Western Michigan plans to turn Ford Field into Waldo East:

http://csnbbs.com/thread-800064.html

Obviously, we are not playing for a NY6 bowl game like they are but we are playing for a MAC championship, just like them.

So, are the BA'ers showing up to support the team?

Over 200 views of this post and only 19 BA'ers attending the game (as of 11/27). Ouch!

I went to the other MACC appearances. I know we're playing a very good WMU team, but I can't help but think that are odds are improved this time by my living too far away to attend the game.

About 450 views (though many could be bots) with 40 votes, 24 yes and 40 no.

60% of voters going. Considering that those who voted are, by dint of their presence here, certainly among the most avid Bobcat fans, that sounds sort of low. So does 40 votes out of 450 'view.'

Is your sorry ass among the "yes" votes? I just arrived home from California yesterday, so I can attest that it is possible to get from there to here. ;-)

It's actually easier to fly to Detroit from CA than it is to drive from Athens. SFO to DTW only took me 3.5 hours and a short Uber ride to downtown D. No excuses.

Solich: 12 years of MAC and no MACC.


I support OHIO UNIVERSITY. I want OHIO FOOTBALL to win a MACC.


That's the goal. The goal is not to employ any particular coach.



I'm tired of a coach who never lose less than four games a year against cupcake schedule and who can't bring home a MACC in 12 years.

I do not favor a 13th year of this.

So what's new? You forgot to use your favorite term about 'crashing losses'.

Nothing is new. Your goal is supporting whatever you see, supporting this staff no matter what.

Mine is winning a MAC title.



Congratulations to your side for exceeding the required four losses per year.




Even the low number of posts here after last nigh, after a big, big game...a loss..in which we played pretty well. And very few really care. Given the importance of the game and how we played, I thought there'd be a ton of posts here. But, really, not very many actually.

You go on and keep supporting the moribund, though.

NEWS FLASH: Many of those who really cared were at the game and probably didn't have their usual access to a computer immediately after the game. I did, but I've always been a gadget freak and have a myraid of tablets, smartphones, laptops at my disposal when I'm on the road. Many will wait until they get home to post. And, then, after reading some of the drivel on the board in the last 24 hours may just opt to defer until after the bowl selection tomorrow.

"drivel" -- great word and one I've used often when it comes to Monroe and his repetitive posts (as in 'crashing losses' and so many more).

You're spot on but Monroe wouldn't understand that because he doesn't actually attend any OHIO games.

+1

I understand the frustration of not winning a MACC but when you have voiced your frustration hundreds of times is it the best time to say it after losing to WMU by 6 in heart breaker. WMU is a top team in the country and we played with them for 60 minutes. Anyone who is talking bad about this team and our coaches after this game is being ridiculous. I can understand voicing discontent after a loss too Texas state or CMU but not now. How bout giving some credit for how hard we fought???

Because this is so obnoxious I'll use an obnoxious analogy. It's the equivalent of watching the movie Coach Carter and after the final loss of the season in the playoffs to Ty Crane and St. Francis you start piling on the players who played their hearts out and Coach Carter who coached his heart out. WMU is an amazing team and to call out this team and coaches after this loss is stupid and not logical.

If you sold a pet diaper bag for every time you said the same damn thing, you could buy out Franks contract. Maybe focus your energy elsewhere.
