Imitating Nigel imitating tanfan by claiming a victory that never happened. That's sad, even for you, steve.

The evidence speaks for itself.

Loudly.

That sonuvabitch Dave Bing out there recruiting for Syracuse.

Devendorf de-committed from MSU because he didn’t want to play in obscurity.

Coleman was a helluva player. No idea if he would’ve fit in with MSU, nor if he ever gave Izzo/MSU any consideration.

I'll give you this, steve, Syracuse had the highest rated game on TBS in the 10p-midnight time period on Saturday night.

Ha! I should have enlarged that spreadsheet when I first looked at it. My eye sight isn't what it used to be.

LOL, you're trying to spin Syracuse getting less viewers for a Sweet 16 game versus a play-in game, as a victory for Syracuse?

Also, this isn't scripted Primetime programming. When it comes to live sports, a 10pm game on a Saturday night is better than Thursday night. People are less likely to stay up late on a Thursday when there is work/school the next day.

Hmm, not so sure about that. I thought Thursday was supposed to be the 'New Friday'. Also, why has the NFL gone after Thursday nights? Also, look at opening day baseball those games always enjoy a ratings boost. People want to watch the start.

FYI, two of the networks partnering with the NFL (CBS, NBC) didn’t even want TNF moving forward. Fox has games for the next couple of years, but Amazon takes TNF in ‘23. It’s not looking good for the NFL Network’s future.

Next time we all have a debate we are going to have to set some ground rules about being objective and listening to the evidence.

Pretty sure Thursday Night Football has higher ratings than MNF the last 5 years.
