Also, the Michigan AD came up through the pizza business and still has a lot of dominos stock. He doesn't just view Hoke as an employee, but also one of his best and most loyal customers.

I am sure that that made sense in your mind when you thought of it, but it translates as gibberish in text.  Care to try again, in English this time?

I think you are slipping regarding your personal attacks. You were doing better when you implied I was a couch potato.

Nope.  That red herring still doesn't help make sense of your original post.

  I think plenty of people are capable of understanding the meaning of what I wrote. If you can't, maybe you should work at upping your reading comprehension skills.

I'm starting to think that the obvious (that this is a mere fat joke) is the answer, though I hadn't thought even you so juvenile and 90s as to make one.  It no longer maters, however, as I have lost interest in whatever it was that you were trying to do.  Nice job blaming your unintelligible posts on everyone but yourself, though.

Speaking of maters, my old neighbor keeps giving me tomatoes (I think he forgets he gave them to me before) and I have too many to know what to do with.  He gets such a kick out of giving them away, I'd feel bad turning them down.

Can 'en and sell them to Ohio State.  They pay a lot for tomato cans they can kick around.

ND and Ohio State schedule a series in '22 and '23.

Wow, UTSA looked so much improved. They deserved to win that game tonight.

I think that this game will be good for Arizona though. They won ugly, but they won.

Yeah, this sort of blows all their excuses about cancelling the Michigan series out the window.  They wouldn't even talk to Michigan about resuming the series because they "couldn't fit in a game against a Midwestern power team" and then they schedule exactly that, only not the traditional Midwestern power that has owned them five of the last six.

Not really. College football these days is all about shiny flashy new things that catch the eye of recruits. Ohio State - ND will probably pull a higher rating than the 95th edition of Michigan - ND, and that buzz matters more than what the hardcore fans think.

Not really.  The UM-ND game was the fourth-most-watched regular season game on TV last year.    When ND played OSU last time 'round (during a scheduled interregnum in the UM-ND series), the TV draw wasn't nearly as good.  Facts trump uninformed guesses.

Sad, but true.  And a big part of why I follow NFL a lot more than college football these days.

Meh.  The flashy stuff catches the eye of the lightweights, and I am willing to allow the lightweights to be astonished and entertained by the way Oregon changes its uniforms more frequently than its underwear.  For the most part, there are enough decent teams with the right priorities to support all the serious fans there are.
