no, but it's near it, it's to the left of dicks.

i posted way back that I was thinking about opening one in the mall. I would still like to do that someday. Right not I'm not in a position to do so though. My next plan is another duplex or a bar, but I'm probably going to get into that around March.

Everyones talking about NC State's defense. Their defense is nothing compared to Penn State. If we make the drives without penalties like we did against Penn State, your going to see Akron score 35 or more.

NC State will probably go 3-9 this year

there's over 305,000 people in a group against it lol.

johnny maloys it is, I sent the message. Tell everyone.

Direct TV should come with ESPNU

We need a bar that has the Dish Network, or Direct TV

I was just informed that Panini's doesn't have ESPNU, we're going to need another place to go to, does anyone know who will actually have the game on???

Sounds like I need to disguise myself in NC State clothes and make a trip to this game.

Guys and Gals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You can hide your info lol.

NC State looks really bad this year. I have a feeling we'll beat them. They might go 4 for 8 at best.

I'm calm, all I can say is I would rather see the Zips playing in Conference USA.

I think ESPN owns channel 43, which is 6 on cable, I think. They play the Browns games when the Browns play on ESPN

326 on January 6. 550 on September 5, that's 224 new members in 8 whole months. I think that's about 241 days, not sure. But that's .92 members a day. ZipsNation.Org has grown 69% since January 6.

On August 21, there was 500 members registered. On September 5, there are currently 550 members registered. Let's keep getting the word out there. In 15 days, 50 new members have joined. A 10% increase in 15 days!!! 3.3 new members a day.Does anyone know how much one of those billboards on Rt 8 cost. The one where "on the Hunt" has been would be a great spot to put a ZipsNation billboard.

great article

Do you think he's happy about this?? Do you think he doesn't want this to change?? He's pretty much saying, "OSU is in our way of getting the top recruits around here, so we have to go for the 2nd best." Do you see the point he's trying to make??? OSU is in our way!!!! and it's time to confront them and tell them we mean business. We're not going to let them belittle us. We're not going to let them own this market. Take a stand

We let that guy be, no one said anything to him at the bar. He was the one that was being rude. He was obviously the only one wearing OSU clothes at the bar. The guys next to him had Akron stuff on. There was a big group of Akron people sitting behind him. The ratio had to be at least 25 to 3, way more Akron fans. And he started complaining when they put the sound up for the Akron game. He had a face like, "why the hell would anyone care about them."He would yell out of OSU did anything like run for 8 yards or make a tackle. Even when OSU was up 28 to something. I think he was doing it in spite of us Akron fans. He was by himself, and doing it by himself in an arrogant way.Why do we bring up OSU all the time???? Go look at Sunday's paper. Do you see that big thing of OSU on the top of the front page. Go look at the sports section, do you see that big OSU write up. I'm sick of seeing OSU dominate this area. I'm tired of it. I'm pissed about it. When someones pissed about something, they're going to stand up against it. That's what I'm doing. I'm making my stand against OSU in this city. You're only feeding the OSU positive attention in this area. I'm feeding the negative.The goal, to turn this area from Buckeye land into Zip land.There's no irony about me saying negative things and complaining about OSU. If I have ever complained about OSU, I saw something to spark it. I'm standing up against it. I have nothing wrong with anyone rooting for OSU if they actually go there, are alumni, or have a child that goes there. But when someones lived in Akron all of their life, and thinks OSU is the only team around, that's a problem.It's time to change this areas attitude. This is Zip Land.

nope, I've yet to go to a soccer game, this year :blink: I'm going to try to make it to the next one.

And by the way, I was born and raised an OSU fan. I even grew up wearing a bunch of OSU clothes, even had an OSU winter coat. You know what I think about OSU now

sgm, when someone says anything negative about OSU, your so quick to jump in and defend OSU. Understand that a lot of Akron fans are tired of seeing OSU, OSU, OSU all over this damn city. We're proud of Akron and we want to see more Akron but apparently all these front runners are keeping that from happening. So we're taking a stand. We're telling people that it's ok to root against OSU. And everytime we say something of that sort, you go ballistic. I've looked throughout the history of your posts and this is true. Aren't you tired of seeing OSU all over the ABJ. The Zips get horrible coverage by them. Wouldn't you be pissed if you go to a bar to watch an Akron game and you have to complain to get the game on.If we continue to support OSU, the attitudes in this city are not going to change. When Crone says, "be proud of your school," he's saying, "Stand up against the locals who think OSU is the only college in Ohio."And he's been reading ZipsNation for awhile, he decided to register after he read one of your posts.I understand you root for OSU, but everytime you stick up for them, your making it seem like you care too much about them. Sometimes you sound like another one of those front runners from this city. You've explained that your not, I get the point, but aren't you tired of the Zips being ignored by everyone around here, even the ABJ? Who are they ignoring Akron for????This is what OSU has been doing to Akron the past decade when it comes to everything including recruiting It's time we give them hell for this

Blue & Gold, I agree. I don't think sgm ever went to OSU, your talking about BuckZip I believe. My beef with OSU is that they are a Columbus school, yet a lot of people in Akron think it's the only school in Ohio.Thinking it's 'OK' to support the Buckeyes is your choice, but understand that OSU is in Akron's way to becoming the state's powerhouse.Would the residents that live around Texas Tech root for Texas??? The ones that live near Oklahoma State root for Oklahoma??? Oregon State root for Oregon. Arizona State root for Arizona???? etc..........Maybe we're not called Ohio, or the University of Ohio at Akron. But OSU will always be in are way.

Buffalo is the worst. I don't think Can't is the last place team. Can't will probably beat Buffalo. That will be their only win.

When OSU starts to lose, those front runners are going to need a new team to root for. Akron's that team.
