•I was very curious to see how coach Tim Beckman would handle sitting in front of the BG banner in the interview room at Perry Stadium postgame. Two years ago after Toledo's loss to the Falcons, he walked in, saw the banner and refused to sit down at the podium and instead forced the media to shuffle over to the corner of the room away from the banner. Yesterday, he had four players stand behind him in front of the banner so that he could conduct his postgame news conference at the podium. Then, like a congo line moving clockwise, after Beckman was done, one of the players came up to the podium and Beckman took his spot in the human shield. Then when that player was done, the next guy up would take his seat and the other guy would move back into the shield, and it followed from there until each Rocket had his turn. Interesting to say the least.

Awww boo hoo.

I don't think you should be mad at the Toledo players for celebrating a victory over their rivals. Maybe be mad at your team and your own crappy fan base for not even giving a crap about the rivalry anymore. If the rest of the Falcon fan base is anything like the crybabies on this board they view the rivalry with the Miami as more important anyways. Why shouldn't your players feel the same way?

Its like you don't care about the rivalry until Toledo wins and celebrates their victory over you. Thats messed up.

Tough talk for a candy ass who takes his own ambulance to football games...then again, if I had to go that dump of a campus over there by Dorr and Detroit...a neighborhood that hosts a nightly bullet in the head festival....I'd probably hedge my bets and take my own meat wagon too.

Beautiful...a couple of loud mouths from Toledo...where every win is celebrated like it's your first and every loss is the fault of someone else..be it the refs, the league, the weatherman, your effeminate fathers or the producers of Disney on Ice. You win like losers and you lose like petulant children....but that's OK. You'll choke in the end, it's what timmy's best at....
