Currie really hates basketball (WHAT NOW CAPTAIN CRAP?)

[captaincrap]

Deal with FSN is close. Credit should go to ADJC when done.

  good news

Did he rip Learfield's ass?

Yep, he yelled all the way down the hall for the Learfield dudes to get the deal done.

Meh, I like the different angle, but not enough venom. Keep at it, though!

I wonder what kind of poster CC would be if he wasn't busy being all insidery and stuff

probably close to _FAN but with more of an edge

cc, would you be able to later say how this was hashed out or maybe PM me the details?  I'm just curious how Currie came through here.  Hard to congratulate him without details.

I save venom for the actual dude (that's a cowboy/western reference, isn't it?) at nutPAKs.

Edgier than this:

!!!!STATS NERD ALERT!!!!

We've clearly kept our coverage teams vanilla the first two weeks in anticipation of our date in Manhattan.

Leave it to McCarney to come up with a stroke of genius like that.

I don't think so.

I mean like more on average. _FAN's zingers are a surprise death ray from space.

Couple things:

1. Ath Dept, and Currie specifically, are not at all involved in negoations. It is the job of the rights holder (Learfield / K-State Sports Properties) to negotiate on behalf of K-State, they are the ones making/rejecting offers.

Ooh, you're very close. Keep thinking!

We are kind of melting down about something totally different now, but thanks for checking in, CC.

If Ben Boyle gets shitcanned, I'd like to find a place for him at goEMAW.  Maybe he could be the EMAWprentice.

What changed from 01Sep2012 when you said Currie specifically was not involved in the negotiations to now him deserving credit for an agreement? Did he send a contract that both sides would be agreeable to via Western Union Dillon's Trash Executive Service?

i'm going to guess that he got involved with the negotiations.  this is rocket science so don't worry about looking dumb.

If you took from this:

"1. Ath Dept, and Currie specifically, are not at all involved in negoations. It is the job of the rights holder (Learfield / K-State Sports Properties) to negotiate on behalf of K-State, they are the ones making/rejecting offers."

That John Currie was getting ready to get involved and save the day, you are indeed a rocket surgeon and are way smarter than me. Apologies.

I wonder if currie offered to have KSU take a smaller chunk to get us the FSN deal done

[Trim]

Reported today that 3 other Big 12 schools got their 3rd tier deals done with Fox.  I'm glad Currie moved mountains to make us the 4th!
