I'm getting better...this is 2 in three days. Tomorrow I'm going to send out a dreaded mass e-mail to try to get people to come back and check it out...see if anyone really cares.

I had season tickets to SU Football my senior year. I finally said "Enough's enough" with Young Life and working and demanded that I have time to see all the games. And they didn't lose one, I don't think. They lost a lot on the road. Bums.

There was a quarterback controversy on the team thanks to a fickle coach who couldn't decide who to play. The previous week, we thought he had declared R.J. Anderson the full-time QB. We were happy to put that to rest. Troy Nunes was taking all the snaps the following game. The entire Dome booed the (expletive) out of this poor kid. Turns out R.J. was sick and couldn't play. Oops.

Regardless, I stand by the fact that Pasqualoni had really irked people with his indecisiveness and that's why we were booing the switch. No one who has already made up their mind about the evil in every member of the crowd that day will change their mind based on my testimony. Pasqualoni is fired, and the town is celebrating like they do in Monty Python and the Holy Grail...with a "Yay!"

The new job threw me out of my comic-posting routine. I am a creature of habit with few habits.

This seems like a good time to get the "Free Billy" thing running anyway. Brief synopsis: Billy Edelin got in trouble for some sort of sexual misconduct in the summer before his freshman year at SU. The University suspended him for a year. During that time, I created the "Free Billy" campaign. I graudated. The following summer, Edelin played in some men's 40+ rec league games, for which the NCAA suspended him another 10 games. During the second suspension, when I was in North Carolina, "Free Billy" shirts and posters apparently started popping up around the Dome. Thieves. SU wins the national championship. The following year, Edelin craps out halfway through the year because of depression/drinking. Last year (year 4 of the saga) he misses the early part of the season because of failure to meet academic requirements, mainly as a result of previous suspensions. He is in and out of the team in a tumultuous year. Now he is officially transferring. Too bad, he was a good player. Now, the saga ends with the reproduction of teh "Free Billy" comics. Enjoy.
