Professional Tailgating: Dr. No

The OTWT Tailgating crew went to its first baseball playoff game on Wednesday night and boy did we strike gold as Doc Halladay threw a no-hitter. Here are some of the sites of the night.

I was there tonight and this proofs it. Halladay is a monster. More on it tomorrow.

Is this really a Pioneer?

As a graduate of William Paterson University, its always good to back to old campus. The family made the trip up there last weekend. While there have been a lot of improvements and there has also been one large negative change.

How can a university with a Pioneer as its mascot have a bear parading around at football games. Billy the Bear is the pioneers mascots, yes he is a bear dressed up like a pioneer, complete with raccoon skin hat. As a Pioneer, its hard to see a bear being our mascot. Our mascot should look like the West Virginia Mountaineer and not like a fucking stuffed animals and I'm not the only one that feels like that. On facebook a person has started a group to let people know how much they hate it.

This must not continue, Billy the Bear needs to be hunted down and eliminated. He is an embarrassment.

Professional Tailgating: Division III Style

So instead of going to Rutgers Tulane game this weekend, the OTWT Tailgating Crew head home, William Paterson University for their homecoming game against Western Connecticut. The Pioneers won the game 35-0 win. It was good to be home, but a lot different then being at the big state U for a game.

Not as many tailgaters as at Rutgers

 The stands look more like a high school game then a college game

 I think that they were the only camera crew on site

Inches from being a hero

When Jason Avent got both hands on Kevin Kolb's hail mary pass at the end of the game , all I kept thinking was wow he is going to be a hero. But when Avent could not come down with it, I knew the hate would come.
I'm not going to hate on Kolb, but I am going to say this, young qb takes time and Kolb needs that time. Troy Aikman was talking about Kolb not seeing the field correctly today and he was right because Vick has been getting all of the reps and action. If Vick is to be gone for sometime then all Eagles fans are going to have to support Kolb or this is going to get bad. As for Mc5, it was weird seeing him redskins colors but in the end his performance was not one to go nuts about.
At 2-2 the season is not over and we have to remember that. So let's get down off the bridges and get on board for the rest of the season.
