I would love to see them in the playoffs It would be great to see Bitch Baby back in WGS.
The world is full of woulda's, coulda's and shoulda's. It's no stretch of the imagination to say that NAU woulda had a different day if Cookus hadn't initiated that unnecessary block last year. Looking back on it, I think that Cookus should have responded in a different manner to to the day's events and the crowd's chirping. I like that he showed some passion but coming unglued was bad form.
I gotta give it to Griz fans as I had more shit talked to me as an NAU fan on the road at Washington-Grizzly Stadium than at ASU, U of A, Montana State or UNLV games combined.
Your fans have ability to get under the skin of opposing teams and, just like the fabled "noisy cold/cold noise" so often regaled upon here, it can have an effect on the game. I wish NAU fans were loud at times when the scoreboard didn't tell them to. Hell, I wish they simply showed up instead of staying at the tail gate lot and getting drunk.
