Thad selling SMU again to the National Media...
The economic shockwaves caused by an NCAA 'death penalty'Chiotakis: What happened to Southern Methodist after the NCAA handed down the death penalty?
Matula: If you look just at the conference that they could have been in, the Big 12, it averages out a pay out of $10 million a year per school. Now the entire conference that SMU is currently in, Conference USA, the pay out for the whole conference is $3 million. You're looking at 15 years, that's a $150 million and then you're not even looking at television deals and what you're getting at the gate. I think it's also important to look at what it's done to the city of Dallas and the extra revenue that you've lost from hotels and people coming in and shopping and all that kind of stuff that goes around a game-day weekend.

Good stuff Thad!

Ok, really. Can we can some of the political tone. The over bashing of the prez and elements of the govenment cn get old. Both sides have crap. Mrydel, you really do know better right? NPR recieves no federal funding. Me, I support NPR and NPR stations.
Go Ponies!

Oh, I am relaxed. Waiting to get off work and have a drink, or five. Sorry, but too often remarks here do get a bit high handed. Thanks for your reply.

What you do not know is that Thad and I are fierce political enemies so if I can ever jab him I will. It was in jest and aimed, in jest at Thad. Sorry if I offended you or anyone else. Except Thad of course.

mrydel - I thought it was funny; no offense taken.
Good Job Thad, as usual.
