That’s pretty warped when you sit back and think about it.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired I suppose.

Rich people do such stupid things with their money.
That’s why the Government should take it.
Take it all, and just give them back what they need so they don’t waste the rest. So they’ll be fine.
The Government could do so many good things with that money. So many more people would be fine then, not just one greedy one. Win win.
Besides, they probably scammed people out of that money to begin with, so it’s not really “theirs” to begin with.

I’m not sure if this is an amazing tongue in cheek comment about government waste or if you are being serious and just that uniformed.

I’m guessing the first one so well done on the humor!!

thanks.
the campaigns have already started. and those who won't vote for Trump because of the visceral revulsion, need to understand exactly what the Democrats want to do to America.

Lordy. I'm not even a Democrat but that is...not exactly an encompassing view of what they want to do to America.

Well, Bernie Sanders wants to do that, granted. He's an unabashed Socialist.

Warren is a hardcore anti-trust extremist who is pretty much at the polar opposite of Bernie economically; she wants to take a hatchet to all large structures and break them up into tiny little ones and let small business rule America again. Well, except for health care. There she seems to agree with Bernie for whatever odd reason. Don't ask me why.

Pete Buttigieg is a pragmatic centrist who in another lifetime - which is to say, about two elections ago - would have been a moderate Republican.

As for Joe Biden, I don't think anybody knows. Including Joe. What Joe has, is a winning smile he can point towards whatever camera is in the vicinity. If he has anything resembling an actual policy we haven't seen it yet, and considering the dude is like, 76, I don't think he's going to start now.

It's great that you can be so informed about the Dims, as Tulsi Gabbard is the ONLY Dim candidate that I can tolerate. Some things in life I detest so much that I refuse to even acknowledge that they exist. The Dims are in that group.

The government can't get out of its own way and can print all the money it wants anyway. I agree they obviously made a crazy decision....but for heaven sake, you DON'T give it to the freaking government.

Best guess is it was mostly Carl Domino's money. He's the big wheel there in the FSU booster food chain.

But Chump beat Kirby.
If FSU beat Georgia at Georgia and took their shrubs, would they have fired WT?

with no strings attached.

Very misleading.

FSU won't write a check to Willie for 20 million next week.

1. It will be paid out over several years, not in a lump sum.
2. It will probably be negotiated down. Most buyouts are.

Yes, it is costing the boosters a boatload of money. But, it isn't quite as bad as it sounds.
