Battle for the Millard Tydings Bridge

[bandl]

Ann, I just got a text from my Tovson alum workout buddy asking me if I wanted to go to the game.

He knows too.

Yep...no one wants to go and he can't get rid of his tickets. I told him to GFH, I have better things to do with my time.

[State Line Liquors]

I'm taking bets.

Name your bet. Moneyline or point spread?

[T-Dog]

I'm calling the upset!

UD 24
Towson State 14

Townson beats the point spread!

Andy, I may have the name of the bar wrong...what was the name of the place the football team used to drink at on Saturday nights, had a lot of fights there, dance floor in the back, that closed down probably around the time or shortly after you graduated??

You coming up tomorrow to witness the carnage?

[SunCoastBlueHen]

TU normally has some pretty cute cheerleaders and dance team...

Towson does have that going for it...

As a consolation to Andy, here is one of my favorite Towson alums.

Cafe Med/Kelly's
We used call it the playpen. That place was totally out of control. I used to bounce there. We used to plow fights out into the back alley and shut the door.

It's a Melting Pot fondue place now. It's just not right.

No we are having a family party for my two daughters birthdays(both in October). I'll be listening on the radio in the kitchen, drinking, and more than likely pissed off.



Avatar bets only. I'm willing to endure a week with a chicken for the 1% chance all you F'ers sporting black and gold.

As far as hot chicks are concerned, Towson is a perennial top 3 team and consistantly receiving votes on the FBS level. Believe that.

[bluehenbillk]

Cafe Med!!! That's the place. The 2 times I went there I saw a total of 5 altercations, hot girls and hotter tempers. Dumbasses taking on 50 football players.

Not that it matters much, but here is the betting advice of the year. TU's QB is suspended indefinitely, the offshore line is still sitting at 23, grab it quick, call your mortgage company and obtain your payoff amount and put it down baby, the Hens cover the number before the half.

Well at least it was a good, competitive game.

Yeah the Towson dance girls with the white ribbons on top of their heads kept it close with the UD Dance team.

[bluehenbillk]

Oh my. Worst Towson team in over 25 years. UD could have scored 70 today. Andy, what the hell??

[State Line Liquors]

Was anybody aware that Millard Tydings' middle name was 'Evelyn'??

As far as the 'battle' was concerned, I think we should probably just loosely refer to what took place Saturday afternoon as a skirmish that ended with a very peaceful surrender.

Ambrose has a bit more work to do than I realized.

[andy7171]

Had I know Chris Hart was going to be out, I would have never run my mouth.



This team without him is sadly young. 3 RS freshman and one true soph on the starting line. The go to WR is a true soph. The kid from THE Citadel is woefully under prepared having missed the entire summer and taking 20% of the snaps until Friday afternoon.

Seeing progress being made in Rhode Island is depressing, but truthfully, this is Ambrose's first recruiting class with Gordy being fired late January of '08. I wrote this season off before it started, but expected to be in games. Getting blown out to Indiana, Villanova and Delaware is to be expected, Losing to JMU and Umass by a combined 17 points shows progress. Losing to Columbia makes me suicial. I think this ship is still on track.

Sadly, Chris Hart let this team down this weekend. Good news is that Peter Athens gets his redshirt that he lost last season.

I still have hope, but I was apart of the last Towson 1-10 season in 1991. This sucks just as much.

I'll change my avatar at work tomorrow.

Hi kids. Can you spot how many excuses Andy7171 made in that post? If you said 5, you're right! Congratulations! I knew you could do it!!!

F you guys.

Could you at least change it to a DELAWARE avatar? What's with the Michigan helmet?

[andy7171]

what's the difference?

[89Hen]

what's the difference?

It's a Michigan helmet and you lost to Delaware. That's the difference.

[blukeys]

Well at least it was a good, competitive game.

It wasn't as close as the score might indicate.
