Elton Says Zips Arguably Best in MAC
RootforRoo44 replied to Dave in Green's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
I think that this is the greatest idea to come from this forum. Makes me wish I was 19-20 years old again as you can bet I would be "showing me knees" at all the games. GOOOOO ZIPSfunny, i mentioned this during the Can't game to a bunch of the North Side Rowdies (where i stand) and noone really got it or liked the idea...hmmmAnd if alot of you havn't noticed, there are only about 9 or 10 regulars who frequent the North side, so i guess ill have to get all of them together on this one. -
Western / Akron prediction thread
RootforRoo44 replied to The Hip Zip's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Ill best you.... Akron 77, WMU 38 -
speaking of that, the soda i got at the game last weekend was really flat. I complained and they gave me something else but man it was bad.

Man, it truly is awful. I like the colors and theme better but the whole layout is just terrible.

Once a Can't State Thug ALWAYS a Can't State Thug
RootforRoo44 replied to RootforRoo44's topic in Akron Zips Football
Someone has some racial issues going on. That explains a lot. Why does race always have to be brought up in situations like this?If it's a white guy who hits a black guy, then all the blacks call it out as an act of racial hatred. Then if the roles are switched white guys piss and moan about the double standard that exists(not that that happened here, but I'm surprised it hasn't yet).Can't we just admit that Harrison is a great player who made a scumbag move? Everyone has their moments. Perhaps he was being held all day. Does that legitimize what he did? That's really a question that's subjective to the opinion of the fan. No one can argue one way or the other. Let's move on. There's more important things going on in the nation(zipsnation, that is). And as adults and college graduates/students you should all realize that.Oh i agree completely. I only posted that originally because i found it funny that of all things the guy that commits the biggest cheapshot (and one seen by the most people) is a Can't State alum. -
Central Michigan (6-13, 3-4 MAC) Last week: 11 The Chippewas shot the lights out against Ohio, then couldn't buy a basket at Akron. The defense still can't stop any halfway decent offense, so they're going to live and die by their shooting. An encouraging sign, though, is a team that had been fouling a ton went -8 in fouls the previous two games. Ending the free throw parade by opponents would go a long way toward keeping CMU in games.=====================Maybe that's because there were 50+ fouls and Akron had 28 of them or something. What a misleading stat.

I agree completely. But then again I think this is the case for 75% of successful QB's. You can't win a game just having a great Quarterback, it takes all 11 guys on offense to be successful. Actually it can take 7 or 8 great guys and a few mediocre ones. My God look at Trent Dilfer in 00-01/Super Bowl XXXV as a great example.

Once a Can't State Thug ALWAYS a Can't State Thug
RootforRoo44 replied to RootforRoo44's topic in Akron Zips Football
Of course as a browns fan i would take Harrison on my team. Then again i'd take Satan, Hitler, and John Wayne Gacy if they could win us a Super Bowl. That's not really the point though, he punched someone in the back and CHEATED and should get a massive fine and suspension for doing so. Also, I'm not really sure what race had to do with it? Actually trying to make this something about race is something a Can't State left wing nutjob would try to do. GP1, is that where your allegiance lays? -

Not to rain on your parade but its the NATIONAL Football League. Not the INTERNATIONAL Football League.I had to work in the student union the entire game and missed it all! For the 5.5 hours I was there I had about 7 ppl an hour! When I counted my drawer I had only $5 more then what it costs to pay me for the night!!!good to see my money going to good use then. -

amen, that was ridiculous. Personally i thought his arm was going forward. fitting, essentially a slap on the wrist for a Can't person doing something wrong -

Gotta love seeing a classic example of a product of Can't State cheap shotting a Cardinals player with punches to the back. James Harrison should be suspended for multiple games. -
that's because it sure looked like it happened after the horn. The red lights on the scoreboards didnt got off on time.

Can't State Ad in the Buchtelite
RootforRoo44 replied to ksu sucks's topic in General UA & Campus Discussion
i'm as big of a conservative as they get and that guy is far more than misguided -
If his Akron commit was indeed inaccurate, how could he be heading in a "new direction?" Wouldn't he be heading in the same direction he was heading all along?Shady stuff...but it happens every year. At least he gave us a week's notice to find a replacement.Well from that quote i can gather that we are better off without his confused self, maybe he is more suited for somewhere like Can't.
-
You couldn't ask for a better source than that, and you have to like such a positive attitude. But I doubt he would be back for a game before he works himself back into shape. Is he even practicing with the team yet? Last time I saw him at a home game he was still not even in uniform.You would think that would be a reliable source but then again he could be just EXTREMELY optimistic about it. Honestly, who knows what the heck is going on here. We sure could use him though.

Well sorry to hear you aren't on the same bus with us. But i guess i wouldnt say that being a conservative is the most important thing here, just not being a far left loon is good enough. As long as you dont believe the polar ice caps will melt by 2013, Obama is Jesus #2, and eating animals is murder than you are alright.Last time i checked Libertarians didn't believe in any of that. -
According to his statements on Rivals he never commited here to begin with. He said it was a mistake.a mistake? What's that supposed to mean?

"I'm 50, I have a seven-year contract, and I could be content coaching here for the rest of my life,"gotta love that.

i had heard personally from Ronnie that he would be back by "YSU or at least this week".

Can't State Ad in the Buchtelite
RootforRoo44 replied to ksu sucks's topic in General UA & Campus Discussion
It looks like most on here are conservatives... must be a correlation with being a Zips fan: make no excuses, fight for everything you get, so that you earn it, it isn't handed to you.That, and conservatives have high speed internet.wow so i was always afraid to get too political on here. Besides it being off topic usually, i figured most people at Akron were just on average a little further Right than Can't staters. I guess that's not the case, most of you seem pretty informed and pissed off about the Buchelite's usual garbage. and that is why we are all Akron fans and understand why Can't State SUCKS. -

I read some of the paper but after getting angered like usual by all of the liberal propaganda, i put it down. So i didnt even see that. Funny thing is, 2 days ago i wrote an email to the beacon journal complaining about the slew of cant basketball ads on their pages. -
cvetinovic is going to be a HUGE player. I'm real excited about him.
