Well EMU had 2677 people for our first basketball game at Noon on a Friday. 03-wink
Is that supposed to be impressive?

Why insist on making every thread about bashing EMU? Don't you know what all of this makes you look like?? Yes, we have fantastic attendance and it should be celebrated, but not at the expense of other conference mates! Let it go already!
I didn't insist on making this thread about bashing anyone. You will notice my first post in this thread was about the game.

Someone else (not me) stated Ohio's opponent UNI would not be a good fit in the MAC. I disagreed with that statement and pointed out they would be a better fit than a current member.
I realize not everyone agrees with my statements. It is a free country. That is fine.

FWIW, I really don't think Ohio's good attendance has all that much to do with EMU's status in this conference. I didn't reference Ohio's good attendance "at the expense" of any of our conference mates in any way. I want to see this conference improved. I feel that adding UNI as a replacement would do that.

You're wrong.

you might like him but that doesn't mean I have to. he's horrible, in my opinion.

That sounds like EMU would make a great replacement when Oakland leaves for the Summit League.

I'll be on the phone with the Summit league this week to get a meeting set up.

Not liking him doesn't make him an idiot. He's really nice. If you ever talk to him, he's a pretty clever guy.

ok i'll give you that. maybe horrible is too strong a word. he says some things that tend to grate on my nerves, but he also does a good job of getting the crowd up and rowdy.

I agree with you. The other announcer who did the Ashland game and has filled in for games on occasion (Drake...the head marketing/ticket sales guy) is light years better. He has a style that would fit in at an NBA arena. Lou is a bit too corny and off-the-wall with some of the things he says, more of a small-town high school feel. But hey, to each their own.

Drake is cool too. He has an epic voice/appearance mismatch and the time he participated in a "dance for your dinner" contest and did the dinosaur I almost peed myself laughing.

He also clearly loves what he's doing.

I didn't go to the exhibition game so I don't think I've ever heard Drake. maybe he'll fill in for Lou sometime when i'm there and I can hear him do his thing.

Drake does promotions a lot. You would probably recognize him.
