  1. its 20+ years old thats how its out of date, no video board on the scoreboard for replays, it sits next to a battery acid plant and face it it's not in the best area of town.
  2. which would pump more money in...student tickets or alcohol sales??
  3. how many students really do attend??? as I recall LU still drew well from the students when they played at the Civic Center
  4. rather see LU move their home basketball games to Ford Park, the Montage is 20 years old and really out of date, do they really get that many students out there? Plus FP being an off campus facility couldnt they then sell beer and improve revenues???
  5. how could part of this not have been seen coming months ago, when you see a recruiting list loaded with JUCO kids...there's a reason they went JUCO now I'm not saying it applies to everyone who goes JUCO but certainly a much higher percentage of "trouble" kids come out of JUCO than out of HS.
  6. not so sure about that, it's not the best looking one, but have seen uglier by far
  7. what exactly is atm themed fun??? I'm afraid...VERY afraid I dont need guys in overalls to show me how to "hump it" and God forbid this happen..... SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
  8. I was thinking we could have Mack could come show off his NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP RING or have Vince bring the ROSE BOWL TROPHY, but then I got to thinking oh wait its aggy night they don't win national championships or bowl games....is anyone even still alive from their 1939 title?? Funny how RC got drummed out of collie station because he couldn't win the big one and up until t+1of 2006 all the ags were begging for him back with Fraudchione there. Then again what a coup to bring in the only football coach that has actually won a bowl game at atm in the last 10 years, that 2001 win against TCU in the no longer existing galleryfurniture.com bowl was just so scintillating!!! Thought I saw Ashly last night at Madisons but wasnt sure
  9. Friday Night is also BYOB since it is ag night Bring Your Own Baaaaaaaaaaaaa I'll be wearing my burnt orange to the game that night and know many others are planning the same
  10. the refs can job you out of a close game where you lose by maybe 5 points or so but to be down by 17 end up losing by 13 and then put it on the refs is weak.
  11. He'd get shot LONGGGGGGGGGGG before then whats the old saying...i'd rather see my daughter on the pole than in love with an aggie
  12. I doubt it, she learned the words to "The Eyes Of Texas" and "Texas Fight" at the age of 2, like her dad she's a Longhorn, but thats no reflection on LU, if she were to persue an Engineering or Nursing degree I would have no problems with her attending there. She has only one mandate from me about schooling as she grows up, anywhere but college station. ;D
  13. I dont have any loyalty to there as I didnt attend college there, but that being said I would like to see them succeed as in the past, hell I did their PA announcing from about 1995-1999 in the Montagne. I was there when Tom Penders brought the Horns into Beaumont. But I think the kids LU has been getting the last what 15 years are not the answer....why is it NW La or SHSU finds kids who can play and LU can't??? Or is it that Bmt is still stuck in the late 70s-80s and thinks we're right there. There's not a school in the SLC who LU didnt used to thump regularly and it wasnt even close. Now every year they struggle around .500 while what are really lesser schools and historically programs are not beating top teams but competing with them.
  14. Case in point see tonight vs. Central Arkansas ... win by 12 against a team thats barely even D-I
  15. I'm not hiding behind anything, all I'm repeating is what a friend of mine who is a local HS basketball official told me. And as for my daughter she starts kindergarten next September, you've got a while to wait. I didnt go to college here, went to high school and thats it, just because I live here doesnt mean I owe LU anything, I dont owe them my allegiance because I live here. A kid as talented as J'Covan is, I can completely believe him to be a head case, it's all too common with kids that age these days, look at the kids who commit to one school then switch after one season because they didnt get their playing time. He went to Kelly the last 2 years on a scholarship, it wasnt like he lived in Beaumont, the faculty basically didnt invite him back for this year. but thats all off the point of this topic. I know this is Roc's first year as head coach but from what I've seen so far it's the same story verse 8 since Foster left, LU plays to the ability of their opponent, home games against smaller schools LU used to win by 40-50-60 are now by 15-20. And they havent been good on the road in ages.
  16. From some local HS refs I know he is a BIG school talent with a small school mind. I know one ref who is no longer allowed to ref Memorial games because he gave J'Covan a Technical. So if he does come here my guess is that it will be due to him not being mature enough to handle a big time program.
  17. its only if you have the NHL Center Ice package though, it's not a freebee
  18. Catters have 3 players on the all star team, defensemen Mike Madill and Paul Albers, forward Kevin Baker and the Catters head coach Malcolm Cameron will be on the bench tonight as well. Baker is alternate captain for the all star team. There are 4 different ways to watch the game tonight... Dish Network Ch 540 Direct TV ch 768 TWC ch 963 online live via B2 networks at echl.com Catters play in Pensacola Fri and Sat before coming home on Sunday to face the Ice Pilots at 2:05 the next week the South Carolina Sting Rays and former Catter goalie Davis Parley come to town for 3 games next weekend. This Sunday is also kids day, $5 tix for kids under 12 and Burger King is sponsoring it giving away free X box games
  19. when was the last time LU was ever a good road team??? Ashton is only a name because he is local and was part of the Kountze teams that made it to Austin. It's not like LU is on the verge of signing J'Covan Brown who is getting interests from the Dukes and UNCs of the world.
  20. That was embarassing, it would be one thing if LU got rolled like that against Memphis or some other top 25 program but against SHSU? Pathetic. I havent been to a Cards game in person this year because of my schedule with Wildcatters hockey but after watching that last night on tv, why would I want to??? We dont get any top teams coming in here, and this would be the same problem the football program if it were re-instated would face, no good teams coming in equals no good support.
  21. and JF David scored tonight for Binghamton in their game against the Toronto Marlies now with Kevin Baker, JF was a +2 tonight with a goal and earned 3rd star of the night.
  22. Catters came out blazing tonight Olivier Proulx scored in the first period for a 1-0, then Mike Bayrack had the natural hat trick 3 goals all in the 2nd period, one on a powerplay, one shorthanded and one even strength to make it 4-0 Catters after 2 periods. ECHL All-Star defenseman Mike Madill joined the party in the 3rd with his 2nd goal of the season to make it 5-0 before Pensacola could solve Catters goalie Miroslav Kopriva, Catters then added goals by Leon Hayward and another by Proulx to go up 7-1 before Pensacola got 2 late in the 3rd but the Catters come back home with a 7-3 win to stay tied for first in their division with Florida and Gwinnett. Florida comes to Beaumont this week starting Thursday for a 3 game set, need to get everyone out and join the party, already have 2 Catters moved up to the AHL and 3 others on the ECHL All Star team, no more football, no more Christmas shopping, no more EXCUSES why you cant be there. LETS GET LOUD....LETS GET ROWDY...LETS PLAY HOCKEY!!!!!!
  23. I'd love to see NHL in Houston, i we had any real attendance for Catters games we might stand a chance to move up to AHL and be their primary farm team and see even better players than we already have.
  24. cant take them all with what 21 spots and every team having to be represented
  25. I know the ECHL does place a premium on rookies more than veterans when it comes to all star announcements. Yahtzee was still a surprise to be left off though especially after being named goaltender of the month.
