K.e.n.t. Invents a New Way to Lose
zippy5 replied to Captain Kangaroo's topic in Akron Zips Football
Loser of the coin toss gets their choice at the half, unless the winner defers. So say you're playing Madden and choose kick, the other team receives at half. That's not true in real life. If you choose to kick, and not defer, the other team still gets their choice at the half. So our dingus head coach told the captains to kick, and low and behold we kicked both stinkin halves. -
Promotions are sponsored so that doesn't hold much water. Somebody could have been contacting businesses to sponsor a bobblehead or something, doesn't take much creative genius there.

Nice work. Good to see a nice student turnout.

We've won 7 games in the last 3 years. We played Howard. Rack up some wins, there'll be nice crowds. NEO loves football, they'll come. Comparing to MBB is apples to oranges. They win in a dump, we lose in a palace. If the FB team starts winning MAC championships, then we can compare attendance.

Somewhat. Was probably a bit of Terry going vanilla when we got ahead.

This is awesome

I've been curious what the official plan was for Conner. He played DE as injuries forced it in the bowl, but I assumed they'd keep him away from that this year. They have a pretty decent stable of backs, so maybe it'll work out. Definitely not something you see much anymore.

Guy on the bottom middle looks like Carlos Gomez

Let me state again, this was not a criticism of UA, just a general comment on golf outings. The string and mulligan make outings not so fun. I'm sure there are other ways to get 20 bucks off of folks at outings (drinks/raffles/skins/skill prizes).
-
Put it on a tee for the zipmeister...
-
I agree. However #1 and #3 contradict each other. In terms of money raised I would assume the string and mulligans are a very miniscule percentage of money raised. Good for the program raising more money, but just saying my experience with outings that let you buy string and mulligans turn out to have a lot of bummed out people.
-
I disagree, 20 under should be good for 1st at most outings However, 20 under shouldn't be possible. Outings with the string and mulligans are dumb.
-
I think the best part of this deal is the MBB coverage.
-
Could you disclose your valuation method please?
-
The string is the worst thing that has ever happened to a golf outing. <Insert zipmeister comment here of a worse event>

Todd Thomas is a beast. I'm curious how Pitt's D will end up looking however.. It was poor last year with perhaps one of the best seasons ever from a DT. Talk of James Connor (ran for 220+ in the Pizza Bowl) playing some DE. Will be interesting.

What's wrong with February?

It's tough to be different when 2 of our 3 colors are the same

Near visitor's bench, ie, courtside. Have you ever been there? Point is, why be one of the .1% to upset the media for maybe an extra row of seating? Is it really worth it?
-
Taxpayer, media is Courtside at the Pete.
-
10 years, that's nothing. You'd think they'd at least take a 30 year mortgage out for a 50 million dollar place?
-
Regional banks are probably the best bet. Key, Fifth Third, PNC, etc.. Wouldn't count out first energy, but they have sponsored two stadiums in the past 5 years now.
-
Or possibly because their home field is grass.
-
Yeah. It's okay in college as long as they aren't on the field at the same time, obviously. It happens with so many guys on a team.. Numbers that can be used for multiple positions (single digits, teens, etc.) are usually used twice.
