There is nothing better on this planet than a BMW vs Dax economics discussion thread.

[nicname]

Maybe not the best place to ask for this but I'm sure that Dax could drum up these figures in about 5 seconds.  Dax could you show KSU revenues for like the last 5-10 years. It seems that KSU athletics is really making strides.

I have a piggy-back question to this, although i'm not sure if you know the answer.  Does KSU athletics use accrual or cash accounting?  Does our 2011 revenue figure include 2011 FB TV revenue that hasn't been dispersed  to the schools yet or does it include the check we got last summer for the 2010-2011 academic year TV revenue?

We could really use an updated BTF rendering with the elite west side renovation in the pic.

I like how Beems has suddenly become a KU women's basketball superfan.

you think he'll thrown in women's sweet sixteen into every argument like he does the orange bowl?

to be fair, those two things are basically equally important in the mind of the average american sports fan

could the average american sports fan answer these questions?

1. who played in the women's basketball sweet sixteen in 2008?
2.  who played in the orange bowl in 2008?

Probably no to both if you're talking average american sports fan

Okay.  Just trying to help you sort this out Beems.

What would you rather have in your pocket after a year's work: $23 million or $0?

[Gooch]

Curious to how Beems thought this thread was going to turn out. I mean wow. Tina took less beatings from Ike.

[star seed 7]

Man you guys need to give Bill Self another raise.  He's keeping you from falling off the cliff.

haven't you been reading?  they can't afford it 

[OregonSmock]

For the last time, KU's profit is not $0.  It's ~$3 million.  As for your question, I would rather have $74 million to spend than $68 million.

Really doesn't matter what you guys think.  You're all a bunch of delusional grapes.  KU could win 43 out of 46 matchups with K-State and go to 3 Final Fours in the past 10 years with a national title, and you'd still think K-State had the better program.  Just an insane group of people.  Not as bad as Mizzou, though.

This thread is the equivalent of a k-state fan arguing on the fog.net that k-state has had a better tourney than ku because k-state beat a higher seed.

BMW is so rough ridin' stupid and adolescent.
 

[sonofdaxjones]

It's good to see bi-polar PepperJaxOregonHawkBMW back again, a brain that has somehow conjured up that we think that K-State is way better than ku in basketball out of the factual talking points that K-State is on a massively better financial footing, and is probably a little better all around athletic program right now, particularly in the major sport that matters the most.   But that's our bi-polar, angry 95% of the time PepperJaxOregonHawkBMW.

So with that, lets have another look at this!

Nearly $1 million will be spent on AV/Electronics alone . . . State of the Art!!

"Massively better financial footing" - pfffffffffffttttttttt.  K-State struggled to sell out their football stadium in the midst of a 10-3 Cotton Bowl season.  Your best year ever, and you're still 6-7 million behind KU in total athletic revenue.  When KU gets rolling again in football, we'll be back to top 10 in the country in total athletic budgets, just like we were in '08.  K-State is hoarding money and saving every dime after the mess that was left by Krause and Wefald. 

[sonofdaxjones]

I'm talking about massively better financial footing for K-state.

$100 plus million in new construction BeemsAngryOregonHawk . . . 70 plus skyboxes, 2 stadium clubs!!

 

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

It's so awesome that we're good at every sport, have tons of money and are building really awesome facilities.  So elite, so beautiful, so wonderful.

KU fans are so jealous.  They have nothing to show for their "revenues" other than facilities that look like the remnants of the Soviet block and a couple of really fat rough ridin' guys on retainer.
