Iowa State-SDSU game cancelled
- Thread starter rainydayhawk
- Start date
I do not care what that thread was about, that is a cool story donkey. That literally has no barring on this thread. Are you that demented?
The appropriate move would be to let them run out and play for the first however many minutes yesterday's game lasted, then bench them for the rest of it.
You tried champ, keep your chin up. You weren’t even able to piece together what we were talking about, but you tried. And that’s all that matters bud.
You are cool, I promise.
I can go find about 20 threads that he posted on the Off topic board that were ridiculous, but I don't care, I'm not a child like you.
No man, you’ve just replied 30 times to me instead. Really showing that maturity. Well done.
Yeah because you embarrassed yourself. I wanted to continue it to show what a idiot you are.

The Gazette ran a three-part series about a player. I asked why. Nobody was able to answer. It wasn't a big deal.
To NorthDSMHawk it sure was.... Not that it had any barring on this thread but to him it sure did.
They go through their scripted plays so they'll walk into Kinnick and win? Okay.
Disagree. It gets to a point where both teams are too tired from waiting + awful field conditions from the rain that it becomes dangerous.
Thanks. I would not interpret that to mean we'll get a refund if a 12th game isn't added. I would think it's more likely he meant that those who had a ticket to yesterday's game won't have to pay to see the new one. That would be a little complicated, but not terribly..They could issue tickets to season ticket holders, of course, and to anybody else who saved their ticket.
But who knows?
I think he had too much coffee this morning. He just posted my original post in that thread, which backs up what I remembered about it.
That is not accurate. Several people answered. Obviously not to your satisfaction. Some answers were well thought out and made sense, some were ridiculous. To claim otherwise is not accurate.
So almost being punished as much as they originally were to punished is justifiable. Interesting.
I am happy they are playing as don't want the excuses. Although already hearing about how they didn't play the game so advantage Hawks. BTW, if we have an advantage cause ISU didn't play a game, then how did the ISU players serve a 1 "game" suspension? Also, not sure what idiot said it, but somebody said the players were only suspended for the "SDSU game" so it was served. Um, everything I saw was a "1 game suspension" with no opponent designated. No game was played. And let's not kid ourselves. If it was Akron or Kansas this weekend, the suspensions would be served this week. Period.
And they could care about as much as the folks at OSU or MSU. "Just Win Baby", or at least try, is the new reality in college athletics....
You say that with confidence, but I'm not too sure thats how KF would handle it. Don't know, don't really care either, just sayin.........
‘Bearing’; the word you are looking for is ‘bearing’.
Good thing pollard isn’t the commissioner of MLB. Player gets a 5 game suspension but only misses 4 because of a rain out one night. Or let’s say UNC had their game cancelled this week. Do you think the players with the 4 game suspensions would still be at 4 or dropped to 3 by NCAA, doubtful they’d get a game knocked off.
Honestly after how they handled the CB Peavy being arrested last season on a Thursday night for vandalism and running for the cops and letting him play 36 hrs later at kstate I’m not surprised at all by this decision.

I should have been clearer just now. Several people explained why the situation was worth a story, and I agree. My surprise -- and what prompted my question -- was that a three-part series is a pretty BFD in newspapers, especially these days with space at a premium. I could understand why the situation merited a nice feature story, but thought maybe there was a reason with which I was unfamiliar that convinced the Gaz folks it was worth a three-parter. I never dissed the kid.
I should simply have asked Marc. Had no idea it would raise such a kerfuffle here.
My question is if it was a high school student who did something wrong (caught drinking or smoking) and was suspended by the state high school league or if an NFL player was suspended by the NFL for the substance abuse would they consider this as one of their games suspended. I don't think they would but I could be wrong. I know it is not 100 percent the same just looking at how sanctioning bodies like the NFL or a state high school League would handle
