  1. Truth in advertising laws require that we disclose that while she is not the first ever Zip to reach the NCAAs, she will be the first freshman female from the UofA participating in the event since Zippyrifle was born (which is almost the same as being the first ever).
  2. It's gratifying to see the Bum knows a good prediction when he steals one.
  3. AHAH, there's the problem....ESPN is in charge of MAC scheduling and first they schedule ACC and BE games.
  4. There are a few holes in a sieve. However, the good news is your plan has been nominated for the Black Hole in Football Space Award.
  5. with a half time score of 17 to 13 the question is: where is this game being played?The Answer: IN EPT.
  6. OK I give. Which is the interesting part?
  7. Problem is he may want to spend too much time teaching the Tango.
  8. Going back and reading my own and other members post on trying to fix the Mac., I have decided we should not merge with the Big 10, we should merge with the SEC. My apologies to all who have already spent time working on making my previous suggestion come true. Please get on this idea right away.
  9. We could accomplish several objectives if we merge with the BIG 10. Let's get right on that.
  10. Only three games left? Did the Zips get disqualified from the MAC tournament? I hope you have not put a hex on the team that cannot be removed.
  11. I think with all the good linemen we have we should consider the 6 - 2 - 3. Of course the 6-2-3 is not as effective as the 7 - 3 - 4, but several of the MAC referees can count.
  12. I voted for "non MAC" and think we should start up a rivalry with USC, especially if we can get their football team to come to our place every other year.
  13. The PD article on Mack (the same one that gives him credit for the fieldhouse, so I can't be sure of the accuracy) says we're renovating the JAR. Maybe we're removing the corners to give the upper section a rounded look. Maybe we're removing the track (it causes the biggest amounts of complaints) and having the seating go all the way up. I have no idea what it could be, but I know that it's supposedly going to start very shortly after this basketball season is finished, which is good timing. Renovated JAR + Zeke = very good year for basketball.Time to weigh in.A) The four pillars in the corners support the weight of the roof. They CANNOT be moved. Thus, the corners are nearly worthless for seating.B ) The seating can be increased by eliminating the indoor track. Also, the end zones offer good possibilities, especially if the AK-Rowdies would grow in the number of regularly participating students.C) There is an ongoing study to build a NEW arena. Current proposal is to build an eleven thousand seat facility directly across the street from Canal Park. There is some squabbling about whether to make a basketball only arena or one that would include a hockey rink. From the four color drawings I have seen it would be a winner as a basketball only facility. Note: Over the past several months the quality and quantity of these drawings have gone from pen and ink to the quality four color drawings like those used to promote the football stadium.D) If I were a betting man (and I am) I would bet that a new arena with in five years is a much more likely prospect than a renovated JAR. You can put lipstick on pig and it will still be a pig.Id really like to see said drawing as an hour-long google search got me nothing.Given current economic conditions, in your search did you try the key words, "pipe dream."?
  14. When are we going to get a new firing range so that we can recruit the type of shooters we need to capture an NCAA title? Do you think it would be possible to convert the new football stadium into a firing range and move those big lunks back to the Rubber Bowl?
  15. I have heard significant chatter that we may be playing a team from Mars as our 12th game this year.
  16. What those two are doing is illegal in 18 states.I'll go with the Zips by 14.
  17. I think it might be good to sign this guy, but as far as the Zips go, the question is "Does recruiting hurt?I'm not certain about every year, but in 2010 I'm pretty sure it will be Payneless.
  18. I never said they wouldn't be able to play Indiana as scheduled. I'm just saying the project will not be done for 6 weeks after that.
  19. Come on. It really irritates me, and just about everyone else on this board when you refer to the University of South Dakota as South Dakota U.
  20. Sounds like Zeke is getting ready for the MAC. The only difference is, in the MAC after getting hit in the crotch, he will be called for charging.
  21. The same Loyola team that just beat Butler at Butler. Go figure.
  22. You have the spread correct, but the points wrong.
