zen Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 will you juggle TPS reports during commercials? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip Watcher Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 The bigger question is .. do the TPS reports he juggles have Cover Pages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Zip Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 That would depend on if he got the memo. If he did, then they should have the new coversheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try and watch the game at work.one of the keys to playing at the arc is the crowd, especially the students. if we get loud and obnoxious, it's basically like have 6 or 7 players on the court. we're trying to pack the place tonight, as this is homer drew's first home attempt at his 600th career win. so tune in for an entertaining game.

ZachTheZip Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Our players are plenty used to loud and obnoxious students, believe me. Both our own, and the other MAC teams'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good one!I am a paid subscriber to zipszone (supposedly webcasting zips events). For almost all the season, it has all been audio only. Until the ball state game that was supposed to be on video webcast. Guess what? waited the whole night and saw nothing. Sent and email to complain, and i got an email reply saying:sorry we had technical difficulties, but we will keep your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave in Green Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 The Horizon League definitely has a quality video broadcast. I didn't see the whole game, but the part I saw was almost TV broadcast quality. Would love to be able to see all the Zips road games like that.Valpo absolutely destroyed Loyola-Chicago, 71-47. Loyola's strength of schedule and season record is comparable to many MAC teams, and in fact they won at both Western Michigan and Northern Illinois earlier this season. In the part of the video I saw, Valpo's players appeared to be much more athletic and aggressive than Loyola's. They were clawing and scratching for the ball all the time.This should serve notice that Valpo will not be a cupcake for the Zips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave in Green Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 After their destruction at the hands of Valpo, Loyola-Chicago bounced back today to beat the #15 team in the country, Butler, 71-67. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave in Green Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 I don't think anyone on this forum disagrees with the fact that the only way the Zips can make the NCAA tournament is to win the MAC tournament, and that no result is more important than that. Of course winning any game is always preferable to losing. But beating Valpo must not become a distraction to the main focus of winning the MAC tournament. This is also the Zips only remaining game whose outcome will not have a direct effect on their MAC tournament chances. For example, it's not a game in which you want to have any key players on the court for long minutes, which could take away from their performance in the next MAC game.What this game does offer is an opportunity to try some things that the Zips might not want to risk for the first time in conference play. So I think we may see something a little different from the Zips in the Valpo game than what we might expect in a conference game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RACER Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 the valpo game may not be for an ncaa bid.it's still a game the zips need to win of they want to get in other post season tourneys.after yeserday's 47-16 fouls i am not to confident about any road wins now.
