    Are we finally to the last year of Boozer's contract? Please say yes.

    That started with Grossman, Good Rex vs Bad Rex.

    For an organization in desparate need of money it seems they could have sold off this crap to morons for actual cash instead of just tossing them in the dumpster. Just a thought.

    WE WANT RYNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How dare people claim that our QB and his 4 TO's caused us to lose that game. The nerve of people.

    While there is no doubt that our D has to improve, they really only need to be average for us to beat just about anyone in the country. It's not like LSU's D is all that great this year, either.

    Alex Collins is a beast but the A&M defense is a hot mess. Mark Snyder needs get this defense to respectability quickly or we could be in trouble. This D could make Bo Wallace looks like a great QB.

    Ha. I guess Brandon Allen is playing after all.

    Yikes. Arkansas is in deep [expletive]. Our OL is as good, if not better, than last year's. And that was very, very good. I've heard Allen is starting at QB so I imagine we'll load up the box to slow down the run and dare him to throw on us. I imagine that is the strategy of every team going forward against Arkansas. If Allen is indeed healthy and starting then the Hogs have a chance to keep it somewhat close. Hatcher (#4) is pretty good at receiver. My favorite player on the team is Kiero Small at FB. He is a bad MFer one man wrecking crew as a lead blocker. If we can get 4 yards a carry and mix in some play action it might be interesting for awhile. My bad, I thought Allen was the backup.

    As a Razorback fan, let me tell you that this will happen and it will be a slaughter. Our starting QB is probably still out this week and the backup is dreadful, like it's as if he's never seen an actual football before dreadful. I am expecting something along the lines of 44-10. You have a couple of good RB's from what little I've seen. Our D is still shaky against the run, so I'd bet you'll put up more than 10. I also think we'll score more than 44, though. Wish I was making the trip to Fayetteville.

    I think Nike/Adidas/Under Armour/etc are having a contest with each other to see who can get an FBS school to wear the stupidest uniform possible in a real game.

    Friend in Chicago says he's hearing rumors of Girardi coming to replace Svuem. What are the chances on that happening? Will that even matter?

    WAT?
  22. Old Style
    Upon further review it looks like we will be closer to 55%. Not quite as good as I originally thought. Good thing we split the tickets 3 ways.

    Holy Hell, how did you pull that off? I'm impressed/jealous. I'm not really sure to be honest with you. Stubhub has been my main outlet, but not getting face value for the vast majority of those games. I typically end up pricing them near, or at the lowest price for my section. I have only had three games that I haven't sold. Having said that, some games may sell for 40-50% of combined face value. I try to just tell myself it is better than nothing. I was in town for one of the games against the Angels and tried selling a few games to the scampers outside by the El. They didn't really want go give me anything, and these were for Cardinals games. One guy offered me $30 total for the Thursday and Sunday game against the Cardinals. They both ended up selling on Stubhub for close to face value. I have sold a handful of games to some trusting people on Craigslist for face value earlier in the year. Man, good on you for being able to do that. I've had mine on StubHub as well and the face value usually hovers around $45-$60 each and it's a rare day when I can get $20 each. I don't have the exact numbers in front of me but I think we recouped about 60-65% of our bleacher seats. Of course we only have the nights & weekends package so that probably helped curb the losses a bunch.

    Ugh. What a [expletive] pile of games.
