Even though you're trolling your nuts off, you're probably correct. ECU should be down this year but ASU has lost a LOT the past 4 years. I'm a fan, but I'm also a realist.

You think we lose by 30? ECU is a favorite and unless we execute very well, I'd probably take ECU by 10-14. Taking a 30-point loss would be extremely surprising to me.

Eh, 30 is probably a little high, but I think 10 - 14 is too low. I'm probably closer to 19 - 22 point margin. I know that makes me a horrible fan, but whatever. I'll be happy if they win and love them if they lose.

Assuming you meant "dominant," that's an interesting take. ECU was 5-7 last season and 4-4 in CUSA, finishing third in the East. Even when trolling, it's important to know the definitions of the words you use.

ESPN will actually let you search by college: http://espn.go.com/nfl/players
Furman currently has five (http://espn.go.com/nfl/players?college=138)
It does list guys that are likely practice squad guys though. Not sure about the FU guys but it lists nine for App and a couple likely won't make the final cut.

For our Catamount friends at AGS and for the many close relationships I have with members of the Western Carolina football staff, I certainly hope that the Purple Haze finds a way to beat Mars Hill.
Now it would be kind of funny to see live rounds being fired by the Corp of Cadets at Johnson-Haygood Stadium this weekend. One of my favorite FCS venues when it isn't 100 degrees down in Charleston.

Even the fake round is fun to fire. A few years back when I made the trip down I had a friend who was our mascot. She was talking to the cheerleaders b4 the game and they offered her the chance to fire it to start the game. We were down there when it went off. Ive always enjoyed blowing things up.

HA! Whining about grammar lessons is even worse.
No last resort here, just trying to make sense of your post. It wasn't just the incorrect use of a word that made your post confusing, but the lack of a logical thought. I noticed you didn't respond to ECU's dismal year last year and how that indicates that they are a "dominant" CUSA team. If you're going to troll, at least bring some quality to it. I think you're better than your last effort. Try, try again.
He will still crap himself, but at least he'll do it sporting the black and gold colors of a school with an actual team. That's more than I can say for UNCC when they take the field against mighty Campbell.
