That is where most "analysts" put us. However, I'm playing the part of the rabid fan this year. Also, Mangino had one of the best raids of the junior colleges this year, if not the best. Quick fix maybe. In the meantime, I will also be cheering the Irish. Now hear this, all you college football fans! Willingham is your worst nightmare!” 4:21:36 PM 7/21/03 “Thank you! Finally someone that agree's with me. Just wait and see, I am saying National Champions in 2 years. Good, you should play the rabid fan. I honestly do not know much about Northwestern this year. Have followed them if years past because they are nearby.” 4:24:12 PM 7/21/03 “Tell you what. I have an unusual bet for you Dunadan. $5 says Rutgers will have a worse season than Kansas U. You good for it or will I have to threaten to mow your house to collect? 8/30 BUFFALO 9/6 @ Michigan State 9/13 @ Army 9/27 NAVY 10/4 VIRGINIA TECH 10/11 @ West Virginia 10/18 PITTSBURGH 10/25 @ Temple 11/8 @ Connecticut 11/15 BOSTON COLLEGE 11/22 @ Miami 11/29 SYRACUSE” 4:26:06 PM 7/21/03 “I hear that Northwestern is crawling back in that hole that they emerged from a few years back. Ya gotta love ND if you know anything about college football.” 4:26:48 PM 7/21/03 “I see 4-8 as the best possible case.” 4:27:41 PM 7/21/03 “Interesting proposition, Violin. The Scarlet Knights will beat Buffalo, Army, Navy, and Temple. They could surprise UConn. Hmmmm, what do you think? I think the Jayhawks could definitely pull off a 4-8 year. Give me a couple of posts to think about it.” 4:30:44 PM 7/21/03 “YIKES! Tough schedule for the smart kids.” 4:30:56 PM 7/21/03 College football haiku! “Football season comes Slowly creeping through summer Lobos will still suck.” 4:33:17 PM 7/21/03 “"Retarded T's". And you think the "A's", "AU's", "OSU's", the "K's", the "UGA's", the "ND's", etc, etc, etc are any better? At least ours is trademarked and properly identified as a "Power T".” 4:34:16 PM 7/21/03 “Of course, if I place my 6-6 season bet in Vegas, and then bet you on the worst season, I would be covering all my bases, Violin. Care to make it $20?” 4:35:14 PM 7/21/03 “Wouldn't it be nice to have gone to a college with good football sense?” 4:37:54 PM 7/21/03 “How about loser has to read all of the other ones Haiku for a whole year. That's punishment enough.” 4:38:59 PM 7/21/03 “Yeah, Kansas State has the "Powercat" trademarked, also. They still have one of the stupidest looking mascots in all of the country, and Wildcats is the name of every team from coast to coast, and Purple sucks.” 4:40:27 PM 7/21/03 “Intangible: They canned our suck-ass offensive coordinator. You read our schedule the same way I did, only I'd replace will beat with should beat. When you've been a fan of the Wounded Amoebas as long as I have, you learn not to count on anything. Sure – make it $20. Worst performance takes it.” 4:41:34 PM 7/21/03 “The Scarlet Knights will beat Buffalo, Army, Navy, and Temple. Dunadan You left out Mother Macree's School for the Deaf, Dumb, Blind, and Lame.” 4:42:17 PM 7/21/03 “You're on for $20 worth of a good microbrew. Loser has to show up in the other's hometown. Or, we could make a more TT related bet??? What do you think? Sorry, Geo, if I hurt your drab green feelings.” 4:45:26 PM 7/21/03 “You're on for $20 worth of a good microbrew. Loser has to show up in the other's hometown. Or, we could make a more TT related bet??? What do you think? Sorry, Geo, if I hurt your drab green feelings.” 4:45:27 PM 7/21/03 “Listening to a Rutgers fan and a Kansas fan debate the relative strength (or lack of strength) is acutally quite entertaining. In the SEC, even Vanderbilt fans don't bet that they will go 4 and 8 or worse.” 4:49:17 PM 7/21/03 “A Jersey boy in Dogpatch? I could get overwhelmed. I could ship you $20 of Brooklyn Lager if I lose though. Does the stagecoach still run through there?” 4:50:37 PM 7/21/03 “If Vandy went 4-8 then their fans would come out of the woodwork. They might even have 15k at a game.” 4:50:45 PM 7/21/03 “I'm beginning to like these Vandy fans, aren't you, Violin? Dude, (Fiddler), you would have to walk a couple of miles, because the stage doesn't stop in our town. I'll put up 20 worth of Free State Ale. You guys are witnesses.” 4:55:10 PM 7/21/03 I wonder if alcohol was involved? “July 18, 2003 SportsLine.com wire reports BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU football coach Nick Saban was knocked unconscious about two weeks ago when he fell from his boat and hit his head against a dock. The accident happened in a lake near his vacation home in Georgia, Saban told New Orleans radio station WWL. He said he woke up 8 feet under water and paddled toward the surface, where one of the two friends he was with pulled him out. Saban swallowed water and needed 25 stitches to close cuts in his ear and the back of his head. The stitches have been removed. He declined to comment further, LSU sports information director Michael Bonnette said. Saban said he was carrying a wakeboard and standing on the ski deck of his boat, something he had done "a thousand times." He slipped and said the next thing he remembered was waking up on the bottom of the lake. AP NEWS The Associated Press News Service” 4:55:40 PM 7/21/03 “I will be more than happy to hold the free state beer until the season is over. Oh, of course I would have to take in my usual fee for storage, management, etc.” 4:57:06 PM 7/21/03 “Beer stays with Chili Safe and secure just like Porkchop with a dog” 5:01:43 PM 7/21/03 “LMAO @dunadan. Just for the record, I would finish off the FSB long before the dog finished the chop.” 5:04:09 PM 7/21/03 “You da man, Chili! BTW, Dayhiker, why would reading haiku be a punishment????? Speak to the Haiku Master!!!!” 5:05:47 PM 7/21/03 “Instead of beer we could make it that you have to stop abusing haiku and I have to stop trolling (although it appears matt may have taken care of that already).” 5:08:13 PM 7/21/03 “Holy Guacamole, Batman! Did you guys just witness Violin up the bet by a mile? Violin, I would guess that you think you have a ringer, because that takes this wager way out of proportion to where it was. No haiku? No trolling? Could TT survive? All that would be left would be the boring backpackers and their lame gear threads. I don't know if we can do that, Violin. Let me consider it for a while.” 5:13:32 PM 7/21/03 “I think I noticed a condescending tone to chili’s post about Rutgers and KU. Do I have to remind you how quiet your stadium was until midway through the third quarter when Rutgers visited y’all last year?” 5:15:30 PM 7/21/03 “Yeah, what he said. (And you don't want no part of the Jayhawks either.....in basketball.)” 5:17:31 PM 7/21/03 “Well, it was bad last year,,,,our 8-5 record was our worse record in 15 years. I don't think we ever went 2-10 and I cannot ever remember going a year with only 4 wins.” 5:22:29 PM 7/21/03 “Ok, after some research, I find the Vols did have 4 win seasons (never any less) 3 times in my lifetime,,,,'62, '64 and '77. I cannot find that they ever won fewer than 4.” 5:30:09 PM 7/21/03 “GO VOLZ!!! GO VOLZ!!!BAMA SUCKS!!! BAMA SUCKS!!!” 5:38:56 PM 7/21/03 Warning! “Incendiary post above! Sick him, Dayhiker!” 5:41:49 PM 7/21/03 “bbinkley always continues to impress me with his timliness and wisdom in these matters..... oh and Dunadan, further research shows UT did play Kansas in 1973, winning the game by one point....28-27 Closer than Rutgers came to beating the Vols.” 5:44:26 PM 7/21/03 “Wow! That was back around the time Kansas went to the Orange Bowl. We should get the game scheduled again, Chili. I will buy the tickets when the Vols come to Lawrence.” 5:50:23 PM 7/21/03 HOW about this schedule?????? “Date Opponent Location Time/Results Aug. 30 Clemson Clemson, S.C. Sept. 6 Middle Tennessee State Columbia, S.C. Sept. 13 South Carolina Athens Sept. 20 LSU Baton Rouge, La. Oct. 4 Alabama Athens Oct. 11 Tennessee Knoxville, Tenn. Oct. 18 Vanderbilt Nashville, Tenn. Oct. 25 UAB Athens Homecoming Nov. 1 Florida Jacksonville, Fla. Nov. 15 Auburn Athens Nov. 22 Kentucky Athens Nov. 29 Georgia Tech Atlanta Dec. 6 SEC Championship Georgia Dome, Atlanta” 7:35:07 PM 7/21/03 Watch Out TN...Your In For A Game “ 8:50:48 PM 7/21/03 “   ”8:54:24 PM 7/21/03 “I'll come back to this board and eat crow if I'm wrong...” 8:55:34 PM 7/21/03 “dayhiker. I root for the tide because I know that the Bucks are the best, you guys are like our little brother! lol! I have noticed that deathmarch has been revived, but I'd rather watch Michigan get cruched by Ohio State, again, at home, in the confines of my comfy couch. Seriously, I got your email, and I'll check out the trips page. This message is brought to you by the 2002 NCAA College Football National Champion, The Ohio State Buckeyes.” 9:38:54 PM 7/21/03 OH BY THE WAY!!! “WHO DOES OHIO PLAY THOUGH??? Ohio State Buckeyes 8-30-03 WASHINGTON Ohio State Buckeyes 9-6-03 SAN DIEGO STATE Ohio State Buckeyes 9-13-03 NORTH CAROLINA STATE Ohio State Buckeyes 9-20-03 BOWLING GREEN Ohio State Buckeyes 9-27-03 NORTHWESTERN Ohio State Buckeyes 10-11-03 at Wisconsin Ohio State Buckeyes 10-18-03 IOWA Ohio State Buckeyes 10-25-03 at Indiana Ohio State Buckeyes 11-1-03 at Penn State Ohio State Buckeyes 11-8-03 MICHIGAN STATE Ohio State Buckeyes 11-15-03 PURDUE Ohio State Buckeyes 11-22-03 at Michigan Exactly who on this schedule makes it that hard to go undefeated???” 9:48:41 PM 7/21/03 “Wisconsin, Penn State (sort of), and Michigan (especially). But I do agree that it's a pretty powder-puff schedule for a team who claims the national championship. ONLY FOUR away games?!?!....please... If Ohio State takes it again this season I won't be very impressed...only less confident in the BCS system (if that's possible) ” 10:04:36 PM 7/21/03 “and Wildcats is the name of every team from coast to coast, and Purple sucks." Dunadan 04:40:27 PM 07/21/03 The only true Wildcats are in Kentucky, and we let our football team borrow the name before bball gets rolling.” 10:12:02 PM 7/21/03 “Every Big Ten team on the schedule is like playing the best PAC-10 team. The only teams that can dethrone us come from somewhere deep in British Columbia. Big Ten Rocks! Buckeyes win the Title again!” 10:12:07 PM 7/21/03 BIG TEN ROCKS??? “I JUST DONT SEE HOW PEOPLE ARE SO BLIND!!!!! Big-10, PAC, and ACC all think they have some tough games yet they neverplay anyone worth a SH@T outside of their conference...take miami for instance they are just like OHIO play one or two "decent" teams a year and the rest of the teams would be almost like BYE weeks for SEC teams...anyone who thinks there is a tougher conference than the SEC is ignorant to the dedication and abusive nature of SEC football...these teams beat and battle each other almost every week and they play HARD!! there is no arguing it and anyone who does will be flagged as an ignorant fool in my opinion” 10:19:51 PM 7/21/03 “"The only teams that can dethrone us come from somewhere deep in British Columbia" Come again...? Ok, yeah, I agree....the BC Lions could whip you guys... :-)” 10:38:31 PM 7/21/03 “In reference to binkleys post, see the discussion between SS and I about "typical" UT fans. binks that shade of orange wasn't quite right. You need to work on that.” 6:22:52 AM 7/22/03 “Having had ample time to listen to the radio the past three days. (i.e. no power, no TV, but thank goodness for radios)... I heard where Alabama has the toughest schedule in the country this year. Florida was 7th and Tennessee 8th. Don't ask for the source, because I didn't catch that part, but the concensus is that the SEC east will be a dog fight all year between UGA/UF/UT.” 8:59:22 AM 7/25/03 No way Chili! “As far as Army is concerned, they have the toughest schedule. They have to play real football teams, and they have no coach. All they have is Dingle Berry! Alabama should be happy.” 9:05:49 AM 7/25/03 Jump to Page << prev
