The "BS" part of FBS

"If any of you are ever in Baltimore, get my info from that loser Ursus(I give you permission to gve out my name). I'd love to kick the sh*t out of some of you. We'll see how much talk you pu$$ies do face to face."

So I'm in Baltimore. You want to talk face to face. Tell me what I'm looking for at Security Mall.

If you want to meet, it won't be for coffee. At this point I'm done fucking around with you. If you want to do this for real, then be a man, PM me so none of these idiots are witnesses to anything. You're not worth losing my license over, so it's got to be discrete. Pick a spot. This won't be friendly, so don't kid yourself into thinking I'm bullshitting. I'm not. I'll wait for a response.

PM sent.

You just can't stop. It's kinda like you with pork rinds, AZGriz. Once you get to stuffing your face with a fat-fingered fistful of rinds, you can't stop until they are all gone. Yummy.

Similar to your problem with alcohol huh? We all have our crosses.

Yes, and yours is a teeny tiny little penis.
The words, "Is it in yet, sweety?", must really haunt you wherever you go. Try to just get one side of it next time.

That's a good tip Opie. I wish you had told me that after asking "Is it in yet, sweety?".

I don't usually even try and nail professionals such as yourself so thanks for the help.

[OpieGSU]

Sure thing, little guy. It's a well known fact that you pay for it, yo. No game.

Well sure but at your rates I don't even consider it an expense. I ain't gonna lie to ya, you could charge double what you do and I'd still get change back from $5. The mint on the pillow is a nice touch too.

Ursus has to tie a sheet around him and his old lady to keep some friction going.

Nope. Swing and a miss. Pork rinds make me sick.

Another incorrect ASSumption, dOpie.

In terms of the average college football fan, or fan of the BCS schools, it doesn't matter if you are D2, D3, NAIA, FCS, or non-BCS team (MWC excluded) you are all the same.....zeros

This just isn"t true. In truth, the average college football fan thinks that if you are FBS and on ESPN, then you are bigtime. The average college fan also thinks that D-III and FCS are basically the same thing.


I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying that the perception of the average american.
Now, that said, are people equating Notre dame with Middle Tennesee? Of course not. However, they at least know that Middle tennessee is on the low end of the bigtime, when they see them playing a thursday nighter on ESPN, or being part of capital one bowl week, etc.
Christ, you all know exactly what I'm talking about. How many times have you tried to strike up a conversation about I-AA/FCS football with people in your office or school, and their eyes will instantly glaze over like you are speaking mandarin?
That's the perception problem that FBS schools(even the low end ones) don't have to deal with.

There is immeasurable intangible value to being FBS as opposed to FCS>

This season Mid Tenn will have ONE ESPN televised game, on ESPN2. A 2nd game IF they make a toilet bowl.

Heck, last season on ESPN/ESPN2 UD was 3x, Nova 2x, EWU 2x, UNH once, ASU once, GSU once.

FIFY

"Fixed it for yourself ", you mean. Look if you want to ignore reality, then that's on you. t's unfortunate. The fact of the matter is that FBS football is perceived as "division I" to the average american. The games are on TV, it's on sportscenter, and they can bet on it.
FCS, on the other hand, is small potatos to most people, including most people who have degrees from FCS schools!! This is the reality of the hierarchy of college football, and the perception of average fans. Sorry, but your delusions of grandeur about the FCS are a little pathetic.

Say what you want about the Sunbelt, but it's head and shoulder's above any FCS conference. Compare your FCS school's facilities with any Sunbelt school, and you'll see a huge difference in favor of the Sunbelt. Does your FCS conference have a contract with ESPN like the Sunbelt does? Of course not. These are the dfferences, and they mean something in the real, non-messageboard, world.

Out of 36 Sun Belt league games, only 3 are televised by an ESPN channel (ESPN3 doesn't count, as those are only broadcast online and a lot of folks can't get (including myself)):
FIU @ ARK St Tues night ESPN2
Troy @ FIU Tues ESPN2
WKU @ Mid Tenn Thur night ESPN2

Televised OOC $ games vs BCS:
-FIU @ Louisville Fri night ESPN
-La Monroe: @ FL St ESPNU
-FAU @ Mich St ESPN
-WKU: @ UK Thur night ESPNU

# of times Sun Belch teams will be televised by an ESPN channel (keeping in mind that a lot of people who have basic cable don't get ESPNU)
FIU: 3
WKU: 2 (one is ESPNU)
Troy: 1
Ark St: 1
Mid Tenn: 1
LA Monroe: 1 (ESPNU)
FAU: 1
La Lafayette: 0
North Tex: 0

[BDKJMU]

The MAC in terms of their TV you'll find similar to the Sun Belch. In terms of attendance last season comparing them to the CAA:

Delaware - 20,684
Temple - 20,515 (in an NFL stadium)
Central Michigan - 20,448
Old Dominion - 19,782
Toledo - 19,333
Ohio - 19,046
Northern Illinois - 17,760
Georgia State - 16,750
James Madison - 16,597 (and we know this is is going to shoot up to around 20k)
Kent State - 16,152
Eastern Michigan - 15,885
Miami - 15,519
Western Michigan - 14,255
Bowling Green - 13,306
Massachusetts - 13,005
Buffalo - 12,981
William and Mary - 10,782
Akron - 10,185
Ball State - 8,947
Richmond - 8,567

I've seen a few of those Tues night ESPN2 MAC games on TV with their mostly empty stadiums and it looks pretty pathetic.

Despite what Opie claims, as far as the bottom 2 non BCS I-A conferences, the Sun Belch and the MAC, most college FB fans look at them the same as they do I-AA- the same level of irrelevancy.

As far as most of the college FB world is concerned, everything not BCS is BS..

Even if Opie does not realize it BDK JMU, clenz, you, and myself, with little effort have grabbed him by his insignificant nipples, given them a slight tug, and tore them from his even more insignificant chest.

We then threw them on the ground and stamped on them. Then we let a dog chew on them like beef jerky for a few minutes. Then we threw them on the ground again and urinated on them while not gazing at each others manhood.

Opie, your nipples are over there in the corner if you need em'.
