Most of those are based on sustained history or long runs of success. The make-ups of most conferences are generally regional.

Do you really care about Indiana and Illinois? Arizona and Utah?

But to answer your post more fully, yeah, as a whole, that is a second rate batch of football schools, especially in terms of the "give a crap" factor." Who gives a crap about most of those schools?

Yes, millions of folks love fried chicken and watermelon, but trying to play coy about "why it's a perjorative" is a silly exercise. It's meant as a racist slight and always has been. Whatever the reason, it has been.

Bottom line, it's a stupid thing to say by Sergio. Cheeky or not, it's stupid and there's only one way to really take it. And let's just admit to ourselves, too, that European folks, quite frankly, are a bit more direct with their racism. Go read about the problems in European soccer, especially Italy, France and Spain. Heck, even players get nailed for direct slurs on the pitch in the EPL.]]> Big Chunk The Porch Wed, 22 May 2013 14:57:22 -0400 http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299188,299283#msg-299283 We already have that here http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299188,299283#msg-299283

FSU signed over the GoR. That's a done deal.

We did this apparently with no assurance that we'd get a major increase in revenues. We did it without knowing for sure that a network was going to happen.

We did it for...what? Why? That we MIGHT get more? Is that what we did, gave up the farm because we were told we might get more?]]> MrOsceola The Porch Wed, 22 May 2013 14:17:25 -0400 http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299206,299268#msg-299268 I have no problem with Tiger being offended. http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299206,299268#msg-299268 Mr. Blonde The Porch Wed, 22 May 2013 14:13:41 -0400 http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299206,299267#msg-299267 Who decided "fried chicken" is a perjorative against black folks? http://www.theterritory.org/phorum/read.php?5,299206,299267#msg-299267
