Since you did it I will throw out the non conference schedule for a team that I follow.

8/17 Long Beach State
8/23 @Penn St
8/31 @Florida
9/3 @Florida State
9/7 Pepperdine
9/13 @Loyola Marymount
9/16 @San Diego State

Also of note this team plays @Stanford on 9/27 which will be immediately prior to the CONCACAAF qualifying tournament. They play 4 of the top 6 teams in the country all on the road and Pepperdine and Long Beach are solid teams too. 2 Non conference home games and only 7 home games overall means that they are going to be battle hardened killers come tournament time.

I like their chances.

That’s what you call having balls and confidence, I love it. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace!

That’s how you schedule when you’re a big dog, can you hear that Alabama football. . . . bunch of wussies (don’t get me started on that rant).

They get the first picks, along with Stanford, of the top players in the country.
It only makes sense for them to seek out the best competition.

Surfrider - My sources in the NE Think Tank conference leaked that Brown's trip to the BU is actually a recon/lay of the land/scouting trip. You see, them girls in the D1 NE conference play chess, while others are still playing checkers.

My source said that Alumnus/contribors/select boosters wanted their squad of future heads of state/entrepreneurs & CEO's to get an idea of where they want their future summer vacation homes.....Yes, Tough decisions like "do I want that spectacular home on Serra Rd....overlooking Surfrider riding waves at 1st, 2nd & 3rd point"...and/or "do I want a cliffside compound at Point Dune next to another heady/ceribral type that goes by the name of Stark".

A beat down of Brown it will probably be.....But there is always more than you can actually see :)

It's good that you so frequently remind the board who you are.

You ok Hank?
I just do not feel a college graduation ceremony is the right place to tell someone to be a victim, you?
Academia has already had over 15 years to brain wash these poor kids, that's enough.

It isnt all she said in the speech. Some of it was inspiring. She didnt tell them to be victims, she told them they already were victims and implored them to not be victims in the future, but you're right, in doing so, she had to dip it in the dirty water of identity politics and mess it all up.
I like the wolf analogy, though.
I think of myself as an orangutan or a baboon. (because Im colorful, and have great hair)
 
..and MAP is the crazy drunk alcoholic with the low IQ that threatens to beat up your grandparents if they don't wipe their wheels when invited into his double-wide.

Sometimes I wonder if it is your upbringing, or your insensitivity, or insecurities, or myopia, of your lack of compassion for others, or simply your reading comprehension that causes you to say these things. Do you believe in God?

It really must be nice to not be a minority and to get to choose what group you want to associate with. The term "identity politics" is a complete dismissal of true grievances that groups in this heterogeneous culture actually have. You should just once in your life try to imagine an opposite world and how you would want to be treated in that world. How would you feel if you were in a majority brown/black country where Islam and Hinduism are the religions of 90%+ of the population and you made 60-80% of what a black Hindu woman with a lower level of education than you made for doing the exact same job and it was called "identity politics."

You don't have to answer. It's pretty much common sense. Good luck to you and your players this season.
