Rifle...I don't think there were any highlights because the game wasn't on TV. Someone would have had to shoot the game, edit it, then uplink it via satellite.The entire game (including the final play) was broadcast on GoZips.com's ZipsZone. We have a video feed to most games now. It is stored somewhere in the UA net.Didn't know that.Do they do it the right way or just put one mini cam up on sticks on top of the press box?Is it a multi-camera shoot just for the Web?

As good as Elton's article was, this one, which appears in the Wretched Courier, is bad.This is the same guy who wrote that Brookhart encouraged illegal hits in the Can't game.Once again, Can't was the "more talented" team in their loss to Miami.He doesn't mention Can't's stupid idea to pass instead of run until the end.We call that burying the lead.Did this guy even go to j-school?

That's getting a bit harsh, don't you think? No, I really feel that Zippy is the best mascot in the country. Granted g-mann, and I applaud your enthusiasm.I don't tell other people what to do, however personally, I would recommend avoiding any analogy to that incident in this particular topic. It is much too serious and tragic to bring into a discussion about school mascots. My 2 cents.

As someone pointed out on the board last year....birds don't have teeth.Kinda spooky.

I'm sure some of you have already seen this, but here is some motivation for you to vote for Zippy until your fingers are sore.http://kentstate.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fi...id=1182&style=2And here too:http://kentstate.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fi...id=1182&style=2

Are you trying to say that they should:do a backup of all files and all database tables before making any changes?

hardly any students go there anymore. It gets old when students have to deal with alcoholics and drug addicts asking for money to support their habbit. Well, I'm not trying to be flip here, but that's what I put up with every day working in downtown Cleveland..

When I went to the U, it was usually students lining up to get the 12 bucks.

Go Zips:I've had the same problem, and it was an issue on my end.I know I was typing the correct security code, but it would not accept my vote.All I did was clear out the cashe, closed the browser, reopened and then did the procedure again.It was just a matter of obtaining a new security code.Don't know why, but I know doing what I just explained works.Good luck!

No one said he wasn't going to play...they just said he wasn't the starter. I am happy with JD's decision. how can u lead a team on the field if you don't do what you are suppose to do off? CJ7 you need to lead by example, you are setting the tone for offense when you are under center and don't think freshmen don't watch upper class men's antics. Be mature and take care off business. A 50K scholarship, the least you could do is go to meetings and get you ankle iced!!!This kinda stuff is what strikes a nerve with me, I had to endure some terrible seasons cause I played with talented guys who didn't wanna work, or simply did dumb shit.Missing meetings = not reading offenses or defensive coverages correctlyNot going to treatment = season long nagging injuriesNot going to class = ineligible playersGeez!!!! How much punishment is enough? I think basically missing the UCONN game was punishment enough for missing a meeting or treatment. Probably too much. If the infraction was more than that it could explain why he is not starting this week. If JD thinks CJ11 gives us a better shot at winning than CJ7, he was not paying attention the first five games.I really am not in favor of CJ11 playing at all unless he must. His time in the games is just a waste of time and there are only 60 minutes in a game. Time can't be wasted. Akron will be 2-4 if he plays more than two series this Saturday. If CJ11 is going to play, we need to change to a different type of offense, but it's too late in the season to do that. There is no deception running the option when he is in the game as there is no threat of him keeping the ball or even getting very far when he keeps it. I'm just amazed by this decision. I don't think it is an issue of punishment.I believe it is an issue of "leadership."

Agree.Everyone will now vote for Otto because he is not a threat.Conversely, everyone will now vote against Zippy because he's in first.I think we saw a lot of that against Otto. It was amazing how he was keeping up, however, Zips fans were up to the challenge....a challenge, I fear, that will only become more diffficult...but we can do it!!!

Zippy wins by a comfortable margin over Otto.Congratuations Zippy and Zip fans!Zippy is the only 3-0 mascot in overall standings.http://www.capitalonebowl.com/Standings.aspxOtto is dead last.This one was a tough one, but pivotal.

I guess as long as it says:"your vote has been counted"you're cool.I'm pretty sure it's not real time either.They seem (votes) to go up in bunches.

How about when you cast a vote and the total doesn't go up right away?Do they not update the totals in real time?Or, are they updated every so many seconds or something?

Man...someone is racking up major votes for Otto tonight....no matter how many votes Zippy gets, Otto is always 50 or so votes ahead.

Pictures now available, including one video clip.Thanks to everyone who showed up.http://www.akoldies.org/blog/

So, if you want to cast multiple votes, you have to clean out your cookies after each vote...is that correct?

Well, I know this...from the amount of suggestions we've had to establish a base of operations...it's going to be difficult to please everyone.Dr. Z gives a good suggestion to talk to the establishment to see if we can "cut a deal."The question remains...who should we contact?I'm sure we can cut a deal with a lot of places, but which one would be the best?In our "advanced age" we all like, what we like.The input is appreciated.Perhaps we'll take some kind of vote via e-mail or poll via ZipsNation.

Are they "Zip friendly?"Rockne's is a sponsor of the Zips on the radio.Would we see a lot of scarlet and gray?

As Zippy currently takes on Otto from the "cuse," a Va Tech student is confused over how "Zippy the Kangaroo" can beat out Hokiebird.He writes to the student newspaper.http://www.akoldies.org/blog/

Thanks for passing that on.That's an excellent site!
