RE: new schedule is out

[ALACOMBE]

For me it is the change of the name that I do not like.  How would
you like to cheer for the UC Fifth Thirdians?  Absurd, right.  Well
it is the same damn thing.  It was the Shoe and it still is the
Shoe.  If it was named when it was built I think most people would
not have a problem with it.  This way it appears that they sold
out.

The one thing that the Bungles did the right way was naming the
stadium, Paul Brown Stadium - very cool move.
