This is the best point anyone has made about NIL spending. All year I haven’t been able to comprehend why “$20 million roster” was ever used as an insult and how that’s possibly the most expensive roster.
A lot of people think it's ridiculous that Ohio State spent $20 million on their roster.
I agree. That's a bargain. A team this good is obviously worth way more than $20 million in this sport, but everybody's still stuck spending big on the wrong things.

Ohio State's $20 million bargain
Everybody seems to think it's ridiculous that Ohio State spent $20 million on their roster. So do I. There's no way a team this good should cost that little.

It seems a more compatible combination is completely #waterproof with options for venting warm air - this effectively removes the need for #breathable and if done well, can keep you dry in a variety of conditions. Interesting! #WeatherReady #OutdoorGear #AdventureEssentials

So I've been doing some research and building an opinion that #waterproof and #breathable are fundamentally incompatible goals in modern raincoats. Small holes in the fabric to provide breathability either leak or are clogged up, waterproof coatings to protect the small holes wear off

Looking for ideas - what's your practical gear for blocking wind and rain when watching sports outside? Tired of 'waterproof' jackets leaking...there must be a way to solve this! #soccerdad #waterproof #fan

I'm tired of the reviews that say 'this raincoat is waterproof because I wore it in the shower for 3 minutes and it didn't leak'. Every waterproof/breathable raincoat I have worn in steady rain while watching a game has leaked. Every one. #soccerdad #waterproof
