Is it a coincidence

Post by orangeandbrown »

Look carefully at the season ticket brochure. If you look between Cory and Josh, the championship banner flag is showing, and on that flag, the number which is centered right between them is 1968. Coincidence?

What are you talking about?? We won the MAC championship in '99-'00!

1968 was the last time we've been to the NCAA tourney.

The Red Sox talked about 1918.....we here at BG can talk about 1968. I know Boston's waited longer, but it's been just as painful for me as a BG basketball fan, especially after the 1997, 2000 and 2002 seasons. It's amazing to think about all the great teams, players, wins and coaches we've had at BG since 1968 and we still haven't gotten to the Big Dance. :x
GO BG!!!

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

That is correct. I closed on my first house Friday.

Now I just have to wait for the current owner (my uncle) to move out. Pretty excited about it, obviously!

Congrats on the home purchase, hammb. Keep your gutters cleaned out or you'll wreck your roof. On he plus side, you can now own really big dogs...
