We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Great discussions

So the Republican Party has historically blocked:

-Paid sick leave

-Paid family & medical leave

-Universal childcare

-Universal pre-K

-Expanded Child Tax Credit

-Programs to support reproductive health

And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

So are we still more upset about Diverse, but qualified, yet presumed unqualified hires, than DUI hires?

(Asking for anyone who cares about US National Security)

Pete Hegseth needs to go for the safety of the United States & the allies that we still have.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life.

Here's what that can look like:

The Pac-12 doomsday clock ticks as Colorado departure puts the conference on life support
GoldenSD81's avatar

Here is my moonshot, out of the box and Hail Mary idea to save the Pac12.

Pac12 and MWC fully merge into a 20 team league called the PMWC.

Set the league up with a European style soccer regulation format, this could help keep things interesting for teams that aren’t going to make a bowl game and gives teams and fans of those programs something late in the season to keep them engaged.

Do not allow any programs within the PMWC to schedule any OOC games with USC or UCLA in any sports.

In fact, try to …

Have you counted the eyeballs of the markets that would be involved in this scenario? I ask simply because that's what the TV powers will need to do in order to value it for a contract.

GoldenSD81's avatar

What’s the value of the market for just about the entire west and west coast college football. Negotiate it not as an individual market but basically an entire region.

You would basically have the entire TV markets of the following states: Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Arizona, Hawaii, and New Mexico. You would be splitting the markets in Colorado, Utah, and California.

America is built on monopolies, the PMWC would just about a complete physical monopoly on all CFB in the west. They would …

GoldenSD81's avatar

I knew I forgot someone, yes Nevada as well.

Even in states that we don’t control the whole market, the PMWC would have more teams represented in each state:

Utah: UU, USU vs BYU

Colorado: CSU, Air Force vs Colorado

California: Cal, SDSU, SJSU, FSU, vs USC, UCLA

People like to say demographics is destiny, well the number of students and future alumni would dwarf that of the rival in state schools.

Being from the Central Valley, I would like to point out that, despite being more sparsely populated, the Central Valley is more interested in and dedicated to traditional sports and has a gross population that makes a much more involved and loyal fanbase than most urban contrasts. Even FSU rival alum in The Valley would rally for FSU as matter of regional pride. Everyone there knows or is connected to a FSU grad.

What problem?
