    Hy-Vee's weirdest business decision yet?

    Target did the same thing in Ottumwa, their store there was profitable, but not making enough money so they closed it down. Corporate greed at its finest, with little or no thought to how the decision effects the community.

    You want to rethink what you said earlier? You realize the BTN only plays the afterthought games and non revenue sports right? If the big ten wants to next media deal they could sell all the rights they want to to Amazon or Apple. The SEC could do the same. BTN owned 61% by FOX owns rights to...

    This says otherwise. Holding ALL HOME games rights sure sounds like BTN which is owned 61% by FOX is in control to me. Big Ten Network holds national broadcast rights to all of the conference's home football games and televises approximately 35-40 football games each season. Each team is...

    Its the distribution/services part that is paying the bill here. The B10 is in bed with FOX, they might sell some of their streaming services to Amazon or someone else in the future but FOX owning 61% of BTN is going to have a very large say in what happens and who gets those broadcasts. Do...

    FOX also now owns a controlling interest in BTN, the idea that they are going to allow the B10 to leave is fantasy talk from a big 10 homer. https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/2022/08/18/fox-big-ten-big-bet-on-tv-future-pays-off-with-1-billion-rights-deal/65409726007/

    They are already at 18 schools this fall, and you keep reading talk about taking at least two more from the ACC, that puts you at 20. So, you are suggesting that after hitting 20 they will stop? What happens if ND decides they want in, the B10 tells them to pound sand and turn them away? The...

    KU wants the B10, that would be their preferred league, if the B10 does not want them and the SEC comes calling they would jump it would be crazy not to. Every school is worried about being the next Washington St./Oregon St. and want to avoid that at all costs, the money is just not going to...

    True they added Penn State to get there and then even it out when they added Nebraska. But they also went ahead and added in pairs with Rutgers/Maryland, USC/UCLA and finally Oregon/Washington. Having an odd number in the league is doable but not what any league wants long term. If this next...

    If this is the last go around, they are not going to end up with an odd number of teams it makes scheduling more difficult, giving a team a slot off when the entire rest of the league is playing. They would take a team like KU, OSU or maybe even a TCU to fill out that sport, or look at a...

    Like the rest of the B12 schools the B10 and SEC have had better choices to take, so they took them over the remaining schools. Lets say after they have destroyed the ACC both teams need one or two teams left to get to a even number of schools for the conference and the remaining ACC teams are...

    If any school in the conference gets an offer from the SEC or B10 they are going to jump and would be crazy not to. Just too much money for any school to turn down not named ND. I think the SEC and B10 want the ACC schools, that is where they are setting their sights on now, and then after...

    Looking at the link I provided, it looks like basically every school, no matter the conference is spending money as fast as it comes in. The B10 is not any different spending wise as the B12, except most of them started with more money but they are still spending most if not all of it. No...

    Most of the schools in the conference was clearing very little money, TT made the most after expensive, but 4 or 5 schools were spending more than what they are bringing in. ISU cleared about 50K over expenses, if this would pass, every school in the conference would be in the same boat, needed...

    Not sold on up coming season(especially)oline again

    We need to start the season 3 and 0 in the out of conference part of the season, there is not a team on the schedule that is better than ISU talent wise, we just need to come out and be aggressive on both sides of the ball. ISU struggles when we lay back and do not attack the opponent. Stop...

    NFL: Kansas City Chiefs Thread

    Hopefully they do not make the same mistake and release him like they did with Hunt and get nothing from it. Let the league investigate and give the suspension and then decide what KC is going to do about it. The kid was on thin ice to begin with and now this second act may be all the Chiefs...

    West Virginia FB Visitor Section

    We were in section 100 when we went out 6 years ago or so. Right in the corner of the back of the endzone, decent seats. Be sure to lock up your parking before you go, they had quite a few lots down by the hospital, and a short walk to the stadium. Great tailgating crowd to be around, WV is...

    Neither am I; we saw them in Dallas last season and Atlanta the year before, my brother wanted my wife and I to go down to St. Louis with him in July. 3 game series with Washington I think, I told him I would think about it. But after figuring $300 to $400 for the tickets, $500/600 for 2...
