Will everyone please quit talking about who we would rather play?!

[Bucky Dog]

We need to quit talking about who we would rather play in the championship. We have two good teams left on our side that are very capable of beating us twice. We talk about our superstitions and believ me I am following mine through all of this. But to quote the movie Bull Durham, "you gotta take them one game at a time, and the good Lord willing, it will all work out."

One more Bull Durham quote, " don't, ever, EVER, 17 with a streak!"

UCLA

Touché

 

[engie]

Yeah -- SPS is certainly going to jinx it**

 

[hatfieldms]

I'm hoping it is UCLA

....

 

[Faustdog]

That's one of the nice things about being a fan. We can talk or think about whatever games we want, and it will have no impact whatsoever on the games being played on the field. Who we would rather play if we make it that far is a legit topic.

So who do you hope wins tonight?**

 

[Bucky Dog]

Indiana

 

[Requiem For A Dawg]

I agree. If State loses, I'm sure Cohen will blaming it on SPS looking ahead, instead of taking it one game at a time.

 

[Xenomorph]

Well.. I'd rather NOT play OSU...

Is that good enough?

 

[RocketDawg]

We definitely will not be playing OSU in the finals (championship)

which was the question, or plea, he was asking/making. If they win tonight and then beat us twice, they'll be in the big game against somebody else.

 

[Xenomorph]

So I'm in luck! *

[RocketDawg]

Yep. Actually ...

I prepared a reply to his post along the same lines as you were thinking. But luckily, I reread what he said and was glad I never posted it.

This is all Delta Airlines fault...

It's because of them that I'm reading this board on an iPhone while on a THREE HOUR LAYOVER in Atlanta. All because they've cut the number of flights into Memphis from 300 a day down to a ridiculous 60. 17ers.

 

[RocketDawg]

Did Memphis remain a hub after the Northwest merger with Delta? Are those 60 flights you speak of from/to Atlanta, or Delta/Northwest overall? Regardless, that's a severe cutback. Sort of like Nashville with the American hub left, but they picked up Southwest so didn't suffer too much.

 

[Xenomorph]

A Delta hub Memphis is no longer. *

 

[RocketDawg]

Which means, I suppose, that they're not a hub at all for passengers anymore

Just FedEX?

Indiana can't hit a lefty.
