  1. I agree, unless you are talking about what i consider real 'integrity'.. i.e. cheating/fudging grades to make them eligible, etc... then that is a slap in the face to the student who had to pay to take htat class, to get a passing grade, to get their degree. but when it comes to letting "intellectually challenged" people play on a college team, and reducing academic grade standards for htem to allow it, I could care less. I dont care if a star football player is failing econ101... thats not what he is there for. Let the kid play football, and learn something in hte process. Just dont fuck with his grades to help you out. If he wants a degree, let him earn that shit...
  2. They have to have a 2.0 GPA... a fucking C average... not exactly a fucking genius... Here is the handbook... it basically says... dont be a fucking idiot... http://www.und.com/school-bio/nd-handbook.html
  3. I am well versed in ND's higher academic standards than most FBS schools, what I am saying is, you dont have to be a fucking pre-med student, or a valedictorian in HS to play football at ND... you just can't be stupid... like most FBS schools allow. Most FBS schools, putting priority on sports instead of academics, will allow students to have failing grades, with plans in place to bring htem back up, or allow you to have a couple D's or something... ND just says, dont be a fucking idiot, and you wont ahve a problem... The issue is, your average STAR football player, is fucking stupid, They can run a slant route like a fucking NFL pro, but they cant figure out high school level geometry class if their life depended on it.
  4. Oh, back on the Teague story... I wonder what big football school will pick him up after a year, and the media will spin it as a sob story for "look at how [insert big football school here] gave this young man a second chance to make something of himself"
  5. ummm, not really. I mean, it means he isnt fucking stupid... but Its not like you need to be the top of your class in joe-shmoe public high school. Just dont be the lower 3rd dipshit.
  6. Make that FORMER Cincy player... http://espn.go.com/blog/bigeast/post/_/id/29857/backup-cincinnati-rb-teague-dismissed Unlike "other schools" we dont fuck around when it comes to student-athelete integrity...
  7. fuck yea, and the Reds, and Proctor and Gamble, 5/3 Bank, the bad ass mother fuckers at GE, and we kicked them Chiquita motherfuckers out of here.
  8. I love how the C-bus guys feel the same way about Dayton, as the Cincy guys... Well, most of us are pretty sure Dayton's primary export is Meth...
  9. Kind of ghetto? No, kind of fucking awesome. Best facial hair ever. Thanks to me for posting that up. That shit is great.
  10. Apparently Urban Meyer isnt afraid to open his pocket books.... I kid, I kid...
  11. I am considering coming, if I have business in the area that day (i.e. push for that date for meetings/etc..) otherwise it is silly to drive 1.5 hrs for some beer and wings, haha.
  12. I imagine you would protest if a franchise/large establishment was chosen to meet up? Being that a place like that would be popular and successful, most assuredly you would bitch about how horrible it is....

  14. Make sure you pick a bar with Wifi, so I can telecommunicate.
  15. Yes he did... who prepared the playbook for hte week?
  16. Childress may have been a quasi-failure as a head coach, but he has been a very proven OC.. soo... I dont see why the bitching about hte picK?
  17. No, he did not. Mr. Gullible Nincompoop ^That was the very next "related" link in the video you posted... research harder next time.
  18. No he did not dummy. That is not physically possible, if you know anything about a jet engine's cross section, especially on one the size in that situation (low bypass, i.e. no fan). That DID happen, but in that case what happened was his helmet saved him... it was sucked off his head, and destroyed all hte blades before he could get to them. so the helmet took the damage, and he was just stuck in the inlet. In this case, you have a much larger engine (though still small on the relative scale) with a high bypass fan, so even if hte helmet came off, all those titanium blades would have to be destroyed before he would have been okay, not ot mention get there first... Regarding hte engine that sucked the mechanic in... Here is some scary perspective: When the starter air valve gets stuck, a mechanic has to open it manually to start the engines (meaning he is right next to the engine) via putting a long drive into a hole and turning 90 degrees. From the mechanic a spoke to once, when you do this, you can see hte gravel on the ground in front of the engine start to vibrate and lift off the ground. In the case of the guy getting sucked in, the engine must have gone high enough above ground idle to create the thrust to suck him in.
  19. Ummm, welcome to 2006... http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/01/16/airplane.fatality/ BTW, the engine that did the damage is a GE CFM56, designed right here in cincy... (all boeing 737s are GE engines)
  20. Nope, I am 6'4" we actually sized the car you see pictured for me. If I had not been on the team, the car would have been even shorter.... A car's comfort is only as good as you design it. I tried to drive the 2011 car that the team built, and it was horrible. The recline angle was waaaay back, but hte steering wheel was angled to high the other way, making it tough to drive. They didnt design bolsters into the seat, so you slid aroud like crazy. They didnt put anything 'grippy' below the peddle cluster so in high g turns it was hard to keep your feet on teh gas/brake.
