    Firings: What should happen vs. what will happen

    As an older, long time STH this may be my breaking year. With only one(?) more season in our current stadium and then 2-3 in who knows where I have lost my desire to make the trek up to Evanston to watch this mess. Hoping that if I stick around 3-4 years it will be worth it is a pipe dream...

    How many West Parking Lot and STH Will Not Renew?

    I lost my West Lot parking this year after 20+ years and was moved to Golf Course. Not sure how close I was to same parking as I "assumed" everything was good. My bad! As one of my group has mobility issues this didn't work. Ended up selling half my parking tixs. Not sure what I will do next...

    TJ Green out for year

    Has his specific injury or type of surgery been reported? As a foot surgeon I have a professional curiosity. I understand this info may be private but also know sometimes it is reported.

    OT -Gullivers

    I bartended at Biddy's while a Grad student and fraternity RA 79-80. Great bands but my favorite night was meeting Belushi and Aykroyd during their Blues Brothers filming. They came in a few times for "research". Aykroyd gave me the best tip I ever got there.

    Open the Lots!

    I also think last night was the worse situation I had ever seen and I've been going for 40 years. I don't expect expensive alterations for a few days a year but the organization is amateur. A few simple things like Evanston cops actually having a clue would help. There needs to be a few limited...

    Honestly Describe Your Posting Persona

    No, his dad is a great guy. I actually gave my extra ND tix to him as I was pretty sure they wouldn't end up in a ND fan's hands.

    Questions from the rewatch Re: the two "safeties" committed by MSU

    Seems like a straightforward rule change is needed. If the illegal touching occurs with a throw from the end zone a safety should be called. The team should not ever benefit from a penalty.

    New football facility

    Did you ever notice that no matter what the thread starts as it ends up in a star/ratings discussion?

    Opening Line

    Don't know if anyone else heard this but the ESPN analyst who picked us to lose the bowl game last year as his surest pick (Believe it's Kannell sp?) picked us yesterday on his locks for the weekend on his midday radio show. This was based on what he stated as 3 1/2 favs. At 3 1/2 I'd take it.

    Football STH basketball ticket offer....

    I also responded, sent an e-mail and did get an email back from my rep. She said the deadline for ordering was the 7th and tickets would be e-mailed shortly after that. Expect today or tomorrow.

    How about Cam Green?

    Green really became a force yesterday after his high school career was highlighted on the video board in the "local Cats segment" NU has been using this year. Probably a coincidence but can't wait to see who gets highlighted at the Purdue game.

    Can We Stop?

    This is an observation from Saturday. With the team, the band and the students on the east side there was almost no standing and cheering in the west mid field stands. At least not until OT. Sections of the band coming over and playing in the aisles helped. An Iowa City newspaper referred to...
