    SDSU reminded me of another "dark" tune: Dies Irae. Their arrangement wasn't the best, but it's a good choice.


    BTW, I know our flag corps isn't the best looking group of female flesh ever to be assembled, but if we ever put them in something as ugly as those outfits the SDSU girls were wearing, somebody will need to be shot. I kept thinking "19th century milk maids" every time I saw them. How can their main uniforms be designed so well and their flag corps uniforms be so ugly?

    I noticed those unis as well. The designer had to have been amish. It was BAD.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Sounds like someone was dumped by a band geek in high school.

    Am I the only one that's about to have an aneurysm when the band plays when we're in the huddle on offense?

    I never comment about the Flag Corps.

    The first year in the Fargodome, I made an unflattering comment about the degree of difficulty of their routine. The lady in front of me turned around and chewed me a new one. Still gives me chills today remembering that lecture.

    No you aren't. As a former drum major, it pisses the hell out of me.

    It's a double-edged sword. If we play when we have the ball, we get comments like these. If we don't, people complain that we aren't playing enough.

    Do not speak of that of about which we talk of not speaking... about.
