RE: Troy
Losing to Troy is never acceptable and I refuse to believe it will happen this year.
If their best player is out, we should win by 10+.

RE: Troy
First off, I'm not a troll and I'm a Blazer True and True was raised in South Alabama And do not want to lose to Troy, But with all respect, I like to see them do good with their basketball program have a lot of good friends out of Troy as much as you northern Alabamaians like to say Troy is a dump they have a great Athletic program and educational program world wide lots of campuses even in China. Not sure if he's still their but they have had a Basketball coach for 30 years. Go Blazers, as much as it hurts I will cheer for you guys against my home town school. I hope Troy does great again just not against the Blazers of UAB.

Thanks Guy, much love, I could run it through spell check or grammar plus. If it would make you feel better.

You received a 91. Normally, when I'm in professional mode, I get like a 92 or 98. Just relaxing with you guys.

Thanks MB, you make my day with your knowledge, don't lighten up you keep me going. Sometimes, I wake up in the middle at night and wonder what was said. Truly do. Any way thanks enjoyed it, I hope.

RE: Troy
Should be a great game. Then again I thought that last season, and you spanked us.
Difference this time around is Troy is more experienced and playing well at this point of the season, compared to last season where the team was still trying to find the chemistry.

When that movie rental business was alive and well in Dothan, they bought naming rights to the Troy football stadium to replace their prior benefactor, Richard Scruchy.
For many years, I have been an admirer of one of Dothan's most talented and beautiful women, Dr Faye Helms Jones whose family operated bait & tackle stores in Dothan. Her doctorate is in engineering.
