Has-Been, I don't think any amount of Mexican dream blossoms can induce such euphoria as to think there will be a DC comeback this year.

On the bright side, good defensive effort by DC. Line was solid yesterday and the linebackers and backs were kicking a$$ and taking names. They kept Adrian from  running up the score on D. Trashed them in the red zone several times when it looked like a done deal. The Supan kid looks like he has the potential to be a serious interceptor threat. He was everywhere yesterday.

Still no juice on the O-line. They need to start smashing some mouths and kicking some tails upfield instead of being in a defensive mode all the time.

Gotta have some offense to go along with that D. Same as it ever was.

It looks like the Hanover-Butler game has been cancelled.  Send your thoughts to the residents of Hanover:

Butler Football Game With Hanover Cancelled
The Butler-Hanover football game scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 20, at the Butler Bowl has been cancelled due to significant storm damage that has impacted the Hanover community. The game will not be rescheduled this season.

Butler Director of Athletics Barry Collier spoke with Hanover Athletic Director Lynn Hall on Monday (Sept. 15) morning regarding the situation at the southeastern Indiana college and this weekend's football game.

"The Hanover area was hit by heavy storms that moved through Indiana on Sunday (Sept. 14), and Hanover College is currently without power and water," said Collier.

"Classes and extracurricular activities at Hanover have been cancelled, while they work to restore power and water, and the college will be closed until Sunday (Sept. 21). Right now, our thoughts are with Hanover, and we've offered to assist in any way that we can."

Butler season ticket holders may exchange their Hanover tickets for an equivalent number of tickets to any of the Bulldogs' remaining home contests, or seek a refund. Fans holding season parking passes may seek a prorated refund for the Hanover game. For further ticket exchange/refund information, contact Matt Harris at the Butler Ticket Office at (317) 940-9390.

i got lucky and got my power bac at 730am on Monday.  my Pops is one of the lead engineers for Dayton Power and LIght and he said it is a mess and he has seen nothing like this in 40+yrs working there.  what makes it worse is all of the contract crews they use to fix down power lines had already left to Texas to work on the hurricane so they dont have near the folks they would have in the winter when an ice storm would roll through.

I was one of the lucky few to not lose power at all.   But I have to deal with the idiots in Clermont County that don't know proper etiquette at the stoplights in these situations... 

If I ever get ballsy enough, I might get a new Beamer by pulling out in front of one of these 'necks.

Our power at home went out Sunday around 2:30pm and came back on Monday at 3:00pm and then went back off at 9:pm Monday night.

Fortunately I kept the generator after the power came back on and hook it back up to the refrigerator and TV. We have a gas stove so cooking is not a problem.

This is the worst damage I have seen down here in Louisville and that is including when the tornado came through here back in 1973. They are saying it will be 10 - 14 days before LG&E restores all power to the customers. Just like with Dayton Power & Light, LG&E had sent some of their conttractors down to Texas also. They are supposed to be back today which will bring them back to about 1100 workers trying to restore the power. At this time there is still around 160,000 customers without power.

Hopefully our power comes back soon, I am supposed to be flying to Orlando on Thursday for a softball tournament.

Hey SaintsFan, have you ever played against either Blue Collar or Renegades in softball up around your way?

Better get off the internet here at work and do something constructive.

Sorry to hear about the power problems fellas.  Hope everything is back to normal as soon as possible for you all.

In regards to the Hanover game, that really stinks for both squads.  That most likely took away Butler's final win for the season.

Shouldn't you be in class, Has_Been?   

[dc_has_been]

Shouldn't you be in class, Has_Been?   

Nope, my new position as PE teacher & Dean of a total of 70+ students gives me a little bit more free time yuck it up w/ you HCAC faithful. 

[SaintsFAN]

grizz,

I've played against both.  I think they both won NIT's this year.  I've got some friends still on both teams.  The Renegades are actually a better team than Blue Collar is this year. 

I forgot that its the week of Worlds in Orlando, FL .  My roommate is leaving for Orlando tomorrow morning.  Thankfully, I'm retired from competitive softball.

[KYGrizzly]

Still no power at the house, but I have seen crews finally working in the area. Street three blocks down had their power restored last night.

SaintsFan, I agree with Renegades being better than Blue Collar. We lost to Blue Collar in the State in extra innings, their catcher really likes to run his mouth. We finished fifth in the Nationals this year. This will probably be my last world I go to, will start playing in more of the 50 and voer tounaments next year if I can still get around. Also, thanks for letting me beat someone in the Pickems last week. I can see why I never can hit a football card.

[SaintsFAN]

Yep...thats Butler, thats part of his game... all he does is run his mouth.

What's happing JacketsFan?  I'm confused by the post???

[70_dc_alum]

Nah, I'm just done with my own kicking of the Defiance College 2008 carcass.  I kind of feel bad saying their QB has a rag arm and lobs the ball. 

Nothing against you...but I think Osama Obama has a better shot in 49 days than DC does against MSJ, FC, RHIT and maybe even Manchester United <did anyone see their score over (The Duke of) Earlham??>

As Chris Tucker said, I don't whether to smile at ya, or kick a field goal at ya (DC).
