Countdown on the front page

[tony]

Also updated the schedules for all NCAA teams.

About the countdown, I haven't checked the result yet; it might be off.

[Gamehunter]

I hope so!!! It has been saying 68 days for like a week or more now. For a while there I wondered if we would ever see football again at that rate.

The countdown clock has one extra hour on it. We dont want the fans showing up late.

Maybe the countdown should be until the Fargodome parking lots open ;D

[sambini]

ARE THE LOTS GONNA OPEN A HOUR EARLIER AND CLOSE AN HOUR LATER? I THOUGHT I HEARD THAT? ASK SGT. VETTEL I GUESS?

[IowaBison]

That's correct, Sambini.

Tailgating is going to be even better this year!

[Bisonguy]

Heck, the countdown says it's only two days and a little less than seven hours until kickoff on my computer. ???

I guess I better clean up the grill. :o :-/

Hehehe, I think I have the countdown fixed for everybody but Bisonguy.

The only thing I can think of for your problem (bisonguy) is that maybe I uploaded a test version of the page and you still have it in your cache. Perhaps refreshing the page will fix the problem? I doubt that will fix it, but then my usual solution for problems like this is be to buy a new, shinier computer (or at least a better graphics card)... however, my wife is catching on to that one.

Tried refreshing, tried clearing the cache, tried restarting, still shows less than two days until kickoff. :-/

I'm not running Internet Explorer on this computer, so maybe it's part of the Vast Microsoft Conspiracy Theory (http://egomania.nu/gates.html). My wife's computer (i.e. Bisonguy's old computer which is now relegated to internet, Mah Johng, Ebay, and MP3 duty) is using IE and displays the countdown fine.

Just bought a new computer for myself about a month ago. Buying another one just to view the countdown probably won't pass spousal approval. :-/

Not to worry Bisonguy, I dont think you will miss any of the games without the countdown.

Bisonguy...........look at the good side........if you can't get your countdown clock to work it surely means you are not a computer geek........ ;)

LOL- My wife printed off a bunch of "___ Days until Bison DI football kickoff" signs and put them where I could find them around the house, starting at 30 days out last year.

Guess I don't need the countdown. ;D

[sambini]

Tony I really like the countdown. Great job thank you. ;D
