    I’m hoping they address realignment. But maybe all the spots were recorded months ago.

    Did you miss the part about old rivalries crumbling?

    -So why are you leaving?

    -TV revenues. You just wouldn't understand.

    Natasha Marc needs her own Dr. Pepper spin-off series. I would watch.

    I'll check it out again. Thanks.
    I'm wondering if they'll devote an entire spot/plot to the topic.

    Its funny, my wife and I will watch a show and spend half the time saying, "Where did we see him or her before?"

    The kid who pulls off his mascot head I recognized immediately from one of my favorite Tim Robinson sketches about TC Tuggers shirts.

    The season-opening commercial is always teasers for the rest of the fall.

    Also, why do I know more about the world of Fansville than many of my blood relatives?

    Yes, she is fantastic. The brunette mom is a beauty, too.

    If you read between the lines, yesterday the CSU AD laid out how the Pac-2/MWC reverse merger will work. I'm sure he/ MWC commish Nevarez and the WSU AD and president had some good discussions on Friday night and Saturday. In today's Denver Post:

    “WSU and OSU need to buy some time to consider what assets remain for each university within the Pac-12. CSU athletic director Joe Parker said the confluence of those factors could lead to a “scheduling alliance” for WSU/OSU and the Mountain West in 2024.

    That allows them to bridge and understand their financial situation, try to maximize where they’re at, and then maybe pivot into the Mountain West (in 2025),” Parker said. “There’s also the question of, what’s the stronger (intellectual property)? The value of the branding of the Pac-12, or the Mountain West, or is there something else (new)?”

    Reverse merger, Pac-13 in 2025-26. That would be the best of a bad situation.

    Mountain West was always a dumb name anyways so acquire the PAC branding, even if it means going to court.

    Does the PAC-2 still have a Rose Bowl tie-in during non-playoff years?

    (Maybe the Rose is always one of the playoff sites AFAIK).

    The way I understand it, this past year was the last true Rose Bowl, and it involves a pair of conference interlopers anyway (Penn State, Utah). Last game involving traditional conference teams was in 2020 (Oregon-Wisconsin, which will soon be just another Big Ten West game).

    Won't have to go to court because OSU and Wazzu will be the only two members after 8/1/24 and they will control all the rights to the intellectual property, etc.
