"A sluggish economy has left athletic departments across the Pac-12 scrambling to cover costs, and some barely afloat, according to records acquired by The Times."
The next article cracked me up. Obviously the writer hasn't been on Pony Fans!

"Texas A&M (Acquisitions and Mergers) summed up a madcap weekend of mind-numbing conference realignment confusion with a video-game win over Baylor in which the schools combined for 83 points and 1,151 yards.

Go Ponies!!!
