Random Thoughts From the CMU game

The first 10 minutes of that game were an absolute embarrassment to the game of basketball. I cannot remember seeing so many travels called in one game yet I also remember the refs letting them get away with about 3 or 4 additional moves that should have been whistled for traveling.

I also found out from the bad ref that the shot clock no longer resets on a kicked ball situation. It was that one older ref who barked it at me after I was pleading for a reset. I find with MAC games there is always one official that makes consistantly bad calls. THe other two last night (the Whoville guy and the older looking Bob Huggins - both of which do Big 10 games) were decent. Sure they made some weird calls but not at the rate of the older guy.

The PA guy now calls Moon Moon instead of Perrick. . . but he still seems to put the emphasis on University when announcing Bowling Green State University and he also adds an extra sylable to the word Realty. If you are reading this PA guy the word is REAL-TEA. Two sylables. Newlove REAL-TEE or Real-tea, not Real-uh-tee.

Dance team new unis- yikes.

SOmething else random I noticed last night was the two large MAC Championship banners for the Men and the Women. Each have 6 championship years listed but the mens banner is set up to have three columns while the womens has two columns. I can see the women filling theirs up before the men so I am not sure why they spaced them differently.

Ok enough for now. . .

EDIT- Oh yeah, and when you think things are bad around Anderson Arena with our program just be glad you aren't a fan of CMU. Talk about an NCAA bound very proud program that has regressed quicker than Austin Montgomery back to Indiana.

I thought the tattoo in the middle of the back of the one dance team member was neat!

Glad someone else commented first. But some of those girls could stand to lose a few pounds. And a visit to the tanning both once in a while wouldn't hurt either.

I thought they changed that rule this year. I also think that it will reset to like 8 seconds if the kick occurs when it is under 8.

First off, the dance team uniforms were a very old version. Some of the girls had lef their regular uniforms in their residence halls. The halls are shut down, so they could not get in. Therefore, the dance team had to wear the older uniforms because we had enough of those around for everyone to wear.

Second, it is the middle winter in Bowling Green, Ohio. Not really conducive to getting a tan, and I bet there are a lot of posters on this forum who could stand to lose a few pounds, particularly after the holiday season!

I can see a critique of the dance routine or the uniforms, but to suggest they need to change their appearence or drop a few pounds is a just a bit much in my opinion. They are wonderful girls, and they all love BGSU!

GO FALCONS!

Personally I'm more worried about the one girl who needs to visit Al-Mar Lanes for a few dozen cheerleaders. Sure they're not all super skinny, but I can deal with that...the one girl looks like she's unhealthily skinny, however.

For those that are interested I would recommend a trip to Ypsilanti, their dance team is generally top notch.

Mmmmmmm a dozen cheerleaders...

According to both Webster and the American Heritage Dictionary:

Re·al·tor (rē'əl-tər, -tôr') pronunciation
Three syllables.

Oops! Where is my mind!?

I meant cheeseburgers. The girl looks anorexic or something. If she broke a bone it wouldnt' require an x-ray...
