Waaah! I have nowhere to talk about USD sports, wah! Nobody listens to my awful radio show! Wah! You guys are mean to me, I'm quitting the board, wah!
Waaah! Steve made me his bitch so I only post on boards he's banned from! Waaah! I talk a bunch of $#!+ on message boards because I'm a spinless coward, Waah I'm an overweight loser who can't even get laid by my own wife so I live through the success of SDSU athletics because I can't achieve any success of my own, waaaah!
Lol, the irony of a guy who "hosts" an Internet radio show with two listeners calling anyone else a loser is just delicious.
Come on post the link to your $#!+ show again so nobody can click on it.

Fair enough. My show sucks and has low ratings. I can't deny that. Thanks for taking the time out to listen tho. The link is on my sig.

Binky is a Pac-Fudge sycophant who could care less about SDSU. The life of a bowl commissioner has got to be THE greatest job on the planet.
You can say the same about the majority of local media. Couldn't get the FS San Diego or the Mtn on Time Warner but they busted out the knee pads quick for the Pac-12 network. Even "San Diego's sports leader" attended the Pac-12 media day instead of the MWC. Tough to get local support in this town unless you're highly successful.

The entire universe is out to get us. Beat writers publish horrible stories about us, bowl executives don't want us in their games, prep football coaches tell their kids not to sign with us, poor SDSU does no wrong but yet everyone hates us. What's going on?

If this BB dude really did care about the Tourism Bureau and the people that were paying him, he would try like hell to get SDSU into the PAC12 because it would mean filling many more hotel rooms with visitors from the 5 or 6 PAC12 home games instead of just 2 bowl games. Not only the Hotels, but bars and restaurants would benefit big time.

He does care about Sdsu in one facet, the hospitality and tourism management program at that university. Most probably don't realize but it is the most competitive major at Sdsu. He is very active with that program. Being in a bowl game is all about traveling and doing local activities. I'm sure Sdsu doesnt even want to play in the p. bowl. Sdsu just needs to build its alumni base and weed out all the cheapies that complain about 15 dollar parking. Some universities require minimum 15000 donation just to keep basic season tickets.
My point was that if BB really cared about the Tourism revenue in San Diego, the best thing he could do with respect to sports visitors that spend money would be to work like hell to get SDSU into the PAC12 and make it known.
What you don't consider is that the tourism industry is the 3rd largest industry in sd. Without it sd would be bankrupt. With its support by the taxes that it imposes on guests the city still has very little revenue. The hotels said screw the city and made a tourism marketing district. A second tax on hotel guests at 2 percent. This tax cannot be used by the city but can only be used things that benefit those who collect it (hotels). They use these funds to help pay binkowskis 250k salary. Of course he wants teams that travel well. Sdsu fans going to the game pay zero tmd tax and zero tot tax unless they stay in hotel.
I could care less about the tourism bureau. The world is a cruel b1tch, doesn't mean that we have to shut our mouths and take it.
BTW, has anyone seen another bowl root against he home team like our bowls?
Good question. Did the Fiesta Bowl people crap all over Arizona State? Did the Humanitarian Bowl people crap all over Boise State? Nope.
I don't like the way the local bowl officials have treated San Diego State. I can understand their reasoning, but I don't have to like it.
I would love to see SDSU finish 11-1 and be ranked in the Top-10. Then maybe the Holiday Bowl would ask the Aztecs to play. To which request I would hope our response would be: Go pound some sand down on Pacific Beach.

Where's the mistreatment coming from? Binkowski's job is to put together 2 bowl games that could potentially draw the most attendance, ratings, local business, and profit. SDSU might not always be the best option even if they are bowl eligible. You can't expect the bowl official to bend over backwards and roll out the red carpet just because we're the hometown team. It's a business and you have to do what's in the best interest of profiting.

draw the most attendance (San Diego State set the attendance record) ratings (TCU - La TECH 2.1 rating - State Navy 2.62)

local business - this is all Binky cares about
Profit? See #1 and #2
Of course we set the record. We were playing Navy and going for our 1st FBS Bowl win. SDSU vs LaTech would've been alright but the ratings and attendance wouldn't have been the same.
