I think TV commentators are the most overrated thing in college football and am increasingly distraught that we do not have a stadium-sounds-only option when watching.

The team Jones is the President of is the only NFC squad not to have made an NFC title game this century.
So I appreciate his contribution to debunking the notion that wealth is correlated with competence.

I wonder if I’ve become Orwellian, bc I see being recorded in most public settings as a safety net. I’m good with there being a record of where I was and when.

Most “broken,” struggling people don’t become fascists. Fascism doesn’t provide a better life for most people who fit that description. The fact that anyone may be struggling to achieve a “reasonably satisfying life” cannot be an implicit attack on their values or politics. That is lazy.

We need a stadium sounds only option for all sports broadcasts. There’s almost no meritocracy in broadcasting, because if you want to watch the game, you’re stuck listening to whomever they throw in the booth.

Right. 1969-2024 counts as part of that metric.

1969 was 56 years ago. For comparison’s sake, that was eleven years before Mississippi State refused an offer to Jerry Rice.
Pretending like pre-1969 is representative of Notre Dame’s status quo approach to Bowl Games in 2025 is silly.

Maybe, but maybe Notre Dame isn’t classy or dignified enough to deserve the Pop-Tarts Bowl experience.

You’re the one who made the “every other sport” argument. You brought other sports into this discussion and now you’re objecting to the comparison.

There were so many rivalry games that proved this point last week. Eg: 4-7 Wisconsin at 6-5 Minnesota in an ugly game in the snow was kind of awesome.

Notre Dame’s basketball team accepted an NIT bid as recently as 2018.

That has not been Notre Dame’s position, historically. Are you calling for the abolition of all Bowl games other than the CFP or are you refusing to acknowledge you’re engaging in special pleading for Notre Dame?

Yeah? Then why didn’t they decline the Sun Bowl in 2023 on that logic? Or the Gator Bowl in 2022?
Haven’t won a title since ‘88 and act like a title is status quo.

They refuse to join a conference, and refuse a bowl bid. Every P5 school should refuse to schedule them. Let them reap what they’ve sowed and become irrelevant.

I’m not disputing your reasoning on that point. I’m saying Miami should’ve been ahead from the first release.

If only head to head mattered then FSU would get in over Bama. But for otherwise comparable teams, head-to-head should obviously be the most important data point.

Your argument implies that if people cannot get their needs met in the market then they should just die.
If you value market economics more than you value humanity, say it with your chest.
