nah the study I’m upset about is the one PSU wouldn’t allow to be published because it was critical of fracking. the chocolate milk “science” is bullshit, it’s one of the most made fun of “studies” out there. why do you want to win this argument so badly?
This is exactly how academic research works...I mean College Park has a prof who published grant funded research from the chocolate milk industry that magically found that chocolate milk helps you recover from workouts. Now Kevin Love and Klay Thompson do commercials for chocolate milk that is “backed by science”.…
Dude those guys also took a $102 million payoff from the Pegula family for that stupid hockey rink in return for only finding positive research for fracking...as far as crimes against humanity go that’s actually a far worse thing to do than cover up child rape. Those dudes were evil plain and simple, and they got off…
I live in MD and that is exactly how my basement setup looks
No but they did get 3 misdemeanors, that was pretty intellectually dishonest. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/02/531243225/3-penn-state-officials-sentenced-to-jail-time-for-failure-to-report-sandusky.
Or...what if coaches just got paid $1 less than the highest paid faculty commensurate with experience. So no Nick Saban you don’t get a $4 million base it’s more like $200k and all your assistants get paid likewise. Holy mother of god you just got revenues to pay all the players. Saban can keep his free house and all…
In all likelihood the director of football ops paid for the food bills and Harbaugh just gave his card and got reimbursed. The NCAA has rules for how far away you can eat from a particular locale, and also guidelines for things like tipping. He or the football ops person could have also left some cash for tips. I find…
I agree that what happened was terrible, and most likely rape, but they play football for the University of Minnesota...not exactly “star” athletes. Some athletes, and some humans (like our president elect) can get away with “pussy grabbing” while other athletes and other humans don’t. Research on this has shown…
I’m pretty sure he hit another inside the parker a year later. This one was was the less awesome version.
1. Pete Carroll was one unfortunate play call from becoming a better coach than Bill Belichek. Could have been 2 SBs and 2 National Championships.
I suppose that I look at this from a more philosophical perspective. Why don’t we want unmitigated doping? You are implying because we don’t want people dropping dead to try to do amazing things on the playing field. Really? When’s the last time you checked on the health of a favorite athlete after their playing…
That's making the very big assumption that we aren't already at this point in many respects.
Will the Greene Turtle in Towson be a little more classy with a four piece jazz band on the rooftop for the networking afterparty? That’s a thing that’s happening...
Can’t it be a race thing AND a class thing? Those things aren’t mutually exclusive. All I’m saying is that it is more complex than poor black kids are getting ripped off (they are), and that there are other constituents getting ripped off in the meantime. And the genetics argument is tired. The human genome project…
While I agree with this somewhat, especially at the big time level, but it is more complex than that. At the mid-major schools you have predominantly middle class mostly white students who give zero effs about sport on their campus subsidizing rich and poor kid sports via student fees for athletics.
I delivered in Ithaca, NY as an undergrad and drove through some menacing weather in those days. I needed money and didn’t care much about delivering in bad weather but found that the tipping (especially from college students) was not really any better or worse during a storm. I would be ashamed not to tip extra…
I’d like to show this in my class where is the actual link to this video?
The greater point is that Athletic Administrators will take this and tell yarns about what an amazing thing it is to have great athletic success now pony up some student fees kids! You probably are an athletic administrator at Davidson and that was the best you could do, because most admins are blithering idiots…
