WBB - Education Day - We Want 104 Back

Probably easier to keep all the students in one group rather than break them up in two different sections.

AD also figured it wouldn’t be a big deal for our awesome student body to move over one freaking section for a noon women’s game.

Also: #keepthreadaliveFOREVER

The 49ers are expecting [b]6,500[/b] kids from 39 area schools for their fifth annual Education Day game.

The bigger issue here is that our women’s game will have higher attendance than our men’s game tonight.

Sounds like a good event and a good way to get out into the community.

[font=comic sans ms]I think the bigger issue at hand is whether security is in place to keep 2k out of the arena.[/font]

The university probably worked with his company to fly him out to Chicago this week to avoid any possible incidents.

[font=trebuchet ms]Probably the least Mickey Mouse thing our AD has ever done, but they did stay true to their STEALTHATHLETICDEPT ways.[/font]

[font=trebuchet ms]Good move, AD, good move![/font]

…and bingo was his name-o.

That’s the gripe. Nothing more.

I see a lot of people trying to make this into a muuuuch bigger thing than it really is. Who’s petty now?

I think 104’ers will try to beat up the 104 wannabes. I believe extra security will be needed.

I may even head to campus to witness the angry mob in action. I envision a scene similar to this:

Oh, come on Gill. Really?

You know there are waaaaaay too many slim, fit individuals in that image for either side to be 104.

You’re right Lew. They are doing this to give the seats in 104 a rest.

Well, when you look at it that way… not such a bad idea.

FWIW, I’m taking control of my weight… started working out last week.

I already feel much better throughout a day. Why did I wait this long?

Right. Its clearly us.

Not the ones who started a twitter campaign to keep the AD from allowing poor grade school kids from being able to watch 1 womans basketball game at noon from the best seats in the house, all the while claiming to be the victim of some “slap in the face”.

Being upset at the AD over this is laughable. I’m sure when the AD sat down to organize this event with CMS, the last thing they thought was some “superfans” would find offence to having their free seats moved over 1 section to allow kids to watch a game. If we are blaming the ad for anything, its for underestimating the ability of college kids to piss and moan.

Dude, the issue is over. Stop dragging it on.

They are going to sell a truckload of Dip’N Dots today.

You Sir have good taste. I am surprised.

Anyways, I second this motion.

OK I wasn’t going to say anything in this thread - but I have to now. Cass the AD should have had enough vision to think this through in a manner that would have avoided all this. Either through working with NinerNation Gold to let them know what was happening in 104 being given away and why or by thinking that 104 is sacred ground for our students section and working around that. It isn’t the action that is poor it is their though process and steps they could have taken to negate this whole fiasco. The fact taht we have a thread on this means that communication that should have happened didn’t.

Sounds like they did communicate to you that you were going to have to move. You just don’t like it. I guess all those entitlement issues aren’t confined just to the occupy folks.

Or the student body should just get over it and feel lucky they haven’t been moved out of 104 fulltime like they should be.

Obviously the AD did communicate ahead of time, we’re talking about it right now. I don’t always side with the AD, but I am here.

Like 6500 kids could consume more Dippin’ Dots than our student section.
