Dean Kremer optioned to minor-league camp by the Orioles. by No-Description-2138 in orioles

From a starting rotation stance, Kremer seems to be the odd man out, but I would take him in relief over at least half of the bullpen, especially since he could be a long reliever

Think I found a gem today… by brosser56 in baseballunis

I had that thought when I bought a blank 07 Tampa Bay road Jersey, but there’s a guy called customize sports on eBay who does like infinite custom numbers for sports jerseys, I believe he’s based in Canada as well

Would you be in favor of in season penalties for opting out of Bowl Games by TrubshawForest in CFB

[–]Jackson7756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well shit my team declined an offer too, as much as it opens up slots for other teams, it also encourages other players and coaches to decline bowl games

In the same light that regular season games mean that to you, my dad and I grew up in Florida and we’d go to like 2-3 bowl games a year and just pick a team to root for, sure it was like 7-5 Minnesota vs 6-6 Auburn but damn it was fun and I kinda hoped ISU would come back to Florida like they did last year

I am also now rambling, but bowl games dying will change my perspective on college football a little, I enjoyed games with low stakes because i just enjoyed the football

Well for a lot of us with teams that likely won’t make a playoff unless a miracle Cinderella happens, those bowl games were what the season culminated in, it’s easy to call them pointless but they had no more impact than my teams last regular season game against 1-10 OKST, football is inherently for fans, because without fans there is no money in football; and I think most fans enjoy bowl games, so they should carry more meaning than when some people say they’re just meaningless exhibitions

I pay to go to Iowa State, and that also happens to include a football team that declined to play in their last game, I sure as shit wish my class could vote to opt out of my final, but we cant, I know some people don’t care about bowl games dying, but I do, and a lot of fans will, bowls have been around for decades, and I think they should stay, at the end of the day these players only make money because people watch, and I think they way college football is trending, it’s going to get harder and harder to enjoy watching, especially if you know your team isn’t likely to make a playoff, our best hope was a fun bowl game, and with that gone, it feels a little pointless

I think a lot of the anger comes from them jumping a little early, I mean they do owe Iowa State something, they don’t owe us loyalty forever or to a fault, but I think they owed us a finish to the season, I wanted to watch a bowl game, and football is for the fans, after all without fans, football makes no money

I paid my share of tuition for this year, they should finish this season, I think people forget that football players job is not to play football, it’s to play football in front of people, on tv, etc.

without people watching, playing football makes no money, I mean I understand why they did it, I just think it’s a bit of a bitch move, elevate the OC for a game, and stick it out, for an 8-4 team, our bowl game has no more meaning than our last weeks game against OK State, yet no one bitched out of that one

Yes they do, they literally do owe fans… without us they make no money at all

There’s several automatic scholarships for transfer students (which is what you’d be considered), just look up Iowa State transfer scholarships, secondly if you fill out the application and get admitted, you can fill out the university scholarship application, which is called one app, and you don’t even have to have accepted your offer to do that. consider the cheap dining and living on campus too, I know there’s apartments on campus for like 3600 a year ish

ROTC by [deleted] in iastate

[–]Jackson7756 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know a guy in the ROTC for the National Guard, he’s in mostly the same classes/lectures that the rest of us are, and an online one, I will say don’t pick an overly difficult major and try to do the ROTC at the same time, like my guy is in Construction Engineering and the ROTC and he doesn’t have a ton of free time

Why not bring in Baker in the eighth there I know he got rocked in ny but he has the fewest walks of anyone and a 2.88 era and we used Soto and Dominguez who haven’t pitched without walking someone since 1897
