    OT: Cannabis sales opening up in NJ

    it's a beyond ridiculous price. that's $480 an oz for something that cost $35 oz for yrs till Reagan came along. and yes, it's better now, but you also have huge economies of scale and mass production now compared to then.

    NIL District Court Decision- Plaintiffs Seeks Schools and Conferences to Make NIL Payments NCAAA Proposals Post #17

    your industry knowledge is so lacking that you have no business even in the debate. the same with your grasp of what is and isn't a monopoly. the networks in the bundle, all of them, demand 100% carriage, which forces the all or none of every channel within the bundle. it's literally all said...

    save your BS. the fact that consumers can bring a complaint, doesn't mean they should have to, or have any chance of winning against multinational conglomerates with infinite resources. we have an FTC for a reason. and Wall St captured it for a reason. (just as it did the FCC). and news...

    wrong. the networks themselves contractually mandated the bundle through each mandating 100% carriage, not the pay tv providers. and had the providers created it, (with all the competing providers creating the exact same bundle through the greatest coincidence in history), it still would...

    what a total crock. a company can require you to buy more than one of it's products, to buy any. but the instant said company enters into an agreement with all it's competitors that no one can buy any company's product without also buying the competing product of all it's competitors, they...

    and yet neither could make a credible case in the slightest that the forced pay tv bundle isn't an anti trust violation. nor could either name so much as one other industry where this sht goes on, as i challenged them to do. and there's a good reason they didn't and couldn't. competing...

    well Miss Rosannadanna, the post of mine you referred to was concerning the pay tv bundle, not player compensation.

    still waiting for any of you guys to make your case. or pointing out any other industry where this happens. good luck with that. obviously you have nothing.

    i don't consider pointing out that someone is wrong as a "personal insult", nor should you. if 711 or you want to make a case for why competing entities contractually entering into an agreement where none can be purchased absent the purchase of all isn't anti competitive collusion and an anti...

    obviously you don't, so spare me your BS. i have my own expertise as well. if you can't recognize the forced pay tv bundle as a monopolistic anti competitive anti trust violation, then you have zero idea what an anti trust violation is.

    you obviously have absolutely zero idea what an anti trust violation is. it would literally be impossible to be any more of a monopolistic anti competitive anti trust violation than the forced pay tv bundle, where competing entities have entered into contractual mandates that none can be...

    total BS. any salary cap and roster limit is a blatant anti trust violation, on top of the monopolistic negotiating cartels. but like i said, sports have long been exempted from these anti trust laws in the name of competitive balance, which i have no problem with. that said, the pay tv...

    Why doesn’t D1 football use radio helmet communication?

    would love to see the NCAA mandate players call their own plays, on offense and defense. make it a part of the game for players along with execution. the coaching play calling industrial complex has jumped the shark and gotten beyond ridiculous.

    there is no gray area in what i mentioned, they are blatant anti trust violations. that said, sports has long been officially exempted from anti trust to preserve the competitive nature of the sport.. that said, what's absolutely beyond criminal is the pay tv bundle that's a beyond belief...

    NIL needs gone ASAP. and as long as it exists, there literally is no way to divorce it from pay to attend, that can't be circumvented in 2 mins. replace NIL with some in house payments to athletes that schools have some control over, with a hard cap. this isn't rocket science...

    virtually every roster rule the NCAA, NFL, NBA, NHL, has, is an anti trust violation. conferences made up of schools bargaining as a cartel with networks is an anti trust violation. and USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington, didn't join the B10 to play midwest and east coast schools, they did so to...

    Pac12 dissolution discussion

    corporate consolidation 101. "expansion" always was and is about "consolidation". never about "expansion". with the goal to kill off other major conferences as competitors for media rights money, and doing so while handing out the fewest "shares" possible. and by "conferences", i mean...

    OT: Dog Rescue

    the world hasn't changed that much, and small and medium non aggressive breeds haven't changed either. no idea why you assume it wouldn't work now as it did then, why you would have a near mental breakdown at the suggestion it would, and so vehemently attack someone who also lived it, many...
