See Crukid...

1.) you are a pretty big person for being able to get on here and talk crap...man I hand it to you...you are starting to prove that you are no better than the fools that gave HSU a bad wrap.

2.) I never said that YOU were attacking...rather in particular...its a pointless argument

3.) Been in the stands and on the field many of times to know first hand the life of a soccer player...

4.) A pointless argument that everyone who was at the game is well aware of. UMHB won the game today...and yes you could probably post all night on here about how Jordy ran for his life...and that would be great to read but we already watched it happen.

UMHB won...they are a better football team...and until we(HSU) prove that or anyone else for that matter they are still the better team...

5.) the bathroom stalls are quite nice at the local popeyes

I apologize for "bashing" all of HSU. This wasn't just a one time experience. The same happened last November and in 2003. I am starting to think that it isn't just a few jerks. It's a shame when young ladies get disrespected anywhere. Especially at a football game between two "Baptist" Universities. I guess it wasn't your female companion that was disrespected, therefore you don't understand how I feel. Anyways, I think that UMHB needs to win out then they can worry about the playoffs. ETBU, McMurry and AC still stand between you and the playoffs. Yall go to work tomorrow, but celebrate tonight.  Go Cru!!!!!

crualum04...good point and yes that is horrible...and I would be pissed as well if i were in your shoes...I wish I could assure you it wouldnt happen again...

hm, I was speaking to one situation about one certain person, and I said "that doesn't speak well for an HSU diploma"....didn't realize that would get erased by moderators, for those of you who missed it's five minute life span. We spend hundreds of posts talking about astros, whether or not the coaches are running up the score, the official points of who and when and where you are allowed to hit trash barrels, of if you're allowed to hit trash barrels. I however am not allowed to speak about things that happen at the football game.

Crukid, if you think the crack about the diploma was what got it pulled, you're mistaken. It was ... well, the unsubstantiated allegations in the entire rest of the post.

Plus, you misspelled the word "grammar" in the sentence about your feelings of the value of the diploma. Was trying to save you the embarrassment.

i'm still looking for where my discussion of the experience turned into "talking crap"...if I had wanted to do that I could've stood there in my end of the endzone and conversed with the guys next to me yelling obscenities and belittling my mother because I showed up to cheer for my team, the same folks who were more than happy to point out to me personally that they had acheived a first down with 6 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter of a blow-out...crualum discusses his experience and gets "good points" and apologies...i'm a crap talker, maybe it's the word kid in my screen name. I should change it to cruelderlygentlemen.

Pat...that was awesome.

best of luck the rest of the season cruKID.

My thoughts on the HSU/UMHB:

UMHB's defense was really good.  like another poster stated the coaching staff blitzed at the right times with the right players.  HSU has a great bunch of receivers.  However the qb couldn't get the ball to them as he was running for his life.  He also held the ball too long and took sacks when he could have thrown the ball away.  I'm sure he just didn't want to chance an interception.  Nevertheless UMHB's defense looked great.  

UMHB's offense also looked very good.  However in defense of HSU's defense, UMHB started half of their drives inside HSU territory.  This was due to several factors.  1) penalties, 2) loss of field position by HSU due to the sacks 3) great and I mean great punt coverage by UMHB.  Special teams were awesome by the CRu.  Held our guys all day save one great return by May that was called back (penalty).

UMHB looked like a championship team today.  HSU was dominated, no question about it.

The good news.  HSU still has a chance to win the conference and make the playoffs. So we have to shake this off and not take anything for granted.

On a side note:  before the game I grilled with Minni and had a great time visiting with the HSU students.  Thanks for the use of the Grill!!!

It will be interesting to see what adjustments the coaching staff makes after a performance like that. I mean in his defense this was his first "big game" as the starter but thats all that is left..."big games"...HSU from here on out has to step up and find a way to win...at this point in the year there are no second chances.

Thanks Pat, that would have been embarassing. Apparantly my Texas drawl has a way of sneaking into my writing, if I grew up in the North I would know that's an a and not an e in grammar. If my allegations are unsubstantiated you can go talk with Officer White about the whole incident but one of my roommates had to give a written report on the incident (causing us to remain another half an hour before we could leave) and another has to go back to Abilene to testify in court. I can promise you I told no lies.

Interesting reading the discussion about bad behavior at the UMHB-HSU game.  As Ralph Turner pointed out earlier here, from the radio coverage of the McM-SRSU game, it sounds like that match ended in a near riot.  Was anyone actually there who can explain what happened?  The McM radio announcers said that as soon as the game was over, the SRSU coaches ordered their players into the locker room; they were afraid that if they returned to the field to shake hands with McM, the usual post-game courtesy, they would start another brawl.  Compared to this, what happened at HSU sounds like small potatoes.

Crukid,

All may be true, but Pat really can't allow that on the board.  Unitl something is ruled on, it's just an allegation.

The punting game for UMHB was huge.  Time after time they got off great kicks that kept HSU from getting good field position.  An outstanding performance.  I still can't get over how the UMHB defense swarmed HSU all day long.  The speed difference was really surprising.

on a happier note, congrats to Dallas Huston on winning this award.  He's been the voice of HPU and Brownwood sports for a long time.  He's a great radio announcer, great person and a great Christian man.

dballa, I saw your quote at the bottom of your post.  I prefer to think of 4 seasons relating to football:  Preseason, Regular Season, Post Season and Off season.
