  1. We're shooting better from outside the 3 point line than inside it, WHY are we still forcing the ball inside when we're so far behind? The only shot we've hit in the second half is a tre. It would be different getting drubbed by a much better team, but we're just pissing this one away.

  3. Nobody is gonna win shooting 36% in the Big Dance. They gotta start hitting.
  4. I'm trying to remember all of the shows and commercials that used DEVO songs. They're not listed anywhere. Maybe someone else in my age group can fill in some of the blanks "Working in a Coal Mine" was the theme of an office-based sit com "Freedom of Choice" was used by a cell phone company and/or bank "Beautiful World" was in a commercial "Through Being Cool" was in a commercial "Planet Earth" was in a commercial "Out of Sync" was the theme of a movie? THey went techno after "Are We Not Men?" and turned off some, turned on others. Their music continues to evolve (I'm sorry, de-evolve) They were never mainstream, and never commercialized to become mainstream like most other bands do. So I don't think less of them for only having one hit, I'm glad they didn't cash out on "pop". If they had, they wouldn't have lasted this long. If that makes them "one hit wonders" then so be it. People still pay to listen to them.
  5. One hit wonder? I just got their latest CD from 2010. And I'm much older than 6... He made more in royalties from doing the theme of "RugRats" than we'll make in our careers. Now he's scoring probably the hottest kids show on TV today. He's done other shows, films, video games. Devo's music has been used in several TV commercials and theme songs. Someone asked me if I disliked the musicians who went to Can't, I said no. Buchtel Community College wasn't what it is now, and Can't isn't what it once was. It's not like we've seen a Joe Walsh, Chrissie Hinde, or Devo come out of there in the last 30 years... One hit wonder. I don't think he's looking through the couch cushions for change to buy food...
  6. Sore losers... Just one more reason to hate the urine colored jerkoffs.
  7. It's 10:13 PM on Saturday March 12, 2011. And Can't State STILL SUCKS!!!!!
  8. Zeke Marshall became a man tonight
  9. I predict the first team to foul out so many players they can't put 5 on the floor, loses...
  10. Ken Karman and Tom Gaffney were ripping apart the "fanbase" of the Zips for such a poor showing today on 1350. They both said they have just about give up on this team ever attracting the numbers a division I deserves. So I started to wonder. Is it the arena? Or is it being in the shadow of THE Ohio State University? Or is this just a bad basketball market? Oversaturated, with the Cavs, Vikings, and flushes? Not to mention the Wayne College Warriors.
  11. I'm not familiar with this forum software. On my computer the forum started looking like this IS this something new? Or does this have something to do with my 16 month old grand daughter visiting yesterday?
  12. The Vest is suspended two games. Akron and Toledo. If only we had our shit together... Toledo might give them a game.
  13. What the heck. No baseball at Springfest this year? Who's idea was that? Screw that mess, if there's no ball...
  14. Someone correct me. Were we not talking about the development of players, strengths and weaknesses of guys like Marshall and Euton. And it turned into someone taking it as a personal attack? Is this golden boy a senior, who we really don't expect to develop much in the few weeks he has remaining of college? I need to know who the untouchables are before I do any more analysis. Don't wanna piss on anyone else's feel good-lets sing the Barney song thread.
  15. JHC I made one comment about his play, and you guys go ape shit. I realize he's a Freshman and has lots of potential. I just saw things that (as I've said twice) were corrected later in the game. And I have no idea who you're insinuating my "golden boy" is. Wanna clue me in? Unbunch your panties and grow a few more layers of skin. Maybe I should stick to hockey, their fans can take someone saying something negative. Crimony...
  16. Not impressed with Abreu last night, in the first half he seemed to have a shoot-first, shoot-later attitude. That doesn't impress me in any player, especially the playmaker. As I said he did get his act together later in the game and remembered he was a point guard. If you can't accept that observation, that's pretty sad. If you don't want to me to point out the negative along with the positive, maybe a forum isn't the best place for you. And I won't apologize for watching more than one sport. Maybe you should take a lottle road trip this weekend too.
  17. Right now, I really don't care if we start trying to work the ball to Zeke and get him going. This team is winning games in relatively impressive fashion with Cvetinovic and McKnight carrying the load out of the post. Trying to force feed Zeke to get him going (as we did earlier in the season) is only going to serve to disrupt the chemistry and rythm this team has going right now. KD is taking the correct approach right now. Let our proven horses carry the load and whatever you can get out of Zeke on a given night is just gravy. This isn't the time of year to be trying to stroke the confidence of the finiky big man. We'll have the offseason to work on that. Agreed. Zeke is still a project, and next year, when we're minus 4-5 guys is a much better year for projects. Abreu started playing better when he figured out it wasn't his job to drive the lane every time he had the ball. At 5'9 that rarely works against a Buffalo. I'm still not impressed yet. Where was Dakotah? I've been in hockey land the past few months and haven't kept up with the hoops like I should.
  18. Well, Buffalo took us out of the zone, and played their usual hardass ball. And we got the usual bad calls, what would a MAC game be without them? Zeke got a couple early fouls, and spent a lot of time on the bench. But Bardo stepped up in his last regular season home game and made the difference IMO. That was the most exciting crowd I have seen at the JAR. Great college basketball atmosphere.
  19. I borrowed this from a Cleveland pro sports forum. http://www.thedmonline.com/article/change-...ollege-baseball A very nice change IMO. And who knows, it might be easier to recruit pitchers into colleges now that they know they have a chance to put up better numbers than a beer league slow pitch tosser... That was always one of my pet peeves with college ball.
  20. Well heck, I live in Wadsworth. I never lived in Akron. I guess I'm suppose to HATE Akron. We have to compete with Akron. Never mind the fact that when Akron gets something, Wadsworth's hotels and eateries and traffic ticket window benefits. We're better than Akron and Cleveland. Never mind we benefit from anything Akron gets. Hell we'll benefit from the casino, a winning sports team, maybe even the Medical Mart (). But we can do it ourselves. We can start up four TV stations, a major college, upscale shopping, great ethnic restaraunts, museums, we'll get our own NFL team too. Yeah we're a hell of a lot smaller than the primary city in our market. We don't need them, we can do all this ourselves. I betcha Lorain can too!!! I just don't understand that mentality...
  21. I can't get ESPN3 on my lapper. Time Warner has too many stinkin hoops to jump through to get it to work. I spent an hour on the phone with India trying to get my account information.
  22. Read up above. NPSL in 2012 So it's a new NPSL, not the NPSL that was formed from the AISA survivors and the ashes of the MISL, which later changed it's name to MISL. But a new NPSL. An outdoor NPSL. But not the original NPSL, which merged with the USA to frm the NASL. The original NASL, not the now NASL. Which is a bunch of teams that broke away from the USL. Awwww to hell with it. I'll just stick to college...
  23. Now we sit back and wait to see where they're seeded in the conference tournament to see if they get a home game or two.
