Check out the big brain on Jim.

I know that’s supposed to be a clever attempt to spin the “hell, no, we ain’t paying the players!” position, but if this is the best Jim Delany’s got, I’d sure love to know what his SAT score was, because as analogies go, that’s incoherent.

    Jim’s clever attempt at wit is too clever by half, as one of my tax law professors once disapprovingly sniffed at a classmate.

    You know you’re off the mark, humor wise, when a tax professor cracks on you. That would be like being called bad at your job by Penn Wagers, for crying out loud.

    I think it’s a perfectly good analogy.

    By the same token, my wife asking me to take out the garbage is like asking the garbage man to give her a sexually unsatisfying night in bed.

    Do they have analogies on the SAT any more? I know they removed them from the GRE when I rook it a couple years back.

    Hey, I’ll tell you what. You can get a good look at a butcher’s ass by sticking your head up there. But, wouldn’t you rather to take his word for it?

    No, I mean is, you can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a butcher’s ass… No, wait. It’s gotta be your bull.

    I love all this Pulp Fiction dialog. So clever how you are working it In Bluto.

    Um, Jim. Professional athletes do study full time, at their sport of choice since it’s their job. How many pro players exceed NCAA practice time limits just watching film for the week?

      Don’t ask me where I read this, because my CRS condition gets worse and worser, but I read that the average college football player spends 40 hours a week on football during the season. I don’t know about you guys but I consider 40hrs a week a full time job.

    Oh come on. S-As are getting paid in education. Get it? Forcing them to take a paycheck would be like forcing Aaron Rodgers to take a chemistry final after a wildcard game. Yup, perfect sense.

    Hard to believe Delany played for Dean Smith. The man is about as opposite of Dean as it gets.
