it IS more than that. the university's purpose - and the reason its granted non-profit, non-taxable status - is that it is a public good, paid for by the state, to educate its citizens and produce value for the state. that education and the fruits of it through research, development, and producing the next generation of talented americans is the reason it exists. not a football team. not a rock climbing wall. not a state of the art food court and gym. not a assistant to the assistant provost for student inclusion at the dental school. universities have lost their way in some many areas. the relentless pursuit of profit via the football team is just the most obvious example.

that was a schedule loss.
-
white hasnt been healthy for any length of time this season. i'd be wary about that.
-
ftfy freeman should take that job if its offered. the steelers are a sound organization even if they dont win every year.

From the athletic: potential TPE uses for the pistons and their $14 million exception. bobby portis kelly olynk luke kennard sam hauser max christie the only guys on this list who get moved, imo, are kennard and maybe christie. i dont want kennard unless there is no one else. he's duncan robinson without the try hard effort on D. he'd be hunted just like robinson is going to be hunted. christie i would take a look at, but ehat would dallas need to move him? a first rounder? is he worth that? i guess if there is no oyher alternative to use that pick in a trade...

that would be so dumb that i can see milwaukee doing it.

i think harris deserves credit for that. but i dont think he's blameless with what happened last year. his trade deadline acquisitions - something he has direct control over - were terrible. they contributed to losing. thus, he deserves blame for last year's historic collapse. probably more than he deserves credit for the prior year's amazing end of season run. your original post gives the impression that you dont think harris has done anything that has affected the team negatively on the field. if that is your assertion, i disagree. but i might be reading too much into your post. again, i dont think he deserves to be fired. on the whole, i like his approach and agree with most of it. we will have to see how the prospects progress.

blowing the division the way they did last year was failing on the field. especially since harris' additions at the trade deadline were big culprits on that failing. that's not cause for harris to get fired, but it should call his process into question, or at least review.

lavine should come cheap. like, what is sacramento going to include to entice me to take him?
-
if were af the point where we can all admit this is minor league football designed to make a profit for the supposed non-profit academic institutions, then i suppose its an improvement. it further waters down an already watered down regular season, but that ship has passed. in a world where their labor must be paid OVER the table, the universities need cash. more product for television is the easiest way to do that.

its a good thing the celtics never did an illegal screen.
-
good. its a UNIVERSITY not a sports franchise.
-
pettiti really has it in for michigan...
-
gross
-
tomorrow against boston feels like a schedule loss. day after sergei's retirement and back to back big games against carolina and montreal.
-
wow. what a horrible missed call! guess what carolina? makes up for that bull**** call on raymond earlier!
-
and they win it! this team loves overtime.
-
btw, before we trade a piece of the future for a rental or mild upgrade, remember this third period. this team cant compete with the real contenders when they turn it up.
-
detroit's on the pp but carolina looks more likely to score. i'm just hopong they can get a loser point.
-
come on larkin. another turnover at the blueline leads to a carolina break.
-
and now a 5-3...
-
bad pinch by simon leads to a 2 on 1 and then a complete **** call on raymond. horrible call. but carolina goes to the pp. even though its seemed like they were on a pp for most of the 3rd period.
-
gibson is the only reason this game isnt 5-3.
-
sheesh. carolina is embarassing them right now.
-
carolina turns it on and the wings cant keep up. 3-2 now. should be even more but gibson has been really good.
