Our ages.
Our hot dogs.
Have any spare quality RB's? If so, we can trade you a transfer WR from OSUw.

That chart needs some context. What happened to the kids after they were arrested?
Did they stay at their original SEC school, or did they just transfer to Auburn?
Everyone is going SECSECSEC, I just want to know what the heck is going on at Wazzou? I get that there probably isn't much to do in Pullman, but still...
Just shady police departments targeting student-athletes. What are we coming to in this country when we can't be a minor, passed out in our car in front of a police station, with a bag of vomit between our legs?
On a serious note, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of those are weed-related arrests. From what I hear, the PDs over on that side of the state generally have nothing else to do, so they cracked down on weed smokers before legalization. Seattle PD always had bigger things to worry about, and hadn't been going after weed smokers except for in absolutely flagrant cases.
I'm trying to figure out what happened to Vandy, as they should be on that list just due to that one incident.

wow you guys are old, I'm probably one of the youngest members in this thread huh
Sometimes I forget you post in this thread and I'm like, "when did I stumble in to the Fire Emblem Thread?"
It's weird to go from Gaming to Off Topic.

Regarding Wazzu, it is probably alcohol and related public nuisance/disobedience charges. Eastern Washington has more in common culturally with south Alabama/Florida panhandle than the Puget sound.

I thought we had documented and catalogued every Orlando State graduate or student and this was our list.
Someone explain this.

Holy shit, that's two more of them. The world can't handle that many citronauts.
I'd say most of the arrests for each of these schools are for alcohol, marijuana, and public nuisance charges.

I did a quick perusal and it seems like the number one thing is being underage in bars. So it's not like FSU's recent problems there are an outlier in that respect.

nah, if this were the Fire Emblem community thread it would take over a week to go through a page
That is typically us in the offseason as well. It's just condiment talk that got us fired up for a few days.
Edit: condiments and the OSU fans' persecution complexes.
It used to be that North GA was the southern Atlanta Metro area up (still seems to be for most). Middle GA was anything south of that down to Columbus, Macon, and Augusta, with the rest being South GA/Coastal GA
Seems that Middle GA has grown to include the Dublin GA area a bit too and the southern part has split into southwest GA and southeast GA.

This one stood out:
LOL.
Wrong on two fronts. The NCAA doesn't recognize a football champion, and the system, while improved, is still far from "precise."

Yep. I cosign this definition.
The civil war between North Jersey and South Jersey is intense.
North Jerseyans = wannabe Nyers and ex Nyers;
South Jersey = Alabama's 7 extra counties.

We need a minimum 8 team playoff. Hopefully one day we'll get it
6 is what I want (I want four ... but I also want the current big 12 to die with all current teams in the big 12 having soft landings in either the Big Ten/Sec/or Pac).
6 would have given us Alabama, Ohio State, TCU, Baylor, Florida State, and Oregon and you couldn't dispute any of those six.
It's funny how such a small state is so different from one area to another.

I went to a summer camp thing at Wazzu the summer before 9th grade. The tour the current students gave us was mostly about places people got drunk and fell off a balcony or places people committed suicide.
I made sure to do well in school after that so I didn't have to go back to Pullman.

I don't think Baylor and Iowa State would have a soft landing anywhere. If there was a Big 12 fire sale, would any P4 conference open their arms when Baylor or Iowa State went up for bids?
It's due to Philadelphia's little bro complex and New York's arrogance, the old northeastern cities have a ton of personality, that completely dominate their metro areas (see Patriots whining about Brady in the Brady thread for example). Connecticut is just the same as Jersey but replace Philadelphia with Boston.
The state governments will get involved (.ie wasn't Baylor in the Big 12 due to political interference).
Iowa is already in another conference. ISU would be fucked.
Baylor *might* get picked up by someone because of their newfound success in football, but there are still no clear fits for them. Pac-12 wouldn't take them, doubt the SEC or B1G would either. Maybe the ACC if they get desperate?
Iowa State would have to join the MAC or something.
(I want an 8-team playoff, but I could live with 6.)

This is the most eastern Washington thing I've read in years. Bravo.

Which area sucks more in terms of livability? Eastern Washington, or Eastern Oregon? They both seem like soul crushing wastelands.

What leverage does Iowa have over the B1G? Threatening to leave? Delaney would respond with an email containing nothing but a link to one of those "bye bitch" gifs.

Eastern Washington > Eastern Oregon >>> Mississippi
I grew up in Mississippi. The poverty is unreal-sure there are some decent paying white collar jobs and associated suburban living,but once you out of those confines HOLY COW.

Technically... there is a DI NCAA Football Champion. It's just DI-FCS.

Eh GA for the Eastern part of the US is a large state so it makes sense that there might be more than just 2 regions IMO.

September '76 here. Please tell me there's someone else older here. Please.
Isn't GA the largest land state east of the Missippi in terms of land area? I know if you include claimed water areas, Michigan is the largest.

edit: nvm, Michigan has more land when you include the upper peninsula.
Georgia is probably the 3rd largest east of the Mississippi in land
Okefenokee Swamp Park is a national treasure.
True. Cumberland Island is one as well. I assume you're being serious.
