OK, Buzz Killington. ..

You mean you don't want to talk about frosting cupcakes and the cost of processing an application? WTF??

Number 38 turned out pretty good for you!

Yes...I think it worked out better than the Patriots getting Tom Brady in the sixth round. :)

Cake in a cup makes great cupcakes....the only cakes if seen that are better can be found at a small bakery in the River Place shops at Frankenmuth, MI...don't remember the name of it, but ust looking at onenearly made me diabetic.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

They do make a great cupcake.

It's been my special occasion treat to Tara for several years now. Birthdays, holidays, etc...always get her a cupcake. On top of a cake in the cup cupcake is where I put her ring the other day.

I will probably ask them about wedding cupcakes as well.

Toledo is fortunate to have such a top notch cupcake bakery. With the food network show and whatnot cupcakes sort of became the rage. Cake in a cup was around before that show (I think) and have won an episode of it. I've had a lot of cupcakes from places that claim to specialize in them, and none are as good, IMO. I have yet to get one in Frankenmuth, however.

The exposure millions of people have to Bowling Green State University is from our appearences on ESPN, specifically the bowl game. The admissions departments can deploy representatives to every high school in America and wouldn't be able to match that. Whether this translates into applications and offers of admission is debatable, but the general PR exposure is undeniable.

Their is an incarnation of the type of program that has been deemed acceptable by the anti-athletics crowd, one that is tolerated as long as the costs are minimal and nobody even thinks about bowl games. It's called Ohio Northern.

Those with economic interests at stake seek to drain the vitality from the university in the interests of self-preservation and blanketly and falsely condemn those who oppose these efforts as anti-education. It's somewhat rational that the FA would take this position given the interests of their membership, but they've managed to collect acolytles along the way like the irate gymnastics guy who accept that merely having competitive sports will somehow diminish academics.

We went decades with inferior facilities and lower operating budgets, recruiting budgets and coaching salaries than our peers. The transformation that has occured and will hopefully continue should have happened a long time ago.

Congrats on the engagement!! No better day trip or weekend than a summer time run to Frankenmuth...the Frankenmuth brewery has good food and you can sit on the patio and watch the Cass river roll by while downing some pretty good beer.
