RBT TAILGATERS OF THE WEEK
Northern Colorado
Thumbs Up - The weather. Beutiful day. Lots of fun
Thumbs Down - Had a bunch of Notre Dame fans next to us. They are very anoying...why are they even here? Assholes. What the hell...And ofcourse the search continues still have not found a Notre Dame fan that actually went to Notre Dame - we are now 0 for 4,264. Probabaly IU basketball fans as well. Do thease people not know how shallow and worthless they are? They are the Spice Girls of football fans. I would be ashamed....
Oregon
Thumbs Up - No real rain...Toni made a hell of a beer run late...thousands of fantastic pipple
Thumbs Down - Srgt. Shultz was pretty useless.
CMU
Thumbs Up - Pauls folks! Zoe...thanks for the help. Nice day

Penn State
Thumbs Up - Ocktober fest! Always great food and beer. Really nice day. My favorite tailgate.
Thumbs Down - I guess if you are a buddy of the commandant parking director you can save spots and give yourself as much room as you want. When did this happen? We want the same spots everytime too. I must have missed the new parking regulations. Where do we sign up?
Minnesota (COWBOY DAY)
Thumbs Up - Great BBQ. Hats make us feel cool.
Thumbs Down - The ND fans again are just not ready to be left unsupervised yet. I have to beleive their parents would not be proud...too much stuf...too much alcohol...at to imature an age. First time in 17 years we left early do too other tailgaters. No Class! No self respect! No respect for anyone else! Ever see the King Of the Hill episode when hank says "Peggy we forgot to teach our boy shame."A sub species...nuff said.
Michigan (GUMBO DAY)
Thumbs Up - Niccole! I am not sure with is my favorite food day anymore. Gumbo and Ocktoberfest run neck and neck.
Thumbs Up - The parents of the ND children stepped up. Whith adult supervision and parking at least 100 yards from us we can stand it.
Thumbs Down - None. Great tailgate!
Indiana (red death chilli)
Thumbs Up - All great tailgate on a cold day
Thumbs Down - Do we get a partial refund because they let us in late? Really who makes the money for boiler sports? The golf team?? We will ask when it becomes time to renew the JPC membership!
RBT PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
Northern Colorado
Thumbs Up - Punt team. Kick off team...Tardy.
Thumbs Down - Painter is Painter...Offensive line is offensive line and so on. This team strugles with propper way to tackle.
Oregon
Thumbs Up - Kory Sheets..defense played hard..
Thumbs Down - Perhaps we shouldnt mention Painter here...he is exactly what we expect and have expected for 3 years. Still can't tackle.
CMU
Thumbs Up - Kory Sheets!
Thumbs Down - Jim Lanthrop...which team was more physical? STILL CANNOT TACKLE?!! Now the defense is ranked 103rd out of 119 division 1 teams.
Purdue @ Notre Dame
Thumbs Up - Kory Sheets! I am sorry that you ave. over 6 yards a carry and Tiller just wanted to throw the ball. Very sorry...you have our sympathy...keep your self healthy first...do what Tiller wants second.
Thumbs Down - Morgan Burke. I guess we did decide to do the "Gene Keady special victory lap and let the program bottom out" deal. Spack cannot coach tackling. 103rd out of 119 tells the TRUTH!
Purdue VS. Penn State
Thumbs Up - Joey Elliot. Kory Sheets.
Thumbs Down - Joe Tiller - we KNOW painter is bad! You are NOT fooling anyone! Defense is the defense...sigh
Purdue @ Ohio State
Thumbs Up - Ohio State is very bad in offense...but the defense played hard. Kory Sheets
Thumbs Down - Coaching...OK we know that Painter is a middle finger to us! You made your point!
Purdue @ Northwestern

2008 RBT Season Awards!
Tailgaters:
Toni & Niccole
Players:
Kory Sheets & Anthony Heygood
For tailgaters, we have to go with Niccole, she spent one of the last weekends she will have off cooking gumbo and tailgating, and Tony, he made one of the best beer runs I have seen in a while.The Theme tailgates also get a big thumbs up. I think they really liven things up.For the football team its kind of tough with the poor performance and all. Kory and Hegood are the only ones that come to mind for thumbs up. If I had to give an MVP it would be Kory for the scoring record and gutty performance in a couple of games when no one else seemed to show up.For thumbs down it has to go to Curtis. I know he lost a lot of WR's and an NFL caliber TE, but he played really bad in a couple of games, did his usual disappearing act in the big games, and just did not play like a senoir until the season was over. After seeing ND finish 6-6 and Minnesota finish 7-5, its obvious we got beat down by a couple of mediocre teams.2007 RBT AWARDS

Thumbs Down - Joe Tiller, Brock Spack, Lou Anarumo, Terrell Williams, Mark Hagen. Jeezus Christ. Next year when ever Notre Dame wants a first down it will throw a 10 yard out or a screen! Want me to say it again??? Jeezus Christ. Next year when ever Notre Dame wants a first down it will throw a 10 yard out or a screen! It looked like ZERO improvement since the ISU game. Really! The KEY is to make an adjustment BEFORE you lose!!!
Purdue @ Iowa
Thumbs Down - Joe Tiller, Brock Spack, Lou Anarumo, Terrell Williams, Mark Hagen. Laying down and letting another team walk all over you reminds us of last year. Its not to late, either MAN UP or PEE down the side of your leg. We are pointing the finger right at you!

Purdue VS. Wisconsin
Thumbs Up - Offensive line and Defensive line
Thumbs Down - Painter was poor. Dorein Bryant - if you are going to pitch fits on the side line when you don't get the ball you have to make plays on the field when you do. Joe Tiller - don't be a wuss, go for it on 4th and 1.

Purdue VS. Indiana
Thumbs Up - Jake Standerford won the game with his hustle.
Thumbs Down - Joe Tiller for not giving the hook to Painter. I have never seen so many recievers open in a game before. Anyother QB plays and it's a blowout. This defense is still bad.
Purdue @ Hawaii
Thumbs Up - Punting ave @ 49.5 - recievers made some great plays. Painter Hot
Thumbs Down - Defense - Punt returns... well Hawaii only punted once. Painter Cold. Joe Tiller hates Hawaii.

RBT Tailgaters of the year awards for 2005:
Jerk - M. Burke : Caters program to fair weather fans, build up preseason hype to satisfy them, then turns on the diehards who kept this program alive during the dark years when things got tough. Way to go Morgan. Coach - Whoever is married to that hot chick who was out collecting money for the coaches wives charity. Three kids and she still looked like she could fit into her old cheerleader outfit.Tailgaters of the Year - R.B.T....R.B.T. We lost our spot due to bureaucratic incompetence, got stuck in Rowe's rut twice, yet we persevered to have another great tailgate season.

Rowe Brothers Tailgate Player of the year for 2005:
Nominees:
Offense - M. Turner : New line mates, new offense, rotating QB's, yet Purdue rushes better than in the past couple of years and only gives up 8 sacks. Although Painter looks like he can run the offense the way Tiller wants it run, the three teams he beat were a combined 1-15 the last five games of the season, so lets not get too excited just yet.Defense - R. Ninkovich : Intensity really picked up after he moved into starting line up and it showed all across the field.Special Teams - D. Brytus : Anybody but B. Jones. After one great year, he looked like someone who should be playing for Butler the last two.Disappointment - R. Edwards : Doesn't produce to level of preseason hype, loses his job to Ninkovich, defense improves, then bolts to NFL?.2005 RBT player of the year: Tie between - Matt Turner, Mike Otto, Jordan Grimes, Robbie Powell, and Sean Sester and Nickovitch. Congrats fellows.

Purdue VS. Michigan - Parking people are still doin good
Purdue VS. Ohio State - Turkey Ruben turns around the season
Purdue VS IU - All of us. Except those People who are Unable to Tailgate Serously.
RBT - PLAYER OF THE GAME -
Purdue VS. Syracuse - Offensive Line - Defensive line. Orton was hardly bothered by the Orange pass rush, the backs had some good holes. Purdue put good heat on the 'cuse QB's and held Reyes to 31 yards on 12 caries. Nod to Paul Long who started for an injured Rodgers, nice pick to stop a Orange drive.
Purdue VS. Ball State - Kyle Orton - 23 of 26 (85%) for 329 yards and 5 TDs. We have a hard time doing that on NCAA 2005 video game on the XBOX.
Purdue @ Illinois - Kyle Orton - 35 of 50 for 366 yards and 4 TDs. Taylor Stubblefield played well as he has all year and Brandon Jones was a force.
Purdue @ Notre Dame - Kyle Orton - 21 of 31 for 385 yards for 4 TDs. Anthony Spencer was in the ND backfield all day. Jerome Brooks returned a kick off 101 yards for a TD. Kudos to Wallman for representing RBT @ South Bend, perhaps I was the jinx all these years. Great Job by the coaching staff to keep the offensive play book open all game!
Purdue @ Penn State - Defense!!! Ben Jones!! Dorien Bryant and Kyle Ingram!.
Purdue VS. Wisconsin - Brent Grover - Brandon Villeriel
Purdue VS. Michigan - Dave Brytus - punted 10 times for a 43.4 average.
Purdue @ Northwestern - Charles Davis we guess. We really didnt want to give it to anyone.
Purdue @ Iowa - Defense - During the losing streak the D has been great except for 1 drive per game. The O has not helped them at all.
Purdue VS. Ohio State - Brian Hickman - Kyle Orton - Kyle Ingram - Dave Brytus - Brandon Kirsh - Brandon Jones - Turkey Ruben
Purdue VS IU - Lets give it to Taylor Stubblefield. Others guys played better Saturday, but the game of NCAA football has been going on for a long, long time and no one has caught more passes then Taylor. No one.
Purdue VS ASU - Dave Brytus - Evidently the punting phase is the ONLY part Purdue practiced going into the bowl game.
ROWE BROTHERS TAILGATE PLAYER OF THE YEAR 2004

2) Kyle Orton - Choke VS. Wisconsin

Purdue VS. Arizona - BLACK UNIFORMS!! DUH!!
Purdue VS. Notre Dame - Craig Terril, with a nod to Ben Jones. (could Ben be making a run at RBT player of the year?)
Purdue VS. Illinois - The offensive line. Run for 324 yards on 67 carries and dominate the time of possession 39:19 to 20:25 means you are far more physical up front then the other team.
Purdue VS. Penn State - Anthony Chambers sets the table and Brandon Jones punches out the Lion D. A nod to J. Reeves, who we belive is the fastest Boilermaker for his awesome hustle on the Chambers punt return for a TD.
Purdue @ Wisconsin - Kile Orton pitches a perfect game and Ben Jones kicks the Boilers into first place in the Big Ten.
Purdue @ Michigan - Ben Slayton - 10 Punts. The rest of the Boilers just peed down the side of their leg, as usual when playing at michigan.
Purdue VS. Northwestern - Gilbert Gardener was all over the field with 9 tackels - 2 for losses of 11 yards and 2 fumble recoveries. Craig Terril had 3 tackles for loss and 2 sacks.

Purdue @ Ohio State - All the linebackers played well, all the mistakes were in the kicking game and on offense.
Purdue @ IU - Jerod Void, I really can't think of another player who showed up. Nick Pilipauskis did a nice job filling in at the center spot.
Purdue VS UGA - Craig Terril - Ben Jones. Craig palyed hard from the get go, Ben made every field goal we needed.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR 2003.
