women = time x money

Time IS money, thus

women = money x money

Money is the root of all evil, thus

women = SQRT(evil) x SQRT(evil) thus

women = (SQRT(evil))^2 thus

women = evil.

LOL!!!!!!

Love it!!! All the non-bcs-BS teams deserve that & nothing else. They (our administrators) refused to fight the cartel so enough with the whining. This is exactly what they deserve!!

I understand your many meanings, your humor, cynicism and more. There's a lot of politics to it all. I know you have experienced a lot of politics being a world class athlete, an olympian and more.

$1.1M for TCU versus $180k for SMU


TCU takes 6.2$ TOTAL.

That's a nice start on funding for the stadium improvements you guys are planning on.

So, sexism is ok, then? And racism is exclusive to males? Emily, you and avi make an interesting pair.

Can someone else confirm that TCU received $6.2 of the $9.8 total given to MWC.

I've always thought of the BCS as indian-givers.

I'm pretty sure that $6.2m includes the money they got for actually playing in a BCS bowl...

Wasn't the payout for the Fiesta Bowl $17 million? Or was the $17 million the total for both teams/conferences? Not sure how all that gets divided up.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.
