I have a profound confusion in this area and maybe someone sees this well enough to help out. Let's say we have many players around the country who are making big salaries with NIL contracts (or anything for that matter) and as far as the courts are concerned they are employees (of somebody) on...

THAT is really funny.

"Where the hell are the environmentalists? Oh that's right. They don't care." I write here for my brothers on IE just because I know many of you DO care. I don't write because I hope to change anything about the poster above. You already know, I'm sure, that he is simply an asshole and...

Gamble came to Notre Dame after my junior year. Unfortunately for him, Joe Kuharich was the coach (and mightily failing) and pinned his future to the "elephant backfield" that he bragged about in recruiting. This group of newcomers was to feature Jim Snowden (NFL offensive tackle) at fullback...

Twentyone-gun salute for Towt --- coach's dream warrior.

As to "we": I was born in 1940. Therefore I lived through the growth of this Crap-at-the-Top. But I cannot honestly beat myself up about being the cause of its "success." I never treated anyone this way, and once an adult, indicated to others what I felt about it on the rare moments something of...

I apologize for my OCD; just want to note that this is our guy's dad, not he himself. (He's a bit young for this.)

There is talk of scheduling the Miami game there ... but in the Colosseum.

The big guy can't shoot ... agreed. The coach should set up offense to accommodate that flaw ... agreed. But it sure as hell would be nice if everyone else busted their ass like he does out there. Thanks, big fella.

I live in western Michigan, and my Catholic parish had a relationship with the hundreds and hundreds of temporary worker immigrants who worked both the planting but mainly the harvesting season for our HUGE fruit belt economy. We spent weekly support service for those folks and their families...

If Iowa doesn't offer, how wouldn't we? SD TE next door to IA? Seems destined.

With this being a "job for pay", what really is there to stop a marginal-NFL player from continuing to make a living occupying a collegiate roster spot? Where's the "law" which opposes that? Isn't this just one big court case away? It seems to me that the only thing which could stop this...

.... just to be clear on my take: I do NOT subscribe to the conspiracy position in post number 9071 above. My assessment is that this POTUS runs his own life and always has, as a spoiled egocentric hedonist (utterly self-oriented and beyond any "law" other than something more powerful than he...

The "conversation" here is "understandable" in horrible nearly terrifying ways. Nothing about it is "funny" nor "laughable" in any way to anyone with any maturity or morality. This is about a person with no moral compass at all. He is the Fairy Tale Bully, who enjoys himself so completely, so...

probably already said, but if he doesn't shove some really useful depth player out, I'd like to have Buchner as a seriously dangerous fake field goal holder. He might be as dangerous as anybody around at that.

... only if he wanted to tell Certa something specially for that last 9 seconds rushed play would it make sense. Since Certa's the Bomber, that could make sense.

I watched a little of this. For much of that time, we were employing a defensive philosophy which I generally like --> the Hard Hedge by the screener's man on high top of key area screens. Our Big would do this generally fine, but the guard screened (especially when it was the coach's son)...

Well, that's not what I wrote. (or intended to write anyway.) What I was saying is just that we can make the playoffs even with the conferences making schedule-making tough on us, SO the upper air negotiations MUST now be just about how much MONEY ND Football will lose if it joins a conference...

Strange stats: even shooting percentages, but we're outrebounded by almost 20!. Fortunately we make all our foul shots, plus steal the ball. Cass Prosper plays only 17 minutes --- I'm assuming foul trouble plus, maybe, a little bench time for gloating over an opponent after a physical lay-up...

I'm wondering if IE members know what the football economic differences are (just that; no "history" or pissed-off-ness) going into the near foreseeable future: independence vs B1G vs ACC [I don't see compatibility with SEC nor Big12.] My request is because I believe that none of the "other...
