  1. Nice early crowd. Good luck to both teams. Ahhhhh, screw that. Go Zips, thump the flushes!
  2. Eastern has decided to send an Uber for NW in honor of it's first out of town fan.
  3. To me, to quote the renowned philosopher Dennis Green, "they are who we thought they were." All in all, there were a couple who did not develop as I'd hoped, but no one who made huge strides or surprised me.
  4. I'm feeling a big game from an unexpected source tonight, maybe Virshon or Parrish. I'm also curious to see the crowd. Will the rivalry get people out or will the teams' "down" years impact the interest?
  5. It will be very interesting to see the roster going into the first game next year. The nature of D1 basketball indicated we'll lose a scholarship player or two between now and then. Let's hope it's not someone that would really hurt.
  6. More award winning journalism from GT- https://www.ohio.com/akron/sports/university-of-akron/university-of-akron-mens-basketball-coach-john-groce-counting-on-pride-to-motivate-zips-against-rival-kent-state Funny, the Beacon called a 12 point Buffalo loss a rout but the 10 point PCCC loss was a game "could have gone either way."
  7. Domesticated parakeets in cages Skip, domesticated parakeets. Just think what we'd miss if our beat writer cared Skip. We wouldn't have Pulitzer quality work like his article of this morning recounting a Johhny Manziel interview on an Uninterrupted podcast.
  8. The Headline for the Zips/Canada game read "Buffalo routs Zips for No. 1 seed in MAC". That rag has gotten so bad NEO parakeets are refusing to crap on it.
  9. Let's just hope to play beyond Monday night. I'm not expecting a run, but every game these kids get to play is a bonus heading into next season.
  10. Maybe this is a preview to Monday night.
  11. UA needs to be careful in complaining about Mayborg. They don't need a complaint about discriminating against the blind.
  12. So glad to see "Mr. Pinky" has stuck! I contribute so little to the world.
  13. I understand they are telling the top candidates that they will get 5 scholarships to work with. Ugh.
  14. He just indicated he'd had enough and that the kids deserved better than the officiating gave them. He specifically referenced the Duvivier call resulting in him fouling out.
  15. Well, we're here at last, the last game of the regular season. A painful season for which some of the bad taste could be washed away with a home thumping of our friends from Ravenna.
  16. Yep, while the Cleveland news outlets beat them to the Akron news.
  17. Well, the fine Beacon Journal's headline characterized the game as a rout. Of course, they didn't send anyone so it was a wire report, but they control the headline. Maybe GT hasn't mastered the stream. Also, the kid that made the halftime shot won 12 medium pizzas.
  18. His initial unedited quote read "at the JAR..." !?
  19. I like the fire.
  20. He said he had enough and that it was ridiculous. One possession game then bad call on Duvivier. Loved the kids' effort. Calls didn't go their way. Kids deserve better.
  21. Groce with French now.
  22. Something about "that's two"!!!
  23. Good Lord, almost made it to the other sideline. Can't wait for the post-game with Frenchy! He sure as hell got his money's worth!
  24. Wow, Groce just blew a fuse.
