Dim bulb dummies think that Florida is run by Kristi Noem.

PING!

There are still some Republicans hypnotized into believing organized sports are more important than election integrity and defense of children from mutilation, but that number is falling rapidly.

Contrary to what pretty much everyone on here said about her, all she wanted to do is have a bill that separated high school girls from college female athletes.

What she wanted was to give young girls in South Dakota a chance. And now South Dakota has nothing.

She wanted a united front to take on the NCAA to make them capitulate instead of seeing them try to boss everyone around and intimidate them, just like they’re doing now.

The first thing they’ll bring up is....oh, your state and city make so much money from our events....that’s the bait. They tout all the tax revenue from sales taxes, hotel taxes, etc. What they don’t tell you is, due to terrorism/security concerns and logistical issues, that most of that money goes to OT for all the cops, firemen and sanitation folks, to name a few. The only folks really making money are the networks broadcasting the event and the schools.

Why hosting the Super Bowl isn’t worth it, according to an economist ...... https://www.businessinsider.com/super-bowl-nfl-football-hosting-cost-worth-host-cities-2019-2

And an event like the Final 4 is the same thing. First, most of the tickets go to corporate entities. Second, then you have 4 sets of fans vying for the remaining tickets. Two teams lose, all those fans, cancel their rooms and head home. You might have a few diehards try to make their way across the country to get into the final game, but it’ll cost a ton of money and for most of the folks with the kind of money that don’t matter, would rather watch the game in their Man Cave on their 85”, 8K flat screen anyway. No lines to the concession or bathroom.
