So instead of accepting your role in the pantheon of big-time sports, the Big Ten commissioner has cunningly been teasing people lately about his great expansion plan. One day he says it's a go. The next day he screams no. Anything, to make himself and his once proud conference relevant again. But the clock is ticking -- loudly.

In prison, full moon nights have a kind of brutal sodomy that can't fully be described with mere words.
But, yeah, the only thing I took away from that was

The constant unprovoked superiority complex is wearing thin. Maybe when SECBSH looks at the totality of things (both major revenue sports and academics) they're feeling a tad insecure.
You do realize that was bait, no? K would not drop a line like that without having a link to back it up.
i don't really follow cable politics and the whatnot, but from what i understand the sec's contract with espn will be paying out the same ten years from now as it does today, whereas the big ten network is already raking in mad dosh even though it wasn't expected to turn a profit for a few years.
then again, that's just the impression i've gotten while glancing through a few things and not anything i can actually back up.

Yeah, someone is getting fucking trolled.
I think the use of "pantheon" is a little rough. What he means is "hierarchy" in that the Big Ten should accept their lesser status to the MG. Pantheon, literally "all the Gods"....tends to have a valorizing or elevating sense of usage--the esteemed if not divine elements of the past. Not a word you use to indicate a subordinate relationship, IMO. If he means that the SEC has eclipsed the Big Ten in the present and thereby consigning the Big Ten to the past, irrelevance or archaism....pantheon is still not a good choice. Generally speaking, diminished importance is not the sense of "pantheon" as much as an abiding respect for the greats of the past....mythic, divine, or whatever.

You are truly one of the worst pieces of shit to ever post on this board. Start giving up your paycheck for reparations now and then you can shut the fuck up about your racist blasts.
Jenn Sterger. jeez. so, i'm reading she had her implants removed...."since they served their purpose". so, now she's working the Madonna femino-empowerment grapefruit boob angle? So, she was exploiting us instead of herself? you go gal.
from wiki:
On March 4, 2010 it was announced that she will be competing directly with ESPN's 6pm ET SportsCenter by hosting a new show on Versus called The Daily Line, which will debut on April 5. Jenn said, "I always felt sports TV was a bunch of guys in suits yelling at me. Other shows don't exactly know how to use social media and the Web," says Sterger. "Since I'm practically living on the Web, I've got a pulse on what going on out there.....And I'll be personally accessible to the audience, except for my personal phone number."[5]
i have to yawn out loud. As someone who's professional employment overlaps with the Colorado U. School of Journalism......all you have to do is incant "social media" and apparently the world is transformed. kinda like "startup" in the mid 90's re: the dot com bubble.
back on topic, UK may be hell on wheels on the club ice but those gals are 3rd rate. all respect to them as people, of course.
Oklahoma is apparently pretty good in club hockey, against whomever. CU's club team draws 1500 to play CSU.....and there's a lot of wishing that CU make a D-1 commitment to hockey since CO is a pretty active hockey state and U of Denver and Colorado College are very good hockey programs at smaller to very small schools.

Of course.
Because King Crimson is routinely turning down chicks who cracked deep into FHM's "100 Sexiest Women" list for being "3rd rate."
A simple Rule Of The Internet has been broken here -- when you dis world-renoun hotties as being beneath you, you don't come across as studley -- you come across as someone who hasn't been laid since their ill-fated slumber party at Diego's house lo those many years ago.
part of it was surprise, this is the best they could do? a couple fakie blondes.
1. the all-blonde robot thing is creepy to me
2. meh.
I work at a university. i see young women a lot. when i see a lot of these pics, i see past it.
some women are super hot, some women are framed by expectations, and photographic conventions of "what is hot". in much of the world, a fake blonde with an idiot smile is considered "smoking".
cheerleaders are rarely hot me, they are inventions. tropical fish.

Holy fuck, until KC backed off a bit, I was about to lose my mind over someone calling Ashley freaking Judd "third rate." Damn, for a little while a few years ago I considered her to be pretty damn close to The Perfect Woman. Smart, sexy, funny, reasonably beautiful, mischievous, adventurous, loves sports...yeah, she was nearly flawless.
Oh, and I wouldn't exactly call the chick in the tiara chopped liver either. Jesus.
i didn't back off anything. i'm on a college campus every day for the last 10 years.....you? but, looks like Dins has a new schtick.
i guess estimation of women posted in pics on message boards is a measure of your current trim lineup....just like a guy shouldn't watch porn since he can't nail those "hotties" with his Dins size phallus.
all i'm saying is that once a guy is off a college campus for a decade his idealization of "hottie" gets a little easy to produce by the college cheerleader sex industry promotion.
off the wonder, how many ads did you click Dins?
