It’s Hard to Start Drinking At Noon: Illinois Notes

Posted on October 19, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Well, the next two games (at least) will be noon kickoffs. This is the way too far from prime time slot accorded to mediocre matchups by the schedulers at ESPN/ABC. The game desirability pecking order is further delineated by whichever particular Disney owned channel is chosen for broadcast, starting with ABC, then ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and, finally, ESPN+ regional coverage.

Hail to the Victors

Posted on October 18, 2006 Written by The Nittany Turkey

Penn State University ex-President Graham Spanier

UNIVERSITY PARK, October 14 — The Nittany Turkey traveled to State College for the big game of the year, thanks to good friends Joe and Judy, who managed to score some extra club seats. It was a privilege to be a part of the second largest crowd in Beaver Stadium history—110,007 loud, crazy partisans (minus a smattering of maize and blue clad Michiganders). The student section was whited-out, and the usual front-row shirtless idiots, oblivious to the 35-degree weather (no doubt due to having ingested large quantities of anti-freeze) displayed their bare, painted chests to the TV cameras.

Whodat Turkey?

The Nittany Turkey is a retired techno-geek who thinks he knows something about Penn State football and everything else in the world. If there's a topic, we have an opinion on it, and you know what "they" say about opinions! Most of what is posted here involves a heavy dose of hip-shooting conjecture, but unlike some other blogs, we don't represent it as fact. Read More…
