  1. I figured if nothing else playing at home would give 'em a chance.
  2. Indiana gets an ugly, hard fought win. I still think we suck but 2-0 is okay. \:D/
  3. The team that loses the toss could try playing some defense. It works every now and then. :hello: Not a big fan of the way college football handles OT currently. Kind of a Mickey Mouse way to end a game, I mean sure the occasional 6-7 OT thriller can be fun in a way but at the same time it is just a dumb way to decide a game IMO. I'd rather see college football play an extra quarter of real football. If the NFL adopted a similar approach, that is fine. I'd just prefer playing real football and having sudden death over giving both teams the ball in the red zone to start as part of some gimmick.
  4. It is football season now.
  5. So full of win.
  6. Haha Len & Bob are like MILES IN FOR BLANCO WTF.
  7. ROLL BAMA GO FUMBLE
  8. :old_alright:
  9. Nice INT there.
  10. Okay let's go Wolfpack.
  11. Um, they are still only down 1 score.
  12. Wow did a Navy WR just burn the Ohio State DB deep? lol USC is going to have a field day with these guys.........again.
  13. Stanzi tried to throw a pick there.
  14. IU survives a last second hail mary pass attempt to win 19-13. Same old IU. Good to confirm this fact early. :-&
  15. Call me crazy but I'm excited for the kick off of Indiana's season tonight. The Hoosiers have a lot of skill position talent on offense so as long as Ben Chappell doesn't suck we should be able to score enough points to compete in a lot of games this season. Defense still worries me. We can't afford any injuries on that side of the ball. Then again Bill Lynch is still the coach. :banghead: But he recruits well so really it would be in the football program's best interest to have Lynch prove he isn't totally worthless as a game day coach so we can have some stability and continue to build upon recently improved recruiting. But I'm not holding my breath.
  16. McDaniels sucks at challenging plays in addition to sucking at coaching.
  17. It is okay, Kyle can throw lefty. :-))
  18. The cubs.com crowd around here really needs to go. Attack poodles? hahaha oh boy.
  19. Really dude? Haven't you be warned about this before? Oh wait you have been ... http://www.northsidebaseball.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=53710&hilit=hummel&start=25 Tell you what though, I won't mention Robbie again. I think you are a good guy, I just tease sometimes. It isn't meant to be anything personal.
  20. Really dude? Haven't you be warned about this before? Oh wait you have been ... http://www.northsidebaseball.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=53710&hilit=hummel&start=25 You are wound up way too tight IMO. And no I was not personally warned about anything. You had any number of people in that particular thread. Stop taking yourself so seriously. It is a message board. Like I was saying, where exactly is this LaRussa stuff coming from?
  21. I can see the Onion article now. LaRussa charged with drug trafficking Caught smuggling large amount of pixie dust across statelines LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL You really have a bad obsession with me. I can't post without you replying a pointless waste of time response. You don't like me. Get over it. Ignore my posts I don't care just stop making pointless posts that derail threads. Robbie Hummel I have a hard time buying into this rumor. Where did it even originate? Seems like a lot of detail needs to be filled in. Like first of all why would LaRussa even be considering leaving the land of the pixies?
  22. It's not a neutral site. It's a selling of a home game to earn some extra money that I'm sure their athletic department really needs. FedEx Field is going to be mostly Penn State fans and the IU AD is fully aware of that. Northwestern sold a home game to Ohio State about 20 years ago that was played in Cleveland. NU wore home uniforms, but that was it. It's not just a forfeit of the game, but a forfeit of any strength the program currently has. IU might as well send a white flag up the pole and tell all their fans and potential recruits that they're not going to take things seriously for a few more years. Well, as long as Bill Lynch is coaching, I suppose they're doing that anyway. That bowl bid they got under him in 07 might end up being a bad thing because they felt obligated to give a really bad coach a chance because of it. Haha you beat me to it. I was going to say we already ran up the white flag when we gave Lynch the fulltime job. Maybe I'm just weird but as an Indiana fan and alum this move really does not bother me at all. Now let me say this, I am accepting of the move as a one time endeavor. If Fred Glass does this again then I would not be so understanding. But given the current circumstances I have no problem dealing with it. Our athletic department DOES need the money and this is quite a nice little windfall. And 2010 will likely be a transition year for IU football anyways as I really don't see the team winning enough games this fall to save Lynch from getting canned. Heck maybe part of this money can go towards offering an actual competitive salary to more competent coaching candidate. A guy can dream can't he? ;) I really don't think our athletic department is sitting around scheming to sell games, it was just a "bolt from the blue" moment provided by Dan Snyder, IU gave him a $ figure they thought would scare him off and they were wrong. Oh well. One offshoot of this whole situation is how suddenly all the IU football message boards are flooded with outraged IU fans. It kind of amuses me seeing as how our fan base overall is pretty pathetic in regards to football and these people obviously don't care enough to actually head to Bloomington on Saturdays and keep a reasonable attendance level. Instead we have embarrassing attendance year after year, even Hep wasn't able to completely reverse that. So if people really want to discourage this type of thing they need to get their rear ends to the games and fill that stadium with Indiana fans every fall Saturday. Until then the outrage just rings hollow to me.
