  1. I would like to see the RnR HOF. I've been to Canton, and enjoyed it ... worth the trip. I hope they still have Y.A. Tittle's shoulder pads on display...looked like two pieces of cardboard tied together! Agree on the bolded. And to add to that comment (not to hijack the thread), the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum is every bit the equal to Cooperstown. Cooperstown itself is a unique experience, and the fact that the Hall/Museum encompasses all of Baseball separates it, but the Reds hit it out of the park (pun intended).
  2. Bones recently hired as an on-course reporter for TGC/NBC.
  3. Recent form at Home has been much better than earlier in the season. If anything, Cup success has probably hurt them when it comes to USL competition. I doubt we would have seen last nights lineup had they not been playing 3 games per week.
  4. Cleveland Municipal Stadium, 1985. During the height of the Dawg Pound, I was there for a Raider game. At halftime, me and a few thousand extremely intoxicated fans head to the restroom under the stands. As is typical at a football game, halftime crowds are quite large. I get in line, 6-8 abreast, a good 25 patrons deep. When I get near the end of the line, I realize everyone in all 6-8 lines are relieving themselves against a cinder block wall, with one drain in the floor!!! So, when in Rome, ......
  5. I've been to many FCC matches, and wholeheartedly agree with the bolded. No new stadium will be able to come close to the atmosphere currently at Nippert and the Clifton community. A friend joined me for the Fire game ... one of those guys who "doesn't understand" soccer ... and said it was one of the best sporting events he ever attended. The Match was that compelling. FCC has built a solid case around its' MLS candidacy. It seems the only roadblock is the stadium. Right now, there is zero appetite in Hamilton County for public money for stadium. That leaves Newport, unless ownership can somehow twist MLS' arm regarding Nippert. Let's hope that comes to fruition.
  6. What was controversial about his statement? Sometimes, the truth hurts.
  7. The problem with that statement, is the person who would do the firing is Jurich. And Jurich has already proven he's willing to "look the other way" (with Pitino's first indiscretion, then the Petrino hiring). And the university President is willing to "look the other way" regarding Jurich, because of the money machine he's turned the athletic department into. Jurich is is the root of the problem. He, as well as Pitino, would have lost their jobs at any other university a year ago. Both should be canned, and the university should start anew.
  8. Interesting observation....I have only had a chance to see the first three hours, but in all the footage they have shown (and there was a lot), not once did they show a 3-pointer fly. The game is totally different today.
  9. Release from the University: http://nkunorse.com/news/2017/6/15/mens-basketball-northern-kentucky-university-announces-new-contract-for-head-coach-brannen.aspx Kudos to Bothof.
  10. I was there, as well as the LouCity game. Amazing there was +30K for a professional soccer game on a weeknight. Surprisingly, the energy was different with 6K at the LC match. That match there was an "if we win this we get the MLS team from up the road" excitement that was really cool. Last night's atmosphere was a "nervous" energy. A "... can we compete GET IT OUTTA THERE" kind of energy. When Djibi's header hit the back of the net, the place exploded. Bedlam. I've been to several games the last two years, and always have a great time. If you've never been, you should check it out. You won't be disappointed.
  11. I've been critical of Tyler Polak in the past. Never again. Dude was nails tonight. Should have been Man of the Match. He was that good.
  12. Hell Is Real Derby|Cincy Shirts|FC Cincinnati vs Columbus Crew Tee
  13. In reference to a religious billboard on I71 linking the cities that's been there forever. That, and Cincinnati's subtle dig at Columbus and their (now eroding) inroads to the Queeen City.
