$500 Million
« on: November 27, 2012, 05:23:25 PM »
So, if you win the lottery tomorrow night, what do you do with that much money?     Is there anyone here that would pledge $50 mil seed money toward a MU football team?

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Screw football.  I'm going to buy a cable station and rename it The Warrior Network.  Then I'm going to force every cable and satellite provider in the country to carry it on basic.  Then I'll slowly start making ESPN executives "disappear" until they stop airing ACC and Big ? games.

The rest will take care of itself.  Football is completely unnecessary.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

You're going to need a lot more than $500 million.   ;D

Back in the day, you could win a UHF station in a poker game, and I'm sure I could find a bunch of people willing to take out Mickey Mouse dirt cheap.  Heck, I bet I could convince the Chinese to down DTV 10, 11 and 12 for $50M a piece... I could name my price to Dish and AT&T once that happened.

I might just have enough left over to send one of my kids to Marquette.

I start with the tuition and see what you got left. Depending on your kids age you might fall short.

Seeing as how I only won $4 for matching two numbers, I definitely am going to fall short.
