Bureaucratspeak

So, I have a question.

What the fuck is a single-division conference?  I mean, are they gonna sell naming rights to the division, or something?  Kinda like Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium?

Seriously, sometimes I wonder if these guys even realize how nonsensical the words coming out of their mouths sound.

    Sounds like Mike Francesa’s comment regarding a single-elimination double-header.

    I’m surprised the name of the conference is still the Southeastern Conference and not the “Delta Airlines Southeastern Conference presented by Coca-Cola and Yellawood”

      Don’t give them ideas. Watching golf this past weekend and Jim Nanatz mentioned that Al Geiberger “won the Charles Schwabb Challenge” back in 1979. And I’m thinking, “no, he won the fucking Colonial”. These abominable naming rights are ridiculous and have run amok. We’re at the re-writing history stage of them now.

      Yeah, it is the sort of thing that we have gotten used to from TV sports commentators. They speak in lowest common denominator words, and then it bleeds into our brains. Sankey is smarter than that but he’s also talking to a large public, including TV types.

    Ummm… can you say Big 12 prior to 2017? Somebody shout “last call” and get these guys cabs for the ride back to the hotel. Can’t wait till the SEC championship game where the teams are decided by a coin flip because of identical records.

    Single division. It’s not every day that one can managed to earn the scorn of both English and Math teachers with just two words.
