Sorry SHARK, you got SHARKED, WOOF!

One of my favorite parts:
Quote:
When initially deciding on Legends and Leaders, Delany said the Big Ten "didn't have great options."

"We weren't going to go with 'Bo or Woody,' 'Black or Blue,' or 'Plains or Lakes,'" Delany said. "Obviously we got some acceptance [with Legends and Leaders], but not as much as we would have liked."


I would like to have Amy and Seth's Really??? segment for this one. Directional division makes so much more sense over the long run and it saves you from stupid stuff like this. The only "fancy" one I've liked is the ACC (which I would argue doesn't make much sense anyway.)

You are a sales rep in...something or other. Your sales manager, thinking your team needs to be "motivated," sends you and your co-workers to some terrible seminar in the conference center of a Radisson off the expressway, where a "star-studded" roster of motivators belches out platitudes about bootstraps and "dynamics," plus aphorisms where word pairs are inverted, like Michael Scott's "you have to play to win, but you also have to win to play." Perhaps something like "you're not selling the product. The product is selling you."

The name of that seminar is "Legends and Leaders."
