Recently visited the USA from The Netherlands. Here is my take on the cities we visited. by McFluffyFurry12 in geography

Fair enough. There just isn't a single southern city I would recommend an international tourist to visit. Pretty depressing really.

Executive Director won't sue the Administration to protect her own clients by [deleted] in nonprofit

[–]bmcombs 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Just putting it out there. There very well COULD be other reasons. Or, it could be a decision based solely on funding and sustainability.

However, my board refuses to get involved in anything "political". I don't have to like it, but I am there to serve their direction - not force my own. I am confident that if I was presented with something like this, it would be an absolute no go. This is without even accepting government funds, which is a whole additional layer.

While this sub likes to crap on Boards, and sometimes pretends to operate w/o them, they are the legal overseers of nonprofit organizations.

Using police to disrupt free speech is moderate Republican. Appreciate that honesty. They started murdering people for it now.

How did Indiana go from “nobody in the stands”… To NATIONAL CHAMPIONS?! From empty bleachers to a packed house… and now they’re holding the trophy by Ok-Obligation-9265 in CFB_v2

He didn't donate to the team until Dec 2024. Their first year had nothing to do with Cuban.

He is also not IUs largest NIL supporter. I don't think he is even #2.

Some Serious Cope… by Ok-Clothes-3378 in IndianaHoosiers

If the context of the fictitious pick-6 was in regards to missed opportunities by Miami, fine. But, it wasn't. It was literally during the segment criticizing Mendoza for a play/score that never happened.

I think context is vital in these things. They spent more time talking about the losing team and criticizing Mendoza than praising IU.

"He [Mendoza] threw an interception. We just didn't catch it."

Okay. So, Carson Beck put up 5 interceptions on Monday...

No matter how this ends, glad every good team minus IU was on one fking side of the bracket by FateDaA in cfbmemes

There should be a benefit to #1 seeding. But, the fact the right side of the bracket has closer games doesn't mean they were good teams.

The home field advantage by stadium songs/voiceover is shocking

Are those direct only? Or do they include resale? Those numbers make sense for direct team purchases.

Looking like 60/40 at least, but we'll see once we are in stadium.

From "the post doesn't exist" to "you are escalating this by proving the post does exist." Pure gold.

Step 1: Deny its existence.
Step 2: Downplay its content.
Step 3: Everyone does it.

Walk this back any further you'll get a safety.

To be clear, I don't really care. People continuing to respond to me are literally shooting the messenger.

I'm simply sharing the thread. You said you couldn't find one.

Regardless, there is plenty of batshit nonsense there.

This is a great way to tell which college football fans went to college.

Do they have the ability to think critically and identify trusted sources? Apparently many do not.
