RE: You knew this was coming
I didn't know this board had Razor. How was I to know they had a Razor? Who figures a new board is going to have a Razor? Do you know what the odds are on that? I mean, in all the pictures I saw of boards on boats coming into New York harbor, I never saw one of them with Razor. Why would anybody come here if they had a Razor? Who leaves a non-Razor board to come to a board packed with Razor? It doesn't make sense.. am I wrong?

Yeah I'm sure the fact that they have sold out every game and have a waiting list of 10,000 AND have a good basketball program (usually) had nothing to do with the invite.
ODU was probably a better addition to CUSA than the SBC call-ups. Big market, low in state competition at FBS level, good basketball, good olympic sports, big market with NO professional competition.
ODU was a slam dunk addition.
I wouldn't be opposed to a JMU addition, but I kinda feel like Selig is just giving JMU lip service like ECU's AD did for App. Holland knew the votes for App wouldn't be there, but he made it appear that he supported their addition. Get the feeling Selig is doing the same.

I'd imagine you're probably right on this, but I'm still going to blindly hope for C-USA until something else happens.

Well best of luck to you. If you guys are added, I'll be in Harrisonburg for all the games we play there. Very cool town. I've been through it several times.

Selig can lobby all he wants. Our admin has no interest in CUSA or FBS as a whole.

Once again proving that every situation can be traced back to a Seinfeld episode. Nice one.

Really? That's the first I've heard you mention this. You should keep posting it over and over so that you can get the word out.

True, but we don't want JMU to benefit yet. We want to get a couple of full FBS recruiting classes as the only third FBS option in the state, and then get a new stadium. Then we'll let you in...

If you click on the little green + mark on the bottom left of Razor's post, you can give a minus one on his reputation. He currently sits at a plus 33. Let's see if we can't get him in the red!

So if you click on a username you can view a user's profile. On the profile page, just right of the middle and down below the signature you'll see a link 'Add to Ignore List'.
Just sayin'...

Oh no!!!! With out my positive reputation, I'll never make a bunch of online friends!!!
This is humorous, because everyone here knows how much you care what people online think about you.

Consider the source. Every time I hear the name Razor Ramon, I crack up. The poor bastard is a joke. Even most ODU fans consider him a third-rate douche nozzle.

Makes PERFECT sense.
