[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, let me expand: Stanford is just as good as any Ivy League school. Why is it not in the Ivy League? Because it’s stupid for a CA school to be in an athletic conference with East Coast schools. Plus, Stanford wants to play FBS football. Hence, they’re in the PAC-12. [/quote] You keep making the opposite point of the one you think you are. Say “Ivy League college” to the next 10 people you meet and ask them what it means. Not one will reference sports primarily. Then say “PAC 12” to the next 10. Majority won’t know, but those that do will ONLY reference sports. It has taken a meaning beyond its original one. You’re like the guy arguing that drugstore brand cotton swabs shouldn’t be referred to as Q-tips. Or that tomatoes shouldn’t be referred to as a vegetable. Both technically true, but petulant, stupid and irrelevant.[/quote]
