The "BLUE SHOVEL" Support Thread

[prowler]

I say Blue-

You cut me I don't bleed red, I bleed FAU Blue. The blue of the Atlantic Ocean, the same ocean that's in our name. The same ocean that you'll be able to see from the upper deck of our own campus stadium.

GO OWLS!

Very nicely done, but what is the message here?

[FAUFBL]

Great pic !!

Would love to see our NEWLY APPROVED stadium on the picture too

I do like the idea of red and blue but we should not define our colors by the other school's in the SBC - we won't be there long !!

The BLUE shovel looks pretty awesome - great job prowler !!! I can see it now - the BLUE shovel will be showing up at EVERY FAU event, on EVERY FAU picture.

Bury the Competition and the FAU symbol for Innovation and change !!

GO OWLS !

It says's, come to FAU for the Vacation of your life, and while you're there get a first class education. Come be a part of Owl Country, here on the shores of The Atlantic ! Bleed Owl Blue !!!

FAUFBL, if you check the Teams actual site and the current roster, it has updated stats (weights) on most players. Hope that helps, and yes I hope we have Lot's of surprises in store for everybody this year.

Also just another update in the Sun Sentinel tonight on the Shovel Movement from D-Owl as follows. So come on everybody lets all "Just Do It" !!

Evening Owl Country !!

It's a beautiful day/night in Owl Country, things are progressing very nicely. We just might be able to get more accomplished than we originally hoped for by MTSU (9/1). We will have some definite answers in a few days, and yes we can get it all done. Just because you can't see it, or read about it daily, believe me it's going on daily !!

I see where several nu-bees have contributed, I/we personally and collectively thank you all. We also welcome all those who peak in from time to time, and ask you all to join in on the fun. Jump on board we have many more stops now, last stop New Orleans ! Hoot Hoot !! All Aboard ! We need more donations/contributions as we have a lot going on, and it might just be, a true Florida Snowball, Owl Fans. Stand up and HOOT !

OK I need some help/commitments, as follows. I need the various groups/entities to help distribute flyer's and promote the Football Team and "The Owls Shovel Brigade" (if you will), for us this season. Both on Campus and off. I mean the Prowlers, Rowdy's, Goonies, Cheerleaders, Dance Team, Band, everybody who is involved. Simply pass out some flyer's, spread the word type thing, have fun with it, be creative with it. If anyone here is associated with any or all of those groups, would you please pass on my request to them, or better yet ask them to send me "D-Owl" an e-mail at [e-mail] so we can hopefully get the details worked out.

I want to send out a Thank You to you all, and especially to the originally crew/few who helped get this Bird off the ground and in the air. Now we need everybody to help make this Owl Soar !!

Hey Prowler..I hope you don't mind. I took a little liberty and used your image as my link for the Shovel Brigade on Owlcoholics. I added the stadium to the image to better include the topic. Great stuff guys!

No problem Owlc. Glad you could use it. It's all for the cause. Looks great!

It's Owls Time!

Anyone have any updates on the BLUE SHOVEL movement ( Bytor can you change the name of the thread ) ?

Ted said the checks are coming in. How many shovels are being bought ?

The Attendance meter on the FAU Official Athletic Website is rising. Let's get to the top !! Howard's Hellraisers - you have a new crop of Owls to get excited about NCAA athletics. Thanks for your help and get those kids to the games waving their SHOVELS !!

[faualum]

Yes, I have an update.

Two of the guys that got this whole thing rolling are feuding on the SS blog.

Not sure what to make of it or whats going to happen next.


update:

looks like Ted deleted all of the pissing match posts and left a note to keep the quarrels off the blog.

[faudiehard]

That is unfortunate...However, I am sure it can just be chalked up to being under a lot of pressure and a tight time line.
