So would a no confidence resolution from the Alumni Board.
Do you think I've ignored you? Do you want to discuss this with me directly? If you want to talk offline send me a DM and I will send you my phone number and we can talk about it.
Naaa I don't have you blocked. Don't think I ever have. I sent you a DM no problem.
I drove by Bob Warn Field on Tuesday. The bleachers on the 3rd base line were still there. I thought maybe we couldn't host the Super Regionals because they were going to need those bleachers somewhere else for Special Olympics, but I guess that wasn't it either.

They told us why they didn’t host… They were tired from MVC and Regionals in back-to-back weekends. And because of Special Olympics and lack of volunteers they didn’t think they could logistically pull it off.
It wasn’t hotel capacity. It wasn’t seating capacity. It wasn’t Special Olympics.
It was - we can’t…

The real impact would be if you could get both the alumni board AND faculty senate to bind together. Is there any interaction between the two bodies?
Run off? When any of my friends run their pie holes using "we, us, etc" when they're "living vicariously through their beloved Cardinals/Reds/Cubs/Astros/Titans, etc" I give them a hard time as well. If SSoM wants to ramble about his running days for the Trees, so be it - he ran for the Trees.
How many other have suited up for the Trees? Damn few on this board.
And he DOES cheer for other college teams - he's OPENLY cheered the move of ISU-E joining the OVC, he's OPENLY advocated on COUNTLESS occasions his love of the OVC, how the Trees are in DESPERATE need to MOVE to the OVC and how much he loves him some EIU Panthers, so, he sounds quite like so many other "hometown" fans.

Alumni Assoc and the Faculty Senate? Highly doubtful -- I don't think the three main "donor/support - leadership groups (Alumni Association, ISU Foundation Board and ISU Varsity Club) collaborate on mainly issues. Hell, add the BoT to that group and I STILL don't think they have active/open, transparent relationships. But they should.

I'm surprised you have any friends if you try to tick them off as much as you do the people on this FAN FORUM.

Why? Not everyone in the world is as thin-skinned as some. I've zero problems with any of my friends backing/following, enjoying watching their favorite teams play BUT when a never-played beyond HS, 35-YO is yammering on how we (meaning he and the Cardinals are gonna DOMINATE the Dodgers in their next series), he's going to get poke in the ribs. And there are topics that they give me grief -- maybe you and your friends simply brush one another's hair and tell each other how pretty and smart they are... whatever, you do you.
If I TRULY wanted to "tick off people" on this board (Fan or otherwise) I'd respond a TON more than I do -- there are PLENTY of posts I simply ignore and there are a handfuls of individuals that I've ignored via Jason's feature. Try it, it works great.
Have a happy weekend

I say we and i dont even like baseball that much. I doubt many ISU fans dont also have another team they root for. If a person likes live sports and lives in TH, EIU isnt that bad of a drive. personall I wouldnt drive across town to watch EIU sports....even when my brother in law was playing. Maybe Id watch if they were playing womens soccer in my back yard.
Edit: They have a beach volleyball team now so maybe Im gonna watch some of those.

A one hour drive to Charleston is nothing compared to the 8-10 hours of driving I do almost every day truck driving. For football it appears that I'm going to be able to make three ISU home games and one EIU home game this upcoming season. For basketball I might make the drive to EIU around three times a season, and then for baseball I rarely ever go over there because I just come home when ISU has a home weekend series. So anymore it's like 5 trips over there max annually.
I've been making the trip over there somewhat consistently for around 10 years now. It's just something to do when ISU isn't around, but when you watch a team for that long you naturally start to become a fan after a while. They're similar to ISU athletically (mid major with FCS football), which is what initially drew my interest. I've never had a job where I was off every weekend or every evening, so it maximizes how many Division 1 games I'm able to attend each year.
