Ooooh, maybe we'll get some confused Raiderettes.

Wow!

What was I going to say?

Now, I remember. The Huskies are the team in the endzone.



I can't speak for the whole market, but I can speak for my nephew out in Arizona, who cheers for any team that wears black, especially the Huskies.

He loves all the additions to his Huskie wardrobe that Uncle Jon buys him every Christmas, it just has to be black.

I have a rule; anytime someone mentions Tony LaRussa, I get to mention he's a pudwack.

Tony LaRussa is a pudwack.

A real curmudgeon, too.

Besides pitching changes and alcohol, I can't figure out what the guy likes.

Yep, some even had the #76 patch for Shea and others had the International Bowl logo on them

Love those jerseys, but "The Hard Way" is pretty awful on a jersey

"The Hard Way" is the best part of the jersey!

All parts...

I certainly don't mind "The Hard Way" on the jerseys. I just don't think they should be where the names would go. IMO, the names should be on the back of the jerseys. I think they look somewhat amateurish with "The Hard Way" where it is. Just my opinion.

I just don't like any saying on the back of the jerseys in lieu of the names. Put it on the back of the helmet or on a helmet sticker or something, it does look very amateurish. Use the phrase if that's what they want, just not on the back of the jersey

To me it reeks of desperation. I like it as a motto but not as part of our uniform.

Exactly! go old school, no names on the back, just numbers

Let the bitching begin!

More importantly, this caught my eye:

Quote:• A lot has been made of running back Akeem Daniels being back for fall camp, but junior Keith Harris Jr. is fully healthy after suffering an ankle injury last fall and missing spring practice.

NIU has quite the stable of running backs. Redshirt freshman Jordan Huff, who had an impressive spring, got a good amount of reps Saturday.

Like I said Huff is a "MoFo"!!!!!
