Reminds me of my favorite joke:
They should give the southern third of Iowa to Missouri, it would raise the IQ of both states.
Had to quit telling it though, got tired of explaining it to...
Just a quick fact.
There was a time from the mid 90s to 2003 or so that the Gateway (MVFC) had a winning record against the MAC, including a couple of games with InSU in there
???????misprint?????????
I think there have been bids from other areas, with $$$$ involved. Unfortunately, issues such as travel of fans, and weather issues have been brought up. I believe they look at the bid as a whole. ...
One thing that I must point out is that this is practically impossible if there is not 3 weeks between games.
Any paint that comes off easy enough to not damage the grass (during the removal...
WELL EXXXCUUUSSSSSE me for not knowing the technical jargon between an economic analysis and an "audit".
That is why there was the explanation of what was done to make it clear. Obviously you...
When I was at UNI in the 90's a private PR and accounting firm were hired to do an audit of the "intangible" value of the football program. They found that while losing money the "value" to the...
Has anyone here discussed this problem (I am not going to read 170 posts on wether of not white and balck should be included) if Miami (orange) goes and plays Oregon (Green) and they both wear their...
You can only give scholarships to 30 new recruits in one year. If you have 40 you will be playing 10 short this year.
How is this any different than pulling your kid out of school on a Thursday and Friday in December. One day extra of absence for the kid?
The people who go to the game already (on its current...
In addition to my above reasoning I follow it with:
If people can make it to a game in Chatty with one weeks notice (typically having to take Thursday and Friday off work if not just friday. ...
Just my experience
I have had tickets the NC twice (once when my team was playing and once just to go).
Because of the time to prepare for flights (when my team made it) and the lack of mass...
I actually thinks this is a VERY good idea to get these things fixed. It doesn't have to start at the NCAA. The schools could start to publish career leaders including all games.
I know that...
Thanks for the advice Th0m. I was able to watch the end of the JMU Montana game tonight.
I noticed that they only have the games on ESPN2 not ESPN so tomorrows game most likely will not be on.
...
The UNI game is not listed for tomorrow.
IN addition many of these sites have agreements with the Canadian government not to violate the media restrictions in this country (kind of like China) so...

I subscribe to the rogers cable "super sports pack" which includes the ESPN football and Basketball feeds. The problem is this time of year sometimes they drop football feeds for...
Has anyone ever tried to use the international online feeds from espn360/game plane?
I tried last weekend and they had technical difficulties. Is that common?
Finally the sell "day passes...
And the houston texans have a grass but their "dome" is convertable.
You can grow grass in the old style pressurized domes that relied heavily on natural light. The original astrodome was...
I do not think anyone here is advocating grass in a dome. That wouldn't work. We are talking about outside.
The key difference is in August you have been conditioning outside all summer in hot weather. Your body adjusts to it. Over the last 3 months temperatures have been getting cooler and your body has...
That is the problem with the grass fields the complete lack of understanding of how to manage them. You do not need to re-sod the field every year. There are ongoing management schemes that work...
Quick reminder, it had nothing to do with loyalty to a conference mate. It had EVERYTHING to do with not blatantly breaking NCAA rules, and even more specifically conference rules.
now I really...
I totally agree that as the field degrades throughout the season it adds new challenges to the team. Many offenses designed for ideal fields do worse when there is some rain and mud.
The NFL has...
Boone is one of the best places in the world for growing grass. according to a local golf course superintendent. The rainfall in the fall makes it hard to maintain the field throughout the season...
