  1. I stayed at home today, but watched the game. If it is inflated, there could have not been 15k actual bodies there today. I'm too depressed to even comment about your second sentence.
  2. and our win is over the #9 RPI team!!!
  3. ESPN had a short report on the game during the Miami/Temple game halftime.PREDICTIONGiven the relative lack of sporting activity tonight, I think there is a good chance a play from the game will make ESPNs top ten plays on Thursday.
  4. especially ones as outdated as these.
  5. Remember we are dealing with all the information. I certainly would have broken it up knowing what we all know. But do we know what McQueary knew at the time? Additionally from a Joe Pa point of view, he gets info from a GA, he does what he needs to do with it. Tells the AD and a guy who is in charge of the PSU Police department, that is like telling the commissioner of a police department. To me that is as handled as it could be.Now if McQueary saw what he says he saw in the indictment, how does he continue for 10+ years seeing Sandusky on campus and never questioning what happened. For Joe Pa he went to the authorities, they said they would investigate the accusation, if Sandusky wasn't removed or suspended by them, what else was he to do? Additionally there were external investigations of Sandusky by the youth organization he was involved with and they did nothing. No one is right on how this was handled, because it went on and too many innocent boys were taken advantage of, but of all parties Joe Pa is the one getting railroaded even though he told authorities, they blame him for not telling everyone?JoePa told just about everybody other than the people he was supposed to according to Penn. law.
  6. Very interesting selective application of the Pa. law which requires anyone who knows of a case of child abuse to report it to the police. Apparently it only applies if you don't tell someone higher up the administrative ladder. The G.A. witnessed the event, but didn't tell police. He wasn't arrested. He told JoePa, who didn't tell the police, but he wasn't arrested. The two guys who get the info third hand from JoePa get arrested because they didn't tell the police. They should have told the University Pres., then they would be off the hook.
  7. The Zmeister has a nice ring to it.
  8. You aren't in charge of calculated paid attendance figures at the Info are you?
  9. Wow, now you are calming the water and addressing issues that don't even exist!Now that's proactive.
  10. I think we need to resolve the "should we count overtime points" issue right away. This cannot wait til the end of the season. It will just fester if left unsettled.
  11. If there is a 1% chance of the deal happening, how much time should TW put into it?50 hours. If the probability is higher, he should spend less time on it. (e.g., if the probability is 99.9% he should spend 1 minute on it.)
  12. Odd...I was told Clayton Moore's passer rating is much better than what we had in 2010? How can we be scoring fewer points? We even have a better running game in 2011?We are not. Please consider the source. In 2010 we scored 121 points through 9 games and in 2011 we scored 138. The 2010 total included 13 OT points. Obviously GP1 was not a finance or math major.There is noting inaccurate about my facts.get the h out of here I believe his point was that based on the same number of games we are scoring almost a whole TWO points more per game than last year. No wonder that QB rating is way up.
  13. suggest you read the grand jury report.
  14. If you guys could all dress up in Zips rifle team gear to do the chants that would be extra cool.
  15. Can Huggins coach football?
  16. thats precisely my point. taking weather conditions at gametime will only show a part of the story as you have the added variable of "marquee" matchups and the playoffs. It would still be another good way to look at attendance, I was just pointing out a valid flaw in the data such considerations would produce.It is critical in this type of analysis to identify both invalid and valid flaws.
  17. I admit that I may be mistaken, but in reading the posts in this thread I'm beginning to sense that some of you are starting to become disheartened with the Akron football program. All I can say is hang in there. Things are about to turn around. We have one of the best recruiters in the business working his tail off as our head coach. The four and five star recruits are about to start flocking in.
  18. Of course we have to play the second half. I have the over in the over/under "bone-headed icoach calls" pool for the second half.
  19. In which area of the game will he make the most bone-headed calls: offense, defense, or special teams?
  20. Fixed it for ya, JZ. BTW, didn't the blackout crowd look cool?I thought they stole the idea of having the crowd dress up as empty bleachers from us.On a related note, the Red Hawk's crowd for a Thursday night game is a 4 star lock to look the same.
  21. What about that do you find interesting, Good Doctor?Well one thing that's kind of interesting is ESPNU has him as a one star.
  22. Based strictly on comments I have read here over the last few years, I think the current athletic administration is doing a better job than at least 30% of all DIII schools when it comes to promotion and making paying customers to their sporting events feel appreciated. I could do a better job with Dave in Green and three monkeys as my assistants (or with just two monkeys).
