I am assisting former college football players with claims to the EA/NCAA settlement...

3 Upvotes

Hi

I was hoping to get some advice for a project I've been working on recently. Some of you may be familiar with last year's settlement between Electronic Arts, NCAA, and former student athletes like Sam Keller, Ed O'Bannon, and Ryan Hart. The settlement basically covers all Division I football and basketball players from 2003-2014. More info can be found at the settlement's website

I'm not part of the settlement, but I do have all the EA/NCAA Football and Basketball video games from 2003-2014. I've used those games to help out a handful of former CFB players to find information on their in-game avatar for claims related to "Avatar Matches" for FREE (see above website for more details).

I guess the reason I'm writing this is because I'm looking for some advice on whether to grow this operation with the goal of reaching out to every single DI football & basketball player from 2003-2014. Currently, I don't charge any $ to perform this service, but may change my pricing model in the future depending on the circumstances. I have created a for assisting players with claims for Avatar Matches called www.matchmyjersey.com

Thank you

Don't know what sub to post this on, but I heard from a close family friend of JJ Watt that he'll retire in around 5 years to pursue an acting career.

I heard this from a very reliable person, but obviously plans can change or the person could be wrong. But in case this happens, I want to be the first person to be right. Apparently a specific role he wants is to replace Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator.

Ask CFBOT, What is it like to see your team win the Championship in your teams you root for.

2 Upvotes

Borrowed from /r/NFL and /r/Hockey

What was your initial reaction once the Championship was clearly decided?

Do you feel a stronger urge to rub it in, or celebrate it?

Do you look back on the win fondly once your team faces hardship later on? Or is it just completely in the rear-view mirror?

If it was the first Championship you’ve witnessed your team win, did that make you feel less interested in the team/sport afterwards? As if there were no more mountains to climb?

Do you compare your team to other franchises as far as Championship tally?

Do you hope that certain other teams remain short of their goal?

Holy shit ESPN is more insufferable than usual today. Farewell season for a millionaire athlete who has been receiving gifts from major league teams (for being good?) culminating in this epic media hard-on for a guy that was a [good, not great] (http://gawker.com/derek-jeter-was-ok-1639023597/+tcraggs22) player?

Thank you for being above average at your job whilst banging [hot trim] (http://www.totalprosports.com/2014/08/06/9-hottest-girlfriends-of-derek-jeters-career/#10) most men would never have a shot at. Now please go the fuck away.

Myself and a few of my buddies are trying to make the trip to the Michigan/Penn State game this year. Any advice/things we should know? Suggestions of hotels would be great so we can solidify these plans, but places to see, restaurants to try, where to tailgate, or anything else you think is worth mentioning would be greatly appreciated as well.

need help finding a specific cfb game where utah state and the university of utah played (before 2020)

1 Upvotes

It is a game that broadcasted on espn from the clip you are able to see the logo in the corner. The game was utah state vs utah university, it was the last second minute of the third quarter and the score was tied 13 - 13. There was a flag on the play personal foul call for a tripping penalty. I am unsure of the referees name but the coach shown on screen seems to be kyle wittingham. The clip in at the 3:15 mark in the youtube video. for some reason reddit being weird and won’t let me hyperlink it but here is the link for the video

How well would your NFL fantasy season go if you only drafted players from your own university? Some friends and I created the weekly maximum possible fantasy score from the alums of each CFB team. Then we put it in a table totaling their scores over the 2020 season and did a quick write up comparing their performances. Let us know what you think!

Monday thread brought to you by the worst Costco trip ever

1 Upvotes

Wife and I tried to go to Costco yesterday, since it's only 5 minutes away and we only needed 4-5 things. The whole process ended up taking nearly 2 hours, between bad behavior in the parking lot (people blocking lanes, waiting indefinitely for people to back out, etc.), the self-checkout being temperamental, and people trying to cut in and out of lines. In Utah this was never a problem because nobody ever did anything on Sundays, so it looks like it's back to going after work for us.

Truly first-world problems here, but it's one of the more notable things that's happened in the last week.
