...you could just have stickers made up to paste over the old BigEast logo, and save quite a bit by 'repurposing' letterheads...

Roger that! Sorry for the Germish! It was late and I was bored. I don't think we are going to get much in the way of significant news until the Maryland issue is settled. N.D.'s early move to the ACC was somewhat expected, but still important. Other than that and Spetman's mouth not much worth talking about is going on. Take care. JR

Translation:
Ich möchte keinen Berliner (or Krapfen as we are in Bavaria saying), aber zwei Bier bitte. Eines (whats's that "das swartz"?) für mich und eines für meinen Freund.
When I have been living and working in the US in the Mid Nineties I heard a lot of Americans trying to speak some German. Mostly some old war related stuff like sayings from Schulz (AAACHTUUUNG) in the TV series Hogan's Heroes. By the time it was quite boring.
Havy you been in Germany stationed?

I couldn't remember how to order the dark beer. That's my attempt.
I think comrade is probably more appropriate than friend so I changed it. No, I've been to Holland but didn't have the time while on business to go to Germany. I've always wanted to go. So, when my daughter wanted to go there to study, I was pleased to send her. I minored in German years and years ago as part of a B.A. in preparation for a military languages school, but life took me in another direction. I still would like to go but family pulls me in other directions now. My Bucket List (things I wish to do before I die) for travel would be the Galapagos Islands, New Zealand, and Germany. I'd like to take the Clipper (sailing ship) they offer to the Galapagos.
Forgive no umlauts I never switch the keyboard settings for them.
P.S. Thanks for the correction. I don't think I was off too badly for a language I haven't used in 30 plus years. Plus, I've long since given my Langenscheidts Dictionary away. I've always been glad that Germans were not language snobs like some of the French are.

RE: New Conference Name Proposed for America12
Just call it the Atlantic 12 and be done with it....
There are both a Big 12 and a Big 10 and neither one is the same conference so go pound sand A10 if you take issue with it!!!!
Besides if what is rumored to play out there may not be (or will be a shell of itself) an A10 to speak of soon.
They don't hold the trademark to that name (Atlantic 12).
I can live with the A12 or Atlantic 12.
