Dear Commissioner Pettiti, Hi. MNWildcat here. Thanks for putting your thumb on the scale earlier this week to prevent SBNation from being sold to the Murdochs along with Vox.

Sure, you looked bad when you tried to sell out stakes of the conference to private equity, an idea so craven and shitty that even USC and Michigan— Michigan!
