I think we should be informing local government officials, and the media, in each of the host cities, that we are actively discouraging foreign visitors from making the trip here as spectators.

Absolutely delighted by Indiana University’s resounding victory over U of Oregon tonight! I know it’s inconsequential in the grand scheme, and that I’m being petty, but the motherDuckers helped screw my alma mater out of an entire conference (Pac 12), so I make no apologies.
