No offense taken.

I can't take smack talk serious from a program I consider beneath IC. 

Besides, NNR has extra axes to grind with JoseQ because the high school team he coaches can't beat JQV's alma mater.

+k to the Union faithful.

NNR is now 2-0 on the season for our high school team my good man and top 10 in state... weee what is your record???

Union 1-0 and ranked soon ...learn to love it

NNR: Union will not be ranked.. i think they started too low.

you my friend have failed

Perhaps Union should refuse to play in the post season if an alumnus thinks that the team might lose or suffer a letdown.     [/end sarcasm]

Despite your efforts to convince me otherwise, I remain skeptical that any team wants to win less than its opponents.

Why branch that off my response??  I'm not the one suggesting what you stated.  I actually agree with you.

I haven't yet ruled on your earlier objection, counselor.  Sit down. 

Obviously, YOU are not the alumnus advocating on behalf of those who don't want to play football.  Of course we agree.  99 out of every 100 football players agree with you.  I don't understand why that 100th player--including Union's once-starting tailback--wouldn't want to play.

When I said "Despite your efforts to convince me otherwise," I was using the "royal you."

Back then, Union was pretty accustomed to going to the NCAA's (a Stagg Bowl loss followed by 2 OT losses to Ithaca).  If you are on the fence and hopeful of an NCAA bid, can't you see why an ECAC bid would be a letdown?  I voted to play the game, but I can certainly see how getting an invite to an ECAC game on Sunday night when you were hoping for an invite to the big dance is a letdown.

Keep in mind, back then there were no AQ's....16 bids, pretty much all at large...

As a union football alum who played in the NCAA's my freshman year followed by ECAC's my sophmore year all NNR can say is damn it was great to play another game. My sophmore year was a "letdown" because we didn't make the NCAA's after we were shocked by Springfield. Ben Gilbert, Matt LaPorta, George Beebe, George Kanderakis, Mike Visconti, Justin Forrester, Mike Rosenthal, Mike Ranfone...the senior year of some of Union's biggest names in history (check the books) ruined by 1 lousy game of fumbling... The ECAC win over Hartwick felt amazing. It was a chance to play together one more time and carry a trophy. No one plans on playing for an ECAC game but if given the chance and being left out of the NCAA's you're damn right you take it and this was a team very capable of making a Stagg Bowl run...and that is no joke...as long as Mt. Union didn't meet us in a round before it

Frank... trying to track down my dback coach from 2000-2002 but can't recall the spelling of his name... Coach Scott Rhyne, Rhen, ryne??? any clue or memory of this... any clue where he went

Congrats NNR.  I am sure you'll be very proud when he straps it up for the Plant Panthers in 15 years.

we both know a Jefferson Coach would never allow that

Quote from: Rt Rev J.H. Hobart on October 11, 2008, 07:09:07 PM
The Rev is beside himself with anger and frustration.

First, my apologies to Union fans, but this is the worst team I have ever seen come out of your school.  #10 is the most amazing athlete, and everyother kid on that field should thank him for the honor of playing with him, and maybe offer to clean his dorm room or polish his shoes.

Second, The Rev is currently considering mass murder.  If every Statesman player and coach would die slowly and painfully from huge gaping gunshot wounds, the Rev's day would be better.  Who the "F" goes for field goals when you are 4 and 1?  and who let that d-bag miss three field goal in one half without him getting a set of cleats up his yin-yang?

Third, Just like last year RPI ran the same play up and down the field and Hobart was helpless, Union did that in the second half with #10.  Union was virtually powerless against short passes to #5, so what did Hobart do?  Try to run it up the middle with #23, who was completely shutdown by Union D.  Hey, guys, I have an idea! Let's run plays that fail, and when we find plays that work, let's not use those.  Let's keep those "secret weapons" just for when we are in a jam.  So run it up the middle even though  you've been stuffed all day.  Seriously, whoever called plays for Hobart today needs to take my donation to the SAA and use it to help fund his suicide.

The Rev takes this very personally.  He spends a lot of moola to fly from AZ to NY, it is very time consuming, and all night The Rev was getting squished by a fat guy with armpit odor.  This is the FOURTH year in a row that Hobart has lost when The Rev goes out of his way to show up for games.  The Rev is tired of being let down.  Does this mean the Rev ought only to go to games against USMMA?  Lame.

Seriously, The Rev is so angry now.  Hobart should have blown the doors off of Union in the first half, but instead handed them the keys to the Boz.  The Rev should have burnt it down so no other fans will have to witness the disgrace the Rev saw today.  Hey, at least we'll have turf.  I wonder if out shi**y performance will leave skid marks.

The Rev is so P.O.'d right now that he hopes Hobart can't even get into the ECACs.

Debate Moderator:  Mr. Rossi, would you like to respond?

Mr. Rossi:  Why yes.  First, I'd like to say hi to all the 3rd grade students at Greenwood Elementary School for watching this debate -- extra credit for all of you!  Now, let me tell you about a true MAVERICK -- no, not John McCain, but the Union College Fighting Dutchmen football team.  You see, candidates like the Rev will have you believe that the Dutchmen did not win the game -- but that the Statesmen lost the game.  Well, I'd beg to differ with the Rev's position, as Hobart had the ball in the Union red zone, sometimes based on Union mistakes, six times in the first half.  Now, the Rev forgets in his analysis that somebody had to stop Hobart from scoring touchdowns in four of those occasions.  Yes, missed field goals were not positives for Hobart, but Union's defense did a lot of work, including with a goalline stand.  To ignore that Union's defense helped keep Union in the game in the first half would be like advocating a position short of full energy independence for our country.

Debate Moderator:  Your time is up Mr. Rossi...

Mr. Rossi:  I just have one more point to make -- while the Dutchmen team in 2008 may not be its strongest at its surface currently -- it's been improving week to week noticably.  I made that point last week, as I said the Dutchmen were two plays short of being 3-1 (now 4-1).  Today, they worked to make sure the odd bounces went their way -- so, Rev, I hope that you'll adopt a policy of CHANGE -- and CHANGE your view that Union didn't win the game short of Coney's effort.  As Coach Audino said in our postgame today, "We became a team today."  The defense and the offense worked at different points of the game to ensure that.  Yes, they both still need much improvement, but Rome wasn't built in a day.  God bless America, and congrats to the Dutchmen.

Debate Moderator:  Thank you, Mr. Rossi.  Rev, any rebuttal?

FRANK MAKES NNR LAUGH... Rev..really??? You lost to a team who doesn't deserve to play football except for 1 player... Sad little man

and NNR must point out #10 Chris "ice cream" Coney is a Florida boy... We breathe, eat and sleep football... woooo... Union does a great job of recruiting outside the North.
