I stoped by for my periodic update on UConn news and am faced with a marathon thread titled ACC. Before I get started can someone tell me if it is worth reading?
It offers little hope that we are going to the ACC anytime soon, if that's what you are looking for. If you would like to read about Carl Spackler's stream-of-consciousness worldview, come on in.I stoped by for my periodic update on UConn news and am faced with a marathon thread titled ACC.

If you run for President, I will vote for you just on the basis of the genius of your post above. I'm just glad I didn't have any beer in my mouth when I read it.Here are the crib notes:
There are rumors the Big 12 is meeting with some acc schools about switching conferences
It won't happem
I have first hand knowledge that it might happen, the ACC is ripe for poaching, and there have been secret meetings.
Who are you?
Trust me I know
I don't believe you
Whatever
I also know that UCONN turning down the series with Notre Dame decreased UCONN's value to ESPN and the ACC. UCONN may allready be in the ACC if they did not turn down the series.
No WAY
Yes WAY
I knew that was a bad idea
No you didn't, only me and BL knew it was a bad idea.
The ND series had nothing to do with us not getting invited to the ACC
It was a factor
I've said it before and I will say it again.............

Thanks for the summary. I was wary of a topic that went on for soooooo long.Here are the crib notes:

Awesome job metsfan !!
How about the Wilpon crib notes
this summary is clearly behind. seems like mets didn't get to the last 4 chapeters of the book.
Wow, you must live a sad little life to have to blatantly lie to feel good about yourself. Are you a middle child? Did you not get enough hugs or attention as a kid? Just b/c no one pays any attention to you on the board, doesn't mean the new guy who gets the attention doesn't know what he's talking about. I took a dead, 1-page thread and turned it into a 26-page discussion on realignment, TV contracts, etc. Every time someone had a question I answered it. If I didn't know, I said I didn't know. If it was my opinion, I said it was my opinion. If it was based on facts garnered from network or conference relationships, I said it was garnered from network/conference relationships. If the info came from higher-ups in my company, I said as much. You don't like my take on the effect of passing on the ND series, fine. But, my take is based on 100x more ACTUAL inside information than yours. Doesn't mean I'm right, but I dang sure am not throwing out uneducated opinions like you & Carl. I find it sad that rather than actually discussing realignment & TV contracts like an adult, you wasted about 30 posts trying.......as desperately as you could........to out me as a fraud, just so you could feel better about yourself.My take on the thread:
Someone posts something about the ACC
New poster shows up, seems to know a little bit about TV contracts, then all but claims to have been in the room when every realignment decision was made.
Rest of posters perform message board fellatio on him.

I would actually love to see him try. If he weren't such an all-around nut I might actually vote for him for entertainment purposes.something about banning lol
I guess I'll have to keep this in mind the next time I want to click "like" on a post.My take on the thread:

When I get my vacation time built back up, I'd love to take a trip to the fantasy land you've created in your head. Glad to hear when you accused half the board of performing oral sex on me as a result of enjoying my insights, that wasn't personal.Doesn't worship FTI = uneducated. Got it.
I spent about a dozen posts defending my position. You are the one taking it personally.

My time here is done. Enjoy your little fiefdom, GPDIII.
