wooden oar war - Kimbosucks - 04-17-2013 02:14 PM
I guess for real this is the new name of the spring game.
RE: wooden oar war - Broncobelt - 04-17-2013 02:17 PM
This is getting ridiculous. PJ realizes he is coaching the WMU Broncos and not the GVSU Lakers, Doesn't he?

Man is like Ali, puts so much pressure on himself looking silly that he has to win.

I got an email today from the athletic office with the big announcement. Now I am glad that I have to go out of town this weekend. Someone let me know if the winning team gets little oars like the mini hockey sticks u can buy. Darnell used to do steak and beans right? Whay will pj do? Filet o fish and lobsters?
RE: wooden oar war - Broncobelt - 04-17-2013 10:20 PM
I got the same (or at least a similar) email from the university today.
RE: wooden oar war - Hiller4Hyz09 - 04-18-2013 06:08 AM
Maybe our new mascot could be a sea horse?

I didn't. Guess I've been kicked out of the "family."

Perhaps coach Fleck is planning something Romanesque:

I just dont get it. All this "row the boat wooden oar war" stuff has no relation to the university or this football program. I don't get where he's going with it.

Neither do our uniform colors. But that's whole 'nother thread-argument.
RE: wooden oar war - WheresWaldo42 - 04-18-2013 09:24 AM
Please God Make This Nonsense Stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will someone please tell me that this is a late April Fools joke? The Wooden Oar War? Are you F'n kidding me?
Someone give me a wooden oar and let me go beat some sense into this fool.
Mark my words and remember you heard it hear first. This fall, the team will be wearing the base layer undershirts with oars on the sleeves. And other teams wont have a clue why a BRONCO is wearing oars. And something tells me that PJ is going to bring back helmet stickers and they too will be oars. WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BRONCOS OR HORSES OR ANYTHING!!!!!
Right now the "Grab The Reigns" and "Saddle Up" billboards seem amazing to me, since they actuall make sense with our mascot.

It's almost as if he came up with this "Row the Boat" theme as a motto for another job. But liked it so much he just decided "eh WTH I'll just use it here instead"

I was thinking the same thing. He DID just come to us from the Buccaneers...

Fleck has coached under Jim Tressel, Joe Novak, and Greg Schiano.
I never heard of-can't see any of them doing anything remotely like what he's done here.
Which means it's all him, he's committed to it, so it ain't going away anytime soon.

BINGO!!!!
That is exactly what this is. He opened is mouth (SHOCKER) and out came ROW THE BOAT. And now he is completely committed to it and cant flush it after 4 months. So he and we are stuck with it.
That and I have a feeling he is to blind to the fact that its become a joke rather than a rallying cry.
