MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread: Stories, Tales, Lies, and Exaggerations

[RightSaidFred]

Stanford and Cal voted "YES" for Miami to join the AAU just a few weeks ago.

Guys, it's not hard to figure out why we would vote "YES" for them to join our athletic conference. They did us a solid when they didn't have to, and AAU matters a lot more than what confrerence you play football in.

Had to get a thought in before the weekend...Does Drew Weatherford Hate the ACC so much because he sucked playing in the conference? Sure, he had some numbers, but his W-L record was lousy and Ponder replaced him his senior year:

Are you sure?


"AAU membership is by invitation only and requires an affirmative vote of three-quarters of current members."

Thousands of catholic high schools throughout the country churning out ND fans.

At least we know a vote did in fact occur!

Something to keep an eye on...

Verizon reportedly talking to Disney about potential ESPN partnership

He got several things wrong. I still have respect for him, but he got multiple things wrong in that post.

Yeah, that'd be a bad look — even it was only a straw poll

Depends on how much one cares about football

 

[Rickd]

Stanford doesn't really care about football to any major degree. It's all academics. Christian McCaffrey commented "We played UCLA and I rushed for 243 yards in the game, we won, I rode my bike to the student union and went in and nobody knew who I was".

Disney and Apple have been each others side chicks for well over a decade since they bought Pixar from Steve Jobs and acquiring 49% (or 100% for that matter) is a rounding error for them. Eddy Cue (look him up) could be like you thought I cared about that tiny pac 2 thing lol

no idea how much they care about their hobby or not, we shall see

 

[Gi0logy]

Apple has a **** ton of cash to burn. Would be an interesting purchase.

ACC is such an after thought that they didn't even mention them. Oh............and F_CK ESPN!

Agreed. Like Amazon, they strangely haven't been super aggressive on this front (yet). Not sure if they're just being (overly?) cautious and/or waiting for the traditional competition for broadcast rights to burn themselves out. Maybe both.

I think Amazon is a bit gun shy...Things like their relatively abysmal Thursday Night NFL "broadcast"might be a reason.
