  1. My dad, who actually did live before storms were named, said that most people enjoyed the storms because they came with cool air and blew the bugs out of town. RIP dad.
  2. Do you really believe that a 50,000 seat stadium would cost that much? Its not how much I believe, its how much a quality venue of that size costs. Google TCF Bank Stadium.
  3. Or moot. Sorry, I couldn't resist. No, I want them to shut up. I don't care if its irrelevant. lol
  4. Simple solution is for you guys that want an OCS stadium come back with the $300 million needed for a quality stadium that fans aren't afraid will collapse on them and donate it to USF. Than the argument is mute.
  5. You won't regret getting an XBox for college football. I have 3 PS3s and a Wii btw. If you don't get an XBox, the feed is in HD on the website with a good connection. HDMI out on your computer and into your HDTV is the second best setup after the XBox.
  6. When the brought in the consulting firm, on Media Day, it said that ideas were put forth for branding. Sure it is.
  7. Thanks. I didn't spend time on it this year even though I have the preseason football package online. Duh. As for college colors day. My wife is going to ask her site manager if its ok. Its the kind of thing you do to lift spirits. They do that kind of stuff all the time. Here....deep in SEC country....one of her coworkers is a BULL ALUMNI! HAHA. And I have my daughter all set too.

  9. They have on NFL.com now where you can draft and have Google Plus webcam meeting going on during the draft. lol. Scary.
  10. That was for one of my Keeper players. I have a waiver I hope goes through. Let me see what happens.
  11. Here is the facebook page of College Colors Day. Its not an ESPN website, its a separate entity and ESPN was holding a contest in conjunction with them. https://www.facebook...ollegecolorsday Here is the official website where you can do things like pledge your work site to participate Friday and submit a photo to be put in their yearbook section. There is a contest where you can win a tailgate party for your entire office. http://collegecolorsday.com/Home.aspx And of course, who is behind all of this? ©2012 The Collegiate Licensing Company
  12. ESPN can not stand when someone other than themselves is running things behind the scenes. Cursed college students...messing up their crowning of an SEC team. Under official rules: "ANY ATTEMPT BY ANY PERSON TO DELIBERATELY UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE SWEEPSTAKES ... MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS ... AND SPONSOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES ... INCLUDING CRIMINAL PROSECUTION."
  13. You need the sports package hombre. Thanks for the info NewEnglandBull Maybe one day ... Dude. Call them. I got it for half price for 6 months so its $4.50/month (reg price is $9). It has great channels like NFL Red Zone, Madison Sq Gardens which has Big East games and the Big 10 network. It also has the Sun network, all those fishing shows from Florida. Sun is 422 on Dish.
  14. I wouldn't go as saying its a joke of a network. The problem is that they have gone from reporting the games to manipulating sports as they have become more powerful. I really think Congress needs to hold hearings.
  15. I am not surprised about the negative Big East tone. I am surprised about the lack of talk about USF which did receive votes in both polls, was chosen by Athlon and Phil Steele to win or be Big East co champ.
  16. LOL. There will be a blackout maps on ESPN Game Plan that should be the same for ESPN3. Those are usually the same games, although there will be a few that say ESPN3 exclusive. The link to this map is on this page. http://proxy.espn.go...=viewpage&ccv=0 EDIT: The game is an ESPN3 exclusive. So it won't be on the map when it goes live, just have to tune in and see.
  17. Friday's College Football Live was going over the conferences. When it came to the Big East, all bad news. The only glimmer was Boise St coming in. And USF...not mentioned one time. Charlie Strong, Pitt and Rutgers were the teams/coaches mentioned. Strong was said to be the one most likely moving on to better things. And the only Big East player mentioned was Bridgewater. Oh, I guess we were mentioned...."Bridgewater, out of south Florida.... The bias was just so blaring. "The conference commish hopefully can get a TV good contract". "I guess they have a uniqueness with being in multiple time zones", to paraphrase. Garbage. In closing Van Pelt said if you could name all the incoming Big East teams you are a better man than him. Finally..the truth! Van Pelt reminds me of someone else,
  18. The BEST way to watch ESPN3 is via the XBox app. Its free and its like watching HD cable or satellite. It has split screen and scrolling news, PLUS with ESPN3, you get all the ESPN Game Plan games..FOR FREE. That is a $120 value. (note that you need a gold plan for Xbox, you can buy by the month, quarter or year, a year is $60) As for Bullscast, I don't know what games are on it. You may pay for it and not get the ESPN3 games. I don't know that for sure. I do know that they sometimes have like 1 game on Bullscast a season that is only available there.
  19. Yeah, I have like 4 RBs and one is a starter, lol. Of course, its slim pickings but try to make lemonade out of lemons at the position.
  20. TBO Prep coverage announced that schools are going to be closed in Hillsborough county and that football teams are no allowed to practice. Will this storm effect USF's prep for Nevada? http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/sports/category/C667/
  21. I guess you missed the part of the " Pledge and you can win a college sports spending spree".
  22. If there hasn't been any lawsuits yet, I doubt there will be any in the future. What I think would happen is Congressional Hearings on the matter. There is a mountain of money involved and public schools. If what ESPN is doing is true, its almost like racketeering...from its puppeteering.
