Inspiring stuff. <br /><br />You'd think that if you systematically cheated in recruiting like UConn has been proven to do, that you'd at least get a couple of the kids to the Jim Calhoun Memorial Library every once in a while? Or at least give the team the stolen laptops with Mapquest as the home page, should they get lost on their way.CThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05783098791522341665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-28994049986555582212012-06-20T17:19:23.343-04:002012-06-20T17:19:23.343-04:00Surely there's a joke in here somewhere about ...Surely there's a joke in here somewhere about appearances over substance, perception vs. reality, etc. It's a metaphor for something, right?

It is a lawsuit waiting to happen once a player or fan crashes into it.<br /><br />I am sure BC is making every effort to make sure the wall is state of the art in safety.OSHAguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18120485038035129220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-41726970636544052052012-06-20T14:41:27.960-04:002012-06-20T14:41:27.960-04:00I would rather have Duece Finch run head first int...I would rather have Duece Finch run head first into a "pre-fab" brick wall than a real one. Along the same lines one of the selling points of the new field turf is that it results in fewer injuries.knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04805180161124683145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-78893474056452820122012-06-20T13:41:51.861-04:002012-06-20T13:41:51.861-04:00I would hope that the architect and builder know a...I would hope that the architect and builder know about these things.

All I can say is - it's a thin slice of brick that's really fragile as a result. Seems like an odd choice to line a football stadium unless there's some serious backing to it.bcmikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516661881185095461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-61662029308058880662012-06-20T12:54:30.306-04:002012-06-20T12:54:30.306-04:00This is the "green" way to do it so that...This is the "green" way to do it so that when they shrink the stadium to 20,000 seats to ensure a sell out they'll be able to remove and reuse the "bricks" elsewhere, to fortify GDF's bunker, for example.mod10aeaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04009617224575563986noreply@blogger.com
