RE: ASUN to add Lincoln Memorial ?
Mr. ASUN commissioner,
Listen to my words very carefully. This is with out a doubt one of the worst possible moves that you could make, concerning bringing a new school into the ASUN.
First off, I'm sure that you were mildly impressed with the Tex Turner arena. Sure its a fairly nice arena, seats 5,000 people, but don't let this facade fool you. That arena is overly large for a non-existant fan base. Besides this arena, LMU has nothing, its basically just a cluster of buildings, in a field, in the middle of no where.
If you didn't know, LMU is in a little town called Harrogate TN. This place is in the boone docks, ages from civilization. The town has no infrastructure to speak of, unless you count the Exxon across the street. So mr. commissioner, if you thought that LMU would be a nice place to hold the Asun basketball tournament think other wise; you would have a hell of a time trying to get a hotel seeing as there are only two within a 20 mile radius.
On the topic of LMU fans, there aren't any. No one gives a damn about LMU athletics. Most people don't even know that LMU even exists, let alone plays sports. Keep in mind that not only does LMU not have fans, but they have no chance of ever gaining a fan base considering they are in what is known as big orange country. and believe me claiborne county tn is big orange country. I might also add that LMU sit in between two of the poorest counties in the country. So if your hopeing that LMU will boost ASUN attendance numbers, wrong, poor people don't buy tickets to college sporting events. "Its a fact"
Also you may be thinking to yourself, wow, LMU has opened a brand new medical school, thats cool. Well, no thats not cool. Osteopathic medicine is the biggest sham in the medical world. (just in case you didn't know osteopathic doctors practice a sect of medicine in which they believe that they can heal people by orienting internal organs in different directions with their hands.)
It is also worth noting that LMU will bring the whole conference down, and if you thought we were already rock bottom you were wrong. Put this load on the shoulders of the Asun and next thing you know the ground is cracking and we're plumiting to hell. Do this and there will be a whole new classification for conferences, forget low-major, we would be a solid very low-major. Who knows, the ncaa might just wake up and say, umm, Asun your basically just a glorified D-2 so we're go to reclassify you as such.
Bringing LMU into the asun is absolutely stupid. Your not stupid are you commissioner? Well, I hope not.
Save face as soon as you can, call off this whole LMU thing. Before this league turns into the ass crack of college athletics. I can already tell you that this league is starting to stink.
Sincerely,
Basketball then homework
