It is a unique tradition and raises a modest amount of money for the program. Besides, the new B1G ad still shows the balloons rising from the stadium and we'd hate to be billed for a redo.

Tradition lives on and no intelligent person believes this is destroying the earth. Get rid of liberals not our balloons.

I am extremely concerned that some redwood owl or a spoon-billed sandpiper my try to eat the balloons and die. This is unacceptable. This may tarnish Big Red forever. I need a diet Squirt.

Maybe start a new tradition with the new coach and new team. Opponents have been complaining about the balloons possibly not being biodegradable so let's just change things and start something new

We have already broken the tradition. Let it lie and bring it back only for certain games.

No. Celebrating a single touchdown as if it's some sort of win? It's a fun idea but it is littering and there should be other ways to celebrate the first touchdown. Dannen is just sucking up to the fans here. He wouldn't do this if he had to pick up the spent balloons.

Key to this is half the turnovers from last year. If we can take good care of the ball we win between 8-10 this year. Sloppy ball play we still probably get to 6 based on the gravy schedule.

We are overriding the thinking process of an excellent quarterback. That is part of the game and we don't need "robots" taking orders in the helmets. They should reverse this rule and let the players play the game... not the coaches.

I much prefer the use of backup quarterbacks signaling in plays as if they're directing traffic at a street bazar somewhere in Delhi.
