    Continuing the long, proud tradition of college football players getting McDonald’s bags with sketchy contents!

    Also, isn’t “goofy ass promotion with local franchisee” kind of exactly what NIL was intended to be, at least according to the people pretending it was something other than a legal fig leaf to legalize boosters paying players?

          Ture, it’s more the fact that these mcd meals show up all the time and each one merits a progressively larger eye roll from me
