Valpo Zip

The game on saturday is a must win ! Toledo has two losses and it seems like 99% that they won't loose to anyone in their west remaining schedule.If we loose on Saturday, we will have two losses and a very harsh remaining schedule (including @Can't, @buffalo, @miami, and Ohio). We must win this game and fans must be there in Toledo.Students should join the bus trip and other fans/alums should find ways to go there.

Sounds like a great fix ! Thumbs up moderators.

I read Rasor's edge the week before and in no way did i get the impression that he is criticizing the students who produce the game. I have no idea why the student is offended. The university is using cheap labor, low budget material in an old building; the result is a poor gameday production. No body said that it was the student's fault.

Yesterday, during the Bball game, coach porter came to the rowdies seats (south-end) and Chad Welker (one of the Rowdies leaders), introduced him and said that he had something to say.Coach Porter, praised the great job we were doing for the bball team and said that he needs us to do the same during the soccer season to support the zips soccer team. He said that he would do whatever it takes (pizza, wings, etc...) to have this group (rowdies) on the soccer bleachers come august.Very classy individual and showed that he really cares about his team.

Ugly win. Absolutely.That's fine, you will always have nights when the shot is off. Good thing the big guys picked it in the paint. Rome and J-wood... Wow !The ugliest things: Free throws and the students/people of Akron. What were they doing on a Wednesday evening?

Is that the guy calling the game on TW23? As i understand, he went to can't state... so what can you expect. Can't read, can't write and can't make sense when calling a game.I thought that it is our interest for Can't to win, or let me rephrase, for Toledo to loose. So i am not disappointed. Let's hope WMU beats OU. they're in OT.

How about some love for KD.A great coach, who is willing to sign a life time contract with a midmajor school. It doesn't happen every day.

Bleacher Bum, If only you can spark a brawl between the two teams from your seat so they both get few players suspended... that will be sweet !Otherwise, i don't know who to root for... Can't will loose at Ohio and we have a good shot at beating them too. While Toledo will not lose any of their last five games... So i would say i am rooting for KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.....KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK...........................KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK...........................KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK...........................I'm sorry, my tongue just can't say that i am rooting for them.

Welcome on board man... Can't wait to see you in action.

:bow:If you get the proper graphics with this, you have struck gold.A nice....AAAAAAA--DAMMMM AAAAAAA--DAMMMM chant every time he touches the ball.real name is Adam Why exactly would we "cheer" his name ? i understand that this is his real name and that he doesn't use it much but i still don't see why would we do that. I suggest focusing on the fact that he was not good enough to play in Akron and that Akron's leftovers are OU's stars.

I couldn't make it to this game because I was working, but I think there is a J-Wood sign. It says "Shaq of the MAC" or something along those lines. Dru and Quade signs are coming. The exact words of the J-wood sign were: "Shaq o da Mac."I was planning to make a sign that says: "Wow ! knock on the J-Wood." My buddy said that it was stupid, so i backed off . Plus, i don't have any photoshop skills, so my sign would be all text, which doesn't compare to the great things the fellow rowdies are coming up with.

You're totally right, i will park my car in the non existing indoor parking and walk to my class through the heated bridge that doesn't exist.After closing the lower levels of the engineering building, i have to walk for half a mile from my car to the building every day... and if you haven't heard, it is cold.

Out if this list, one guy is on scholarship...Isn't that crazy?

The lucky bastards aka ohio university just won @ CMU by one point after trailing the whole game by 7 or more points at some points in the game. Damn it !Western Michigan, the team we beat by double score, is currently battling @ miami... Miami 55WMU 54 2:28 remaining.Can't demolished EMU by a trillion point, pretty impressive, but not impressive enough to change the fact that Toledo seems to be comfortably heading towards a win against their archrival BGSU.NIU vs Buffalo, do you care to know the score ? ... that's what i thought !We're currently resting at the top of the MAC east. Tied with Toledo for the MAC lead. Which makes our game next saturday a very important one. That's why we all need to be there to help our team win. If you haven't heard about it yet, if you're a student, you can ride a bus to toledo, get a ticket and a t-shirt and come back the same day, all for $15. It doesn't get any better.

I never heard of Dials leaving, and it doesn't make any sense to me at all. Why would he do that ? playing on a successful team and getting additional exposure can only help him whether he wants to play over seas or go towards sports management (Rick Mcfadden) or even become a high school coach. About the leadership, Cedrick is the man next year and J-wood is not bad either... he is currently not on the spot because Dru and Romeo are ahead of him, next year is a different story.

Both the winner and the loser of the UALR game played another game. We played Gardner Webb. The Tiffin game would have cancelled only if we have won both UALR and Texas tech to play in the finals... which looked waaay out of reach, so the AD scheduled Tiffin.

I think it is too early to worry about next year while we are in the middle of what might be the best season ever in zips basketball history. But since you started it, i am not worried about next year at all. We will have a lot of talent and leadership in 4 seniors in Quade, J-wood, Dials and Cedrick. Add to that a lot of size in Bardo and Sweich. You add Chris McKnight and Linhart and you have a great team.It is the following year that might be a rebuilding team, with Linhart, Conyers and Rybak being the seniors.

Beautiful !

If you look at what some of the fans are wearing to games, you would say that OSU come play us at the JAR every single week.But in reality, I would say they come almost every... NEVER.

If i am phil savage, i will draft:1- Joe Thomas OT, Wisconsin.2- Paul Poslouzny (sp?) OLB, Penn state3- The best available RB4- Andy Alleman, OG, Akron

lol...

PeayMan, no one on this board is trying to diss your school or your team. You made some good points and i agree with all what you said.The problem here is that the system works for the strong instead of encouraging the promissing, hardworking mid major team.Why do we have to go to Nevada (top 25) when we play away, and they don't give us a team from the same caliber at home ? (again no disrespect intended to Peay) but i am sure you know what i am saying.Can't is going to george mason, would they get the same caliber when they play home next year ? good mid major teams obviously struggle to schedule teams every year and instead of getting help from ESPN, they get a punch in the face.

Beautiful ! I love it. I am expecting a top 10 Midmajor tonight.We better not screw it this week. In fact, we should win our next 4 games and maybe end up with 25-30 votes and a top 3 midmajor.

Hey Bleacher, you might not be able to see it, but the north side was way better today than it was before. I have no one but you to credit for that improvement. I am not saying that that side was perfect, but relatively better. And as SGM said, the game wasn't that thrilling.By the way, i loved it when you guys started the "you have one point" cheer. Was that you who started it?

I can't wait to see the signs !
