Get some pants on...

By Matthew
I love to take a werid headline of the week and talk about so here
In Ultimate Frisbee, it's ultimately not cool to go without pants. So said a student board that governs club sports at the University of Oregon when it ended a highly-ranked team's season after five players shed their pants and underwear April 11 during sectional play at Oregon State University in Corvallis.

The squad had already been on probation since November for serving alcohol to minors and making way too much noise at a party to end last season, resulting in fines and citations. Now the team, known as EGO (Eugene Gentlemen's Organization) is crying foul.

"We put on the longest shirts we had," pleaded player Kevin Minderhout. "We have some jerseys that are pretty long."


Ultimate Frisbee, which is akin to flag football and is popular as a club sport at numerous universities and high schools, has rules but no referees. Players are responsible for their own foul calls and are to resolve their own disputes.

The sport is non-contact. Points are scored by completing a catch into the opponents' end zone on a court measuring 40 by 70 yards. The Oregon team was considered No. 3 in the nation.

During the April 11 incident, one team went without shirts and five on the other side went without pants and underwear.

Well Okay they have nothing else better to do.

Other story: What is the first part of Pandemic "pan" short for panic? Where they trying to make you panic over the H1N1 VIRUS.

The swine flu virus that has frightened the world is beginning to look a little less ominous. New York City officials reported Friday that the swine flu still has not spread beyond a few schools. In Mexico, very few relatives of flu victims seem to have caught the virus.

One flu expert says there's no reason to believe the new virus is a more serious strain than seasonal flu. And a federal health official said the new flu virus doesn't appear to have genes that made the 1918 pandemic flu strain so deadly. But making people panic is not the best way to stop a disease of you are panic breathing you can suck that virus into you because you will be going HUH HUH.

Now here is a triva question

Since we have just ended the "FIRST100DAYS" Period or 4 mothes and 10 days to be more persise. Well in an avearge 4 year term how may days is that for a president?

Think about it you have 20 Seconds.

The answer is 1,460 days celebrate that. See you Sunday
