Maybe I'll try to get on that board JUST to see you get arrested for terrorism. Obviously I'd expose the plot before you were able to carry out your jihad, save our beloved new board, and be recognized as a hero to Appalachian athletics for years to come.
Also, good to know J-Cline is pro-blowing up the new video board.
Right. Those two terms will give my name more heat than typing "jihad" just now.Rekdiver wrote:Also the use of the t word and the j word has now been flagged by the NSA. All of Gonzo's emails are now on the watch list....
Wrong. I like the 21st century and video boards but I don't like the interrupting the band with stupid commercials and I don't like having to look to Owens to see the yards to go and down. Gets my head to spinning looking back and forth for no apparent reason. Hopefully everything will be on the new board at once and they'll start respecting the BOD enough not to drown them out. We'll see.AtlAppMan wrote:Are you serious?

Maybe you should watch from that recliner of yours if looking from one end of the field to the other makes you dizzy.NewApp wrote:Wrong.

Also, I did like the old board well enough that I would rather have had the million bucks spent for some other urgent need. As for the one in Holmes, I'm looking forward to seeing it.
I seldom watch the replays (except for controversial referee calls) because I'm busy looking at what is about to happen on the field and see who is coming in and who is going out.
Either I didn't express myself well or you're just trying to be obnoxious and putting words in my mouth.

Piling on, but basically what T Dog said. Nothing happened during the week of the fourth. Seem to be working some more on the middle hole. I can snap a picture and post on twitter, but nothing really had changed.AppOrange wrote:Any picture updates?
