Continuing comments from the other Beta thread so I can quit scrolling down:
Cutters HOF - 2007-2011 Who should actually get the honor:
alex bishop - yes david caughlin- yes sasha land - yes, yes paul sigfusson - no. clayton feldman - yes erik hamilton - yes eric young - yes michael schroeder - no. kevin depasse - no. zachary lusk - fukk no. samuel harbison - joke?
Again I think you misread his comment about HoF. He suggested putting the entire team in not necessarily each as individuals. It won't happen because everyone is jealous of their success but it's worth recognizing that accomplishment of five-? because it probably won't be done again. Maybe in the women's race but only like three teams do anything there
I get the idea putting those teams in the HOF, but in reality not every rider on each of those teams pulled his own weight. With the exception of 2008.
Is there a serious recommendation to put a 5 year run of the Cutters in the HOF? The individuals who have been mentioned above should be in without a doubt (Young, Clayton, Land, etc) but the team? Really? Patches? Hank? Harbison? In the words of Chris Carter, C'mon Mannnn!
Great performances that have lead to 5 straight titles, no doubt. But no HOF for the team like that.
Not to downplay what the Cutters have done because it is remarkable when you consider no other team has even gotten two wins in a decade on the new track. But talking about entire teams going in is too much. I'd agree with the comment of Young, Feldman and Land.
Why all the hate for cutters? How about we all team up and get on another team? Like a Pi Kapps? They're cute and cuddly and qualify 1 in every 7 years on average?
Why is anyone even talking about Stuart? Word on the street is that Nick Sapp is the fastest Delt this year. Look for him to go sub 2:17 in ITT's and show you all how to actually ride a bike.
Sapp sucks. He rode for the bakehouse team last summer and if he's been riding since he was 15 everyone should point and laugh at him because he isnt very strong given he's been riding for 4 years.
Anyone who is or knows a good doctor who can help with blood transfusions? We were able to get the blood out and into bags (safely hidden in our frat cooler at optimal temperature) The problem is getting it back in the body. We hear if you put too much in at one time, its death. Someone please help us! If you can help, drop an envelope with a card in it that has a phone number to reach you at and place it in pit box 20 tied to the fence. On the outside of the envelope simply write, Edgar Allen Poe so we know.
Anon: 1:54; and unless I'm mistaken you were a lap down when bringing the Cutters back. Why is gods name would you be proud of that? Oh yeah - because you're the same team that carried your rider off the track for getting second place. No need to explain any further.

CUTTERS
Beta is so sexy. Too bad they are going to end up covered in cinders and get those pretty faces dirty like last year.
Love,

SNU would start talking 'ish.
Put your legs were your typing skills are.
Speaking of SNU....found this oldie but goodie the other day.

Who's the idiot training with 404's?
Looks like fun! Little 500 2012!!!!!
Definitely will be. Bummed that I'll be watching on TV this year:(
That video gets worse every time I see it. And that must be Fred training on Zipps.

your right. But this video does!
Remember when snu talked all that shit last year and couldn't back it up?
It would be a fluke if they are even top 10 in the race this year.
Contador is banned, who's next?? Hank??
rage.

michael schroeder - no.
kevin depasse - no.
zachary lusk - fukk no.
samuel harbison - joke?
I dont agree with all of your comments, but I think you are right that more Cutters in the last few years should be HOF.
The race is months away. Lets talk fantasy little 5.
Who are the hottest riders this year? What about an all time hottness Hall of Fame?
That would be something worth fighting over.
jenna cerone (KD)
taylor sovinski (Gamma Phi)
Tom Schwoegler (Theta)
sonja arnesen (gamma phi)
Todd Neville (LiSiHi)
oops, wrong teamm

Why Hamilton but not Sigfusson? 2 versus 1
Is the other post capped at 200? It says 206 comments but it stops at 200.
I get the idea putting those teams in the HOF, but in reality not every rider on each of those teams pulled his own weight. With the exception of 2008.
seems like it is capped
the other post is capped, oh no!
I just capped a ho!!!

all-time hotness = cutters

The other one to consider is Fowler.
if you win the practice race or practice start you should be HOF
What about if you win quals?

Green is so much a cooler color to have than yellow anyways. Girls see green as go! Yellow is just seen as someone who loves golden showers. . .
Add Clayton to the Hottness HOF!!!

Pikes or Pi Kapps? Both are legit when it comes to the bench press.
SNU owns bench press!
SNU lift weight!
SNU squat weight!
SNU rules weight!
SNUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Bench press on your front porch. #notHotHOF
RJ Stuart is blood doping this year. Seriously someone test him. You heard it here first.
Let's drive this back to PS3. Tom - can you bring back annonymous posting?
Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Hansel, Tom, Todd (and your five aliases)? Who's with me.
Blood doping is a very serious accusation, do you have any proof?
yeah...because dick has enough money to do that... NOT!
That pussy is handed everything from his parents. He went to private school
I have a stool sample as proof!
stool sample from when you pulled out?
Why is anyone even talking about Stuart? Word on the street is that Nick Sapp is the fastest Delt this year. Look for him to go sub 2:17 in ITT's and show you all how to actually ride a bike.
Is he one of their new rookies?
Sapp is an ex TMT rider that CB recruited when he was 15. Sadly, TMT folded, but he still got the full ride scholarship to come to IU.
yet he's still a nobody...
yep never heard of him, my money is on stuart and sharp for this years ITT winner
Sapp sucks. He rode for the bakehouse team last summer and if he's been riding since he was 15 everyone should point and laugh at him because he isnt very strong given he's been riding for 4 years.
he's still a cat 5, isn't he?
Give the kid a break. Let him prove himself on the track.
Well you don't improve that much in terms of 8 months so if it's that drastic maybe that whole team is doping and dickferd is sharing the wealth

Wait, what? Delts really dope?
Call Riccardo Ricco.
if delts doped, then why did they still get smoked last year?
Just like the Phi Delts couldn't count laps, the Delts couldn't count days. They ended up not reinserting the blood until Sunday.......
Delts got smoked?
I clearly remember them dragging the Cutters back to the field and still finishing top 5.
Ahhhhhh Kelly Clarkson!
Anon: 1:54; and unless I'm mistaken you were a lap down when bringing the Cutters back. Why is gods name would you be proud of that? Oh yeah - because you're the same team that carried your rider off the track for getting second place. No need to explain any further.
Why can't we be proud of 2nd place? We were the 1st place losers. Shit got cray, just the way we like it.
you said it yourself, LOSER. no reason to be proud of that
Cutters towed them back to only being one lap down instead of two. Jagerbombs for everyone let's rage
Haha. They towed cutters back! Where we're you if you didn't notice that.
I wouldn't say anyone towed anyone back. There were a slew of different riders out on the track during the unlapping so to say one team towed the other back is stupid. It's a race if the delts were dumb enough to allow them to sit on then so be it and touché to the cutters because it worked and is probably why they win every year if its that easy to manipulate people. Until someone deliberately takes it to them they will probably continue to do the same too. Rather than bitching about who towed who maybe they should think about how to better their own chances or keep basking in the limelight of top ten finishes and watching the cutters keep hoisting the Borg-Warner every year.
jager bombs for days... btw its icy outside so dont blog and drive
