I'll be there this weekend. Serious. want to watch the tt game?

FFF I've been a big fan of your work from day 1, but I have to say, Winters told me some disturbing news; YOU'RE NOT FAT! I'm seriously pissed about this news! But I guess we can still be friends. :embarrassed:
-
Been looking forward to it for months. Months.
Clemson & GT better not ruin this.
If they're both still undefeated i'm pretty sure they'll get it. I mean, if not, OU will be a part of FOUR game days assuming they go do Bedlam. That will also be the only good ACC game left.

Don't do this to yourself, fatty.

Guys, it's gonna be Clemson/GT. Maryland almost saved us this week but didn't. Don't do this to yourselves. :frown:
Also we have to beat Texas Tech.

They are going to show the last OU v. KSU gameday in Manhattan highlights and 2003 highlights and everyone will talk about old times and everyone will talk about Bill bringing back old times with his scheming, and they will make cracks about knowing better than to pick against LHC Bill Snyder and the KSU Cats but then all pick OU anyway and we will lose a feel good game by 17 points. :excited:

If we get GameDay (which we won't), he better come back. And he better be the guest picker guy and he better do it in character as Fizbo.
:bawl:

Maybe Frank can get Pitbull to be the special guest picker :thumbs:

Hey all this talk of pickers needs to go to the blue grass thread -MODS?-

if both schools actually make it to 7-0..... :ump:
but the plate is bsfs, the ump is ksu and the person coming up to bat is espn.

Also, there's supposed to be something about the EMAW family on gameday today.

It's kind of hard to imagine a worse place for Gameday than Georgia Tech's campus.

When you divide by zero, you are limited to infinity. I'll take those odds on getting gameday.

This is the stupidest rough ridin' theory that people believe. Why the eff would anyone do this? ESPN has the rooms because they block them when the games are announced. They may ask for a few more rooms but the main difference is who they bring

Are you saying that ESPN has rooms reserved at every FBS college town for every weekend of the football season? That sounds rather unbelievable. If you're saying that they reserve the rooms after the Gameday location is announced, that's just Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) since rooms sell out months in advance of the football season.

I'm saying they reserve rooms for a game they know they will televise (be it ESPNU, ABC, ESPN, or ESPN2) when the CFB schedule is announced

I never said option A was Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!), I said it was "rather unbelievable"...yet not TOTALLY unbelievable. I guess it makes sense that they would book rooms at all the locations where they might televise from (it doesn't cost anything, they have the manpower to book and cancel rooms, etc.), but that has to be a shitload of rooms for the Gameday crew doesn't it? All of the additional production crew and staff above and beyond a normal game telecast. So are you telling me that 10 or so additional rooms at the Holiday Inn might open up in the next week or so if Gameday decides to go elsewhere?

ESPN calls AD JC, "JC, we want to put your school on national TV for 3 hours next Saturday, can u find us accommodations for 50 extra people?"
Currie has 2 options at this point: 1)Turn down millions in free advertizing or 2)call up the rough ridin' holiday inn and tell them to get on the phone to every idiot with reservations for the next weekend and let them know that the university is willing to buy out their room for the next weekend in exchange for whatever the eff they want.
-
Getting KSU on ESPN Gameday does nothing for Holiday Inn. They are still selling out every weekend there is a game. ESPN tries to pressure hotels for an extra 10 rooms, but worse case, ESPN tells the additional 10 rooms worth of interns/lowly writers to stay at Fairfield/Quality or drive from JC/Salina.
-
Dear god, bros, enough already about hotel rooms for the College Gameday crew. Can you go discuss this on the politics board or something? :flush:

I worked at a hotel in Champaign, IL during the year that Soldier Field was being worked on. We were also one of the closest hotels to the stadium so the refs, TV crews, etc. usually stayed there. The hotel intentionally overbooked continually. They banked on people cancelling and whoever checked in late was SOL. The local airlines had contracts with the hotel, so we were obligated to find rooms somewhere else for pilots if we were full.
-
They could always just stay in aggieville.... I'm sure a few sideline reporters would have no problem finding their own places to crash.
-
they'll stay at prince's vacant house, or in wefald's trundle bed

I worked at a hotel in Champaign, IL during the year that Soldier Field was being worked on. We were also one of the closest hotels to the stadium so the refs, TV crews, etc. usually stayed there. The hotel intentionally overbooked continually. They banked on people cancelling and whoever checked in late was SOL. The local airlines had contracts with the hotel, so we were obligated to find rooms somewhere else for pilots if we were full.
I'd imagine its different for an NFL game. Those get some sort of a national audience on some network and are all televised.
Dear god, bros, enough already about hotel rooms for the College Gameday crew. Can you go discuss this on the politics board or something? :flush:
He's correct. Nobody should give a crap about this anyways

I've always wondered how they get hotel rooms for the entire ESPN crew, do they cancel reservations of regular people like j rake?
probably, but hotels usually save a few rooms(not many) and say they are full up
This is the stupidest rough ridin' theory that people believe. Why the eff would anyone do this? ESPN has the rooms because they block them when the games are announced. They may ask for a few more rooms but the main difference is who they bring
Are you saying that ESPN has rooms reserved at every FBS college town for every weekend of the football season? That sounds rather unbelievable. If you're saying that they reserve the rooms after the Gameday location is announced, that's just Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) since rooms sell out months in advance of the football season.
he's saying the first and no it's not Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!). it's espn and they'd be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) if they didn't. also, he's right.
I never said option A was Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!), I said it was "rather unbelievable"...yet not TOTALLY unbelievable. I guess it makes sense that they would book rooms at all the locations where they might televise from (it doesn't cost anything, they have the manpower to book and cancel rooms, etc.), but that has to be a shitload of rooms for the Gameday crew doesn't it? All of the additional production crew and staff above and beyond a normal game telecast. So are you telling me that 10 or so additional rooms at the Holiday Inn might open up in the next week or so if Gameday decides to go elsewhere?
This is what I was asking, for a Gameday weekend additional ESPN cast & crew will be in town, more so than a regular weekend. Gameday crew, ESPN Radio people, ESPN.com writers, etc.

The U of Illinois had games...I couldn't tell much of a difference other than the Bears fans tipped a lot better. $$$

Fair enough, but as you know those games, I know the Manhattan ones. And being in a bigger city, I would imagine you had more competition for those contracts. In Manhattan, there are really only 2 hotels that are nice enough to compete (maybe 3 once the Garden Inn opens).
