BREAKING: Jordan Peterson Restored To Twitter By Elon Musk

Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced on Friday that his company restored the account belonging to DailyWire+ host Jordan Peterson.

“New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach,” Musk said.

Peterson, who was banned from the social media platform earlier this year for a post about transgender actress Elliot Page, previously wrote that he would rather die than compromise on telling the truth about the Oscar nominee’s biological sex.

Musk recently told the public that he purchased the company in order to facilitate open dialogue between citizens with differing opinions. “The reason I acquired Twitter is because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence,” the multibillionaire wrote in a statement. “There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right wing and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society.”

Why Scrapping Divisions In The SEC Is The Right Move

SEC Commissioner, and the most influential man in college football, Greg Sankey said that once Texas and Oklahoma join the league in a couple seasons, the SEC is leaning toward scratching its current divisional model of having teams split into two divisions: East and West.

We’ve seen other conferences like the Pac-12, the Big-12, and the Mountain West follow suit and it’s exactly the right move.

The whole point of scheduling in a conference is to have each team play each other at home at least once and play away at least once during the course of a college career. This decision will bring the SEC one step closer to that.

The geography of how the SEC has done it also makes absolutely no sense. You don’t have to be Christopher Columbus to figure out Auburn and Alabama don’t need to be in the ‘West’ or Missouri and Texas A&M in the ‘East’.

It also seems like the four team pod model is also dead, which I also agree with.

The biggest challenge out there, as the SEC leans into this change, will be keeping the best rivalries intact. Games like Georgia vs. Florida or Texas vs. Oklahoma or Auburn vs. Alabama are big, historical rivalries and must-watch games. The way the new SEC championship will be set up makes it very possible to maintain those rivalries.

With the SEC’s goal of expanding to 16 teams by 2025, this seems like a simple decision. At the end of each season, the top two teams play for a spot in the College Football Playoffs. The tiebreaker system needs to be simplified as well. Head-to-head should take precedence if teams are tied and if there is no head-to-head, there should be tiebreakers implemented underneath that.

Either way the SEC is making the right move. At the end of the day, divisions are always bad.
