  1. That's more like it. GO BIG RED! I don't want to jinx anything, I smell victory but we can't let our guard down tonight.
  2. They originally had me scheduled from 3:30-11:30, but I had that changed to 6:30(am)-2:00 GBR
  3. I've got the game on, not really paying attention to it. I would like LA to win, but I'm being conservatively optimistic. But I'll be sleeping before the game's over.
  4. Total destruction! Unfortunately it still works for me, and the stupidity is still rampant.
  5. Wow, I can't remember what most of my dreams were about. Let alone what lottery numbers would be.
  6. The Shining is on Spike right now. Didn't that take place in Colorado? If sCUm keeps up their streak, we might see a repeat of Jack Nicholson's character real soon.
  7. So it's on Tuesdays. I haven't been able to keep up with all these new shows and dates/times. So far the only 'new' show I've seen was the season premere of "The Office" and missed it last week. I'm going to have to set a reminder for it.
  8. Just noticed, seems kinda odd with the east coast watching the Pac 10 game.
  9. With Detroit being bluish green I'll be watching the 'Skers on TV this Saturday!!! GBR!
  10. Well I guess ABC/ESPN's solution was to remove the link to the (outdated) coverage map all together. NU fan in Denver you hear anything yet?
  11. This is unacceptable on ABC's part. I'm hoping that WXYZ in Detroit is showing it. I know KXLY Spokane will undoubtedly show the Oregon game. Besides if I had the HDTV cable box the only ABC affiliate we get in HDTV would be KOMO Seattle, and that would be Oregon too. Please, please, please, please WXYZ show it... I already changed my work schedule for Saturday around to watch the game.
  12. Source: USA Today OSCODA, Mich. (AP) — Oscoda Area High School's football team hasn't won a game, or even scored a point, in four games this season. Now the school district has decided to cancel the remaining games. Despite pleas from players and parents, the board in the small northern Michigan district recently upheld the school's earlier decision to end the season, saying players risked injury in trying to take on much stronger opponents. "When you go to a game on Friday night and see a team physically dominated, those are the indisputable facts," said coach Kyle Tobin. "Seniors, I feel for you. There's nothing I can say other than I'm sorry," said board member Neal Sweet. "But you're not quitters. You went out there and did your best." Tobin said the team was not physically competitive, had too few players and faced a tough schedule in the North East Michigan Conference, The Bay City Times reported. Senior quarterback Mike Gondek pleaded with the school board to reconsider the school's Sept. 19 decision to cancel the remaining games. "All I ever wanted to do was play football," Gondek said. "My teammates never felt so unsafe that we didn't want to be out there." Tobin, who is in his first year as head coach at the 530-student school, defended his decision to recommend calling off the season. "I have 28 years of coaching experience in high school and college, and I know the difference between a team playing bad and a team that's unsafe," he said. The scores in Oscoda's games this season were 46-0 against Flint Hamady on Aug. 25, 30-0 against Whittemore-Prescott on Aug. 31, 44-0 against West Branch Ogemaw Heights on Sept. 8 and 44-0 against Tawas on Sept. 15. Oscoda forfeited its game Friday against Pinconning and had four more games left on its schedule. Tobin coached the Whittemore-Prescott football team to three state finals and one championship before leaving three years ago. He said Oscoda High could barely meet the minimum number of players needed to field a team. He said one reason was that it did not have a junior varsity football team last year. It also lost several players to injuries. Coaches put several sophomore players on the junior varsity team so they could compete and train without so great a risk of injury. Some in the audience of about 100 people Monday spoke in Tobin's support. "When you have a coach who comes and says 'unsafe,' it's not about the band, the boosters or the cheerleaders. It's about some kid getting paralyzed," said Terry Ekdahl, whose has a son on the junior varsity team. Perhaps Colorado could learn something here
  13. I'm not that cynical to think about that. Life will go on; school, work, home. If you're asking will I jump off the Husker bandwagon, the answer is no. Things could be worse, we could all be sCUm.
  14. Soon I hope. Checked yesterday and just now, and they're still showing 9/30/06... Come on... The suspense is killing me.
  15. When you hear some :asshat ramble on about something they don't even know when you don't know them, the best thing to do is laugh at them. If you do know them, then a b!tchslap is in order.
  16. That sucks about banning the song! Good song, with a good point.
  17. Yeah I've done this before too... Don't Love Make A Diamond Shine - Tracy Byrd
  18. Welcome! Glad to hear you had a good time
  19. Strange, ever since football season started, I just stoped caring about baseball. I guess I use it as a crutch to get me through off-season,
  20. I don't think it was Cally's fault. We didn't execute plain and simple. But when you come down to it, we pulled though when we had to, and won. Someone has to lose, and it wasn't us.
