I looked it up on the knower of all things: Wikipedia

The Nittany Lion is the mascot of the Pennsylvania State University in State College, Pennsylvania and its athletic teams. It refers to the mountain lions that once roamed nearby the school, and to Mount Nittany, a local landmark.

nice work Sammy!

Peench will give you 5 bucks at PAX

i tried to set this up earlier and got a message saying the server was busy, so i'll try again later i suppose....

Since it hasn't officially begun yet, would it be too much trouble to switch to a division that has a conference championship...perhaps the Big 12? Schlick and I were discussing the added fun factor....

If not, its cool. Just curious.

Hey!

heck, I'd take Baylor. I'm gonna get colossally creamed anyway, might as well make it real...

[Snake1399]

sorry guys i didnt see the big 12 request until after i started the league. You should all have invites now, so let's fire it up.

if someone wants to start a big 12 league, i'll join up. Gimme Nebraska

Actually, I think a C-USA would be more fun. The teams are more evenly sucky, which is kinda important. They have:

4 teams @ 67 to 69.
4 more teams @ 72.
2 more @ 74.
The last 2 are @ 77, but that's not all that much better. You could put UCF and Rice off limits.

C-USA has a championship game. The other benefit of C-USA would be bowl tie-ins. C-USA has 5 or 6 bowl tie-ins, so we'd be guaranteed bowl games if we finish in the top 6. Bowl games are big for recruiting and upping your stars.

The only trouble with C-USA (or Big 12) is that we'd have to try and have the same number in each conference. Otherwise, you're gonna have some people with more computer games, which are easier to win.

Well I suppose its all moot now since this has begun. I have no way to keep up with three college dynasties and Madden 09!

Let the games begin!

I sent my blanket of coaches and scouts across the country, from sea to shining sea last night. Everyone wants to be a Boilermaker! Maybe everyone just wants a boilermaker--a shot of whisky dropped in a pint of beer and gulped down at one time.

I'm ready for week one games. Stay with me fellas! Let's play!

[Snake1399]

as soon as everyone has finished their pre-season duties i'll advance us to week 1. I believe the first 3 games for everyone are non-conference, so we should be able to buzz thru the first few weeks....

[schlickabod]

I say "let's go!" and then I say:

I'm going to be in Vegas for a second honeymoon from Thursday through Sunday. If we can get week one started tonight, I can get my game and recruiting in. If not, I'll do it Sunday night when I get back.

How typical!!!

[paniro777]

as soon as i get home in about an hour i'll do all my preseason stuff.

[Snake1399]

i think we're just waiting on Seahawks to do his pre-season stuff and then we can get this league going....
