New NIL commission coming?

I have previously stated on these pages that I competed at WRA in the Southern Comfort Great Shooters Neft Hoop competition.

I was also a member of the 1988 Res Hall championship intramural football team and threw the only TD pass given up by the Kellogg team the entire season which turned what might have otherwise been a mere playoff loss by several touchdowns to those evil bastards into a wild celebration that rages to this day when my deep pass arced over the outstretched fingers of a seven-footer who had been chasing me around the backfield all day but somehow on this final play was trying to keep up with our fleet reciever who gathered the ball into his arms and got us on the board at the buzzer in a fashion that was repeated years later by Sam Simmons in Minnesota except our score was even more unlikely and stupendous and rendered entirely meaningless the fact we lost the game by five or six touchdowns.

So, yeah, I was a college athlete.
Otto, was discovered on the intermural field.

I pitched for the team “Helen Strotz”. Bob and Helen came to the final game of our IM season and the Daily printed a great picture of the team huddled around them on a blustery day on the Lakefill.

And so were 2 of our fraternity brothers Jack, Gary Wodder the QB and Dave Murphy, a wide receiver, who caught a lot of passes for the 'Cats. Murphy's brother, whose name was Alan, I believe, pitched in the major leagues, and he stopped by the Delt House from time to time to visit Dave.
 
You joined into this discussion after almost 100 posts had gone back and forth on the subject and then introduced yourself as some self-proclaimed expert that none of the rest of us were.

Here is your very first statement:

"There are so many terrible, horrible things being flatly stated as truths in this thread that I hardly know where to begin."

And now you have the audacity to accuse others of condescension while grossly exhibiting it yourself.

I am not going to respond to your latest post that starts out with a direct insult to me.

You know where I stand on this subject along with others here who have the same position as mine.
If I condescended, I apologize. I am hardly an expert, just someone who does not understand your position at all, much the same way I don’t understand why so many vote against their own self-interest in politics. A subject for a different arena.

We are all ‘Cats fans and have that common ground to stand on, which is enough for me.
