No, fire all the employees, restock them with actual journalists, and return them to normal reporting.

It would be satisfying to see him show 'em all how it should be done...profitably and fair-mindedly, just for giggles, I'd like to see it happen and watch the Leftists scream "he's not doing it right (actually, left)..."

I think we should make a Christmas list and send it to Elon.

Aii I want a $200 million endowment for NIL. 03-wink

Why? Memphis still has 22 win Penny and still wouldn't make the playoffs football and stuck in the G6....

or maybe 5 years from now in a watered down ACC which at that point will be G7

It needs it. When I was there 2015 or so they had a sheet hanging from the rafters projecting stats. When I was there in I believe 22012/013 (Donnie was coaching) that place was loud and rocking in a OT win over Western.

Same thing 1989 or 1990 I was there and watched Weatherspoon and S. Miss lose a close game to very good Louisville team. S. Miss had a 6'4 or 6'5 guard that I cant remember his name that was a player. Weatherspoon and that kid made one of the best scoring combos in the NCAA

So 2 of the 3 trips as far as fan support (and noise) reminded me of Western when there were 13 to 14k in Diddle Arena and John Thompson brough his #2 G-town team (1982-83) to Diddle and was lucky to get a 4 point win. He quoted after that game "from start to finish, there was a wall of noise". Western wasnt very good that year but Coach Clem Haskin had a top 10(nationally) so mostly freshmen made up the starters.

A story told to me by the AD at this time Western was the top pick to get S. Miss spot in the Metro but Louisville blocked it. At that time Western had made the NCAA tourney 11 of the previous 20 years. Plus the F4 run and ranked 7 years of those 20. Plus Western held head to head win count over Louisville, Cincy, and Memphis

Cry some more.

You voted for this:

I will take Elon over that EVERY DAY.

Who's crying? And I didn't cast one vote for that woman.

And I'm glad you'll take Elmo. He's running the show now. Wonder how long JD will sit by and take it?

Ummm -

What happened to the radical left cult's mantra, "Follow the science"? 03-lmfao

RE: Elon Bought CNN?
I read today where Musk’s net worth is up to $336 billion. An incredible number.

Just his available liquid funds is said to be around $85 billion. Also incredible.

He could probably find enough cash under his mattress to buy CNN. It’d be like somebody who makes $100,000 spending 25 cents.
