Season Prediction Thread

[s_curl]

Figured this is a good time to get the prediction thread moving -- someone else can start the "OFFICIAL" thread later. So looking into my crystal ball.... I see the following:

- Our mascot will still be around
- Prez Merten will shoot at least one errant t-shirt with the t-shirt gun
- 1 uncalled for rushing of the court by students
- Coo Coo will be unable to make it to a game this year
- patriot club might have cold beer
- tomgmutom detects at least one camel toe from the dance team
- fro makes it through homecoming weekend without incident
- PiKapp and s_curl finally meet up for the long awaited steak dinner and brews; gmubrian tags along to take advantage of PiKapp's open dinner check

Thats all I can come up with right now.......what you got?

mikey the chimp also makes a return appearance

patriot club might have cold beer

Please don't tease me.

Along those lines ...

The concourse level Patriot Club level room will continue to run out of food before game time at least half the games. So I'll be forced again to spend highway robbery level prices to get my kids fed at the game.

[Coo Coo]

- Coo Coo will be unable to make it to a game this year

Yeah, I think you're right on this one. My only shot would be Bracket Buster game somewhere in the mid-west... maybe against a MVC team. SIU would be a fun game.

Have you seen the home schedule?

Better not happen.

[s_curl]

come on, where are all the prognostications?

- s_curl will see angry at Brion's grille at some point in the fall
- angry will not be the one to kill this thread

- there will be ample bitching about the coverage of Mason in the WPost
- dan steinberg writes a couple of blogs about mason basketball

- nobody will continue to care about women's hoops

The team will have a two game losing streak at some point, causing prominent members of the board to jump off the bandwagon.

They will turn it around and finish strong, causing prominent members of the board to inquire about hotel reservations at regional finals sites.

At some point in the season S_curl will reveal his bitterness towards the basketball program in a rant about the lack of facilities for the baseball program.

Ok I will play:

1.) Mrs. Pikapp will attend 80% of the games with me and kids in tow.
2.) On two occaisions Mrs. Pikapp will get embarrased by me and I will have to get a ride home from GMU Tom.
3.) GMUBrian will get me into the Patriot Club room at least once this season.
4.) My oldest son will ask a Mason cheerleader out on a date. Given his current luck with girls - I give him 50-50 odds.
5.) I will pay my debt to S_Curl and include GMUBrian. We will all get soused, do something dumb, and we will all get bailed out by Mrs. Pikapp.
6.) I say there will be much more interest in women's hoops.
7.) ZM might actually say hi to me when I say hi to him before the game. :?

[gmubrian]

I predict:

I will be in attendance for every home game, every post season tournament game and at least two road games.
118cc5 will predict an undefeated season for us
At least one of s_curls predictions above will be completely wrong
I will finally get to meet s_curl in person
McCain will be ...Wait, wrong thread for that one
PiKapp will stand me up only once this season (probably for the free dinner with s_curl).
I will be accused of drinking GMU Kool-Aid at least once
The Homecoming theme will be ripped to shreds in a thread here on the zone
There will be complaints about parking at games, even from at least one person who doesn't even come to the games.
Angry will embarrass me with an old picture from high school
gmutomgmu will bum a ride from me to/from at least one game
William and Mary will not be playing us in the CAA final this year
