Doubt we get Florida or UK - UT, KU, ISU, and OU are all probably above us on pecking order.  I think Florida and UK were both at home last year too.  Tennessee, Arkansas, or Missouri is more in our range.

South Carolina would please me greatly

Need more @'s from shalee and Claire and anyone else engaging in twitter.  Too hard to interpret the passive aggressive vagueness of these tweets.

OK i found it.  I tweeted at the belieghdat guy and he cited the report, which you can find here: http://www.ncpanow.org/news/articles/body/6-Billion-Heist-Study_Full.pdf

Method...

(4) College Athlete Market Value

At present, there is no formula to determine the fair market value of a revenue-producing college athlete in the sports of football and men's basketball.  In an attempt to experiment with such a model, we theorized that the revenue-sharing models that exist in the NFL and NBA, which have been arrived at through a collective bargaining process and with the aid of player representation, would provide a starting point on an estimation of what the value of revenue-producing college athletes in their programs.  In 2011, the NFL reached an agreement with players that they would share at least 46.5% of the revenue generated by the league, while the NBA owners agreed to a 50% revenue-sharing standard for its players.  Those standards were applied to the revenue reported by colleges' and universities' football and basketball revenues to better gauge the value of the college players that participate in these sports.

So essentially she made the following calculation: Football player's FMV=((total football revenue)(0.465)/(85)).

I'm still very skeptical about how she reached her findings (avg. player is worth 178k) and the capability of smaller FBS programs to fund an endeavor like this, when practically all teams already operate in the red.

Plus she's also completely ignoring the variables that allow NFL players to leverage for 46.5%.

Also the small problem of paying all players the same regardless of contribution.

In all seriousness... Couldn't believe I did it. Wasn't really looking to max out yesterday, just got in a groove and kept adding weight. Would like to get up to two plates by the end of the summer.

What would that be, double your body weight?

If you can bench double your body weight you have arrived in Swolieville.

Yea no doubt, seeing a 112 lb guy throw up 225 would be a moment for me.

I was able to go to a mavs game against the bulls this season and sit in the first few rows.  If you like basketball at all I don't know how you can't love the NBA.

Ask him why his money is more expensive than the other guy.  Let him struggle to answer it and then let him know you will be going in a different direction.

When rape is imminent, relax and enjoy it.

You got the Bob Knight quote wrong. His advice is for when rape is inevitable. 
When rape is imminent, you run, obviously.

Well this is embarrassing.
