True. It'll be interesting to see it play out. I'm sure the Pac-12 will cancel, cancel cancel, not postpone cancel. I would then expect Oregon to attempt to find games akin to what Nebraska is discussing.
Seems like everything you disagree with Is "right wing". You struggle to discern logical dissent from politicaly charged/influenced opinions. Perhaps you have been indoctrinated into the "thought" process of liberal hive mind. You just mark all anti left agenda opinions as right wing. Some see high risk, some don't. We all are basing our opinions on anecdotes we get from biased sources. Some people believe there are honest people on tv, some dont. Fox, CNN, MSNBC, all have interests and agendas, to deny that is absurd. They are all jackasses.
Well it looks like we agree on this. It is my opinion that any sanctions approved would likely be substantial, at a level that would be prohibitive, resulting in a significant financial losses (total fines exceeding any actual revenues gained by playing) incurred by the member going rogue. If the Conference announced that any member playing an independent schedule this Fall would forfeit one-half of their member share of collective revenues for 2020, 2021, and 2022, would Nebraska or Iowa decide to schedule games? I doubt it.
and all of those "studies and lawsuits" are funded by and initiated by people with a political agenda.
The conference would surely want its cut, but when Frost specifically notes $80-120MM in lost revenue for Nebraska if the season is canceled I'm assuming the myriad advisors who extrapolate the university's expected expenses are under the assumption that net sanctions would not surpass potential net profits.
Dumnznsuds , right wing media that made it go on forever ok, so countries that have said. Screw the virus, we choose to live and deal with life as it comes, WE .laughed at them....now look how they’re doing.??
Considering the circumstances, and Nebraska not being blue blood-esque for a couple of decades now, aren't we setting the bar kind of high with such demands....especially when we used to play all those teams?
2 things here. that story provided zero data. Also, the death rates of kids with covid is very low and the the death rate of kids from suicide is high so, of course, suicides are higher than covid deaths in kids. Is anyone arguing that death rates in children with covid is as high as their suicide rates? I would like to see actual data on the year to year change in childhood suicides between jan-july 2019 and same months in 2020.
which one of your rights are you most concerned about that you have lost? thanks
There might be divisions, but the sides are far from equal. Schools can exist without football. Not so much the other way around.
i dont necessarily disagree with you but there are a lot of people who do. a lot of people think their own description of risk is the only one that matters.
when did the B10 say they aren't playing? all i've seen is everyone saying they want to play and no decision has been made. did i miss something? based on the severe lack of accuracy of all reports related to this issue the last 24 hours i fully expect all the conferences to now play. Not sure what has actually been factually reported that definitely says they are not playing
There were numerous initial reports of a cancelation, including by this site, 247, and BTN, but the conference hasn't issued an official statement.
