As children of the Midwest, we know all too well the damages that negative momentum can cause. A few lay-offs turn into an entire factory closing, a few abandoned houses turn a once thriving neighborhood into a blighted community. Sometimes those of us that are passionate about the MAC feel the same way about our sports. We see once full stands sparsely populated, and the panic sets in. We worry that our beloved conference is headed the same direction as the local Ford plant.
Personally, I like to dream up crazy schemes, far outside the box, that will save the day.
