Hey, I'm equal opportunity!

Further, I hate the idea of someone mistaking this dude, with all of his syntax, grammar and punctuation issues, for the real Deanthony Bowden.

Correct. I can't imagine that with the Mac/Jake relationship that there won't be some kind of continuance of the series. I envision a mixture of games between home and neutral sites (DSM? Cedar Rapids?)

If using proper grammar and punctuation makes us elitist, I can live with that.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least. I know that Creighton will want to maintain as much exposure in the state of Iowa as possible for recruiting purposes, if nothing else.

It's all good Bro. I understand we all have pet peeves, and my grammar is pretty poor I admit. I tend to type the way I talk, without thinking about the proper english of it.

BTW, when I went on about why some Creighton fans come across wrong, I did not mean that as a direct attack on you. The grammar thing just reminded me of all the times I have thought certain Creighton fans have acted like they are better than others because of things that just come across a little "elitist" , or at least not very humble or down to earth. And I have kept my mouth shut because I didn't want to cut down my fellow Jays fans but, like you with my grammar, I just couldn't take it any longer. I really just like to speak my mind on here without having to work hard on proper English, cause I do enough working hard at my job and everything else.

And I should probably change my name, I don't think anyone on here thinks I'm actually DeAnthony, I never thought about that when making my screen name, but I guess it's possible someone could mistake me for being him. I hope they don't, I'm just a fan of Creighton ever since I was young in the early 90's, that loves the teams Creighton has put on the floor. I was going to games at the Civic when there was only about 3,000 Creighton fans. I'm sure you were one of those too. Just certain Jays fans, not most of them, do come across a little bit , idk, spoiled maybe. And it bothers me cause it isn't a reflection of the program we have, which values people from all walks of life, and treats everyone the same. Again, I couldn't give you the names of the fans who are like this, I just remember the things that were said and the way they have come across at times.

Creighton and UNI will not be playing again. I don't think either coach really wanted to play the other in the Valley.

That's actually a good point. I hadn't thought of it that way. It seems logical that Jake and Mac would prefer not to play each other unless required to do so.

More likely they would play in the secret pre-season scrimmage. That way they can get together and coach against each other, without having the stakes of a W or L on the record.

I see Creighton leading the way for a MVC vs big east challenge.
