We have a lot to offer at Bowling Green on and off the field
With all the new building going on campus Bowling Green has a lot to offer to incoming students. I've seen weight rooms at Toledo, Ball State and Kent and the falcons are right at the top. We need more student support at home games as well as country music on the PA system.

Student support will come with wins at this school. It is unfortunate, but true. And the country music will probably never happen because it's not the "in" thing.

I'm with you right up to the country music part, birdman. I'd like to see less PA and more band. The band actually goes to the school...did Neil frickin' Diamond go to BGSU? No...we need to cut that "Sweet Caroline" crapola yesterday...
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Actually I did hear Kenny Chesney's "The Boys of Fall" this past year. Almost fainted in the booth (if that lady hadn't fainted outside of our booth, I just may have).footballguy51 wrote: And the country music will probably never happen because it's not the "in" thing.

A song I'd like to hear -
"The Shake" by Neal McCoy (great cheerleader and dance team number)

I've only heard it at volleyball games this year, and hopefully that ends next year in the StrohRedwingtom wrote:When's the last football game you were at Flip?Flipper wrote:I'm with you right up to the country music part, birdman.

Heh..heh...you busted me. I had my thyroid taken out first week of September and just as I was recovering from that in October I took a nasty tumble and broke my left humerus...that isn't nearly as whimsical as it sounds...and wound up with a plate and a half dozen screws in my upper arm.
long story short...I didn't do jack from September until about now.

OUCH! Glad you are better and GLAD THEY STOPPED PLAYING IT AT FOOTBALL GAMES!!!

Everytime I hear that song, I think of Robin Williams and the kids dancing on the dining room table in Mrs. Doubtfire.Redwingtom wrote: Although we need to get slightly more original than Jump Around...although that is a sweet tune.

"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"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."

Send the DJ home and enjoy a live performance on game day.
The band and cheerleaders should be tasked with figuring out ways to get the crowd to make more noise,... not the DJ!

Re: We have a lot to offer at Bowling Green on and off the f
Agreed! The only time songs should be playing over the PA is during pre-game warm-ups. Once the National Anthem is played, it should be the FMB finishing out the game. And just my opinion.....they should play 'jock jams' again during pre-game!! "lllllllet's get ready to rumblllllllllllle."
