I’ll go find a coach not on his period”. It might have actually made the reporter’s career to get back in his face.

Must be a baseball thing like not flipping your bat or strutting around the bases on a home run.

While a funny tweet and I’ll always have time for a LOLMets fiasco, why is it so inhumane to leave him in the game with a trade deal done?

Sorry we weren’t interested in being scammed, USOC. Maybe you’ll have better luck stealing money and land from Los Angeles?

They’re not “refusing” to hold a conference championship game, they can’t. NCAA requires a conference have at least 12 members before it can hold a conference championship game that doesn’t count as a regular season game. Otherwise, each team would have to schedule 11 games and hope they qualify for the the…

He struck out the last 5 batters and people were rooting for 20 strikeouts? Sounds like dumbass Yankee fans, yes it does.

In my mind, Pedro vs. Clemens on May 28, 2000 [link] might have been on par. He only K’d 9 and he gave up four hits, but this was one of the best one-on-one pitching duels I’ve ever watched. The two pitchers were fighting one another without ever facing each other.

Was it THAT shitty of a thing to say? I found it rather humorous. Was it unprofessional? Perhaps a little. His point was that in this age we have disproportionate outrage mostly fueled by how easily things like this spread on the Internet. I think it's true.

I mean, he’s not wrong.

How do you think I felt as a uconn student?

I’m sure the fan in attendance was very disappointed in the effort.

Good thing no one was there to see it.

I find the old expanded universe to be incredibly mentally exhausting. There are so many books!

I think you might be. I was a huge fan of the old EU (I read everything but the Prequel-era books), but being able to start over from scratch is an interesting concept.

There was this guy today at the cafe, where we were the only two people in the room, and he kept on staring at me, while I was eating, doing homework, and using the phone. And as I was using Tinder, I saw his profile, it was quite racially charged and full of fetishization (think confederate flags, Yellow Fever,…
