  1. I agree I thought you were wondering why they stopped her. I guess I didn't read the other posts. Sorry. Edit: I do not understand where this crap is coming from. No way my kids pull this crap...or believe in it for that matter. Of course they are off to college now so who knows how that will change.
  2. I think I read she had used the bathroom before this footage was taken and was going back in to take pictures when they stopped her. My guess is she probably complained to the staff about what was written in the bathroom and got blown off, so she was going back in to take pictures and send to management. If they just let her go in and say nothing they probably keep their jobs and it would have been on the owners to make a statement....which they had to do anyway.
  3. The boards are all saying it's being investigated. I think Howard has shown a very short fuse on several occasions and is on a zero tolerance policy after the Wiscy coach head slap. This could very well mean he is done, which at this point would be OK with half the fanbase. When you have two NBA lottery picks and cannot make the tourney....
  4. I know we have messed up Gen Z in lots of ways…but these are not Harvard or UPenn kids. Where is this stuff coming from? The kids lost their jobs BTW. https://www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/farleys-east-parts-ways-with-employees-accused-of-anti-semitism/
  5. The title of the thread is about rumors. FSU to the Big Ten. I guess The CFP snub got them rattled. Yahoo article USA Today article Another article Edit: looks like this tweet started it. https://www.tallahassee.com/story/sports/college/fsu/2023/12/09/fsu-big-10-rumors-what-we-know-florida-state-leaving-acc/71862783007/
  6. Honestly I am over people calling for other people's jobs based on something they said or didn't say. Its getting old. I also doubt you can find a politician with a morale high ground. My post is about the antisemitism being exposed in our 'elite' universities. I shouldn't be surprised, but I am.
  7. Agree they need to do the work or autograph signings or whatever, but is the amount paid for such things regulated? are QBs really putting in 1.6M of work?
  8. This is an interesting statement from Disney in their 10-K. The 10-K stated, "We face risks relating to misalignment with public and consumer tastes and preferences for entertainment, travel and consumer products, which impact demand for our entertainment offerings and products and the profitability of any of our businesses." "Further, consumers’ perceptions of our position on matters of public interest, including our efforts to achieve certain of our environmental and social goals, often differ widely and present risks to our reputation and brands," Disney wrote. Disney honchos added that "the success of our businesses depends on our ability to consistently create compelling content" and "our revenues and profitability are adversely impacted when our entertainment offerings and products, as well as our methods to make our offerings and products available to consumers, do not achieve sufficient consumer acceptance."
  9. Does 10 over or hitting 85 matter with NIL? Just pay them enough to cover tuition along with their NIL money.
  10. https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/10/politics/cnn-tv-antony-blinken-hamas-sexual-violence/index.html “I don’t know why countries, leaders, international organizations were so slow to focus on this, to bring it to people’s attention. I’m glad it is finally happening,” Blinken told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.” “The atrocities that we saw on October 7 are almost beyond human description or beyond our capacity to digest. And we’ve talked about them before, but the sexual violence that we saw on October 7 is beyond anything that I’ve seen either.” Asked by Tapper why the United Nations and the international community have been so slow to respond to the allegations, Blinken said, “I think it is a question that these organizations, these countries need to ask themselves.”
  11. Various Ivy League presidents testified about the antisemitism on their campuses. It didn't end well. The UPenn president might lose her job. UPenn also lost a 100M donation. The Harvard President came back with an apology. This Tweet had a word not allowed on the board. The ChatGPT founder, who is Jewish, said that "for a long time" he believed that antisemitism was "not as bad" as people said. "For a long time I said that antisemitism, particularly on the American left, was not as bad as people claimed," Altman said. "I'd like to just state that I was totally wrong." https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/08/us/claudine-gay-harvard-president-apology-crimson.html
  12. I heard he got some momentum from the Newsome debate, but I didn't watch it. I guess he lost all that political capital quickly. Trump was certainly concerned when DeSantis entered the race. I guess he can focus on Haley now. I am not sure if she can pull it off though. I suspect DeSantis stays in through SC.
  13. If Hartline bought Smith a cheeseburger I want him suspended for 3 games, otherwise I don't care.
  14. That's it! No good QB would come to NU without this upgrade.
  15. Not the portal, but crazy season none the less. Seems unlikely this would be true although I could see matching an NFL RB salary.
  16. OSU exodus.

  17. I am surprised by the lack of condemnation of how women were abused on Oct 7th, as shown by Hamas' own videos. It took the UN over a month to say something. Protestors that ignore what Hamas did to women (and their treatment of women in general) is a head shaker. https://www.instagram.com/p/C0aT47gxKfk/?hl=en "the world has failed the women of October 7th." "We claim we stand against rape, violence against women. We will not let women be victimized and then silenced. We say we believe women, stand with women, speak out for women." "This is our moment as women and allies of women to act. I am beseeching all those who have done so much for women’s rights globally – from the UN, to the human rights community, to please join in the demand that Hamas release every single woman hostage immediately – not after the next round of international mediation, not after another day. These women cannot survive another moment of this horror," Gadot wrote.
  18. Actually I did know that. Took me a bit to remember. Reward for academic achievement guess.
  19. Hmm. I honestly thought the bowls chose based on eyeballs and attendance. In which case, NU is the smarter choice.
  20. I am surprised they took a 5-7 Minny over NU. Did NU decline?
  21. I read the comment same on 11 warriors. Harbaugh finally started to do that in 2020.
