It's a special day in the Sports Forum - Happy Birthday Condem!

[happyiowan]

I know he will hate this (and thus it's my secret revenge). Happy Birthday and happy big-ass college bowl pool thread. I suspect Condem will begin working on it later tonight.

1. The Big FIVE-OH!!1!!

:woohoo:

Happy Birthday, Condem!

[Condem]

5. Thanks, mad!!

I suppose you're getting close to the Masters Division?

[madinmaryland]

6. ...

Six months, Dude!

[joeybee12]

2. Happy, Happy Birthday!!!!

I want you to know I am using my posts sparingly these days as I am now 6 away from 30,000 and want #30K to be momentous! But I had to post and wish you a Happy Birthday!!!!!!

:toast: :party: :bounce:

[Condem]

8. Man, joey. I don't know what to tell you about #30,000.

These are tough times. My sister lost her job today after 23 years. She's about 50. She'll have a very tough time getting hired at her age. But, good cheer tonight! How 'bout, Fuck Sarah Palin!!

[enuegii]

3. 50? I thought I saw once where happy said you were 80...

Happy Birthday, Condem!

[Condem]

9. Thanks, enuegii.

I'm going to disappear for a while to to the Bowl deal.

[Upton]

4. Happy Birthday Condem..

Too bad the Big Ten had such a down year. At least compared to the Pac-10. Maybe you'll do better in the bowl season..but I wouldn't count on it.

[Condem]

10. I like Whisky and Ohio State, Upton.

After that, I'm clueless.

[Upton]

21. Well I'm counting on Wisconsin..

to send TCU and their backers a message. C'mon Badgers don't let me down.

[El Supremo]

37. That wil ll be a tall order.

The Horned Frogs are favored.

[flvegan]

7. Happy birthday, Condem!

[Condem]

11. Thanks, flvegan.

Is it cold as hell in FLA?

[flvegan]

36. Lordy, yes.

33 degrees here tonight, they say.

[El Supremo]

12. Happy Birthday! I got you a card from something you Iowans know a lot about >>

[Condem]

14. Thanks, El!!

Just want you to know, I appreciate the shit out of you being here. Sincerely.

[happyiowan]

16. Damn it El!!

You know what I want. I can't believe you're keeping it for yourself. I told Condem that for his birthday I was giving him a very special lawn ornament.

[El Supremo]

38. Believe me. If I owned it I'd give it to you.

[1gobluedem]

13. Welcome to the 50s, Condem!

I don't think I can duplicate the heartwarming sentiment of Upton's post so I'll just say Go Big Ten, let's have a great bowl season!

Enjoy your day!

[Condem]

15. Where ya' been?

We have to talk RichRod. Staying or going?

[1gobluedem]

17. Well, lately, he's been sobbing in public and more or less begging for his job

Not a Michigan man, in my opinion. But, if Harbaugh is staying at Stanford I don't know who we could get who could turn things around fast.

It's just so awful what he's done to our program.

[happyiowan]

19. Grown men crying in public....

is hardly what the football crowd wants!! I've instructed Condem to take his Ritalin and to commence the big-ass bowl thread. Hope you'll join. He'll return after he types up his pool. (And he types like the wind in the doldrums.)

[Auggie]

18. Happy Birthday...

you damn kid

:toast:

[Condem]

25. Thanks, Auggie!!

How are the folks?

[Auggie]

39. Dad is improving...

Thanks for asking.

[JonLP24]

20. Happy birthday Condem!!!!!!

I hope Iowa wins their bowl game for your BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!

[Condem]

26. Depends on which Iowa team shows up, Jon.

Got the best b-day present, though. A Hawkeye ring made of sterling silver with a 14 kt Tiger Hawk.

[trumad]

22. Word

[Condem]

28. Tru. The future of the 'Canes.

Any guesses?

[trumad]

33. The UConn guy---

but honestly---I have no idea.

[Condem]

34. He's up for every fucking job!!

Edsall. Lost to Michigan, yet playing in a BCS Bowl. Our OC is available. Ken O'Keefe. Look him up!! Please.

[hughee99]

23. Happy Birthday, and good luck with the bowls. n/t

[Condem]

[Capt. America]

53. Mazel Tov Condem. I wish for you something the Illini could not do, a victory over Mizzou.

Vote Big Ten in 2010!

(however, expect losses from Northwestern and Illini)

[Condem]

No DJK. That's for sure.

[brendan120678]

55. Happy (Belated) Birthday Condem!!

You were born the day after me.

Well, actually, you're 50 I see. So therefore I was born many (many many many) years after you on the day before your birthday!
Hah.

[Condem]

56. Thanks, Brendan.

Mucho appreciated!
