Zipmeister

OK some of you may think Zach and Go are nuts, but I know for a fact that they are correct because I have seen the up-to-no-gooders they are referring to riding around in silent helicopters.

Maybe the two of them have been assigned the task of assuring that the live stream is up to ZipsNation standards. That would be addressing technical difficulties not of their own making.

One source has the spread at 7 although I think the actual spread will be closer to their guess assuming the game was played at Akron. http://www.sportsmemo.com/forum/index.php?...ac94307556b8ff3

Even if this video were shown at actual speed instead of speeded up, that kid is quick.

That's it then. Let's vulcanize the Minuteboys.

Not so fast there gman. I'll wait till I hear from NewZipsFan before I predict the Toledo game outcome, but I have a feeling the Zips will thrash UMass by 14.

I do not sit by myself in a corner wearing a trenchcoat. There are several of us. Seriously, if you ever attend a swimming meet and want to lose weight, wear a trenchcoat. Otherwise, make sure you can strip down to shorts and a t-shirt. They keep those places semi-comfortable for the swimmers, not the spectators.

It's disappointing any time we lose to a Canadian school in any sport, but if the lady Buff swimmers hadn't backed off in the last two events of their the meet against the Zips the final score would have been 200 to 98. Hats off to the ladies from north of the border.

Hey Zach, Any possibility you jumped the gun a bit on this announcement? No hint of a verbal from this guy on ESPN, Scout or Rivals and the "profile" you linked to says he plans on attending the University of Akron; no mention of playing football for the Zips. Perhaps he verbaled for the as yet unannounced new archery team.

Obviously not all coaches are self-serving ogres that care not a wit about their players or they would routinely yank scholarships from end-of-the-bench players who were injured assisting a person or animal in danger.

That is exactly what he is saying. The renewable one year scholarship may also not be renewed if the coach doesn't like the way the player buttons his shirt, to protest weather forecasts, because it's Tuesday, or any other reason or non-reason. The best way for a player who is deep on the bench and who wants to maintain a scholarship is to get injured, preferably while assisting someone (or an animal) in danger.

Why are there NO RW points for the rifle match against Morehead? This is an important early season match and student/fan support is critical. Just because a few spectators got winged last year is no reason to penalize the team. Go Zips.

one = single two = couple three = a few In dog years it happened a few years ago.

Can't we just all get along?

REALLY interesting stat on the game report at GoZips.com. According the the release, Akron has now won 25 of 37 games against MSU and 22 of 33 against all teams from the Big Ten. Go figure.

To the uninformed this statement sounds pretty dramatic. They don't realize you have three.

My comment on his archery skills was pretty darned inflammatory. Thanks to the mods for obliterating the post. However, I do have the perfect nickname for our new recruit, Logan "Bulls eye" Cox.

I recall how pleased I was when Gordon Larson led the team to a 6-1 record in his first year as head coach; the year after Joe McMullin suffered through a 2-8 season. Let's bring back Gordon.

Only time will tell if we can get this situation turned around. But I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we can, And I’m hoping that we do so quickly. My main concern, to date, is the unimpressive 2013 recruiting class. Although a few of the recruits chose Akron over other decent schools So many are undersized. Unless the quality of recruits improves substantially we are destined to remain at the bottom of the MAC Certainly it’s a bit early to give up the ship; Keep the faith. Somewhere out there are the guys we need to get the job done.

Have to agree with you about the map five and dime. Romney doesn't even know where the 54th through 57th states are located.

Have you been holding out on us regarding commitments?

Maybe you have repressed the memory; perfectly understandable.

I knew trouble was brewing when they hired Brian Kelly as their new coach. I recommend his immediate replacement with Gerry Faust.

I wish you hadn't brought up the '68 campaign. I'm still traumatized about the assassination attempt on Pat Paulsen in Memorial Hall that year.
