Wow... you said it :lol:
Wasn't it our allsome ex CU president that said that was a term of endearment in some cultures?

Wow. What passes as news...
An opinion of a guy with now influence, gets picked up as an editorial sorta piece. That gets picked up as something factual by an idot in Oklahoma who can't be bothered with research or facts, and that article gets cited on another "no-think piece" on the same misguided topic. Impressive citation...

the medium sure is (are)? slacking these days huh
As usual, I'm unable to tell if you're ****ing with me, or if you're just stupid. I haven't ruled out a little of column A and a little of column B.
I'm pretty sure she said it was a term of endearment in Chaucer's time.
Some of Hoffman's critics, including Coffman, said she had a tin ear for how some of her public statements were perceived by the public. He cited a 2001 legal deposition in which she said a vulgar term for a part of the female anatomy could be considered a "term of endearment."
Jenni Carlson had to re-write the article and the editor states the following:
"To clarify, the Pac-10 chancellors and presidents voted to expand the conference and extended formal invitations to Colorado and Utah. The only votes of the university leaders that remain involve issues such as scheduling and divisional structures. "

Unfortunately, this "retraction" only appears on the news-not-ok website. Checked the hard copy today, and suffice to say, the correction isn't there. Unless, of course, they put the correction in the usual place -- section G, want ads, somewhere between lost cats and weekend yard sales.
The level of ignorance on this is really amazing.
The local media folks here in Oklahoma are convinced of two things:
1) That Colorado has seen how much money the powers-that-be in the remaining Big 12 are going to make from the TV contract, and wants back into the Big 12 to get a piece of the pie....
2) That the Pac-10 television contract will be worse that the current Big 12 contract, and Colorado will make a lot less money in the Pac-10 under the new TV contract than they make currently in the Big 12 contract.
They are convinced that Colorado is trying to get out of going to the Pac-10, and trying to get back into the Big 12.

Isn't Bleacher Report like Wikipedia? Anyone can get an account and post some ****...
I'll probably want to kick myself for thinking this later, but after all that's gone on this offseason I find myself wishing that the refs hadn't put time back on the clock and that the Nubs had won the Big 12 Championship last year.
Have I gone crazy?
....Have I gone crazy?
My experiece has been that both Nebraskans and Texans are genuinely nice people, as long as the conversation is about the weather, travel, kids, etc. But, if the subject of football comes up, they both instantly morph into arrogant ***holes.I still hate nebraska far more than Texas. But really hate Texas. I'm not just talking about the school either. Really, it's the Texans that I hate. All of them.
