Bold Predictions for Flag Football ‘09

The 2009 POWERADE College Intramurals Flag Football season is right around the corner. Within the next few weeks, teams will be taking to the fields with hopes of being crowned Intramural Champions. Those coveted t-shirts await!

So what can we look forward to this season? Here’s a few BOLD predictions:

- After starting the season 3-0, several defending champion teams will take a black Sharpie to their 2008 championship t-shirts and insert “2009.” Repeat anyone?

- At least once per night of intramurals, on every campus across the country, a captain will use the famous Jim Mora speech to express his/her frustration with their team. PLAYoffs?!

- One team at UGA will take their rivalry with the University of Florida a little too far when they name their team the “Florida Gators” and then purposely lose every game throughout the season.

- Brett Favre will register for a class at the University of Minnesota so he can win an intramural championship for his daughter (:52 second mark). He will then throw 7 interceptions.

- Seventy-two teams will use their team name as a dedication to Michael Jackson.

- Eighty-eight teams will wish they had chosen a different team name by season’s end.

- After starting the year 0-5, and being shutout in three of five games this year, “The All Star Studs” will hold a press conference officially announcing that they “were not trying their hardest” and “didn’t want to make other teams feel bad by running up the score on them.” Zero people will attend the conference.

- A referee will throw a flag so high in the air that it does not hit the ground until the 2010 Flag Football season begins.

- Someone will try this trick play (make sure someone is getting it on tape!).

- It will be an unforgettable season.

    IM Basketball Interrupted by NCAA Losses

    The Intramural basketball season at Illinois State University was in shock this weekend as the Redbirds continued their losing ways against conference opponents. After a disappointing showing on ESPN2 Friday night, the Redbirds were still poised to take the first or second spot coming into a must win MVC tournament. The Redbirds next two games were against the Northern Iowa and Creighton, who both sit at #2 and #1 respectively in the MVC. So the Redbirds were set, and LOST to the Panthers at HOME in DOUBLE OVERTIME. Sounded like the perfect catalyst to a Disney Movie. The Redbirds would beat the #2 team the Panthers, and then the #1 team Creighton, and then securing the top or second spot in the MVC. However, it was not to be, and those who missed the intramural games that night were severely disappointed. Nevertheless, those of us who were there got to enjoy free POWERade!

    CHAMPION vs. CHAMPION: Sig Nu vs O-D-Phi

    It is week 3 ladies and gentleman, and you know the competition is heating up in the Greek League. What’s better than a bitter-sweet rivalry that always proves to be one of the best games of the season? Its that time of the year for the Knights of Sigma Nu to face off against the Knights of Omega Delta Phi in what is sure to be a thriller. The game will take place @7 p.m this Wednesday on the second floor of the Student Recreation Center.

    Both teams are off to a 2-0 start and hope to continue their win streaks. With Sigma Nu being the current champs of IM basketball and Omega Delta Phi being the current champs of IM football, the intensity is sure to be felt by everyone. Come out and cheer for your pick while we pass out some POWERade gear and towels. If you cant stand the heat, come cool off with some POWERade.

    See you there!

    Basktball kicks off at Delaware

    A new season of intramural basketball kicks off at the University of Delaware on Monday, February 23rd.  The courts are ready, the shattered backboard at the Little Bob has been replaced and the athletes are ready after a grueling winter session full of windsprints and weight room sessions.

    Luckily POWERade is back for another season as well.  Look for us this Monday at the Little Bob, giving out free POWERade and towels!

    One of the highlights for me is seeing the team names at the start of every season.  Theres always a few really funny or creative ones that stand out.  Here are some of the best from this year’s crop:

    -Colburn Cluster Function

    -Premature Shooters

    -KryptoNate

    -Shaqtus

    -Suede Sweetness

    Goodluck to all the teams this season and we will see you on Monday!
