ziptrumpet87 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 when does the next commercial come out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zen Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 This week's matchup is Joe Buin of UCLA.That is a very large market, so if someone in the media out there runs a story, Zippy could get overtaken in a blink. We need more buffer votes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skip-zip Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 At this point in the competition, the problem probably is not the opponent we are facing. The problem is the people that are voting AGAINST us in order to try to get us out of that top spot.Lets keep pushing....we've been getting it done so far.

GoZips88 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Hey Bleacher, see what you can do to get another good mention on Channel 3 Monday morning. Channel 3 exposure coupled with the ABJ article this past Monday REALLY seemed to generate a strong final push that blew away Hokiebird. Regular Monday morning pub to end each round may be needed to keep Zippy on top.I agree, we're probably getting ganged-up on right now and need to be even more vigilant about stirring up votes.

GoZips88 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Hokiebird has gone on quite a run today and has overtaken Cavman. That match-up is probably a double-whammy for Zippy since Zippy has beaten both mascots, those two schools are bitter rivals and voters from both are probably voting against Zippy as they vote for their own mascot. We've been struggling to stay in the plus-200-to-250 range so far today. Keep throwing coal on the fire Zippy fans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 As of 2:25PM this afternoon, Zippy's lead has shrunk to 185. Not sure if she'll even finish the day still ahead of the orange blob from Syracuse. Continue to vote and pass the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips88 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 hehe, if they have a media induced wave, it will die in a day or so.Ahhh, but if it ISN'T a media wave and is more closely tied to the Va. vs. Va. Tech battle, it may rage on until Monday ... :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottditzen Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Looks like the other undefeated mascots Goldy and Big Red are going DOWN....that's why it's so important for Zippy to win this week!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Our leads down to 35 votes. I just put in 50 more for Zippy, but it won't hold for long. I'm attempting to get at least 200 votes in today, but I really can't do it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleacher Bum Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Zippy's down 88 at 2:30 Friday morning. And GoZips88, there's not much I can do since John Anderson is the one who has been pushing Zippy on TV and I believe he's on vacation next week.

Bleacher - can John set something up today for Monday before he leaves for the day? I have no idea who he is or how much pull he has but it would be worth a shot to ask him.

ZachTheZip Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Zippy's lead is shrinking again, down to 150. It looks like the battle of Virginia is heating up again. Just put in over 200 votes for Zippy, myself. Remember to also vote for Joe Bruin, Seymour, Cavman, Cosmo, and Hairy Dawg this week to help eliminate some competition.
