I’m sorry, the biggest red flag is that he isn’t that good at basketball. Is a draft pick, the rookie salary and a roster spot a worthwhile price to pay, to get Bron? In a vacuum, probably so. But to me, it would be just another in a long line of GM Bron moves that isn’t directed at maximizing his c...

How silly would it be if elmarko had declared and was refusing to sign any 2 way contracts

I agree with you. Neither is really draftable right now on his own merits.

I don't think money has anything to do with it. I think they know they can leverage the possibility of LeBron joining if you draft Bronny. They want to make sure that team is pot committed to developing Bronny. I almost wonder if it wouldn't be best for Bronny to go undrafted so he can handpick the...

Seems like common sense. Especially if LeBron is going to be a package deal. Two way contracts have limitations and restrictions. They are looking for a team to develop Bronny. And in return they get a few years of LeBron. They don't want Bronny thrown to the wolves in the g league where very littl...

Country club sport families were certainly beneficiaries of the old system, and this is another example of something that's going to be a LOT messier and bloodier to solve because the NCAA fought the tide (for so long) instead of riding the wave. I know you didn't intend it this way, but this is to...

OK i retract my statements about bronny being a good kid and not deserving all the hate/criticism. Bronny is now refusing to sign a 2 way contract and play in the g league https://www.instagram.com/p/C7XCHf8xHxH/?igsh=MW90NmI1bTZ4MjR6ZQ== Seems like common sense.

just cut all sports not named football and mens basketball. and call it a day. I don't like it, but yes, there will have to be cuts to, or a different way to fund, non-revenue sports. Country club sport families were certainly beneficiaries of the old system, and this is another example of somethin...

the KUAD said the other day that they pretty much break even every year. give or take. so. how they are going to pay the children is a problem. at least they said it was a problem. it's somebody's problem. not mine. but somebody's. sponsors on the jerseys. naming rights to AFH and memorial. cut all...

I'm putting this in this thread, and not the other one , because it's only related at 40,000 feet. I would not AT ALL mind seeing college basketball explore a more English/European soccer format, where there are multiple threads in play somewhat concurrently. For example, I'm imagining the existence...

It’s so goofy that the stadium there is so bad. It's really not a part of the country that makes sense for pro baseball, for a lot of reasons. yeah i know those things, but it's still goofy. Goofy as hell - but I think the goofiness (and the protracted fantasyland proposals over time, including spl...

Sturgeon, Missouri, residents are speaking out about safety after a Sturgeon Police Department officer shot and killed a 13-pound blind Shih Tzu mix. Maybe the dog dragged him 30' with his car and tore the officer's pants? What, exactly, are we doing here? Louisville Police Have Very Little To Say ...

I wish I was (only) joking, but - today's migrant staying in Central America is tomorrow's migrant in a caravan that has an ETA of about October 20.

cult The price of admission is your soul, and some bootlicking of course. When people talking about needing to take money out of politics, this is, broadly, sort of the point. It's one thing to have actual public-service principles that are disagreeable. It's quite another to have none whatsoever.

Ugh, I just had a sinking thought - watch Alito recuse himself from the immunity case *now* as a means of giving Roberts a fake reason to hold a new round of oral arguments or something else that knifes the possibility of a Chutkan trial before November. With a bonus opportunity for Roberts to prete...

I've never been to Tropicana Field, but you're right, looking at pictures of the inside of the dome it is uuuuuuuuugly! That does not increase my inclination to watch a game there. ________________________________________________________________________ After 2-3 weeks of not being able to watch a ...

I was with, last night, the Trumper with whom I’m closest. He knows that we have wildly differing views on these things. Holding court with some of his sheep, he had the audacity to say that the system is working as it is designed to, with people having indirect power to steer the direction of the C...

no, it wasn't the choice of the schools it was a lost court battle In a narrow sense, yes this was an emergency settlement that the NCAA agreed to to stop the bleeding. But in a broader sense, yes absolutely it was a choice to fight the tide until it washed over them. There were decades of opportun...

Part of me wonders if this isn't at least partly so the schools/ncaa can take back some control over the money to ensure they're getting "their fair share" of these NIL dollars that they currently get none of. I'll be curious to see what the stipulations are that they impose when they sta...

What's next? Allowing professional athletes to compete in the Olympics? Oh, wait. Sorry!

The NCAA played stupid games. This is exactly the sort of stupid prize it was bound to win.
