What did the chicken say when he was getting fried.
Hey, I'm getting fried.
Bazinga.
 
Not sure where it was posted (I think this thread, but not going thru 11607 posts to find it), but someone pointed out that AFL merchandise had certain rules attached for players signing jumpers, or something along those lines. (I believe the point was to see that people weren't buying 50 signed jumpers for resale, and/or that non-AFL licensed merchandise wasn't being used, etc.)

Anyway, I just saw this:
Memorabilia deals probed

It is understood the AFL had considered suspending some of the bigger offenders.

Some players are expected to receive significant fines, while others will escape with suspended fines.

The AFL has become incensed that the sports memorabilia market has been flooded with non-AFL endorsed items, and is looking into all potential endorsement of players of unauthorised memorabilia and merchandise.

The identification of the players is a consequence of successful legal action recently taken by the AFL against an unlicensed memorabilia seller.

The thing is i think lots of players may do it. Its going to get interesting.
What would happen is player A would recieve a $$$ payment to sign for example 100 boots.

As part of afl rules a player can not sign anything that is not offically endorsed that a 3rd party has requested them sign for profit.
 
Crows have "given up" their first two picks.
The Adelaide Football Club has withdrawn its first two selections of tomorrow’s 2012 NAB National Draft as a gesture of goodwill towards resolving the Tippett matter.

Chairman Rob Chapman described it as a common-sense initiative that is in the Club’s overall best interests.

It would result in Adelaide having picks 62, 81 and 95 in tomorrow's draft.

Not happy about it, but it does make sense.
Yeah, it might lessen the blows..? They seem fairly guilty about it. Good on them for not trying to lie and say they didn't do it. :thumbsu:

It's just the overall pressure to do well by parents and teachers. My school is really strict academically. If anyone gets more than 3 D's they are put on review in year 10.

Shight.
Our school is much more lenient compared to that..
But I wouldn't really know exactly what they do for people who get straight D's (or something like that), because I've never got under a C. :cool:

It's a strange thing, but once you finish school and move to university or other tertiary education, you are looking for C's or D's but still avoiding F's.

With that being said, in my current course I am on a D average. :cool:
