American Football (NFL, College, etc.)

Timmy's going to have to put on some massive yards. He's only thrown for 109 yards so far and it's the third quarter. He also has one INT.

For me, wanting a UH player to break Ty's record is not just because I want the record broken. I want the record broken because the current record holder is a BYU PLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahhhh, yes, that was the first thing I was thinking of when they were a-talkin' 'bout Chang beating the record back when. That is some mighty cheddar.

Remember that when Ty broke set the record back then, that same season UH kicked the living crap out of BYU two years in a row!!!!!!!!!!!! And, by a huge margin, too!!!! :) Before Ty came along, UH was always creamed by BYU. So if the record is broken, I hope Ty realizes not only what team Timmy Chang plays for, but also that Ty's two year reign with the BYU squad never defeated UH. IN YOUR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

True, true. I think I know what you're getting at, groink -- when you think about it, it's like UH caught BYU with that win (caught the Cougar, so to speak?) and kept them suspended in time. Not only did we finally beat a team that was seemingly unbeatable to us, but, we're now TAKING the QB record set at that time as well.

It's kinda' like we have that BYU team suspended much like how General Zod, Non, and Ursa are fated to be perennially stranded.

Yeah. Well, you'd've thunkededed he'd have done it with one game, with only two hundred some odd yardages to go. But, admittedly, that's still kind of a lot for any QB. Besides, I'd be lying if I said the record SHOULDn't be broken here at home, which'd mean I'd just HAVE to go to the game to join the chums, catching them off guard in the process among their "hoah, wow, you really going to th' game, d'en?" pronouncements.

Ah. Ah Vertigo title reference. Nice, thetenken.

Two different DC comics properties cited in the same thread concerning UH football? Say it isn't so :hehe: .

UPDATE: as of this writing, it's 62-3 (yes, 62-3) in favor of Boise State. Hahah, theyy weren't kiddin' 'bout Boise St.'s coach penchant for running up the score. Like I said, will pounce on my beloved Warriors.

Looks like Timmy finished just short. He threw for 229 yards (good) but threw 3 INT's (supremely bad).

Edit: woops, he threw 4 INT's (even worse).

Uh, lemme one up you, here, thetenken -- the ENTIRE FRIGGIN' GAME was "supremely bad" for the Warriors, hehheheh.

Three positives, however, come out of this:

1) Chang gets to break the record where he's SUPPOSED to break the record -- right here in the Aloha state, Hawaii, at the 11/06/04 game against Louisiana Tech', to receive all the fanfare and accolades he, quite honestly, deserves for breaking the record. Heck, they can even stop the game for recognition purposes, methinks; can't do that on the road. Heck, when you think about it, if there's ever a good reason for a team to lose a game, THIS WAS IT. A disastrous loss :beaten: from an obvious point-of-view, but, how else would Chang've had the opportunity to break the record in front of the home crowd if he threw, oh, one or two touchdowns in this game. Hahhhh? Haaaaahhh? Makes sense alla' sudden, eh? Hahha.

2) Chang's gonna make the record in a week where the subject of "individual wins" is quite significant. Yessiree.

3) What the . . .? Hey! HEYYY!!!! This thread gets to exist and be bumped for an entire week. :say_yes:

Admittedly, his INT records are a problem and, this is his senior year. If the guy plans to get to that Notable Financial Level, he basically needs to start eliminating "interceptions" from his vocabularly, too, methinks.

Man. What a mess the game itself was. I think that was the highest score from any team this season, no?

Still full from lunch (see "food, food, food" thread for more details if you care, LIKE you care, hahah) gotta meet the fellas at the film festival. Ya'll have a nice weekend, and, especially, a SAFE Halloween.

Sounds like you're spin doctoring after the 69-3 drubbing by Boise State.

Yeah. I didn't leave the house for the film festival yet :beaten: .

"Lemme show you how objective The Man is about his alma mater's football team -- if they go 0-12 again (and, yes, before Coach June Jones arrived, the UH football team DID go 0-12), I think serious considerations should be made as to whether the program should be ended."

isn't objective enough.

As much as I like UH, they got DIRTY LICKIN'S last night.
Shame, shame, shame.

Ohohohohohohohohohohho, I haven't seen lickin's like that since my dad licked me back when I was a kid. :hehe:

Jeez. Just playing. :rolleyes:

Not like I was an abused child or anything.....

Hey I have a question. Is that one wide receiver on the Broncos, I think his name is like Ashley Leile or something a former Warriors? My friend in my math class is from Hawaii and he's a big Warriors fan too and he was telling me one day that there was this really good WR that played for the Warriors before and made it pro and is with the Broncos. He forgot the name though.

Yep, he's from UH, originally from Bellflower, CA:

having a pretty good year too :hehe:

It could be over:

Pats trailing the Steelers 34-20 with 2:00 left in the 4th quarter... :hehe: :hehe:




Raiders get schooled again, 42-14, by the Chargers. :hehe: :hehe:

Man too much Drue Brees today. *sigh*

Those 49ers better score a lot of points on the Bears tonight cause my opponent has Bears defense and this week is a must win for me. Last time someone had a def against those 49ers was the Seahawk that shut them out -_- If those 49ers don't score big I'm gonna get so pissed!

It's over: Steelers beat the Patriots, 34-20.... :applaud: :D :woot:

see, didn't I say the Steelers were gonna beat the Pats?!?!? DIDN'T I?!? and didn't I say I was gonna lose to Stephen Cortez... ... . .. . .. ...

Looks like Kerry is going to win the election with the defeat of the Skins today...

Giants are looking better...I'll attribute their loss last week to bye week laziness. Chicago should be an easy opponent next week.

Game of Next Week: Blitzburgh vs. Eagles

Dude Manning tore it up today! 5 TDs and 400+ yards! That and Rod Smith had a TD and 200yd receiving and Barber, well Barber has been Barber just about every week. I think my team takes another big victory in jdorama league :D

Btw impression, is Jamal Lewis up for trade in the Math 104 league? Let me know if we can come up with some sort of package deal. Everyone on my team is up for trade except for LT.

never!!! he is my lone champion in that league...haha
sure, im on a massive tumbling streak...but never!!!

Oh, I didn't know there was a jdorama league. Damn, you should have told me...
