BCS leagues expanding - yeah?

Exactly. I'm guessing nobody has wanted to pony up the cash. Pun intended.

 

No lights at Cal's baseball stadium. Can't recall the year, but they "hosted" a Super Regional at Santa Clara.

 

I think it was 2011, the year they made it to Omaha. That was the same year the program was about to be eliminated for budgetary reasons and then alumni and others rallied to save it with their donations.

 

Evans Diamond now has lights. I can't remember if it did when Cal went to the CWS, but the Super was also moved to Santa Clara because of capacity issues. Evans Diamond can only seat about 1,000 or so and there is absolutely no parking.

It will now have the distinction of being the shittiest college baseball facility in two P5 conferences.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

HAHAHAHAHA! [deep breath] HAHAHAHAHA!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Why do the people writing Dr Pepper commercials understand college football fans better than all the conference commissioners combined?

 

No shit. A scam would suggest there was an unwitting party. Everyone agreed to this no matter how onerous it might be.

The hyperbole coming from some of the national guys has gone well past tiresome.

 

Can’t we make a law that says a conference with a number in its name has to reflect the number of schools in it? If the dilemma is a different number of schools for different sports, that’s a you problem.

 

The problem is the Big 12 and Big Ten could end up with the same number of teams.

 

Those commercials have been consistently fantastic from year one.
Every other college football based commercial series have absolutely sucked - I am looking at you, Heisman House, or insufferable commercials with ESPN gameday crew.

But the Dr Pepper commercials only range from great to excellent.

 

Agreed. But what does it say when even one of the companies footing the bill for this sport is throwing shade at some of the lunacy we’ve seen off the field?
