The three all of a sudden amigos are basically asking for a bailout.

Of the three, UNC brings the most overall value to the SEC/B1G.

I assume that means you'll be giving up any health/homeowners insurance you may have, including Medicare, and returning your Social Security checks. :)

You mean the healthcare and social security we all pay for years in advance and never realize the full benefit of? <— NOT Socialism

Maybe you’re asking the illegal immigrants who receive benefits but never paid for them to give them up? <—SOCIALISM

or use of public schools, roads, police, fire dept, etc.

I swear if the concept of a free public library was just introduced to the public a large swath of republicans would decry it as socialism and bad for the public.

private schools produce better education at a lesser price . The average cost per student at a private level is +/- 8k but the average cost per student at the public level is +/- 14k funded by taxpayers. More expensive and on average crappier education. I didnt hear about he figure until recently. The department of education is an example of a socialist program that is poorly ran and a giant waste. Primarily b/c the federal gov't runs it.

That's a terrible analysis. The product these teams are offering is competition between each other. They don't have a product without other teams to play. That's why there is revenue sharing, because they aren't stand alone businesses.

I don’t think you understand the meaning of socialist, capitalist or bailout

Every team being paid the same amount regardless of their value to the contract is socialism. Asking to be paid your market value is nowhere close to a bailout

OP seems to think we live in a binary world. We do not.

Plenty of programs in organizations in our daily lives are a mix of socialism and capitalism.

The NFL has a few components of capitalism, but some very strong components of socialism. Things might change over time, but at this moment in 2024, the NFL looks to be a stunningly successful business model.

If you buy your electricity from an electric cooperative, you are part of a business model that is much more socialist than capitalist.

Your public service commission public utility commission is a socialist business model.

Most franchise organizations have strong elements of socialism and capitalism.

The OP is either using labels to sensationalize some simple thoughts or the OP simply doesn’t understand the realities of socialism and capitalism.

First, login in to your Facebook account. Second, search for the Facebook Marketplace page on the platform. Third, click on the section that says "post." You can choose to add pictures or videos to your post, but it's really up to you. Fourth, start typing out a creative ad that really entices people to want to pay for your product. Fifth, adjust the price based off the demand for the product. If there is high demand, charge more. If there is low demand, charge less. Then, once that is all done, take the soiled underwear and shove them up your butt.

exactly do they bring all this value? The UNC fanbase is not exactly large or rabid? More like smelly argyle socks and smelly cheese and whines?

UNC probably is tops for apparel sales to non-fans.

Other than that, I got nothing to counter your point. They are middling (at best) when it comes to football. A 10 win season in Chapel Hill is like a snow in Charleston.
