I've been reading one of the Oregon fan boards for a while. Fans from other PAC schools post there as well, primarily Oregon State and the two Washington schools. Most of the posters seem to be middle-aged or older without the **** that sometimes goes on in here. In other words, they stick to the topic and not delve into the lineage and ancestry (and other things) of the poster. They don't use the football board for political shots, either. Bottom line, an apparently legitimate group of people.
HOWEVER......I have seldom seen a bunch of people that think so highly of themselves. They almost put the Texas arrogance and entitlement to shame. They are convinced that the package they get will far exceed that of the Big 12 and that they are far superior to anyone other than the B1G and the SEC. They see the streaming as the wave of the future and they are getting in on the ground floor, versus seeing it as a last resort. Their delaying has already screwed SDSU, although SDSU did a good job on their own.
Who knows, there may be some idiot media executives out there that way overpay for games that are, other than a few, snore-a-thons, and they will get a great deal, but that seems to fly in the face of facts. For me, I would sure like to buy them for what they are actually worth and sell them for what they think they are worth. I could fill up a lot of food banks with that profit.
