  1. It's not exactly a rare chance for FIU. Here are their major conference teams they play this year: At Penn State Maryland At Miami At Kansas At Arkansas They also played at Miami, at Alabama, and at Maryland last year. It's actually quite sad. FIU is trying to build their football program, but their AD appears more willing to want the money from these big schools instead of trying to find competitive games for his team. Every small school is going to have a game or two against a big school that they don't have a chance in, but FIU takes it way too far. hey, who cares if the kids go 0-11 every year so long as the athletic dept. is getting $250,000 per school to go play there?
  2. the easy solution, of course, is to stop the guest conductor nonsense, but I think i've beaten that horse to death
  3. yeah, i was a little disappointed in the booing. i generally don't boo at most sporting events (unless the other team is a big rival or something). i mean, how classy is it for, say, 100,000+ people at a Penn State game to boo the visiting school's MARCHING BAND? lame
  4. i'm setting the over/under on the total # of pitches Soriano sees tonight at 8.5
  5. i feel sorry for the poor FIU kids this Saturday. they're pretty much guaranteed to get wiped all over the field. on the other hand, it's probably one of their only opportunities to walk onto a field surrounded by 110,000 screaming fans
  6. he saw, what, 6 pitches in 4 at-bats tonight?
  7. closer than Monroe, LA That is true...but the rules stipulated that we'd be responsible for our own travel. way to crap on a perfectly good conspiracy theory
  8. how sick are brewer fans right now? back in June you were thinking about winning the division by double digits and getting homefield, and now you're under .500 and in third place.
  9. the Brewers are in 3rd place, who cares? :D
  10. whenever phpbb decides to go gold on the release. I know little about phpbb so this will sound like a stupid question to you; but if you can test it and it works why do we have to wait for gold. because the pre-gold releases are still being fixed for bugs, etc. and don't have all the features "turned on" yet
  11. i jsut think a lot of casual fans want to see them finally win, but once they do, then those casual fans will move on to someone else
  12. can i just say how nice it is that the CUBS are causing someone ELSE heartbreak for once?
  13. i'm guessing it's gonna be harder to score tickets to next week's game hotels are so full that people are renting rooms in their houses for $1500+ for the Notre Dame weekend
  14. slightly off topic, but did Cynosure get banned or something? i'm startled that there aren't 1000 more posts by him today
  15. i find it telling that all of the finalists are from Illinois (or very close to Chicago). Finalists picked because they would be the cheapest to bring in for the finals?
  16. call me crazy, but i think if/when the Cubs win a world series, the nationwide fandom will see a dip
  17. i'm very happy i bought a few months of mlb.tv.....i'd hate to miss out on the heartbreak
  18. my dad scored a pair of free tickets for the PSU game from some vendor or whatever at work, so we're on our way on Saturday
  19. i'm still waiting to hear why ESPN's college preview show was "right". who budges first?
  20. the only funny thing i've seen on desipio is their nickname for Rich Hill: DICK MOUNTAIN!
  21. I call shenanigans. Cecil will order his pitchers to throw meatballs to his son to help his MVP campaign. EDIT: Crap, wrong Cecil.
  22. meh. there are thousands of hotter 18 year olds out there. i really don't see the big deal
  23. adding ryan braun as my WC was the best decision ever
  24. it's called being a PROFESSIONAL athlete. answering questions from reporters is part of the deal
