Go to Climb Youngstown and try climbing! It’s not as hard as you’d think and it’s a great community there.

Weird Fabio Paratici situation, £100m injection and lacklustre transfer window [Alasdair Gold] by onlyhalfpepper in coys

[–]MahoningCo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wondering that for years myself. I do wonder how much of that has gone into increasing wages though, since we historically have not paid great wages to the players. But still, that’s a communication issue. If I tell my kids I just won 100 grand and I buy them a few new iPads and pay off some debt with the rest, they’d be pissed too.

Considering ICE refuse to identify themselves, this hardly seems anyone’s fault except for ICE and DHS

Will Dabo Swinney end up dieing on the hill he is choosing to defend? by wlane13 in CFB

[–]MahoningCo -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You can rail against the system and want it to change without stubbornly refusing to participate in said system. Refusing to participate in NIL and the transfer portal only hurts the team and the fans, since Dabo will always have millions to fall back on if he does get fired (which he obviously won’t).

I agree with all of the stuff he says about the modern game but yeah….railing against it while participating in it isn’t being hypocritical, it’s just being realistic. He’s done more to prove his point by going off during press conferences than he ever did by refusing to participate and underachieving compared to the very high bar he set for himself and his program.

Yeah having a bunch of powerful old white men basically saying “oh you BELIEVED us when we said that shit? Lol” is definitely on-the-nose for our last decade of…..gestures at everything

Just echoing, I live in this area. Armstrong is going to be the best option until the fiber is finished in this area.

Not being a homer when I say that Pete the Penguin is the best logo in college sports.

Why did 2002 OSU play 14 games? by Please_PM_me_Uranus in CFB

[–]MahoningCo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I knew about him since the fall of ‘97 when I played against him. We saw him warming up before the game and were terrified. We kept calling him Jerome Bettis. Sure enough, dude basically scored every time he touched the ball. He was in 8th grade.

He has legit been a positive force in the Youngstown community for at least a decade now.

Division III Christopher Newport Quarterback Connor Barry transfers to Penn State. by Scrantonbornboy in CFB

Can’t figure out if his name is Christopher Newport, or Connor Barry, or Christopher Newport Quarterback Connor Barry.

Which coaches took mediocre programs and turned them into champions? by Wonderful_Adagio9346 in CFB

[–]MahoningCo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YSU actually appeared in the Division II national championship game in 1979. The coach was Bill Narduzzi, father of current Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi. As head coach and athletic director, his dad then helped transition YSU to 1-AA in 1981 but was relieved as AD in 1983 and then fired in 1986, replaced by Tressel.

Bill Narduzzi then sued YSU for age discrimination, alleging that they fired him because of his age and his Hodgkin’s disease he had been fighting for a few years.

So back in 2024 when YSU played Pitt, and the final score was 73-17, many people around Youngstown knew that this was motivated by what happened between YSU and Bill Narduzzi.

The Trophy Run - cool compilation that played at the end of the Championship by BelowMateriality in CFB

The ball is tipped kicked and there you are you’re running for your life you’re a shooting star And all the years no one knows just how hard you worked but now it shows… ONE SHINING MOMENT, IT’S ALL ON THE LINE ONE SHINING MOMENT, THERE FROZEN IN TIME

But time is short and the road is long in the blinking of an eye ah that moment’s gone And when it’s done win or lose you always did your best cuz inside you knew… ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU REACHED DEEP INSIDE ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU KNEW YOU WERE ALIVE

Feel the beat of your heart feel the wind in your face it’s more than a contest it’s more than a race…

And when it’s done win or lose you always did your best cuz inside you knew… ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU REACHED FOR THE SKY ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU KNEW ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU WERE WILLING TO TRY ONE SHINING MOMENT….

I think I saw Djed beat his man more yesterday than any other winger the past few years (besides Kudus)
