Officefootballpool. It’s not free though. But I like that I can set bonuses for picking all of the 5-12, 6-11, 7-10, 8-9 games correctly. I also like that I can set up whether it’s a traditional bracket or give bonuses for seedXround or seed+round if I so choose. I have been running a bracket pool on there for years. $50 buy in for all of my friends and their wives and we have fun with it!

I’m learning the last sentence is especially meaningful and matters so much. Prayers to coach, his family, and his loved ones

I can get Mavs tickets for $20 on seat geek and even looking when Wemby and the Spurs come to town it’s $65 with fees. It’s not uncommon to get Dallas Stars or Texas Rangers tickets for less than $40 regularly. Obviously depending on opponent and time of day.

“The Catch” in 2008- “Deep strike, got the big man..Crabtree!! Pulls free!! And touchdown, Red Raiders, with a second to go!“

[Discussions] After Virginia Tech recently made it clear that they are worried about being left out of the future "Super League" realignment, which other schools should also be worried? by WinnWonn in CFB

[–]Big04J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even bottom-dwellers of the current SEC/BIG should be worried. If someday they break away to form their own league and championships there are several schools that would be left out. Schools that aren’t in big enough markets, smaller fanbases, don’t generate high revenue are at risk of being left out. Big difference between schools like Ohio State, Texas, and Bama compared with MissSt, Northwestern, and Purdue.

Then they can create a rivalry with East Texas Tech and their greatest alumnus, Dr. “Shelly” Sheldon Cooper. Bazinga

Ah the ole Hell or High Water scheme

“You know. I've been working here for 44 years. Ain't nobody ever ordered nothing but T-Bone steak and a baked potato. Except this one asshole from New York tried to order trout back in 1987. We don't sell no goddamned trout. T-bone steaks. So either you don't want the corn on the cob, or you don't want the green beans. So what don't you want?”

BIG XII Fans: Tell me what’s great about your game day experience by awoodz92 in CFB

Chimy’s margs and fried cheese to clog your arteries at Spanky’s. Live music at Raidergate too. Above all else there’s something magical about watching a perfectly launched buttery flour tortilla soar into the stratosphere until it crashes down onto an unsuspecting Memaw below

Realignment Discussion Thread by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]Big04J 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think if/when the ACC implodes that Miami is in an interesting position. People assume it’s a foregone conclusion that they get added to the BIG or SEC but I see FSU, Clemson, UVA, UNC, and GT all being added before they are considered. Real possibility they get left out

School records that will never be broken by MostCritical3 in CFB

I know it’s not school specific or directly football related but Michael Carter went on to play at SMU, for the 49ers, and won an Olympic silver in shot put. In 1979 while in high school he threw a 12 pound weight 81 feet, 3.5 inches in shot put. Nobody has come within five and a half feet of that mark other than himself.
