    Dump Adidas

    If you are a student, you are only paying $5 a game, if you're paying for a seat while a student, you're an idiot. I did check my facts, I couldn't find an exact contract, cause there isn't one out there, but every reference I have heard has the cashflow going the other way, so if you could...

    Dump Adidas

    Adidas did not pick our school colors, and there are numerous, subtle differences. Would you have rathered adidas given us hideous uniforms just so they would be different? Also, we have silver in our uniforms, something we will use to differentiate ourselves more from them. ole miss and LSU...

    Banner headline on CNN says sources state PSU will have $30 million in fines from NCAA.

    Banner headline on CNN says sources state PSU will have $30 million in fines from NCAA. Penn State essentially put themselves at the NCAAs mercy, openly accepting the Freeh Report (signing documents that say so). You kind of get the feeling that their administration doesn't want to fight in...

    Please take the time to go sign this petition...

    You can fire guns aimlessly into the air, Yosemite Sam, the treaty would genuinely only effect the gun trade, not sale. And Mr. Morris is flat out wrong, no treaty carries the weight of an amendment. US support for the treaty is largely based on the fact that countries are selling guns in bulk...

    This could be a favorite topic we haven't done - Favorite Professor at State?...

    Buy or Sell: The Prosecution of Barry Bonds & Roger Clemens was a HUGE urination of taxpayer money.

    Buy or Sell: The Prosecution of Barry Bonds & Roger Clemens was a HUGE urination of taxpayer money. DoJ actually cannot pick and choose unless an executive order is granted. you're right that they can get lax on enforcing those laws, but in doing so they open themselves up to pressure and...

    On Regionals, for those of you who don't do probability well.

    that's just not how odds work. the odds of winning the next game are what they are going into the next game regardless of what happens before. you're basically saying that if team X wins 90% of their games, and has won 9 in a row, the odds of them losing the next are higher simply because...

    OT Re: Newspapers (haven't seen this mentioned on here)

    I feel like its a two fold problem for large papers because when you lose subscribers you also lose money from advertisers who won't pay as much. but i think small town papers might not suffer so much since they are cheaper subs, only come out once a week anyway, and are oftentimes the only form...

    they know what ISP you are using, and will ask you to log in using your username & password for whatever provider you do have. that being said, if you know someone who has a log in, you can use theirs, regardless if you are watching it from your house or not. its screwy and hard to know if i...

    I know its Germans about Balis being really good

    i'm not homophobic, i love offensive jokes as much as the next guy, and i have no idea what the whole shirts off thing is about. but that wasn't funny, it doesn't even make sense. summary: it just wasn't funny. nice try though.
