I was told they released everywhere in the lower bowl and were talking about opening Loudville (her words)

Dear FTR collective. Please add a 3XL option. I will gladly pay $5-10 more.

How the Zips could get screwed Friday night

They hang a banner for it. We add a number to an existing banner. -
Please bring back the surplus sale… please please please.

UMass enjoys fouling the hell out of people and the refs actually call it. My fear would be a game in the tourney where the refs decide to “let em play” or that they can’t call too many fouls for the entertainment value, and then UMass gets the benefit.

“They don’t love this place” The place they just showed up to 4 months ago? Yeah, no $h!t.

Increasing JAR Attendance/Engaging the Fans
pdt1420 replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Gotta say something about my first experience with $2 beers… there’s gotta be a better way. A line out the door at the top of the stairs… the slowest process ever for a cashless transaction, and one beer per person? My wife waited in line while I waited with the kids and she was pissed she couldn’t get a different adult drink at the same time. That’s just over policing. Come on, think of how the Tribe does it pregame. Beer guys all over the place, you can get two (or more), tap while he cracks it open. So much better. -
What did the women think of seeing four shots made in one period?
-
Alot of looooong rebounds also.

To be fair, there was an “s” in decades-long. I saw the Singletary punch in person, and I’m reminded by a stiff back every morning that my college days were more than 10 years ago. Zips by a million. kSU-CKS

Both these guys are fantastic. Evan is the prototype for me as a representative of Akron Basketball (and we’ve had alot of good ones). Smart, charismatic, funny, spiritual, family/teammate oriented… and the dude loves country music and Major League?! Come on. Especially right before the Kent game and their decades-long history of thugs and idiots. And I don’t know who the interviewer is, but I’ve watched a couple of his across multiple sports and he’s GREAT. Well prepared but not stiff, asks great follow-ups, and puts the athletes at ease. Great content… keep it up UA.

Great to see the progress. I knew it was BS related to the Arth exodus.

ChatGPT is great, but can a server rack take a tshirt cannon shot dead center from 10 yards?

2024-25 Post Mortem and Looking Ahead to 2025-26

He’s got a look in his eye that he don’t mess around. -
Go get ‘em Cavs

I looked at the coaches section which showed yearly results. The worst year (880) was the transition year that shows as Arth+Joe. Not sure where to assign that, especially if changing coaches causes some guys to quit school.
-
People keep banging on Joe… wasn’t there just a post that it has improved every year he’s been here? And been above the threshold the last two years?   How is that him not “leading young men”?

2024 Ohio High School Championships
pdt1420 replied to GJGood's topic in Akron Zips Football Recruiting
I hate how the two official answers are 16 or 12… you can write-in 8 later if you remember. -
Agree. As a former OT with a big waist and even bigger feet, I enjoyed shopping Zips gear that actually fit. Plus it was great to pick up cleats for my three boys. Cheaper than Dicks and in sweet Akron colors.
-
Also ran into Romeo Travis on the concourse and told him I loved him and Doug Penno is a bitch.

This was me, except surrounded by Miami fans. I told them they were soft, that the floor mopper was going to tear a tricep with all the work he had to do from their flopping, and that they wouldn't shoot 75% for the game. Miami fan told me to get used to it, and I told him I’m used to being at the championship game, but they only show up once a decade. And that their wives all have plastic surgery. And that it’s going to be a long lonely private jet flight back to Miami. Thank you Zips for the greatest game I’ve been to in a looooong time.

We can neg ourselves all we want… it’s a step in the right direction. We keep winning and we’ll pick up more. We didn’t need to be undefeated to get that vote either.
-
A Yale or Princeton victory and we might be there right now.
-
I agree not that high of a bar and it’s a first step. Also agree that another two weeks and I think we get that vote.
