Poland players never pan out anyway.  They all quit when the going gets tough.  Look at the track record of thier FB players over the last 10 years.

Where did this come from?

Maybe it is time for this thread to just go away

YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: Question about WATTS center

« on: July 17, 2011, 10:42:32 PM »

For those of you with access to the athletic department, has any tentative date been established for an "open house" for the WATTS center, once it (finally) is completed?

Come on, they have to be close, any word yet on an open house?

The Lake Club is a golf course over in Butler County PA. We really cannot delete a post that we do not like. I do not know anything of this though. You are right, it does seem "fishy".

1AA - the lake club is located on south ave extension south of western reserve road. Owned by Muransky I believe.

Regardless, would be nice to know if this is true or not, but nice of the board to be open minded enough to let it ride for now.

So sad. Pete was a very good friend to this site as well. He wrote articles the first two years, probably back around 1990. Huge loss for everyone. What happened IP, the Vindy's on-line edition is down right now?

1AA--his cancer he had beaten a few years back came back with a vengeance. He went to the hospital about a month ago and died there today. It's a very sad day, indeed.

Sad to hear, prayers to the family.

It blows my mind that we can put a man on the moon but we can't beat the big C.

It's noteworthy because YSU is mentioned, some people may care some may not, either is fine.

I just celebrated the 24th anniversary of my 39th birthday.

Interesting, I just had had my 19th so we are rather close. I do see where we have some common ground in our thinking

Hummmm, some your last post is scary, let's just say that we look at things differently.

Just for grins, may I ask about how old you are? 20's 30's -----60's 70's 80's?

Any leader, Democrat or Republican, who promotes the outsourcing of jobs is a traitor to the United States of America.

You are 100% correct.

Miami cornerback headed to YSU

YOUNGSTOWN

Former University of Miami cornerback Devont’a Davis will transfer to the Youngstown State football team, according to the St. Petersburg Times.

Davis, who did not return calls seeking comment, redshirted last season with the Hurricanes and will have four years of eligibility remaining. Miami fired head coach Randy Shannon in November and hired Al Golden in December.

pen4life,

Excellent historical analysis.  I would just add that these new Robber Barons today are unpatriotic egotists who destroy the fabric of American society by outsourcing good jobs and thus further reducing the middle class.

Darn that Clinton for signing NAFTA into law!

Pen4ife - I actually agree with some of what you say, one of things that you are missing is that both parties are putting to us. You mention the Koch brothers, ever heard of a guy named George Soros and his buying of Democrats - nuff said!

Politicians  - all politicians - have one thing in mind, getting and staying in power, it is as simple as that. Each side figures out what our fears are and then they play to them. Yea, they just love it when we get caught up in this little R verses D stuff, keeps us busy and they laugh and laugh. Sure there is a good politician now and then but we both know that they will not go far until they buy into the plan.

For what it is worth, I am not a member of the capitalist elite, no desire to be. No desire to die rich, I spend more time trying to be a good father and husband. Those are the right priorities for me. I can tell you that I have never been employed by a poor man. Like it or not we need rich people.

The trick for our government is to not swing too far in either direction, left or right. Too big is as bad as too small ( I do tend to lean to smaller ). At this time we are getting too big, can't be everything to everyone, heck we just can not afford it.

I'm a yellow dog Democrat (i.e. if the party ran a yellow dog, he (or she) would get my vote. I rest my case - truly amazing The Republican party of today is rapidly becoming the enemy of the middle class, the poor, the elderly, anyone outside of the well heeled upper crust. Sounds like you have bought into that class envy thing This republican love fest is bizarre. guinpen and hlector, get a room. Get a room, heck I don't even know hlecter!

Lecter you will love this!

Bob Schieffer actually does a nice job in this clip, asks some tuff questions, but of course Mrs Pelosi shows us all what is wrong with politics today. Blames Bush for the debt, blames the R's for nothing getting done this year, says we need to "work together", funny where was that thinking when the D's were in total charge? I really like the segment that starts about the 2:54 mark. Bob quotes Nancy on her quotes from 2005 when she said that Bush was to blame for high unemployment and gas prices, then Bob asks her if the same should apply to BO since gas prices and unemployment are higher now. Of course her answer was why worry about the past.

What a hoot!
