FULMER CUP: BOWLING GREEN ENTERS THE RACE BRAWLIN’
A short but sweet entry from the mighty MAC, who with Ohio’s frenetic work have already made a huge impact in the 2007 Fulmer Cup: Bowling Green’s Nate Waldron is picked up for bar brawlin’ outside a North Street Bar, earning Bowling Green a point for fightin’ in a drunken state. (HT:Devil Grad.)
Upgrades available should felony-grade details emerge, or if he threw someone through a plate glass window, something we’ll call the “80s Brawling Finish,” since every action movie for ten years or so had to have a scene where someone got tossed through a plate glass window onto the pavement. They have to emerge unmussed and without a spot of blood on them, of course, and be completely fine after a few vigorous shakes of head. Otherwise, no dice.
Like sax solos, crashing through windows only lives on in Walker, Texas Ranger reruns.

When, may I ask, will the magical EDSBS Fulmer Cup Score Board arive? There is nothing like seeing your name in lights!

“Fightin’ in a drunken state.”
Is there any other way?

If you realized you were going to spend four years on the windswept plains of northwest Ohio where the biggest event in town is the national tractor pulling championships, you’d probably carry out most of your activities of daily living in a drunken state. It doesn’t help that BGSU looks like nothing so much as a state psychiatric facility and that most MAC folks like to joke about “the tree” in town.
(Full disclosure: From where I grew up in the Homeland, BGSU was essentially the “neighborhood” school. But familiarity breeds contempt.)

DevilGrad, if he’s in Ohio, aren’t ALL of his daily activities carried out in a drunken state?

DevilGrad should probably be named a Fulmer Cup co-chairman, what with being the clearinghouse of all Buckeye State naughtiness.

Co-chairman? Nope. I’m just the MAC/Ohio beat writer.

As far as I can tell, the current tally looks something like this:
Ohio University 6
Bosie State 2
South Carolina 2
Washington 2
Bowling Green 1
Memphis 1
Georgia 1
No MSPaint for me, thanks, quick and dirty.
Hope this helps.

Heck, if you’re taking both the MAC and the state of Ohio, you might as well just take the co-chair job too, as they seem to be one and the same.

OU’s up to eight points already. (And, yes, Mr. Swindle, I do *hate* those bastards.)

My bad, I only counted posts tagged “Fulmer Cup”. I suck.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t Memphis on the verge of having points in hand fulls? Do NCAA violation count?

I think the plate glass window thing jumped the shark when Barkley did it. Once Chuck Norris and Barkley have done it, there’s really nothing else for anyone to add.
