fear the brown roo Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 herbie took too many shots to the head in his losses to the team up north. Quote
ZipAlumn Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 What is happening in the world? Can this be the third (yes, THIRD) sports prognosticator that has Can't winning the MAC East. This is football guys, not basketball. Put out those funny cigarettes, sober up, and get serious. Wait now I get it ....... it's a joke right! Quote
Valpo Zip Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 seriously what is going on?can all three people be smoking stuff? or is there something missing ? I know Can't state fans and they don't even expect winning the conference... Quote
ZachTheZip Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 The Can't State fans I know don't even expect a winning season. I know thet they have improved over last year, but come on. No one goes from 1-10 to conference champion in just one season. Quote
Buckzip Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Maybe all of these guys are stuck on April 1st. Quote
Quickzips Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Nevermind the insanity of picking Can't to win the East, is anyone else a little weirded out by his "All Uniform: Guys who just look good in their uniforms, team?" Quote
Zips fan Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Maybe, he did no homework on the subject at all. He called his friend Phil Steele and copied his prediction for the conferences that don't get write ups. MAC Report and Vandalay follow this conference closely and neither is giving Can't a shot. I will believe things are going to change at Can't when MAC knowledgable people start to give them a chance. Until then, Herbstreit try name five starters for Can't or one reason they can compete for the title. Quote
UADavid Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Nevermind the insanity of picking Can't to win the East, is anyone else a little weirded out by his "All Uniform: Guys who just look good in their uniforms, team?"I was thinking the same thing. Does he get locker room access? Quote
MRasor0200 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I'll tell you with complete certainty that national football writers would rather be right on the longshots than the sureshots.Here's another thing I know: National writers consider how many starters are returning when deciding mid-major conference champions.So Herbstreit is hoping Can't State, which returns a sickening amount of starters from an awful team, wins the MAC. That way, he can brag on College Gameday.Many of ESPN's writers lost credibility with me a long time ago. Quote
RowdyZip Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 insane. mr herstreit, i just lost a lot of respect for you...1) It's Can't. It's FOOTBALL.2) 1-10 to league champion is some serious disrespect for the competition in this league.oh well. still game me a chuckle, i guess. Quote
Buckzip Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Herbie, along with most of ESPiN, have no credibility. Quote
bobbyake Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Maybe Can't's paying these people money to help hype up the season to draw people to the games. It's a little far fetched but the only way to explain this. They looked for help from a marketing consulting firm, kinda makes you think they're desperate. Quote
w00t Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 You've got to be kidding me... Can't's football team is atrocious. Will UA fans outnumber Can't fans even though the game is at Dix this year? Quote

zen Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Herbie, along with most of ESPiN, have no credibility. If it's not among the following, they don't know about it:Any New York teamAny New York playerTerrell OwensKobe BryantThe ACCuhm, what did I forget? A few others. Not much. Quote
sgm405 Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Posted August 30, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/preview06/ne...tory?id=2564578So Herby picks em to win the MAC East...but they are in ESPN's Bottom 10!?!??! Quote
zipseuph Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 kinda sucks that the MAC has 3 teams on that list Quote
Blue & Gold Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 4 if you count Temple. Temple, Buffalo, Can't State & Eastern Michigan. Those guys really drag down the rest of the conference. I think I'm the only person on this board who liked admitting Temple into the MAC. I just think it's a good move to get the Philly tv market into the MAC. Also, I believe Temple is to play many MAC schools in basketball too, which will be nice. Buffalo is also a decent sized market, so I think we may be wise to also be very patient with their program. But Can't State & Eastern Michigan? Man, can we just kick them out of the conference right now? The more quickly the MAC disassociates its' member schools with those programs, the better! Quote
you am i Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Halftime: Can't 21, BGSU 3. WHAT THE ... ???!!! Quote

Had a little too much to drink there , bobbyake? Quote
bobbyake Posted September 24, 2006 Report Posted September 24, 2006 haha, not enough, i wanted to bring my cooler into the game. I was complaining about wanting another beer. I wish they'd sell beer during the games, they could raise enough money to build a dome stadium with the money they could make off students buying beer.The Irony of life,,,,,,,,,,,, look at Can't. Life's so ironic. I hope we put them in their place next week. Quote
Ryno aka Menace Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 I tell you guys what Kirk's pick is get less and less funny as the weeks go by. Can't has now beat Miami and BGSU,...but the buck stops here! Quote
