That is not the way it was advertised. It was advertised as a guaranteed spot for the donation. This was mentioned in the literature promoting it as a way to make sure those with parking passes had a spot as opposed to the old system. If the club had plans of over selling the lots it should be mentioned. This has never been mentioned when advertising parking passes. In my complaints to the bobcat club that excuse has never been made, they at least admit their mistake and make an attempt to make up for it. Next year I will just pay when I arrive. I won't be any farther away. I will certainly not accept the fact lot b had at least 20 spaces taken up by marshall tailgaters with their motor homes and parties. Once again if that is the way the bobcat club is going to treat donors then don't cry when you don't get donations. I guess I should have made that $600 donation the club called and asked for three days before the Marshall game. That might have actually been a guarantee of something. You are not going to reach out and attract new fans not associated the university if this is going to continue to happen.

"I'm sorry, we can't accept your donation. We simply don't have enough parking spaces."

It would not surprise me to see professional teams move in the FieldTurf direction in the near future.

I was actually surprised to find that of 31 NFL stadiums, only 18 at present have grass playing surfaces.

How many of those 13 are outdoor?

Turf? Metro area? Heated spa's, toilet seats?

How about just "winning"?

That is because winning doesn't happen without being able to recruit. Its always two types of fans on here; one type wants the program to be like Boise State and contend for a national championship, the other type wants to move to down to FCS because the school is located in a small market. Nobody here is content with the situation as is. Can't we just be happy that Ohio has a good MAC football team with a stable coaching staff? The program never is going to be at the level of Ohio State, not even if the school was added to the Big Ten. The school can climb up to the rankings like WVU while bringing in some 3-4 star guys. Ohio signed Windham at QB this year over Cincinnati and was able to pick up Lavon Brazil in South Florida. The Bobcats can get enough of these guys to stay in the upper tier of the MAC. Easy non-conference schedules to rack up the wins are a good move, however from a publicity standpoint I would like to see at least 1 Big Ten on the schedule as it is Big Ten country. Throwing a few things out here just to provide some prospective that is constantly missing on here. We can all be calm it will be okay.

Will Temple get into the BE? Looks like the Vil is blocking.

6.5 (I'm calling Cowboy Stadium halfway in/out). Also of interest is of course the one natural-grass field at a dome in Arizona.

It's getting deep around here . . . I just read on a Temple web site that the Owls are too good for the BE and really belong in the ACC. OK, granted they did just clobbered Maryland, but give me a break!
