    OT - gas prices ahead of the 23 cent tax

    I doubt stations will raise their prices much ahead of the tax. Unless there's collusion between stations in the area, they'd just b costing themselves business.

    OT- How much does Fios cost?

    I have verizon fios for phone, tv, & internet (75/75). I have an HD package, but no premium movie channels (HBO/Showtime/etc...), one HD DVR. My bill after all fees & taxes is $141/month.

    Poll: Rutgers opening day QB -2016

    When the crystal ball says it's going o be Laviano, you have to vote for Chris. I'm expecting to see CL to have taken a step forward and for everyone to be surprised by our improved QB play. I wasn't a big CL supporter in 2015, but really my problem was with the coaching not Chris. My...

    2015 Big Ten Payouts for the 3 newest members

    I'm glad RU didn't take a loan. If we used the loan for FB/BB staff/infrastructure, I'd be ok with it. But in reality we'd be under huge pressure to use it to lower or subsidy amount which means instead of having a subsidy of ~20M for 6 years we'd have a subsidy of ~10M for 12 years. Now, when...

    OT: Expensive Cognac

    To be fair, a bottle of wine only has ~4.5 glasses in it, but 750 ml of whiskey has ~17 servings. So a comparable bottle of whiskey is something in the $400 range.

    OT: Expensive Cognac

    There's 59 ounces in 1.75L, so the price for the bottle was either the price at a restaurant somewhere or was some sort of special bottle. Typically, Remy Martin Louis XIII goes for about 3k a bottle retail (750ml). It's been a while since I've worked in the industry, but I think just the empty...

    Subsidy down to $23.8 Million

    The student fees also include the cost of the recreational centers. I'd love for RU to move this to the general fund, since it really has nothing to do with the athletic department. Increase tuition by $700/year to cover the cost of the running the student recreation centers and then charge for...

    B1G Fighting ACC & Big 12 Petition to change CCG

    It really would be best for the conferences to expand. 5 conferences of 14 or even 16 teams. Then expand the playoffs to either 6 or 8 team with conference champs guaranteed a spot. That would mean the top 70-80 teams have a direct route to be national champs. The remaining seeds can be...

    Letter to Editor-Rutgers Should Shut Down Football Program

    Football and MBB turn profits at most P5 schools. Even RU's revenue sports, with our less than stellar performance lately, help offset the cost of other programs. If you drop football, the subsidy will go up not down. Additionally, the B1G will throw us out if we don't have a FB program, so...

    Rutgers is looking at Ohio State's Chris Ash (FOX Sports)

    I'm glad we're casting a wide net. If we're considering DC's, I hope we also contacted Clemson's Bren Venables.
