Quotes from Kevin Sherrington
Now that Bob Bowlsby has gone Network and essentially declared he's not going to take ESPN's money a
Because as fun as it was to see ESPN called out for its excesses, you've still got to pay the bills.
These are the words of a fool who is long past his prime.
The mistake Kevin is making is to assume that the media pays the bills. They don't. The schools and the fans pay the bills. That's why soccer is a global sport. Because children in every corner of the globe want to wear that jersey. Whether rich or poor.
The second flawed assumption he is making is that the league itself is the attraction and that simply pairing up two schools equals success. It makes sense that he thinks that way, he's just trying to get a good seat in the stadium and anoint himself an expert. He's wrong in that too.
The problem is, no one wants to lose. And schools like Texas are too scared to play anyone even, they want slanted matchups with undermanned teams and they want free reign to price competition out of the market. Not only are fans fed up with it, they won't support it. Regardless of your education level, people can spot a fraud. Fifteen seasons of telling us Texas is back and they think we cant see through the manipulation?
It doesn't bother me that Texas and Ou want to leave. It saddens me that a sport that once thrived in this country, is being torn apart by a few greedy administrators and a corrupt network.
This isn't in the best interest of the State of Texas.
