hi. um, billikiens are, kind of, sort of, exactly, in no way possible, in third place. We are, by far, the greatest team possible because of our blue spirit. I mean, come on, purple or yellow? those aren’t even pretty colors. then you have bluuueeeee(: So, um, Billikens for life, man! yeah! I’m out(: besides, week four, the purple cows ah GOIN’ DOWN(; and shouldn’t we be in second place and not third? yeah, thought so, thanks((((:

so here is my vision of a perfect win by the purple cows…. we totally show up with only 5 people on our team, 2 of which are crippled, but we still decide with this disadvantage to make sure that none of us are wearing any team colors so that we dont pick up any of those garb points. the cometitions soon roll by and the other teams have inched closer,but we aren”t scared. i send my brazilian friend eduardo who is approximately 4 feet 11 inches tall to compete in the dunk contest. the other teams expect nothing of him as he looks simply goofy dressed as an oompa loompa. but eduardo’s 720 between the legs jam on the 10 foot hoop simply seperates us from the rest and he decides to go rambo 3 on the competition and bring in his fellow rebels for the final battle. so now the purple cows along with 16 new brazilian refugees take the cornhole tourney with absolute ease and dan tells us that we have won the competition and to go home and have a nice night, but do we stop??? of course not. we then proceed to set artificial fire to the leader of every rival team’s cars to prove the point of our revlolution and eduardo makes the ultimate stand and sacrafices himself for the good of his team by leading the cops away from the warehouse with a prank call to an ice cream truck robbery 2 streets down.Dan proceeds to try and solve things by talking to us, but when he comes outside all he finds is the head of a formerly living cow super glued to the top of his vehichle. he is baffled. the next day eduardo is seen on the news surrounded by 50 cop cars in the middle of the target parking lot riding a cow wearing a purple cape. the purple cows go on to recieve national attention and eduardo receives his freedom via community service and 2 years of house arrest, but its all good. this was the plan all along

March 23rd, 2010 at 4:20 pm
Let’s see, the purple cows have been in first since the first week. Who’s going to change that……. The billikens, the bannana slugs, the hilltopers( not even a real mascot). I mean seriously? We are going to win. By the way, EVERYONE WEAR PURPLE!
March 23rd, 2010 at 4:31 pm
By the way, it’s ok that dave didn’t mention me and zach. It’s because he knows that we were the ones leading the Brazilian refugees and the savage cows to victory!

March 25th, 2010 at 2:43 pm
Dave why bother the ridiculously long comment/story? You are only trying to prolong the inevitable….the toppling of the Purple Cows from their shaky pedestal by the Billikens. Sorry you wasted your time.

Red is an awesome color, it’s so bright and welcoming, so Hilltoppers should win!
March 25th, 2010 at 3:22 pm
Red is also a good color on guys and girls, so it’s not as creepy when you see them wearing it… *cough* PURPLE COWS! *cough*
March 25th, 2010 at 3:23 pm
Come on Hilltoppers! We can beat ‘em!
March 25th, 2010 at 3:29 pm
Red should win… we were totally ingenious with our mascot!
March 25th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
