Talking to a few buddies who post on ED, the question is If ED was a pay site would you pay and if so how much would you be willing to pay?
Me, I don't pay for any internet message boards and no offense to the "Agenda", I would not.
Maybe C34 and his 4 friends (ha, he did say he had 4) should start an addition and put all of the rumors and inside info for pay only?
Just saying.
No
What here is worth paying for?
You must be kidding......paying to read about how every coach at MSU is incompetent? That sure isn't worth paying for.
No
We already have a pay board- the EDSO board
If there's any of you out there willing to pay for my wonderful insight (haha), I'll set up a pay pal and pm you instead of posting on the main board?**
Why? Just a simple question. I've seen way more threads that suck Clint.Quote:

By the way, my wife and I go to the Square, first thing I see on a wall was a sticker Swag For Heisman! Long two days for me.
Thanksgiving will be divided now.
Should have had the rule in place my ex- Father in Law developed for his kids:
"Ya'll can go to college wherever you want- but I won't pay one dime for you to go to OM"
When I was divorcing his daughter- he reminded me to get that put in the court papers. One of the best guys I've ever met
so you let tsun out promote your own efforts. color me very unimpressed.Quote:

Before this thing gets out of hand, people should know that Basedog's daughter is a well brought up young lady who won't turn into some rotten person by attending OM. I've attended games with Basedog, Mrs. Basedog, as well as the recent recruit. Good folks with down to earth values and logic.
Of course I would never be able to stomach such a decision without bringing it up at the dinner table on every occasion. :-)
She should have held out for a loaner car or some $ for your bills. I'm guessing since she bit on decals and t-shirts, she doesn't read this board.Quote:

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to basedog again.
I completely agree with you and appluad you for it. I grew up and Arkansas fan. Went to every single game. My grandfather was on the National Championship team. My mom aunt and uncle all went to UA. I visited state with a friend for the Arkansas game as a UA fan and loved it here. Rest is history. Haha. I've actually messed around and turned my parents into state fans as well. They come to every single game including baseball.Quote:

I was watching and listening thinking "I can only imagine bringing in football recruits especially folks who don't know much about OM".Quote:

My daughter has been getting something from State about every 2 weeks for the past 18 months - and can't even apply until August since she is a rising Senior. That's just based on a visit and her PSAT score.Quote:

Well maybe the disconnect is on the campus visit then.Quote:

Told my kids they can go to any school in the world, so long as it's not in Oxford, MS. However, I could see how that would change as they get old enough to make their own decisions. I do think State is a better school overall and a better value, but OM has some programs that State doesn't have and vice versa. Sometimes they're a necessary evil.
Bollocks
I'm not paying to see a bunch of y'all act like dicks when I can see it for free.
