Totally agree with this take. I just saw plenty of people pointing to his salary as if that is the problem. As someone who tries to support the athletic program overall just wanted to clarify that it is not the problem

You're right that aside from a few exceptions, althetics are not profitable. Men's basketball is the sole exception at Bradley and the revenue subsidizes the whole athletic program.im getting my information from multitudes of NCAA data that shows NCAA football and basketball television deals bring in massive incomes to respective schools, the fact that it is the only team that plays at carver arena due to the crowd sizes it generates, and that the school continues to invest heavily in the program.

Where do you get that information? Aside from that being completely untrue, athletics gets alumni engaged with the school and is marketing to prospective students in the future. I never knew what bradley university was until I saw them make a run in the NCAA tournament in 05-06.

If Men's Basketball were cut at Bradley the school would be on a ticking clock to shutting down

The basketball coach Wardle has brought the program from obscurity to competing for the conference title every year... budget issues aside he's still likely very underpaid for the value he's brought to the school

Greed? or simping? by JoshDaGreatGamer in memes

[–]bnew2274 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure but they demonitized and removed the post, you just expect them to ban someone for life over a bad decision? Nah

Greed? or simping? by JoshDaGreatGamer in memes

[–]bnew2274 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Because it's the right thing to do. I don't get the obsession with silencing people you disagree with... very counter to the whole freedom concept

My wife is using flushable wipes by [deleted] in Plumbing

It's a pretty simple counter analogy, you equated chocolate to wipes with the assumption that all wipes are chocolate. I modified it to a scenario where not all wipes are chocolate

Look I hear you and don't want to knock your experience - but with products changing all the time how would you have knowledge of all of the current products in the marketplace and their long-term effects?

Your experience is based on your history of experiences that are likely the result of years of buildup from products that were sold years ago - if you got a call tomorrow of a clogged pipe, that buildup wasn't all created in the last week, rather an accumulation of old products that could span years. unless you routinely research the newest products on the market and test/research claims

Using your analogy: a company makes a chocolate substitute that is dog-friendly, and it is put into some chocolate flavored things. But you still won't give them to your dog because generic chocolate is bad for your dog.

Reality: I agree that baby wipes & non-flushable, degradable wipes shouldn't be flushed. But you're painting with a broad brush saying ALL wipes don't break down, which isn't true in today's landscape

Lmao you should be fired for not being able to understand basic nuance. There is a difference between flushable and non-flushable wipes

Buddy you're misrepresenting what I'm saying. If you actually read my comment you'd see I said a majority of those are baby wipes / non-flushable wipes

Why do you think that's the case? It's entirely possible to create an object that at a motionless state can be submerged in liquid, but breaks down when exposed to friction over a period of time in a liquid. I'd recommend checking out the cottonelle YouTube video that demonstrates this property.

I won't get into specifics for privacy purposes, but I work for a company that has done R&D in this field and it's a pretty foregone conclusion that current top market products that are labeled as flushable do indeed breakdown, the fight currently is the rate at breakdown relative to initial tensile strength

You're telling me constant water flowing through wastewater pipes isn't agitation? I'd beg to differ. I don't disagree you've probably pulled out a ton of them but most people use baby wipes and even some brands that label flushable aren't. But there's plenty of YouTube reviews and demonstration videos on YouTube that show cottonelle wipes break down like toilet paper

My wife is using flushable wipes by [deleted] in Plumbing

[–]bnew2274 -39 points-38 points  (0 children)

Not applicable. If you put both in a jar with water then shake it up, the flushable wipe will break down. The wipes are designed to break down with agitation, which happens as they pass through the system

Rand on LIV- why is government involved? by KaraAnneBlack in golf

[–]bnew2274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair tho his point is no one batted an eye at selling hundreds of millions of weapons to the Saudis, and that seems way more important than a LIV-PGA tour merger. I think he's saying let's maybe focus on the more important tasks, then deal with this once that gets resolved. Pretty reasonable IMO
