He's referring to the shape of Ohio Stadium, though I'm not exactly sure what his new vision entails.

notice how the corners of the rectangle are curved in an oval shape.

THe point about the crappers, was that they have loads and loads of urinals but in the section i was in anyway from 1 to 29 there were very few sh1tters. For the capacity of the stadium surely there should be a lot more of them based on ratios?!

Ah right, now I getcha.

Big game tonight for the BCS National Championship. This has the potential to be a shoot out, with two high powered offenses. Not even going to try and predict the score, but looking for Florida to win this as they have a much better defense. It will be interesting so see how the Gators adjust to Oklahoma's hurry up tactics.

SEC wins again.

Yet again, high flying offence with a Heisman-winning QB is brought down to earth.

Also shows up the awarding of the Heisman before the Bowl season.

I think the Sooners did far better than many of their doubters expected. Still I'd love to see a Utes-Gators game. It would make for an interesting match-up.

Currently 10-7 to the Steelers but I'm still worried.

**Dunny** · 01/02/2009, 11:57 PM

100 yard return there for the steelers, Steelers up 17-7 at the half.

**paudie** · 02/02/2009, 12:38 AM

That TD looks like a big turning point. Cards could have gone ahead but end up conceding a interception TD on half time.

**Dunny** · 02/02/2009, 1:26 AM

TD Cards! Fitzgerald, Steelers 20-14 Cards.

**Dunny** · 02/02/2009, 1:49 AM

Cards winning 23-20 with 2.37 to play!

**Dunny** · 02/02/2009, 2:04 AM

Pitts winning 27-23, pulled it out of the bag, fair play.

**Dunny** · 02/02/2009, 2:11 AM

Pitts win 27-23.

**Aberdonian Stu** · 02/02/2009, 2:36 AM

That was heart attack inducing stuff, superb!

**strangeirish** · 02/02/2009, 3:06 AM

Great game. Gutted for the Cardinals, thought they had it with a little over two minutes left. But, fair dues to the Steelers, they made the big plays when they had to.

Tragedy off Florida

http://www.iht.com/articles/2009/03/04/sports/nfl4.php
"The Coast Guard's three-day search for two NFL players and a third man sent adrift in chilly seas ended in futility, dashing hopes they might be found after rescuers plucked one survivor from the Gulf of Mexico.

Crews combed more than 24,000 miles of ocean before calling off their search Tuesday for Oakland Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper, free-agent defensive lineman Corey Smith and former South Florida player William Bleakley. The four friends had been missing since Saturday when their boat capsized during a fishing trip.

On Monday, Crews did rescue Bleakley's former South Florida teammate, 24-year-old Nick Schuyler, who managed to stay with the 21-foot boat. But Coast Guard Capt. Timothy Close said if there were any other survivors, they would have been found......."
