Not sure about Indians? I see more cowboys lol...nah I left Jersey in the eighties for NYC and greater Albany,NY but still have a mom,friends and siblings there and notice many who WOULD have played FB when I was coming up now playing more and more Lax...upward mobility? Who knows but parents seem more inclined to keep their kids away from tackle FB into the safer but more expensive Lax....hate to say it but FB is or seems to be following the path of boxing!! And inner city kids prefer hoop's so the sport of FB is shrinking little by little south evidenced by the scarcity of talent the further north and east you go much to my dismay. Don't see a reverse of the trend either. The future is in Lax in the fall but will spectators care? It seems the B1G is betting on it.
I've been in Arizona and Cali near and on reservations and never once saw a game of Lax though i get your point. Its non Indians who are pushing Lax now..this ain't the seventies or eighties anymore. Natives are making up less and less to the point i almost forgot it was rooted in Native culture. Truth is all's i care about are the scores...looks like a fun game too play though?
Every time I open this thread it is to see a credible source announce "UConn to the B1G", every time.
Lol, you may have to settle for "Boston College Burns in a Lake of Eternal Athletic Suckiness."
AAU – a step in the right direction if you want the B1G. But as you know, many (some) schools with this accreditation and, generally speaking, within or near the B1G’s current footprint haven’t received an invitation, yes? Troubling times.
I know that's what you meant ... I was jk but like i said upstater i'm quite familiar with Native difference's regionally similar to european celtic tribes,culture and regional uniqueness. Keep us on our toes though upstater..i enjoy benefiting from you're knowledge.
Agreed Gretchen, but UConn's pedigree goes far beyond it's research acumen. The AAU is just a potentially significant missing link.
Welcome Gretchen I enjoy you fresh and unique views recently.
Thank you, Nicky. It is a pleasure to be here.
Yes, welcome to the Boneyard! Gretchen, just curious as to who you root for in college? Curious because Indiana was our first opponent at the Rent. Therefore, they will always be a B1G part of "our" history! LOL
Bad Dog! You already know for whom I root...you looked at my profile. Thank you for your kind greeting. Now be a good doggy and don't stir the pot!
