"Well, I don't have anything to say, you've done the best you could. You really have, the best you could. You can't expect to win em all. But, I want to tell you something I've kept to myself through these years. I was in the war myself, medical corps. I was on late duty one night when they brought in a badly wounded pilot from one of the raids. He could barely talk. He looked at me and said " The odds were against us up there, but we went in anyway, I'm glad Captain made the right decision. The pilot's name was George Zip. The last thing he said to me, doc, he said, "Sometime when the crew is up against it, the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to get out there and give it all they got and win just one for the Zipper. I don't know where I'll be then doc, he said, but I won't smell too good, that's for sure.

Never liked those Akron polyester pants.

FEAR THE ROO!?!?!

ARRRRGGHHHH!!!

A lot has changed since we lost to the Zips in 1949. At that time, we were a 7,000-student cow college affectionately called "Sing Sing on the Brazos." See http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,940101,00.html. Now our student body numbers more than 47,000 and we have indoor plumbing and even a presidential library.

Meanwhile, Akron has rusted away, and its population has declined by 30% to about 208,000. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akron,_OH. But it is still the "Rubber Capital of the World." ("And that is what we are going to do to them Ags" [I couldn't resist...sorry!]) By the end of the game, they will be reminded why AA started in Akron. :-)

...so you're saying we have a chance?

You can book it...even though our initials don't stand for "Athletics and Military" any more. ;-)
