It's a fair question. This team looks nothing like Toledo teams of old. They have been playing sloppy, undisciplined football.
Maybe Tom's gone a little crazy with his Samurai diet or whatever. More donuts = better coaching.

I couldn't even hear the play by play guys, I guess I'm kinda glad I couldn't hear them now.
Me neither. I thought ESPN was doing some kind of experiment where the game wasn't worth spending the money on so they just shorted it an announcing crew.

When I turned it on this morning the sound was still all goofy. They better get that shiat fixed or be prepared to start paying some MAC schools some dividends.
Unfortunately, I had no problem hearing the commentary, though I truly wish I had. I almost lost it and put my cat through the TV when, after introducing the two teams, one of the asshats said "and now, we've found a place even more interesting!" and cut to another asshat standing in the Ohio State/Michigan store...
What a huge slap in the face to the entire conference. I sincerely hope that Chryst is on the phone with Bristol this morning.

And take off that stupid whistle.
What is that giant sucking sound?
The MACBBS is pretty funny right now. They want the offensive coordinator fired and they want to run the ball on every fricking play!
I've tried to explain to those yahoo's that college sports is cyclical, and right now the wheels are rolling over their sorry excuse for a football team. It will be a shame that we won't be able to beat a good football team next Tuesday but I will settle for the W anyway. I sure hope we don't lose, that would be more embarrassing than losing to Temple
That's not a low-flying bird buzzing your tower, it was spart's post...
When I turned the tv on I expected to hear Mark May and Lou Holtz. I was actually impressed that they will have a completely different crew for our game tonight. Unless a pin head in Bristol didn't realize they could save money by using the same crew tonight seeing as Perry Stadium is 30 miles from the Glass Bowel.

With the weather forecast, who wants to make the sign that says "IS IT RAINING? OR IS LOU TALKING AGAIN?"

I felt the same way. Between the OSU-Meech stuff, having Greg Schiano on the phone during play, talking to Doug Flutie, etc., I felt as if the BSU-UT game was getting in the way of their little fluff-fest.
I fear of more of the same tonight, and next week during our game- I bet they'll be recapping the OSU-UM game, BCS stuff ad nauseum and ignore the play on the field.
They do that crap during every "Mid-Major" game. The game on the field is being played while they talk about the "big game" coming up that Saturday. It's a joke. After two hours of talking about other teams, they chime in and say how great they are for giving us exposure.

That giant sucking sound is the big bird pulling his a$$ out of a puddle right now.
Its funny how you make fun of our board for ripping our offensive coordinator, yet over here you guys rip Brandon after every game calling for his job. Why don't you explain to these yahoo's over here that sports are cyclical?
How many did you manage to get out there tonight? It looked like about 800 showed up for senior night. Congratulations.
