I'm not sure where the long hair comment came from... also the clean shaven thing might be in contrast to those who are lazy and don't shave for a week or more (not necessarily not those who have a beard)

giller is on an admitted drunken rampage on the other boards...

my old roomate took it, and it was 7:30 am in the spring.

the first thing tress did when he came in was make remarks about how he hated people wearing baseball caps in the classroom, and how he respected clean shaven kids in class.

I love it! Sounds much like Woody's course except his was at 8:00 in Winter Quarter and the first thing he did was clear the decks and set the rules you'd play by. My respect for Tress grows.

Come on man, that is a little bit much.....especially considering the fact that 3 of his stud linebackers had long hair. Mangold had a grizzly bear beard. Do you not think they will suceed in life?

I've never learned a lesson in life that entailed taking my hat off in a college course. I see what point you are trying to make, but let's not go overboard.

I'll ask Nick-seriously- if he took his hat off in Tressel's presence-it's called class and respect for authority.

What exactly does a flag football class detail?

I mean that has to be the easiest classes ever.

And how do you become a professor for that class? I mean I used to think that being a gym teacher was the easiest job ever. But now I'm kinda rethinking that.

I just talked to my friend who took Coaching Football w/ Tressel but he said it was only fall quarter. Oh well, Flag football for me on Tuesday/Thursday. I also signed up for basketball and slow pitch softball. I don't know which one i'm gonna keep. :)

You don't, it's taught by grad students in EDU PAES, which is the college of the university where Gym Teachers and such (they have coaching classes, reffing classes, and specific sports) are trained, they study physical activity and sport

His preference isn't unusual at all. Although it seems arbritrary, these are your first lessons in Basic Military Training. It serves multiple purposes. The result, if all goes as planned, is a young man or woman that appeals to our biases of professionalism and maturity.

Workin towards that EDU PAES major I see :biggrin:

And for TG...flag football, like most recreational sports classes aren't really classes. It's just a class period that you can get some physical activity and it counts towards an hour of credit. These little one hour classes can keep you full-time or are convenient if you have a few hours between classes and you don't want to leave campus in between. Usually they're a ton of fun (boxing comes to mind).
