Hope this isn't out of line, but I have a a request. I'd appreciate it if the score could be posted more often than it was during the BG game. I suppose what I do trying to keep up with each play is overkill and probably isn't necessary, but I read through the Rockets-Falcons game thread (after I knew the final score) and I think the score was posted 2, maybe 3 times. For those of us (well, OK, me) who sometimes can't listen to or watch the game but can check in occasionally during the game and want to do it here instead of relying on live stats, finding out how the game is going can be tough.

Thanks in advance.

You might could try downloading the ESPN app and using the stat tracker...

I guess that's not my point. I know there are plenty of places to check the score. But I don't get why it can't be posted more often in a game thread. Someone comes here to read a game thread and reads plenty of comments (which are usually interesting and worth reading and one of the reasons I'm here as much as I am) but a score can't be posted more than once or twice? Checking in here when I could during the game and I just gave up and looked for the score elsewhere. I'm not the brightest bulb, so I apologize for whatever it is I'm missing. But I don't get it.

cincyrocket has provided all of us with loads of information over the years. If he asks for the score to be posted periodically, somebody post the damn score.

He is the QB who has made our offense run all season.

That's a tough break. Can't wish that on anybody. We know what it's like to lose a star player like that.

It looks as "tough breaks" are the only kind EMU can catch. I thought that they had the potential for a very special season this year even before they beat Purdue---and that victory just reinforced that thought -----and then the roof fell on them with all those close losses and then today Glass goes down-----really too bad---after more than a decade of being down they really deserve to catch a (positive) break.

Didn't read. We stink.

You mean no tackling period

The good news for Toledo is, if Toledo wins out, they hold the tiebreaker over EMU. Ok, I guess that’s not very funny.

We used to have a guy that did regular score updates. What the heck was his name? I’m with Dwight. You deserve to read the score here. I rarely post during games but I’ll try to at least do some score updates when I do.

Yeah. Who is that guy anyway?

More seriously, I think I'll be around next Saturday. But after that the weeknight games start, so ...
