The Temple dude is definitely a troll and the love can get annoying, but banning them isn't the answer.
Besides, those two are always the smartest guys in the room, just ask them, they will tell you!

I don't know, "vapid" maybe but I still object to troll. This thread is at 1100+ views and rolling. Ive seen some of Munny's threads from 4 months ago which are still languishing with no responses and a very tepid 350 views.

Hey Football Jim, my mission is virtually accomplished here. There are several BobCat Attack fans who cant stop talking about "]["emple. I was just looking at a thread about a post game wrap up between Buffalo/Ohio at a local watering hole where the poster admits the conversation centered on my Football Owls. And then the Buffalo Asst Coach joined them and talked about my Football Owls. In fact, there are numerous threads, here and on other Bobcat Attack boards that focus on "]["emple. 

Troll? Hardly. I doubt very much that your fine graduates are hypnotized by a mere troll.

Face it, many of you have "]["emple on the brain. You should, we have landed and we ARE the Football Flagship of this Conference. Wait until we actually take the MAC trophy over the Allegheny's and fete it on North Broad with crab fries, scrapple, Yuengling and one with american and fried onions.

Don't kid yourself MH, the LOVE brings the page views, not you....that's a historical fact that was in play long before you arrived, and will be in play long after you leave.

I've long lined the Mods pockets with Ad dollars thanks to the # of eyeballs that come to see what the LOVE is thinking on one Ohio topic or another.

I dont see any reason to engage Love. I only see fit to right outrageous comments or embellished facts about the Owl. Of course, I admit an occassional sortie across the bow to make sure a certain poster or two knows I'm lurking and ready to correct. Slavin, between this site and others, occassionally needs his dingy rocked lest he venture into inter Conference water with another said incorrectamundo.

For starters why don't you take a refresher course in English -- it's intraconference not interconference  when we are just talking among us MAC Daddies (and Mamas).

I don't know Monroe, having a dirty bird coming to BA  to talk smack and make a complete a$$ of him self can be very entertaining!
I did enjoy your original post and the spirit in which you presented it. Just might be your best post.
Sure got the juvies all riled up!

Looks like gocatsgo hasnt been able to find a respectful post from Munny or JSF regarding another fan's viewpoint so I might as well keep posting. Unfortunately, this morning Im the bearer of some very bad news. Joe Vento, Founder of Geno's Steaks has passed. Vento would only serve those who spoke English. I always preferred Geno's over Pat's and now I must recommend Tony Luke's pork w broccoli rabe over both.

Or unlike others, I simply don't have time to go through everyone's posts.  If you want to go ahead and troll other teams message boards, it is a free country.  I would think that you would spend more time on Temple's message boards...oh wait.

Edit: Forgot to mention, I completely agree with Doc Bobcat and yourself, can't go wrong with  a Yuengling from Pottsville, PA

That's what I was thinking.

Good beer around there. If he wants to see good football, go see Andy Reid and Michael Vick. Al Singleton aside, there aren't many Owls in the pros.

Otherwise, the level of boredom portended by the lurking and trolling is off the charts.

More inanity over night capped off w Putnam's contribution. Evidently, the Put Man isn't aware that Mr Vick enters his 9th season with all of two playoff wins under his belt, among quite a bit more which hasn't been intercepted by his cranium. I will ignore some of the other juvenile banality.


Hopefully some knowledgeable fans will author a few threads about the NMSU tilt and what your team brings to the table to open the 2011 season. Looks like Las Vegas has shaved off a point a half in favor of the Aggie bettors. Maybe they are reading some of the scintillating analysis. "he's tall" "he's fast" he's good"...

Lil edification for Put Man and the like. We're a week away from our game v Nova. Last year's tilt had 60% of the non BCS Players drafted in the first two rounds of the NFL Draft. Yepper 2 from Temple and 1 from Nova were 3 of the 5.

You guys think you will have a #1 at the Gardner Webb fiasco? How about this kind of excitement?

We have high hopes for our lads this year.  We expect a lot from them.

The least we could do is to all learn the songs:

"Stand Up and Cheer"

Stand up and cheer,
Cheer loud and long for old Ohio,
For today we raise
The Green and White above the rest.

Our teams are fighting
And they are bound to win the fray.
We've got the team--O-H!
We've got the steam--I-O!
For this is old Ohio's day!
Rah! Rah! Rah!


 

Alma Mater, Ohio"
(Chorus only)

 

 

Alma Mater, Ohio
Alma Mater, brave and fair!
Alma Mater, we hail thee,
For we own thy kindly care.

Alma Mater, Ohio
When we read thy story o'er,
We revere thee and cheer thee
As we sing thy praise once more.

 

The following is from the Stand Up and Cheer Memories section under Fan Center at ohiobobcats.com (which thread you will all love and many will want to post to):

It was 1982, fresh off 4 straight wins; the Miami Redskins were now coming into Athens. The game was for sole possession of first place and would put the 'Cats record at a very respectful 5-2 and, undefeated in the MAC. Miami's Brian Pillman headed one of the best defenses in the MAC and he was a consensus A.P. All-American. I was playing on the offensive line at the time and we knew we had our hands full. Coach Burke put in a game plan to double team Pillman on each & every play. By the time the 2nd quarter was done, so was Pillman. Tim Linson had an excellent game and seemed to be in Pillman's legs the entire day. Miami was never in the game and the Bobcats shut out our longtime foe 20-0 in front of what was at the time, one of the largest crowds in pre-renovated Peden stadium history (I think about 20,000 people).

When we were in double sessions each summer, Coach Burke made every new player learn each & every word of the Ohio University fight song. Some of us wondered why but we did it anyway. Following this game, President Charles Ping came into the locker room and, in his now raspy voice from cheering, congratulated us. Then he started to sing STAND UP AND CHEER! Every single person in the locker room joined in and started to sing as loud as we could. President Ping knew each word of that song and so did the whole team, thanks to Coach Burke. I don't think I've ever felt more proud to be singing the OHIO fight song in that misty room filled with those fine young men that had just accomplished what so few had thought could be done. To this day, it brings back chills to think of all those special people and that very, very special version of 'STAND UP & CHEER'.

As you can see in the fabulous post-temples game video, the tradition holds; the players all know the words to Stand Up and Cheer.

Here's hoping everyone on this board does, also.
