Re: People at work
This site is blocked where I work. Too many people were spending too much time on it, and they track internet activity.

Re: Spurrier Wants SEC Title
So do I. If cheering for the guys can get them there, I'm ready to help. Shoot, I'll bake them cookies and brownies.

Re: sleep paralysis
It happens to me fairly regularly, but I have learned to control the dream. I replay it over and over until I work out a good ending. Then I wake up, and I can move. I used to fly quite a bit, but...

Re: Spurrier, SEC Deal and paying players
This is a great idea. Why don't you relay that to Clowney, Shaw, Thompson, Ellington, Byrd, Cann, and the rest? They can quit playing football and get a job. Of course, the games will suck again.

Re: Spurrier, SEC Deal and paying players
You highlighted only part of that sentence. I specified "in the last year." I believe that those others plays have been gone more than a year.
I have never told people who work how they have to...

Re: Paying Student Athletes
So, rather than give the money to the kids who are actually working and bringing it in, you would distribute it "fairly" among those who earned no scholarship money at all? That would include those...

He does know how to play the game, but I think he sincerely believes that his players should receive a little more money. He knows the situation better than we do, and that's what he thinks is fair....

Re: Paying Student Athletes
I'm not buying tickets to a game to see you do whatever it is you're doing, so you don't generate money.
I keep seeing that our athletes should stop whining about not being paid. I haven't heard...

Re: Paying Student Athletes
If we can ignore the second amendment to the Constitution without taking it through proper channels, I'm fairly certain someone can find a way to do what they want with these rules.

Re: Paying Student Athletes
Good to know this.
And BTW, I got married when I finished my fourth year of a five year degree, but then, I overloaded my classes for a couple of semesters, and I had time to work that year.

Re: Paying Student Athletes
Huh? I never said they lived in the slums. Their housing is provided, and it's nice. They just don't have much money to spend.
If they had time to work and refused to, I wouldn't be in favor of...

Re: Paying Student Athletes
And if you're redshirted, that's five years of no job. What if they want to get married? Sorry, can't do that. You can have children, but you can't afford to get married.

Re: Paying Student Athletes
Being a female doesn't preclude you from having a girlfriend anymore.
I meant a decent stipend. For the time they put it, they don't even get minimum wage.

Re: Ref dies after HS player attacks
Seriously? Six months for killing a man whose children no longer have a father?
As violent as this kid is, perhaps he should be off the streets.

Re: Paying Student Athletes
You seem to be confusing academic and athletic scholarships. Some of our athletes have both, but it's probable that most don't.
I'm sure you would have liked to have played a sport. Not everyone...
