No doubt. If I hear "2003" ONE MORE TIME, I'm gonna slug someone.

It's like lamenting the girlfriend that left you in 2003--all your crying and hoping isn't going to get her back. GET OVER IT!

Maybe it's because of the "invasion" this week. Maybe it's because I have three helpings on my plate at the moment (to which PN usually provides a nice quick and occasional break), but this is just unbearable.

Re: Anyone else utterly and completely...

I can't wait for this to be over too. I have a lot more fun with UMASS fans. Sunday-friday next week will be fun.........Plus being able to reference 2003 AND 2007 the next time UNI has the misfortune of playing the Hens.

I think you're right--they've innundated the board here and posted a lot of stuff that isn't really relevant or is smack. Some useful information has been posted.

I tend to think of this theory:
When a person in denial is asked about that, they will deny it up and down. Ex: if a person is dating someone but they say they aren't (which is jerky, but best example off the top of my head.)

The more the Hens squawk about themselves and their team, the more it shows the denial. If they are great, they'd be sitting back like "yeah, no big deal. not worried." Instead, they flock here and just start leaving chicken poop all over the place.

03 was a mess UNI's flight was diverted and the weather was terrible, if I remember correctly weren't UD fans throwing snowballs? What a terrible way to enter a game, travel weary and they had to get their bags out of a plane in torrential rains with water up to their ankles then the snow storm in Newark, 2007 will not be the same.

Re: Anyone else utterly and completely...

Heh. Funny thread.

So far, I've found the UD fans to be 25% knowledgeable, 25% tolerable & 50% unintelligable.

It appears this year they have a good team, who should make some noise if they bring their best game. However, I think they're also feeling some false confidence from their big win over DSU and our misleadingly tight game over UNH. If the refs hadn't miscalled that non-fumble and if the D had managed one more stop in the second half, the final score would have been radically different and I don't think UD fans would be as overconfident as they appear to be.

I'm looking forward to Saturday, even though I won't be in the Dome. For everyone that does, though, if/when we win, can you start shouting Oh-Seven!, Oh-Seven! at the end?

you are correct about that... It won't be nearly the same.....You see, the Hens plan ahead and don't wait til the last minute to travel. by leaving on Thursday, they will be settled into their hotel thursday evening.....get a good night sleep.....do some classroom work in the morning, and a walk through at the dome on Friday afternoon......get another good nights rest and be ready to go on Saturday.

Re: Anyone else utterly and completely...

do some classroom work in the morning

Little do you realize... it's in our insidious plans to include free adult movies at the hotel. Your focus will be completely lost! HA HA HA!

Re: Anyone else utterly and completely...

Wow...assuming BOTH a DelAware and UMass win on Wednesday.

It's the CAA, no way they both lose to GFC teams

THat's looking a little too far ahead for me. This should be a great game, lets get it on already. Could come down to who has the ball last. And Umass tends to choke in the playoffs, save for last year.

Re: Anyone else utterly and completely...

Ive enjoyed it actually. Opposing fans to banter with. Rarely do we actually get those, and when we do its usually like one guy.

This week has been fun!

Its been long and thankfully the Packers play tomorrow night to break up the long wait.
