I’m commenting on how absurd it is to expect the Super Bowl to be a better game (whatever the hell that really means) than other NFL games between good teams.

It feels like a lot of people have that expectation because of the hype (not people here; meatspace people). They’re just asking to be let down.

it’s now 21 years since 1991, the year in which The Big Lebowski was set. Would you go see the movie if they made a sequel, featuring the now 21 year old little lebowski, wandering around Los Angeles?

Yes, we rural folk who lose water at every power outage, and have to pay $1200 for a new well pump and about the same for a pressure tank inside the house, have to hand over $30 for absolutely no service at all.

At least a passport gets you out of the country and back in again. Also the greatest ID ever for any purpose.

A replacement might limit damages but it's hardly a defense to breach of contract

If FSU ends up with some shitty Big East team and loses a mill on the game, they have every right to be pissed.

That said, Florida State will almost certainly be limited to that $500,000 liquidated damages clause. Those are ignored by courts only rarely, and almost never when you’ve got two sophisticated parties (so lack of bargaining power/sophistication isn’t an issue). The real DERP there was Florida State agreeing to only a $500k liquidated damages clause when 1) they probably knew the actual damages could be substantially higher (as they know now from their quotes), and 2) they should’ve known that an event like this was likely, given that they set this game in an environment of conference upheavel. Bad, bad lawyering.

by Old South on Feb 6, 2012 12:28 AM EST up reply actions  

There is no breach

because the contract contained a buyout, which included a stipulation on what that buyout would be if exercised less than 12 months before the game. So long as WVU pays that buyout, they are fulfilling the terms of the contract.

A buyout IS a liquidated damages clause

It doesn’t matter if you structure it by preordaining the damages and binding the parties to them, or saying it’s an alternative means of performance. Ultimately, it won’t matter, because as we’ve both said, FSU is going to be settling or getting paid $500,000.

Right, I get that

I’m just saying that if you put the clause in the contract, and abide by the terms of the buyout, I don’t see how anyone could ever successfully sue you for breach because the clause is a part of the contract and by paying the buyout you’re fulfilling your obligation.

Yep

What FSU would be trying to do is say that $500,000 payment isn’t fair and should be waived. They’d point to how much money they actually lost, probably find some bad cases that says that liquidated damages must approximate what the real damages would be, and go from there. And as you pointed out, that’d be silly in this situation. When courts waive those penalties, they only do so in real nasty situations—generally, a consumer who signed some long, poorly written contract he couldn’t read and that would be absurd for him to spend the time to try to comprehend, imposing a manifestly unfair penalty, on a take-it-or-leave it basis, etc. None of that is a problem here. FSU and WVU have good lawyers and businessfolk and the money to get better, if they so chose. They didn’t. So they suffer the consequences.

SERIOUSLY, EFF YOU NCAA12

Okay, I’m not really raegy, but I am a bit annoyed. I have 3 recruits signed, 2 4-stars and a 5-star. I check my coaching goals, and one of them is “sign 10 4-star recruits in a season”. There are two check marks—meaning the 5-star recruit doesn’t count. LOLWUT

Was one of them a wide receiver?

If so, that’s a sign of insufficient commitment to the running game and is therefore discounted.

Time to sleep.

Work beckons in, oh, seven and a half hours.

Hope I don’t get caught in traffic for the Giants’ parade (whenever that may be – assuming it’s not tomorrow).

So, I was rewatching all the commercials.

The NFL Fantasy Million Dollar Commercial.

A 49ers fan who’s Chinese.

A Dolphins fan at South Beach who’s black.

A Jets fan who’s Italian.

No, nothing racist there, nothing at all.

Could be worse

they could have put a black guy in the Howard Stern “America’s Got Talent” commercial.
