I stop by and try and pick up some information from time to time.
But, most of the posting is bitching and moaning and pot shots. When Williams was on top with the now retired Wes coach I guess they sucked and now that they are losing, I should admire them?
Way too much bitterness and way too little football.
It takes away from the site.

BRAVO BOWDOIN!

The Ultimate gesture......

Let's TRY and be simply thankful and lose the strident egos and cynicism.

BRAVO BOWDOIN!!

The ultimate gesture, ultimate right thing to do!

Another wide and deep indication that the school is rudderless, adrift, without direction and a little nasty

Actually, this whole Bowdoin incident and its ripple affects seems to indicate a lack of leadership. With an AD under some pressure and a new Football Coach yet hired and a yet un-installed new President, it seems that this could have been handled differently. Less impactfully.

By the way, the Bowdoin story is in the Portland Press Herald and on Maine Public Radio.

Now we are getting really far afield, BUT, what the heck.

I wonder what the kids, all the kids, at Bowdoin conclude from actions such as those taken 'against' the Hockey and Lacrosse teams/cultures? What do the administrators think they are actually TEACHING these kids and what are the kids actually LEARNING? Obviously their parents (at least some) are groaning and biting their tongues at the very least. If your kids are still under your influence, they are potentially going to feel like victims.

Whose attention are the administrators trying to awaken?

I hope that my sarcasm was apparent.
As I have pointed out in the past, many of my family members are Tufts grads. Always proud of any NESCAC national champion.
It is a double edged sword that I will run on if football went into the D3 playoffs, but F@#$%^g 9 games is not too much to ask for!

Trinity football banquet tonight! Fill the car with food and essentials like new socks....

How about some indignation that Tufts SOCCER team won the national D3 title after playing 22 games all over this great country of ours.

American football in the NESCAC just does not have that certain panache that turns the President's heads.

I am soooooooooo mad that Tufts cares more about Futbol than Football!

But those are cool injuries Frank. Just use leather helmets without a face mask.

Bold, decisive and fearless....

I like your approach and your confidence. Some times it takes more courage to be yourself.

I'm with ya Frank.

Think of it possibly as a Williams Amherst thing. Frank is Frank. We all need to accept that this forum is not transparent, no?

Must be a good HS game near by, Frank. I appreciate big rivalries more when I am an outsider.
