Exactly!

(Note from Mr. FishDuck: I have pinned this because of the nature of sports, social media and human nature these days, and what is contained in post No. 6 below) I remember the idea of good sportsmanship being drummed into us starting in grade school. You weren't supposed to whine and complain if you lost, nor brag if you won. Sorry if this makes me a fossil, but I don't enjoy the trash talking, etc. in today's sports.

This will make me sound like a relic, but I think the lack of a local paper that at one time would have had pages devoted to the UO NIT is one factor. Even pre-game coverage on TV didn't seem to be particularly prevalent. Yes, it was the NIT, not the NCAA, but it was still post-season play. So a lack of marketing, be it from lack of funding or changing times, was most likely a factor.

And if their exams are over early in the week, they go home, and probably watch the game on TV from there.

On the one hand, I'd hate to see it. Basically, I hate change. And I don't want to see the demise of the PAC-however-many. On the other hand, it could mean games for Oregon would start at a reasonable hour, since the biggies in the big would not want their games starting at 10 pm or later their time.

One easy update to Matt Court arena would be to put up all the banners from all the past seasons. The one and only one up there looks lonely, and is barely visible. Current players may not know about past achievements, but many current fans do, and would probably enjoy seeing the reminders.

And where did he first hear it? Maybe the question could be put to an AI Chat Box?

I was kind of hoping for a woman president, but he certainly sounds qualified. Good luck to him as new president of UO!

Yes, it's a killer for non-revenue sports.

To me that means that PAC-12 are the spillover that gets mopped up and squeezed out over the late hours for a few drops of water. Or, to stay with nourishment comparisons, like crumbs being swept off the counter in order to put them on a plate for late-night consumption.

Unfortunately, I hate after-dark games. I sell my tickets to them, and the only ones I watch on TV are the Duck games.

My feeling is that now that Marcus is happily married and proud father to his new baby girl, he will decide not to continue to play football and will move on to the next phase of his life, whatever that may be.

Well, as long as Ruiz wasn't impacted...

Well, I just checked and I get ION. But I guess I don't understand the whole issue. Right now the PAC-12 network shows Duck games, but we see them on ESPN, ABC, Fox, etc. too. So, forgive my ignorance, what exactly does it mean when something has the rights to the PAC-12 games?

How many streaming services are there? 200+?

Consider that this information is coming from The Post....

Or at least shorten them. Right now they last anywhere from about 2.5-3.5 minutes. On the other hand, when I'm at the game, that does give me enough time to zip to the bathroom or the concession stand and get back in my seat before the game starts up again.

I wondered about this. On the one hand, the charges were so serious--on the other hand, maybe it would be more prudent to wait a bit to see if the DA would charge him. If it's just that there's not enough proof, that's one thing. If the DA decided that it's likely he's innocent, that's another. Would he be asked to rejoin the team, and, if so, would he accept? Okay, just heard he's been exonerated. So, what happens next?

Thanks, good to know!

I just hope his guns were confiscated if he's out walking the streets.
