Detroit in December.

Did it four times when I covered Marshall. Lost to Ole Miss, beat U of L, beat UC, beat BYU.

Herd and Bobcats should be an interesting game. Huntington and Athens are 90 minutes apart. Can’t we just meet in Gallipolis and play?

Gallipolis?

frankly, i’d rather go to Detroit.

Heck, even Portsmouth is better than Gallia county.

Home of Reds' scout Gene Bennett.

That might work. How about Proctorville? Former Red Rick Reed lives there.

A tremendously nice guy.

Rick and his wife are very generous, involved in the community and are quite humble.

you'll appreciate this

the only reason I remember that Rick Reed was a scab was because of APBA. They didn’t list his real name on the card because he wasn’t a member of the MLBPA.

I had forgotten that.

I love APBA to this day. Fantastic game. I had one of the worst expansion teams ever. Kirk McCaskill was the ace of my staff.

aww

my knees are buckling reading this.

It says a lot about my family when I explain to people that the Field of Dreams bit with Costner and his dad playing catch most reminds me of me and my dad playing APBA

Yeah, but in 25 years

So, does taking Florida and giving the Gators

33 confidence points make me have no balls or ballsy?

Also, Dan LeFevour FTW!

Eighty-five percent of the f*ckin' world is working. The other fifteen percent come out here. A f*ckin' playground for the cocks*ckers.

I'd argue both

No balls for picking Florida, but ballsy for assigning that many confidence points.

Even though Florida is heavily favored, that’s not the slam dunk to assign big confidence points.

by Highlifeman21 on Dec 14, 2009 10:28 PM EST up reply actions  

I've seen UC's defense

If this thing goes into a shootout I see Florida making a stop way before Cincy does.

You know i always pick the game by which team has the more interesting mascot

So its taken a while but I’m good to go.
