    You pretty much answered question number one with question number two.

    If you can't make it in bottom-tier TV markets, there's always advertising.

    Too bad we're not going to get treated to this.

    Would have been better than Bob Goulet.

    No Duke fans with North Carolina license plates.

    Oklahoma State fans studying for the class on cutting grass.

    I'd buy whatever they've produced on DVD.

    It has to be the funniest shit on earth.

    I'd be willing to bet no human being ever has been described as "very culinary and polite".

    Maybe they can show the Robert Goulet commercials again. :)

    UNLV students finding out that AHG101: Ass From Hole in the Ground is closed.

    That said, my Alma Mater was ripped on the Simpsons.

    For ASU, girls making calls in bikini tops would work. They wore them to class boys. They wore them to class.

    Arizona State's on-going suckage in college football is one of the great mysteries of modern American history.

    Sooooooo far off. If it's a male stereotype, think rich, pretty Catholic school kids decked out in matching T-shirts worn over their Abercrombie polos (collar popped, of course). If it's a female stereotype, there's an 85 percent chance she shows up plastered, doesn't know anything about basketball except that "Matt Bouldin's *so* dreamy" and simply cheers when everyone else in the arena does. [/Gonzaga Class of '06] :D

    UNLV: An international student wearing a big gold chain, pubic hair mustache, greased back hair, smoking unfiltered cigarettes while playing on-line poker and yelling "BeeYotch" all the time.

    The memo wasn't funny, obviously, but if that hadn't leaked and they had gone through with it, it could have been a good campaign.
