    Awesome (and a little sad) Donovan article

    Great article about DC and his mom (evidently her passing was six years yesterday). DC article Sad but beautiful article. I was 25 years older when my mom passed away than he was when he lost his mom. I can't even imagine what that must be like for a teenager.

    ESPN - SEC Schedule Reveal

    Not sure if this is the best place to post this but ESPN (main channel, mot the deuce or U) has a two hour show covering next season's SEC schedule. Pisses me off with the levels they will go to marginalize basically everyone else.

    I Love It!

    There are a few schools that we owe a beat down. Among them are Kansas for 2016 and UCLA for 1995 (we also owe Pitino a beatdown for,.. well... being Pitino). In 1999 and then 2004 We exacted vengeance on Duke for 1990 and 1991 respectively. In 1999 we also took our pound of flesh from Ohio...

    Complaints, criticisms, comments

    There are quite a few things I want to comment on (in no particular order): Somebody needs to tell our players (guards/wings) that they don’t have to immediately dribble the ball when they receive a pass on the perimeter. Over the last two games I lost count of how many times someone received...

    Bowl Game Interest?

    Athletic Department email I just received an email from the athletic department gauging interest in attending a bowl game (see link). If anyone who is not a season ticket holder (would not have received the email) is interested, please let the athletic department know. It sounds like a) we...

    Boneyard Benevolence - GoFundMe link added

    For the CCSU game one of our board members initiated a thread about a handicapped friend of his attending the game (see link below): Handicapped Parking at Rentschler Field Following discussions with him, we are attempting to repeat this with the addition of the two of them also attending a...

    Just saw UConn football in a Peloton commercial

    A peloton ad showed a (from all appearances legitimate) former Pitt player and showed a television clip where you could clearly see the block C, Andre (#2) and Sherminator (#49). Felt great that it was from our better days. They will return!

    I see this as a sign

    For the remainder of today (and some of tomorrow) Wikipedia's home page has this as it's featured article! 2010 Papa John's Bowl While bouncing around the internet I noticed this, which brought back memories (mostly good, one bad; Jasper) of when we had a team that was capable of dominating a...

    A bit of venting on opportunities lost

    I know that I am not alone on this board but I was at the first game at the Rent (we blew out Indiana). I also know that I am not alone in knowing what games at Memorial decades ago were like. For a little clarification, forty years ago was the start of my senior year (college, not HS). The...

    Fox just rubbed salt in the wounds

    At the end of the Giants game they ran an ad "Joe Williams and the Utah Utes vs Richard Lagow and the Indiana Hoosiers". It was for a bowl game. Pisses me off!!!!!!!

    A (different) View from (a few rows back in) Sec 241

    After yesterday's game there is so much I want to post that I figured I would try my hand at this (apologies to BL for borrowing his theme). I am officially in next year and beyond mode. I don't know if the staff has what it takes to get us where we need to be (and I am looking at a much...

    Don't know if it was the same

    But once again I was robbed. Four years ago someone stole a flagpole and the 2004 national champion flag that it was flying. With a slightly different setup since (making it more difficult to remove a flagpole) I have flown far more flags since and had gone unscathed until today. Some A**...

    Thoughts on B-12 Expansion

    First time on a device with an actual keyboard since Monday and there are a few things I wanted to comment on but thought better of using a tablet or cell phone. I don't know a whole lot of details about what the school's leadership is doing but from the little I do know we should all be...

    More positive mojo!

    I unfortunately can't post a link from my phone but I just heard that the eastern US will once again be swarmed by 17 year cicadas this spring. I'm confident everyone remembers the events of the spring the last time they visited.

    A song for August West

    With proper credit and respect given to the late, great John Lennon: The Huskies are rising, we're going for five. Can't stop momentum. This championship drive. I must help the mojo. It may make me puke. I'll do what I have to. We'll always hate Duke. Cold Turkey… With Ketchup… On a...

    This needs to be said

    Maybe it's because New Englanders are skeptics by nature. Perhaps it has to due with a large portion of our fan base being Red Sox fans who matured well before 2004, leading them to automatically assume the worst. Whatever the cause, that over the past two weeks we were unable to beat...

    I think we need a little perspective...

    I am at a loss as to how our fan base has become as jaded and entitled as we have become. I’ve said many times that if enduring this season was part of the cost of last season’s championship run I’ll gladly pay it. We have Boneyarders b!tching about the NIT yet after both North Carolina and...

    Army game at Yankee Stadium

    I went to the Yankee-Pirate game at the stadium yesterday and in the lot my buddies & I parked in was a huge tailgate. I spoke with enough people to eventually find the organizer (who is running a start-up ticket agency) and found out that the tailgate (which has ~ 235 people yesterday) was a...
