Is it acceptable...?

[Hail Our Panthers]

to make a sign that reads:

Egleseder
Should
Probably
Not drive
2 bars

If not, is it acceptable to put that on the back of my sign so it will only be shown to students behind me?

Its funny, but its probably not a good idea.

Agreed. If you're going to make a sign, do something that unnerves one of the ODU players or coaches. Anything remotely negative against one of our own doesn't belong on national TV. Hell, it doesn't belong on Mediacom either.

The sign we are making right now will relate to Frank Hassell (the player who thought iowa was by california). We were thinking of putting the ESPN 2 sign on the back, where just the students behind us would see it. Just wondering how you guys felt about that.

I'd allow it

Re: Is it acceptable...?

Please don't ...why draw attention to something that does not promote the team in a positive way. The team has accepted Jordan's apology, Jordan is sitting on the bench,
what is the point of the sign. Another point...the sign WILL make it on national television...too tempting not to show it to them. Please, please do not do this.

Tacky, do not make light of DUI with funny sign. Will not go well. And do not make fun of our own team on national television. Tacky

DUI is serious not sign worthy.

Definitely creative, but not appropriate.

Worst idea ever.

Pantherwoman, very well stated. I've not agreed with some things you've posted in the past, but this is spot on correct.

Wouldn't be as tacky as this, but we don't want to be the next Mississippi State...

I'd say it is in the same light of making fun of Pierre Pierce at Iowa, whose transgressions were just as serious as a DUI, if not more so.

I'd say rape is worse than a DUI.


I thought about some rather simple ones to hand to people in seciont 108 to hold up to the ODU bench. Something like


"Glad you found Iowa"

"Is Iowa's food good enough for you?

and


"Sorry to disappoint you with the snow"

Not to get OT, but Pierre Pierce's deal and a DUI are not comparable. That assumes the DUI was a solo occurence (ie. noone else's property was damaged, noone else was hurt, etc.). It's a pretty big difference between a serious misdemeanor and a felony - as well it should be.

The students shouldn't breath a word of JE's situation in the arena. For one thing, many of the students have probably driven after having a few and never been caught - and many more of the adults. Let JE learn from his mistake and move on, and keep his focus for the rest of the season. Reserve your wrath for our opposing players and coaches - they are fair game as long as it's not someting that justifies an arrest.

Is this a joke? If not, one of the dumbest things I've heard.
