I hope Biggy doesn't show up.

Why would we be looking forward to seeing one of OU's players reaching to grab Ham-and-Cheese's butt? I knew you fellas were weird over there.
-
This was from last year. I don't know why it's still pinned. Can we get rid of it?
-
I think we may have some fun with this dude.
But I think he looks more like this fella from Fraggle Rock.

There is a reason that the AK-Rowdies chant "MVP" for Nate Linhart.
-
I'll be there. There will be a better ladies crowd than the past games with the students back on campus. There's also an AK-Rowdies meeting after the women's game, so you'll probably see a few more for that.

Me?!!!? Athlete!??!!!? ARE YOU KIDDING?!!!? Unless they have an intercollegiate Beer Pong team, I was not an athlete!

Nicely done Sami! Good to hear you make it out there. Can't beat OU in overtime today. Looks like everyone is 2-1.

They're gonna have shirts on hand too. Here's the e-mail:**********Dear AK-ROWDIES Members,This upcoming week marks one of the biggest in recent Zips basketball history.

OH SNAP!!! ROWDIES CHECK YOUR E-MAILS! At the meeting after the OU game, check this out...."AK-ROWDIES members will also have a chance to get their lower level seats for the men?s contest against Can't State before gates open Wednesday night during the women?s game.

If I may have the floor for a moment, I'd like to add my two cents here:
Thank You. -
Hey now, I went to OU for a quarter. It wasn't that easy! Of course it might have been if I wasn't so drunk and stoned every day and night. It's rough to hang with the hippies.
-
Yea, the selling of the other side of the student section was ridiculous. I really don't understand them giving those seats away at halftime. We need the north side full in the first half when the opposing team is shooting at that basket.
-
I love the way Coach Coles interacts with the fans. I remember that from last year and the Miami announcers even acknowledged it on the radio tonight.
-
The attendance is going to increase when the students get back from break. I really have no problem with the band sitting on the floor since most of the members are louder than the actual fans. It can be difficult to get the band to jump up and down though. It seemed that the Nevada game and the Miami game, the other team came out flat in the second half with the rowdies jumping and screaming at them. And to be honest, until the students prove they can pack the student section every home game of the season, let the band sit there. At least they're loud and faithful.
-
How was the attendance tonight? I couldn't make it, but I listened to Miami's play-by-play guys on the Internet cuz for some reason I can never get a clean signal up here on the radio. Of course they sounded like the refs were for the Zips and they ripped Dials a few times. I think Nick Dials might be the most hated player in the MAC except for by Akron fans. I really don't know why.
-
Sounds like a plan to me. Unfortunately, I don't see it happening. It'll probably be like last year where people will know someone in the front of the line and jump everyone else.
-
That wasn't his fault. It was the fellas that jumped on him during their celebration of his touchdown. Jackasses!number ten: Ted Ginn twisted his ankle. -
In response to Akron not being able to make free throws, a few of the Rowdies came up with a new free throw routine that debuted at Loyola and worked at OU. We came up with it in the 2nd half of the Loyola game. Rather than putting our arms up and saying "whoosh," we switched it up and put our arms down. Then in one motion, bring the arms back up and throw them down as you say "whoosh." We failed to do it on one of C-Mid's free throws at OU and he missed it. I don't remember the numbers for the Loyola game, but minus that one we failed to "whoosh" on, we were 11-13 at OU. Who says I'm superstitious?

I just got this e-mail and figured I'd post it here in case some of the Rowdies still aren't getting the mailings.*****Hey everyone!Hope you all had a great break. I have a few AK-ROWDIES updates for you:Thursday, January 11th, the Men's basketball team will take on Miami (OH) at 7:00 p.m. at the James A. Rhodes Arena. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. I know you are all either back in Akron or returning sometime this weekend, so hopefully you will be able to make it there to support our boys!Tuesday, January 16th, the Women's basketball team will host Ohio University at 7:00 p.m. at the James A. Rhodes Arena. This is going to be a big day for the AK-ROWDIES. There will be wings for AK-R0WDIES members before the game at 6:00 p.m. up on the track. Also, Coach Dambrot will be speaking to the AK-ROWDIES before the women's contest tip off. After the game, there will be a meeting to answer any questions you may have or to give any suggestions/comments or any concerns to the board. ALSO! this meeting is going to be the pep rally to prep for Wednesday's game against K-ENT (CAN'T )STATE. The meeting/rally should last about half an hour so make sure you hang around after the girls game.Wednesday, January 17TH, the Men's team is tipping off against K-ENT (Can't) STATE. The game starts at 7:00 p.m. and doors will open at 6:00 p.m. If you don't already know, which you should, Can't State is a HUGE rival for us and it would mean a lot to the boys if you would come and support.**As always, you have to get there early to get the seating behind the hoops! For all of these games, the doors open at 6:00 p.m. at Rhodes Arena. Make sure your there!!***No matter WHAT time it is, K-ent State still sucks~ LET'S GO ZIPS!!!*Jessica M.

Playing several MAC games on STO makes alot more sense than showing six Akron home games and one on the road. Even in addition to these seven games, it will provide MAC fans a chance to see the other teams before we play them. I guess Sports Time Ohio just couldn't find any room in their schedule around the replays of Classic Indians Games, Suckeyes Talk, and Cleveland All Pro Wrestling. They do have a show on Wednesday nights about CSU basketball that I have not actually seen yet, but the idea is very cool!Also, why does STO always show crap about Notre Dame? There's even a picture of an ND pennant on the banner on the top of their website amid tons of Cleveland gear.
-
I may be a little biased, but after a tough road loss to OU, I say the Zips come out firing. 145-12 Zips.
-
I honestly think that 9 out of 10 times, OSU beats Florida. I hate OSU, but Florida got the best of them tonight.

LinkWHY!?? WHY!?? WHY!!??Six of our seven televised games are at the JAR! The other one? CAN'T!!!! Fifteen Friggin' Minutes Away!How are we supposed to fill the JAR when people can stay at home and watch the games?There's a reason that back in the day Browns games weren't televised if they weren't sold out. Get your a$$e$ in the seats!

Apparently he couldn't cut it in the prison league, so he's playing roundball at Can't now.
