  1. Anybody catch some of the comments being posted on the UA Facebook page? I'd post a screen shot but this is supposed to be a family friendly forum.
  2. How much money are you planning to wager on the game?
  3. If Polytechnic is a word that most people don't know the meaning of, why in Hell would you want to use it to describe UA? This gets dumber by the minute. Edit: Just saw that I restated what Zach already said. Sorry. I just started typing after I read the quote Dave posted by Scarborough and went outside for some fresh air before my head exploded. Next time I will try to read the entire thread first. If, in the coming weeks, you read a newspaper column about a rural Ashland County man dying of spontaneous cranial combustion, you will know I was unsuccessful.
  4. Question for those looking at attendance numbers (I'm too lazy to look myself): What MAC opponent draws the 2nd best crowds after Can't? My guess is Ohio but would be interested to know if any of you have taken note of that.
  5. I don't foresee a home game versus Canada boosting attendance.
  6. I disagree. Can't has about 13 fans that care about football.
  7. It would probably be more beneficial for both Can't and Akron to remain separate schools that decided to drop intercollegiate athletics.
  8. I've changed my mind. If we can transform this lousy old university into a polytechnic, we should. Immediately. Since I read Dave's last post I can't help but fantasize about the day that the institution formerly known as The University of Akron might be mentioned in the same breath as the prestigious UW-Stout!
  9. Did I miss it or is nobody is interested in inviting Mizell to a camp?
  10. Question: Which is worse? Lying about changing the name of our University or lying about kids trading trinkets for tattoos?
  11. There are now 42 bowl games, which is beyond ridiculous. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2015/05/05/college-football-bowl-games-austin-orlando-tucson/26965461/ http://www.sportingnews.com/ncaa-football/story/2015-05-06/42-bowl-games-on-2015-schedule-below-500-teams-attendance-tv-ratings-concerns What's more ridiculous than 42 bowl games is that the Zips still can't make it to one. http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2015/05/with_continued_expansion_bowl_games_are_nearing_pa.html Most schools lose money to be in bowl games. There are dozens of articles on the subject. The people who stand to reap the biggest financial rewards from these bowls seem to be the CEOs. http://espn.go.com/college-football/bowls12/story/_/id/8820569/time-bowls-do-more-their-own
  12. I am pretty sure his streaming will suck no matter which one UA chooses.
  13. Gabby Johnson weighs in. . . “I wash born here, an I wash raished here, and dad gum it, I went to shcool here, an no sidewindin' bushwackin', hornswagglin' cracker croaker is gonna rename me alma mater.”
  14. If and when the press conference is held to announce this name change, they might as well announce the termination of the athletic program in conjunction. Current support is anemic, but what little support there is will dry up for the Ohio Polytechnic Institute and State University Zips.
  15. Extra points to ZfP for using "jagoff" in his rant. Irony points to Balsy for correcting someone else's spelling.
  16. As the master plan becomes more obvious, you have to realize that the A-Roo must be erased from our culture. The A is going away. Perhaps you could persuade Dr. Scarborough to consider commissioning an OT-Roo design down the road. For now, the Z will have to suffice.
  17. They must be putting the Z at center court instead of the A-Roo.
  18. Evidently, he even changed up his graphics for the original post.

  20. With only a couple of changes, I have rewritten the fight song: We cheer the OT Blue and Gold, We cheer as the colors unfold, We pledge anew we're all for you, As the team goes crashing through, FIGHT! FIGHT! We cheer the OT warriors bold, For a fight that's a sight to behold, So we stand up, and cheer and shout For the OT Blue and Gold. Zzzip! Zip go the Zippers! Zzzip! Zip go the Zippers! Gold and Blue, F.K.S.U. All for you and the Zippers too!
