It's most appropriately measured in Courics.

Does he think NoDickSt called ESPN and said "hey guys, we were wonderin' if you wanted to petition the NCAA to start college football early, fly all your crew and equipment out to our little podunk town, and televise our football team to hundreds of millions of viewers even though you already know at most only a million(more realistic is 200,000) are gonna watch. Oh, and the game really don't mean anything. Kinda but not really."Old Shep said:There are actually some shortsighted people in North Dakota, both UND and NDSU, that shared that opinion.

ESPN College Gameday in Fargo ND was an unqualified success by any standard of measurement. It sure silenced the naysayers and backward thinkers! But apparently they are still very vocal in the very States that could benefit. Good old Wyoming and Montana!

ESPN is openly stating they want to go to a new and different place again this year. You goofballs(gwiz and pokes) are so backward you are potentially throwing away an opportunity of epic proportions. All you can say is it's impossible. Sad really frickin' sad! :stupid:

The funny thing is that our playoff game on ESPN against App State in the cold, snowy blizzard in 2009 probably had more viewers watching it than NDSU did when Gameday went to Fargo.![]()

Ursa Major said:Shep, you're guilty of the worst crime possible on a message board. Especially from a troll. You are guilty of the crime of being boring. I hope to see you eventually tried and convicted in The Hague and given Milosevic's old cell. We have had a lot of trolls on here over the years, representing many schools. You are by far the stalest son of a bitch in the history of egriz.
You're not funny, not provocative nor are you entertaining. You lack class, pizazz or an ounce of a sense of humor. Jesus man, get a hobby! Ask that fat cashier out you've been eyeballing down at Sears. Go help feed the homeless. Go to the gym and lose some weight. Just please stop.

1. Has the system changed since 2009?
2. This may have zero impact, but you have listed a date that hasn't happened yet 9-21-14.
3. Are games rated the same as Gameday because the Delaware State game was not shown on ESPN just regional programming.
4. I don't know how you have obtained these numbers. Would you help by explaining how?
5. On the game you listed a rating in brackets. On Gameday you listed nothing.
6. Is your comparison accurate and objective?
7. Thanks in advance for your help.
Provide the evidence that ESPN called ANYBODY from gwizzlyville and then gwizzlyville was so shortsighted that they turned Gameday down in Missoula because they couldn't make it work in advance of coming to Fargo last fall. If that is true, whoever made that call has to be a complete idiot.alabamagrizzly said:Does he think NoDickSt called ESPN and said "hey guys, we were wonderin' if you wanted to petition the NCAA to start college football early, fly all your crew and equipment out to our little podunk town, and televise our football team to hundreds of millions of viewers even though you already know at most only a million(more realistic is 200,000) are gonna watch.

Hey shep, how ya doin over there? The off season is long time isn't it. Too much time on your hands waitin for football to start so we can actually talk about something meaningful. I know the feelin'. I get bored too. So much time to sit and all these random thoughts about what we coulda' done or what we should do. Really it's all pointless. What even makes less sence is when I start worrying about what other teams should or shouldn't do. Teams I don't even care for. Isn't that stupid? I mean really, who has that much time to waste. Well it is the off season and what eles do I gotta do but talk about meaningless empty sh*t. Oh, I could go on someone's eles fan board and try and stir up some sh*t. No, that's a dumb idea. I'm sure their fans wouldn't give a crap what I'm sayin' and would probably think me and all the fans of my team are a bunch of as* holes. I'll just stay on my own board and try and talk about topics that are somewhat productive waiting for kickoff.
