[NU Sports] I'm joining the Amish sect.

Let's see, if you became Amish, you have already lived your time outside the sect so you'd
be eligible to move right in, start having a zillion kids, and learn to drive those horses
around.

On one end of the scale, Amish farmers tend to be more profitable because they don't use
gasoline or oil products so it is less expensive to operate their farms. They have lots of
kids so they have a built in labor pool, and they do live a simple, healthy lifestyle.

I'd be bored to death, no computers, or sports, but they do play a mean game of
horseshoes.

    NU loses its 2nd game in a row in heart breaking, excruciating fashion.  The Phillies
get knocked out by a bunch of cast-offs/banjo hitters.  I thought of becoming Amish, but
no TV would be too hard of a pill to swallow, and they don't drink beer, except Birch.
    Damn the luck.  Regardless, GO CATS!!                               Eric

Again a little sidelight would be to ask ho come the MSU guy scored the final 

touchdown rather than taking a knee at the 5 or wherever ?  A knee would have 

allowed MSU to take a few more knees and clinch the win. Instead the final TD 

allowed us to have a shot with a minute to go of tying the game.  Obviously it 

didn't matter

As soon as the weather got better  we started losing.  I honestly think this was 

key.  MSU had a tough time passing with a wet ball. Once it was dry they worked 

us like a fiddle.  Yes how could we fall for the fake when they beat ND on one ? 

But had it continued to rain we would have pulled the upset

At halftime Fitz was asked what his team needed to do in the 2nd half.



His answer was:  finish.



Unfortunately, that was what they DIDN'T do--again!



I really HATE losing to Sparty!!  I'm not sure that the announcers on ESPN 

didn't

cheer louder than the MSU fans in Evanston when they took the lead.  



BTW, with Penn State's win today, if they can win at home next week against 

Michigan they will be playing the Cats at home looking for JoePa's 400th 

victory.
