Is stone station  traveling this year ??

Can't speak for the principals and partners, but the plan is to hit Farmville this weekend to support the ODAC.  If things play out according to seedings, I hope to be in Dover for the South Region Championship game in a few weeks.  Perhaps we will see you there (and in Salem)?

I hope all is well.  Give my best to the Mrs. 

And just for you......my wife calls the D3 playoffs the "Mount Union Invitational"

Hey oilcan,,I was at that game too,,some of your fans even came onto the Gulling center( weight training facility) to try to steal some recruits that were visiting. I was "working" that day or I would have started tailgating much sooner  !!!  and yes it was a cold day,,and it will be this weekend ,,break out the coldgear  !!

You did your work well that day!  I trust all is well with you and Mrs. beenhit2hard?  Perhaps we can visit in Salem, mid December?

And we always look forward to meeting new friends from around the country. I am probably the longest tenured poster(since the boards inception) other than nnasid and I can't tell you the number of friends and a few foes that I have made through here

Pa_wesleyfan,

First time in 3 years we don't get to travel to Dover to see the Wolverines in the playoffs, but wanted to extend good wishes for the game and safe travels to those making the trip.  It should be one of the better first round games!

Oh, and I heard good things about your son through the grapevine!  Congratulations!

Snake:  Would being on the short end of a 66-0 drubbing have slanted your views a little? 

I had an opportunity to visit Alliance a few years ago and jumped at the chance.

A few observations/confirmations for those making the trip this year....

Canton is the best place to stay...a 30 minute ride from MUC, unless the bus driver gets lost!

The pregame buffett is the way to go...boatloads of good food being consumed by a lot of folks wearing purple.

The visitors side is quite windy, and you do get to share the stands with some MUC faithful.  Some were obnoxious; most were fine and supporting their team.

The Purple Raiders are the real deal.  It was a pleasure to see excellence even though...

........getting spanked 66-0 makes for a long ride home.

Safe travels to all....enjoy the experience.

Next home series for BC is March 29th. Both Softball and Baseball are home that day.  Come on out and take in a game or four.

You up for a spring baseball tailgate?  Rumor has it there could be a tent, a grill and a cooler in attendance for the doubleheader(s)

Anyone see the name of Lycoming's new head coach?

Thank goodness D3football.com's news post had a photo of him. Eagle fans may have had heart attacks.

LOL! That will be a funny call for the Lyco game in September, "Coach Clark wins close one!" But which coach Clark will it be? Even bigger news is that the Lyco game may be the first BC football game I've missed in 3 years. I've been told I'm taking a trip to Cabo San Lucas with someone other than Jessica Simpson that weekend. Hopefully BC doesn't go into a slide so I won't receive the Romo treatment from the Stone Station gang when I get back! 

Bummer

Hard to argue with a trip to Cabo (Jessica Simpson or not), but doesn't the trip coordinator know that there are 42 other weeks to go on vacation

wesleydad and others,

Our friend Andrew Reed posted about his trip to Salem on his Road Games blog...I think he had a good time!  Enjoy and Happy Holidays to the Wesley faithful (and others!)

Helps to be competitive in the final game, to be sure.

Very interesting.  Listening to the podcast in the conversation between you guys, I was surprised that one of the folks mentioned that he wanted to vote MU as 3rd ranked (and was understandibly rebuffed by Keith).  I see this mentality in the BCS as well.  Whoever loses last gets burned the worst even if it lost to a higher ranked team than the team that eventually passes it in the rankings.  I don't understand the logic. 

-Ski

You used logic and BCS in the same post

Results of a common opponent a week apart gives good reason to consider UMHB as a viable #2 ahead of MUC.  I wouldn't make that call, but I can see the logic.  Plus, the same results, subsequent to the South Region final, put Wesley in a good light

....my inlaw family is great,but they do not know much about sports.  Looking forward to more Stone Station in   08 !!! It has been great !!

BH2H,

Missed you and Mrs. BH2H this year.  Next year, have your in-law family  visit my in-law family on Stagg weekend (sounds like they have a compatitble football IQ ) and we'll do the tailgate and the ballgame.

Have a safe holiday and good luck with your team in '08

...,,It is a great way to start game day !!

beenhit2hard,

It is always a pleasure to see you and the Mrs. (and to check out which championship ring will be on your finger).  Please pass along my thanks to Mrs. beenhit2hard for the cookies...they hit the spot on the ride home from DE!

I heard thru the grapevine that the Dali Llama is hosting a Christmas party in a couple weeks for hundreds of his closest friends.  I'm sure you'll be invited

All the best!

Pa_wesleyfan,

Congratulations on another great season for the Wesley Wolverines.  The team I saw play the last 3 weeks has as many top quality playmakers as I've seen on any D3 team.  I enjoyed hanging with you and your father!

wesleydad,

Much to be proud of; #14 is a heck of a talent!  The hospitality shown by you and your tailgate crew was outstanding and much appreciated.  Thanks for everything...hope to see you all in Salem.  Please pass along my thanks to the Bell's as well!

Dali Llama,

Thanks for the lift and the grub.  Another good playoff run to culminate at the Stagg on December 15.  I'm always ready when you need a shotgun rider.

    W&J Bracket  Final....If Wesley starts slowly like they did against Muhlenburg, UMHB won't wait and will probably make them pay. If Wesley starts off fast out of the blocks and scores early, they will put the Crusaders in a situation that doesn't work well for a running/option team-playing from behind. I see this one going against Wesley....I think Schatz is a good qb, but he is not quite the decision maker (yet) that Warrick was IMHO-. UMHB 28 Wesley 21
may they all come out healthy.......

BFKAW&JB (Bracket formerly known as W&J bracket)

Wesley has started slow the last 2 weeks, (behind in 1st quarter to H-SC and behind until a minute to go in 1st half to Muhlenburg) but in a span of the first 4 Wesley offensive plays in the 2nd half last week, the game was all but over. 

Haven't seen the Crusaders this year, however, they are a team purportedly as fast and as strong as Wesley on both sides of the football.  It should be a great South Region final.  I'll take a 4 OT thriller with someone having to convert a mandated 2 point conversion for the win.  Let's see if the lights work at the stadium!

...OilCan  Thank you again.

PA_wesleyfan,

You're welcome, however, I was just perpetuating a courtesy shown to our travelling crew by some kind Wesley folks.  You fellas have been very gracious hosts!

Looking forward to another South Region final in Dover this weekend.  With no dog in the hunt, I'm hoping for an exciting, high scoring, back and forth game that comes down to someone having to score or make a stop in the endzone opposite the score board (that's been our vantage point for watching) and may the best team win.

Safe travels to everyone
