We still want to go where we’re going. There’s a big picture out there and I’m not going to lose sight of it. We’re going to focus on the big picture and where we’re going.”... “We’ve got to look at it and evaluate,” Bowden said. “We’ll look at it and see if we’re doing the right things for [Chapman]. I’m not going to panic or waffle on it.”

I think I read somewhere that Tervell Beck moved out of the area as well. Is he still @ CCC?

That is pretty insane.

I spent $55 on that PPV.

I am utterly unfamiliar with Periscope - though my first impression was fantastic. They mentioned that they were going to preview the jerseys later sometime today. How are we supposed to know when they may begin live streaming that?

That was great! Man, gotta love Cody Grice. He's becoming one of my favorite all-time Zips.

That was pretty awesome.

I learn something new on here every day. Love ZNo!

AJ Coney must be a real athlete. He's listed @ both WR on offense and CB on defense while also being our punt returner. I hope we've found something there.

http://www.ohio.com/news/break-news/ua-will-pay-stipends-to-athletes-1.620299 The stipend will be paid across all sports and all teams, according to Chief Financial Officer and acting Director of Athletics Nathan Mortimer. And it will come out of the athletic budget.

Is this the first time we've had fireworks following a game at the new stadium? The RubberDucks have a nice fireworks show every Friday night & they nearly sell Canal Park out. Most people aren't there because they're passionate about minor league baseball. They just want a nice night out with the family. Fireworks help a lot. The Zips need to learn a lot from the RubberDucks.

You beat me to the punch. I was going to say how I wished the ABJ would treat the UA as well as the Canton Repository treats the McKinley Bulldogs. If you read the Repository, you'd think a ticket to a McKinley football or basketball game was the hot ticket. They recognize that the high school gives the community their sense of community; sense of place, which in turn helps sales of the paper. If all you care about are Cleveland sports & the OSU Buckeyes, well, there are plenty of other news sources available.

This will enable us to expand the soccer stadium, if needed/wanted.

So much going on right now, I almost filed this story under two already existing topics: "Scarborough's Next Move," and/or "Baseball Gone." But this might be worth a topic of it's own. It's the ABJ report on the newly-proposed main entrance replacing the baseball field. Comprehensive renovations would also involve a relocation of the track and the demolition of Galucci Hall. http://www.ohio.com/news/break-news/university-of-akron-considers-11-2-million-in-improvements-including-new-main-entrance-to-campus-1.619785#

Thaaaaank you.
