Cops can also just grab your plates and mail you the inital citation as well as seek further measures for fleeing the scene or whatever.
Don't get me wrong acab and the meme made me exhale sharply. But yeah, no one should be getting shot at for driving away from a cop. SHOULD
So before I get into this, know that I'm biased as a colligate sport fan and a former NCAA athlete. But this is a bad take. Sports provide all sorts of benefit both internally and externally for the university. It is true that some athletic budgets are insane, and for what it's worth I agree that the salaries that get paid are insane. But this is simply the price of an arms war. These colleges want the best facilities and coaches. And it's not ~just~ for the dick measuring contest, though make no mistake that is absolutely part of it. But all sorts of studies show that general contributions and academic donations in particular increase with athletic team success, notably championship winning teams. People like to belong to a community, and sports fandom is one of the most tried and true sources of community. Plus the tv contacts for the so called revenue sports would make an oil tycoon blush. The presidents of these schools continue to invest in these programs because they continually prove to be an excellent roi. And I firmly believe that these same presidents know more than either of us about running their universities. And all of that is aside from what these sports provide to the most important stakeholders in a college, it's enrollees. Again recognizing my bias here, but the only reason I made it through school to get my 2 degrees that I use professionally was the sports team I trained with. These teams provide structure to the college life, something that can be hard to maintain as you essentially start a new life. Plus, sport and exercise prove to boost academic performance both on the short and long timescale. Most institutions report higher average GPAs in the athletic department than the general population. Ever notice that elite academic institutions also tend to have elite athletic programs? This isnt always obvious as it's often non revenue sports outside of the state schools that are in the aforementioned dick measuring contest. And even schools that aren't know for athletic or academics will still tend to offer intramural sports as again they are a massive boon for the students but I feel like at this point I'm straying from the original point. All in all these athletic programs are good for both the institution as a whole, and those that study at them.
tl;dr Sports good for college
Implying there are non remote areas of North Dakota.
You mean to tell me I've been painstakingly pressing the shift key during captcha tests for YEARS and it doesn't actually matter?
As a life ling swimmer/coach I can tell you this is not as surprising as it sounds. The last time the Chinese made headlines in swimming it was because Sun Yang's mother ordered blood vials be destroyed before they could be tested, which we all know is incredibly innocent behavior.
Imagine what hellscape would need this to be a law
Just gonna leave this here...
This was funny as a kid, but this is fucking hilarious as an adult
Ben Kredich rode a bus down a busy road until Knoxville canceled the route. Ben voiced that he believed that decision was dangerous and could prove fatal.
False, I will not watch it
But you'd probably have to keep your normal job
TN also almost split like VA in the civil war. They were the last to secede (doing so to protest Lincoln calling for state militia members to quell the rebellion). East TN (Knoxville region) was unionist whereas West TN (Memphis region) was rebellious. TN also supplied the most fighters to the union of any secessionist state.
