  1. This one stuck out to me:

    Mack Rhoades – Remarks About InfoCision Stadium – Summa Field“As we move forward, people continue to ask me as excitement continues to build, how can we get involved? How can we support this process? The answer is very simple: purchase a season ticket. It gets none simpler than that. When we look at bringing football on campus, we need people here. We need people to help celebrate a wonderful event and what better event to have on this campus, than 20-30 thousand people here on Saturdays during the fall to come and experience college football. Not only college football on this campus, but for people to also see the transformation of this campus. If you look at the last 10 years, what has happened here, it’s absolutely phenomenal.
    I'm no English major, but something about that wording seems a little off to me.
  2. Personally, I can do without the guy on the field with the mic.
    i love willie, and whenever he gets on the mic i get goosebumps. he's got the right voice for it. the thing is all 4th quarter bgsu fans were way louder than us which may or may not have helped their rally. i also loved how willie called out everybody who was already heading out the door even before the game was over.
  3. At any rate, I think we have a good AD in Rhoades and a top-shelf president in Proenza. I trust they'll do what's right and proper.
    agreed. has anyone else noticed that mack is right there on the sidelines 90% of the game? wonder if that adds any pressure, or maybe i'm forgetful and he's done it every year.
  4. We've had three wins this year and all of them are against teams that have been in the ESPN bottom 10 list or that waiting list. What does that say about us?For future years, we need to schedule at least 6 games against bottom 10 teams per season and then pet ourselves on the back because, you know, we're bowl eligible.
    :rofl:
  5. Damn those sesame seed sticks.
    don't you mean poppy seed muffins? or is there something i am missing about sesame seeds?
    I wrote sesame seed sticks to illustrate how absurd the original report was. Poppy seed muffins on the other hand are serious business. These are what they feed members of the rifle team. After ingested a couple of them the target bullseye looks as big as a bushel basket.
    don't let the secret out! :nono:
  6. in my defense, i was actually planning on not voting. i changed my mind and will be mailing in my registration tomorrow and between now and the election will be figuring out who i'm writing in. ;) i have no political association and would love to see a third party independent take down the two party system. back to the subject... i was talking to a few football players today and asked their opinion of the subject. the general consensus was that they acknowledged the need for the money, but would rather have an easier time becoming bowl eligible. a couple did state however, that they would like their cake and eat it too... meaning they waltz into places like syracuse and nc state, win and take their money.

  7. all of the people in costume i have met have been guys, but i'm sure there have been/are girls that play the part. those youtube videos are student made, and sadly they didn't get their facts right. here's a short list of links that mention zippy's femininity.http://www.ohiooacc.com/mascots.htmlhttp://thequad.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/05/18/http://www.wbnx.com/akronu/http://www.ohio.com/sports/12535991.htmlhttp://wp2.medina-gazette.com/2008/01/01/http://hoopedia.nba.com/index.php/Akron_Zipshttp://www.answers.com/topic/university-of-akronhttp://www.fantasybetszone.com/assets/college_mascots.pdfincluding this one from the buchtelite!
