Inu-bot:7 "home" games in 2010?

[inudesu]

6 in Russ's town and 1 in Shreveport? I could live with that (to say the least).

hahaha, I like the part about someone asking him how to use the cupholders. I say if we play in Shreveport, it needs to be Arkansas or someone similar.

Would love to have the Hogs in Shreveport. Wondering if their AD Jeff Long would agree with a 1 and 1 (I-Bowl and War Memorial in Little Rock). I know their previous AD Frank Broyles had no interest in playing us after the 13-17 scare in 1997.

Some of our fans want to play NSU??

I can assure you, I will not drive to S'port to watch it.

I bet that can be attributed to people saying they would like to bring back the State Fair Game. Not that they want neccessarly to play Northwestern St., but they want a yearly game against a regional opponent in Shreveport.

I just figured out what part of your handle means! I got, by default, two dogs from the kids. A Japanese bread, Sheba Inu. Inu being dog in Japanese. They are beautiful dogs and very active. They demand a lot of attention and we are being swept away with these wonderful dogs.

No way we would have seven home games in one year. I am happy to have six. Looks like the 2010 home schedule will be fun.

Yep. Desu is just the Japanese "to be" verb.

By the way, the character in my avatar is not "Inu" (although I use it on the scout message boards). It's "blue."

Did we read the same article?

Some fans would like to see a nostalgic State Fair game with Northwestern State, while others would like to see Arkansas come to Shreveport.

Also, where does it say that we want a YEARLY State Fair game? Now if Arkansas wants to play that's great, but NSU, no way.

I believe that article is misleading. Ask anyone whether they would rather play Arkansas or NwSt and 99% would answer correctly

I was speaking in general. As in any random Tech fan saying, "I really miss the State Fair Game from years back." It's not the team playing Tech they miss. It's the game atmosphere. But some will hear that and will think "they want to play Northwestern St. again."

And let's not forget that Jimmy Watson LIKES to stir us up a little. I bet the Times website starts flipping digits everytime he types somethink like that. I know I clicked on that page 3 times today. And I first clicked it last week!

My point is, that's really minor, Dooley won't agree to it, so it will never happen. No sense on getting your blood pressure up over nothing.

Dooley may very well agree to it as NwSt is one of the teams being considered for S'port.

Too bad "bulldog" is the same in Japanese and English ( ブルドッグ ), otherwise I'd use that for my name. Maybe I should switch my avatar to the kanji for RED, just to be the Japanese yin to your yang. Haha! Oh, speaking of... I will probably be in Japan again for a little bit right after this coming football season's over... It looks like I won't be moving back there at least though until early 2011, so if we have 7 home games next year, I'll see them all!

I could live with this as long as it is not a yearly thing. I wish we could do away with the yearly in-state deal. We seem to rotate Nicholls and SELA every other year. I think it would be fine to rotate all the other small LA schools but only schedule one game every 3 seasons.

In case that is confusing I will illustrate:

2009 Nicholls
2012 ULL
2015 SELA
2018 ULM............


This way we leave room for more BCS teams and more competition that is on our level who could come to Ruston/Shreveport for a game.

So what is the Japanese take on this Chinese (kanji) character?
