Bowl projections...

These are meaningless, but always fun to see where the media thinks we may go... Here are a few I've seen this morning.

Bahamas Bowl (played this year in Charlotte due to stadium renovations on the island) -- Marshall vs. Northern Illinois
Bahamas Bowl -- Marshall vs. Bowling Green
Quick Lane Bowl in Detroit -- Marshall vs. Eastern Michigan
Camelia Bowl -- Marshall vs. Rice

At 6-6, beggars can't be choosers, and playing in Charlotte would be an easy drive for a lot of our fans. It's also a Saturday time slot on Dec. 16, which is a bonus.

Pedo campaign co-chair admits she's 'afraid' Pedo-Joe will lose big due to border crisis

Even Pedo-Joe’s supporters know what's coming. Bleaters keep ignoring Pedo-Joe refusing to uphold our Constitution and secure our borders.

It's going to be one of the biggest reasons he loses badly.

More zero evidence piling up....

Poor @extragreen...Living in denial is a horrible way to live.

How Many of You . . .

don't like the majority of your family?

I ask, because I constantly hear people bickering and fighting with their family and dreading having to be around them for the holidays.

While sunbathing today, before the first-class flight I am currently on to Houston, because ya' know, rich, I witnessed this exchange:

Mom, dad, and young daughter (in a dress, with flowers) have a camera on a stand with a beautiful background to take what I assume are their annual holiday pictures. One problem: Dad forgot to charge the camera, so they don't get to capture any pictures. That makes mom annoyed, and her tone is comical when she says "well how did you let that happen."

Daughter keeps crying about just wanting to get in the hot tub.

Dad starts complaining that "if they all show up late, I am going to be really mad." Mom responds with "you have to learn that you can't control what other people do. If they all come late, then let it go."

Mom tells daughter that she has to stay with dad at the hot tub, because the cleaning lady needs to be let in the house.

Mom complains to dad that she has to change out of her jeans so she can put on better clothes to walk in while wearing heels. Dad goes back to talking about people coming late, and mom responds with "if the lawyer and doctor come late, then we will just ask them each for $100 regardless." I assume they are using their occupations to describe the people so that the young daughter doesn't know who they are talking about.

Daughter keeps crying about wanting to go to the hot tub. Mom tells daughter "if grandpa and grandma are in a bad mood, you'll have to leave them alone, ok?"

Merry fvcking Christmas. Sounds like a blast to be around.

Marshall Board of Governor's update

MU BOG met yesterday.
Here's some of the highlights according to this morning's HD

Approved an increase in costs to the Baseball Field with the completion date still on target, on schedule.

Approved a new PhD in Engineering. We and OU in Athens will be the only schools offering this degree within 100 miles. PhD students in this degree should increase to about 25 within 5 years which will provide a net revenue of over $100,000 for the school.
This will also help MU retain Carnegie R2 research status.

27% of students at Marshall are grad students with 32% of them online. Grad enrollment is up 5% this year.

The University reduced their deficit by $6 million this year and should be net positive by 2027.

Classes in the just completed Brad Smith Center for Business and Innovation will start next month. Located in the 1400 block of 4th Ave, it will be one of the anchoring points for the the new 4th Avenue Innovation District which will increase the campus two blocks toward downtown.

Lot's of exciting stuff going on at MU these days.
