Capital One Cup

Sorry if this has been posted. Okay, so it probably doesn't really matter, but this year it looks like Capital One made soccer a Tier One sport. Which means instead of only getting 40 points last year, Akron would have gotten 60. Yeah, we wouldn't have won the top prize, but I am pretty sure we would have beaten Ohio State. Oh well, looks like the Zips will have to exceed expectations and win it all again this year!

I did pay attention to this last year. And those 20 points would have made a difference, and certainly would have put us well above OSWho. But it really doesn't matter. I've mentioned our high finish to a lot of OSWho fans over the last several months, and the typical pompous idiots just brush it aside as if it was some obscure contest that nobody ever hear of. Apparently they weren't paying attention to the continual "Capital One Impact Play OF The Day" that appeared in so many sports telecasts. But, of course these are the same people who would have been shouting from the rooftops if they had won it. So, my better instincts tell me that they just ignored the results all year because they didn't win, and can't come to grips with the fact that us "peons" up here in Akron, with no budget, were able to equal their athletic success.
