    Top 5 RB's in Buff History?

    THIS is a good example of why CU is mediocre in college football. I promise you that Howard "Hopalong" Cassidy is not forgotten at Ohio State, Tom Harmon at Michigan, Jon Arnett and Mike Garret at USC, Pete Dawkins at Army, Earl Campbell at Texas, John David Crow at Texas A & M..........I...

    Improve the game-day experience

    Well, I'm with Sackman on this. The food at the stadium is odious, and when you compare it to what you can consume at a credulous tailgate like Sackman's, well, no comparison. Why anyone would go to the game with an empty stomach (leaving out the alcohol, of course, because that would be a...

    Chris Fowler replaces Musberger as play-by-play for Sat. Night Football

    Well, I sure loved John Madden, but my wife didn't like him. She didn't like Digger Phelps either, so what does she know.....one of the greats, of course.

    Chris Fowler replaces Musberger as play-by-play for Sat. Night Football

    Musberger Just the opposite. One of his famous early episodes was roundly criticizing the black salute by the two sprinters at the Olympics in, what, Mexico City. He has also had a few other sketchy events in his life, got in trouble as a youth. Sounds like a corporate shill to me!

    Chris Fowler replaces Musberger as play-by-play for Sat. Night Football

    Years ago he was fired by, what, CBS? At that time he was one of the only sports announcers I did not like. I didn't even hate Cosell that much! But Musberger with his cloying, sycophantic style nauseated me. And I was not alone. Most people I knew didn't like the guy, and I understood most...

    Parking today: Franklin Field lots closed

    It WAS horrible. I came from the east and a golf tournament. And I was shocked to see Franklin Field bare. You told me they pay $1,000.00 a season to tailgate there. They charge that kind of money they better have the place open for a game like this. I continue to be amazed at the...

    Richardson in leadership role, looks to turn Buffs around

    I'm certain all this gives Sackman warm, fuzzy feelings.....

    There is no way I would include CU with the likes of Alabama and Ohio State. That is obvious. I have always been proud of CU's academic traditions, and those traditions have a role in the struggle for CU's football team on the national stage. And I don't know how you "drop the hammer" on the...

    Jumped right in the good discussion with the ever reliable ad hominem approach, eh? :huh:

    Highest Paid State Employee by State

    My argument is based upon money but most certainly NOT based upon envy. I would argue that the Penn State scandal largely occurred because of the culture of big time athletics, television and a celebrity society. Clearly these are topics too large to air out in this sort of forum. But I...

    Wow! It was a great argument. I was particularly impressed with the evolution of higher education fitting into the evolving needs of the modern world. And the observation about who we are is sensational. But I don't remember the book as ignoring the schools that don't field athletic teams...

    Your point is a narrow one. I am not certain what you conclude if what you say is correct. But in order to understand the subject completely, the widening gap between the worlds of athletes and coaches and students and scholars you might read "The Game of Life: College Sports and Educational...

    Your comments refer pretty much to a very small number of universities in the big picture. Most schools that compete do not "pump back into higher education." http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2013/01/15/division-i-colleges-spend-more-on-athletes-than-education/1837721/

    Alright...props to the NUbs

    When dealing with Sackman one needs all the tactical advantages out there.
