GF-72, you speak of welfare, the governments definition of welfare is as follows: "Receiving regular assistance from the government or private agencies because of need."
Last time I checked, WVU gets 594m and MU gets 174m. A difference of 420m. A simple coincidence that the Gov't hands more out to you than us.
A 3 for 1? Great, we'll get $150,000 - $200,000 per game in MoTown, and you'll get all the rest; I would assume that 60000 fans with an average ticket price of $25, equals 1.5m. That is a profit of 1.3m after our payout. This doesn't include concessions and parking etc. So more like 1.8m.
You call us welfare recipients? How about after a "proposed" 3 for 1 (which Eddie P can stick up hs a$$), that is 5.4m you make.
Sounds to me that you are either a corporate tyrant or a bigger dipper in the welfare system than your sister university.
Look what we have accomplished since 1970. We have risen from the depths of hell into a very respectable university and football program. All on about 29% of your budget from the government (174m divided by 594m). I call that effective and efficient.
I understand that WVWHO needs to put out the campaign that we offered a 3 for 1 and they refused, therefore, Marshall must be afraid to play us. On the contrary, play us equally and you’ll fall behind from a purely football perspective. Your conference is shot, and your bowl arrangements are falling apart. You need us, more than we need you.
Go play FSU, a former coach's team, who you burned in effigy until he left. I say after 300+ wins and 2 Nat’l championships he got the last laugh. I say congratulations for using the court system to get a BCS OOC game. WVU is the same school that had to beg and plead with the Big East to grant them full membership. Remember that?
How do you reconcile or even defend asking us for a 3 for 1, when Miami FL, Tennessee, VT, and KSU have all agreed to 2 for 1’s with us? I don’t see any of these programs jumping to play you? Miami doesn’t want to play you, VT can’t stand you. Tennessee? They laugh at you.
Since you live in a clouded glass house, I might suggest to stop throwing stones. All it will do is leave you with a black eye.
Moreover, I never once referred to you as a scumbag or welfare scum and I would appreciate that you stop referring to us in that manner.
