    Lol. How has it gotten into your brain that there was any suggestion you not go to a game? Those $20 beers must have taken their toll, cause that has never been mentioned by anyone but you.

    My brother in Christ I have explained to you already that I am using that as a comparison to compare $20/m (240$ a year) to going to a game (costs around $240). I have no idea how this is that hard to comprehend, especially after I explicitly told you.

    And I have already explained there are multiple methods to generate $240 other than not going to a game....starting with those bad tasting $20 beers. Cut out one beer every quarter of one game and you are a third of the way there for the entire year and you still got to go to the game!
    Look, we all know you are not going to contribute, and that's fine....I don't blame you one bit. I wouldn't either if I were you. BUT your original quote was "THEY need to do better" in reference to Fl Victorious. My entire point is that it's not "they", it's "us"......and there are people working really hard and giving of their time and resources, while some do nothing and demand they "do better". Maybe just say thank you until you are in a better position to assist.

    apk, what's wrong with you man? Cutting poor user out of his beer? What's next, stealing newborns from hospitals to sell for Collective money??

    I did sell great grandma's motorized chair and donated that, I found her a nice hickory stick though.

    I kid, I kid.

    Happy Friday everyone!

    She doesn’t need the chair, she doesn’t even know where she is.

    I had one of those hot flat beers once for $20 after waiting in a line and missing half a quarter. Whatever happen to beer man yelling ice cold beer here?

    To address your beer take, AGAIN, I will repeat what i already said. Don’t quite understand why you can’t get this. I said game day experience, which obviously involves beer. Dude you’re high if you think I spend 80$ on beer at a game lol. Cutting a beer out a quarter, as you said, means I don’t drink beer. Why would I go to a football game without drinking beer?

    Nothing like warm beer/liqour because it’s been in crotch the entire time you’re in line. Did that with fireball once and nope, never again.

    I understand what you’re saying and I’m saying altering the one game I go to a year to be able to donate 240 measley dollars a year is a joke, stupid, completely useless, and absolutely not going to happen.

    BUT. The things I said in my original comment that got you all bent out of shape, I would gladly do.

    You really don’t grasp the concept that what you’re saying is stupid and would ruin gator football for me? Making me donating a single dollar an absolute waste of my money? How?

    A federal judge in the US has issued an injunction that prevents the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) from enforcing regulations that prevent schools from making name, image and likeness (NIL) payments when recruiting college athletes. NCAA is just a matter of time before the NCAA as we know it becomes "Dead Man Walking"

    Oh, they've been that for a long time, they just didn't know it until recently.
