You ever feel like there were 180 guys wearing various shades of red rooting for one of these bets to actually go through?  I have this feeling we have several RPI and Union players witnessing the more mature alumni making asses out of themselves.  Ain't America great?

That's the point. Gro wants to enjoy the game, see the fam, see the friends and and get "sofa king we tar did". Chances of gro making an ass out of himself without any bets... 65%. Don't need to end up in a dress and makeup.

Gro, Reg and the rest:

BC08 is making the 45-minute trek to Troy for the game this Saturday, and as BC08 is not that familiar with the setup, he would like to see when and where you guys are tailgating. He's also writing a story for the newspaper about the atmosphere of my first Shoes contest.

Thanks for the help, either on the board or PM me. Thanks.

Actually, for the story I would use your names, so if you guys want to talk for the story, tell me in a PM. Thanks.

Bud,

Welcome to 'Shoozapalooza'....it may not be the 10,000+ person extravaganza this year that the Cortaca game should be but it will be a good time, nonetheless. Last year, there were about 7000-8000 people but the implications were the LL title and an NCAA playoff berth. Since that isn't on the line in 2006, RT fears it will impact the attendance...how much so, we'll have to see.

Festivities will commence at 9am in the North Lot on the campus. Basic directions: either off I-787 or I-87, get to Rt.7 east. This will turn into Hoosick St. once you get into Troy. Turn right on 15th Street. You'll get to an intersection of 15th and Peoples Ave....turn right on Peoples (if you turn left, it will put you at the hockey rink). You'll see an old fire house then the Alumni House on the left. Right after Alumni House is an entrance to North Lot. Turn left into lot then immediately on your right (where the grass ends and the lot begins), you'll see a group of people. That's the RPI FB alumni assn....we'll have a a couple of pop up tailgate tents.

Advance forecast for Sat...55 degrees, cloudy, 10% chance of precipitation.

INJURY UPDATE FROM SCHENECTADY

The word in todays Schenectady Gazette is that TA will be ready to go on Saturday in the Battle for the SHOES.

On the other hand, unbeknownst to most fans, Coach Paterno was not the only big name coach to be injured on the sidelines on Saturday.  According to the Gazette, during the Gatorade shower celebrating Union's victory over Hobart, Coach Audino suffered a "mild concussion".

Celebrating a big victory with a bare forehead to helmut hit is not necessarilly a good idea.

Which reminds me of a story.  Many years ago, I coached DE's and OLB"S.  I was running one-on-one drills during spring practice.  I was one of those coaches who really liked to get on top of the action, and on this particular day, I got a little too close and one of my players helmuts hit me in the mouth.  Something in my mouth felt like loose sand so I spit it out.  The player who hit me looked horrified and advised me that I just spit out my front tooth.  I took my hat off and smacked him in the head, yelled at everybody to get back to work.  For the rest of the day, the DE's and OLB's were like wild men.  It was the best practice I ever coached.  Unfortunately, after spitting out a tooth, it was really hard to come up with a better way to motivate the guys during practice.

various media outlets have already contacted gro for interviews this weekend including the times union, troy record, schenectady (daily) gazette, cat fancy, ESPN the magazine, guns and ammo, and Oprah's magazine.... but gro will find the time to answer any and all questions thrown his way.

Please contact my agent, Regulator, for all interview requests.

That is hilarious!!!!

Word on the street is that Audino has already fabricated a news story, supposedly published in the times union that his concussion was a result of a mechanical airplane going off of its scheduled flight path, created by an RPI student, paid for in full, by Coach King, to take out Coach Audino, and place him on the injury report for the battle of the shoes.  All reports received thus far was that this was a well thought out plan, and that the Union players are taking extra HGH in preparation for a post game man azz slapping and hugging extravaganza, which many pictures shall be taken and be posted to the union football website. 

Coach King is yet to respond on these allegations.

RT and I will be doing a live pregame broadcast from there starting at 12:15pm - When are you arriving BC?

Tank, so then to satisfy your need for a bet why don't you challenge RT to an arm wrestling contest to start the broadcast or since you two seem to share some mutual affection with each other a tickling contest might be better suited.

RT gives props to the Tank for helping to launch RT's local radio career in college FB. He also gives the Guru props for helping to parlay that into a national gig. 

AJ...don't hate, appreciate. RT will will take on all comers this Sat in feats of man strength. Make sure AJ brings his A game in baggo. We know you are an "A-player" in tea-baggo ....

[mattvsmith]

how's this for a wager... loser has to do the chicken noodle soup dance on the 50 yard line...

The Rev used to dance like that in high school in the hallway at school without the benefit of music.

But The Rev didn't end up on TV...just in the detention room.

p.s. anyone who watched the Broncos/Steelers game on sunday, this was the dance Javon Walker did on one of his TD's... in case you were wondering if he was having a seizure.

Normally, I'm well-paid for my choreography routines, but I'm willing to make an exception.  Fill in the details -- where, when, etc.

'Gro,
If you want to do a LLFF trade, you must make the proposal because Garnet has no idea what he is doing. Garnet will accept the trade.
