Recruiting Football Talk VIII

And Kobe wasn’t the kobe he’s remembered as his first 3 years. Harden shot 30% that series……

6 games with 7.7 ppg shooting on 38.7% FG = dominating

Never mind that in 4 of the 6 games he scored a combined 13 points...

For those that don't have epic D4H eyes... OKC lost said series 4-2 and Kobe (who got dominated) scored 23.5 ppg, 4 rpg, 4.3 apg...same Lakers team that eventually won the NBA championship.

The best part, that series was all about how good Westbrook played. He went for 20.5 ppg, 6 rpg, 6 apg shot 47.3% FG and 41.7% from deep. I actually watched a ton of those Thunder teams, that was one of the best young teams I've seen in awhile.

Lmaooooooooo, I’m not gonna say anything other than

“We only want the rich fans that never cheer to show up, we don’t want the regular fans who always cheer and can barely afford the games”


Don’t make me cancel my $25 membership

You know...those rich fans showed out for Saturday's noon game. Sadly we rarely get games that early or TBA would be one of the rowdiest places in the entire country to play!

With prices spiraling, gonna need another raise. I will say there is a limit to what I'll spend on tickets....and hotels, cars, etc.

Yeah looks like I'll be going to one game again this year.

I guess this is one way to get money from fans that don’t donate to the Vol Club or other ways.

“oh you don't want to pay for our memberships, well you’re gonna be paying it one way or the other”

About 90% of those rich fans look like Holly Warlick with their arms crossed for most of the game.

Those fans are useless. The student section needs to be behind the bench and those rich fans need to be behind the goal post till they decide they aren’t too good to cheer.

 

[peaygolf]

To end the 'back and forth' over LeBron?

Jordan > Le........nevermind.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

@Freak id like to propose a contest.

Winner of the NBA bball argument gets an all expense paid trip to Papermill Awful Waffle with @Weezer .

There is no end in sight

I mean once schools can get involved what did people expect? They really can only ask for more donations or raise ticket prices to fund any NIL funds.

Frustrating though when you see the profits made in the yearly reports, wonder where all that extra $$$ went if not back into NIL to keep stocking the rosters?

They pay the bills, they're not useless. Without them, students don't get free tickets.

Without the students and common fans, there wouldn’t be anyone in those stands.

They can do whatever they want, but it stupid.

 

[MemphisVol3]

Funny thing is, this is VERY plausible. There is a solid chance that CRB will retire after this season, given his comments about ZZ and his age. Not to mention that DW and Oats have the connection from Buffalo.

Yeah I think DW gave Oats his first HC opportunity. When the time comes, wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a name we haven’t heard a ton about though

The primary concern is that we don't want to price out the 'common fan' and thus, alienate them. That's a concern I have far beyond sport however.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

schwing.

Old goofy man at work always says "shwing!" when he sees a good looking woman. Where did he get that? Is it from some classic TV show or really old movie or something?

Then you want rich people paying the EXTEMELY high prices to offset the much lower cost tickets that we common folk buy.

well, that assumes there are 'lower cost tickets'. Now, I just need to become one of those 'rich folks'. The heck with you commoners.

I can't tell if you're joking about the first part....you think all ticket prices are the same no matter where in the arena?

It's from a show that was filmed in Canada via Public Access TV. Not well known, but popularized by children of 90's.

Party on Jackcrevol.

BOOM!!!!

 

[drvenner]

I went to my professors funeral, stood next to the casket and said:

"So, who's thinking outside of the box now, Professor Miller?"

 

[SSVol]

I sat courtside for the UF game. I can attest that they are not. I can also attest that some of the snobby rich folks were cheering just fine.

The populist outrage gets tiresome. Don't like how we fan? Pay what we pay and come show us.

 

[drvenner]

Interesting comment that i agree with..so in your opinion how many (legit) championships do you think LeBron has?…minus the bubble championship…

They're all legit brah. Pretty much by definition
