Some of you may have already seen this...

PER ESPN'S NFL INSIDER

• Brett Elliott: Finally, one small school prospect worth noting is Linfield quarterback Brett Elliott, who worked out at Portland State's pro day on March 17. Elliott, who was awarded the Gagliardi Trophy as the outstanding football player in NCAA Division III last season, is considered a fringe late-round prospect in this year's quarterback class. He did not impress in the 40-yard dash (5.11 and 5.17) or agility drills (4.59 short shuttle and 7.68 three-cone), but he did display adequate arm strength and impressive accuracy during his passing session.

My apologies everyone.  I know I'm supposed to be retired, but he just set it up so nicely.

Nice season Scots.

Mr Rock,

You might want to consult your team captain, probably Mr. Tanney or Mr. Zigler before posting on here.  I am guessing your team has a policy about guys who are currently playing, coming on here and posting messages.  Perhaps Monmouth doesn't, or perhaps you didn't get the memo.  I am guessing, only guessing, Mr. Tanney doesn't need his freshman o-lineman stroking his ego on the net.  Just a thought, perhaps I'm wrong.

I know that I for one am grateful the freshman o-lineman from Monmouth is open for questions, regarding what, I am not sure.  If I think of anything, I'll get back to you.  I also know that if I was an upperclassman and some freshman was making statements like "watching film even worried me" I would be looking for soap and a sock.

Is this a press conference?

Well done Gomer!

Respectfully,

A Prick

Good season Scots.

Get back on track next season Knights.

Consider me retired again.  Some of the younger guys can do this, because I don't have time to keep this up.

I am aware it is a petty post, but I can't have a guy who refers to himself as a former alum of an institution telling me I have my foot in my mouth.

Purtill to hang a half a hundy on Monmouth next season.  Enjoy it while you can Skirts.

Just for fun:

a·lum·nus ( P ) n. pl. a·lum·ni (-n)
A male graduate or former student of a school, college, or university.

So you used to be an alumnus to Monmouth?
Are you a "former alum" because they took your degree away for making simple comments like the one you just did?

Virtually everyone on this board is an alumnus to an MWC school, so virtually everyone on here no longer has a career as a Knight, Skirt, Red Duck, Tree, or any other team.

It is amazing that I can make a stronger arguement with my "foot in my mouth" than you can with your big giant "former alum" brain.  Go Scots!  Keep turning out winners like this guy.

No one is cheering against them.

But let's get a few things straight.

You're not my rival if I knock you on your a$$ almost every season and I slip and fall on my own a$$ for a single season.  Beat SNC on a regular basis and we'll start talking rivalry.

Spare us the dynasty bs.  Come talk to us when you've put together six of these bad boys in a row or even three for that matter and we'll start talking dynasty.  SNC has won ten MWC titles since it entered the conference twenty years ago.  Since 1953, this is only the fourth time Monmouth has managed to take the conference title.  Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

With respect to THIS YEAR they played well enough to beat SNC fair and square, capitalizing on the SND letting down its gaurd, and deserve to walk away with this year's title.  I am certain everyone who played in the MWC wants them to perform well as it is a direct reflection of their own play.

Call me childish, but I would be lying if I said I didn't want to see Monmouth draw an SJU or UWW.  I'm sorry, but I would like for another team to see what we've been up against almost every year trying to better the program.  I think our friends on LFC's 2002 team found out it is a different brand of football when you leave the conference and play into the later months of November.

And it was 283 yards in about three full quarters.

O'Grady ran for his record in 2000 Meacher.  That was the same year we held our "conference rivals" to one play on our side of the 50 yard line.

Boys, I am trying to retire from the board in peace, but you make comments about being married and I have to step in and defend myself.

I've been reading, and agree that the Monmouth posters are boring, unimaginative, and all around blah.  "Rah Rah, our team is winning!  Go Team!, Monmouth is #1"
Boys, have all those years of finishing second or worse given you second rate imaginations?

Regarding Triner - Sorry Meacher, I've gotta go against you on this one.  You know how I feel about the guy after last year when he got "excited" against LAX in the first round.  It cost us not only the first round of the playoffs, but the first round against a WIAC team.  I do not know Triner off the field, but some guys have come on here to defend him, so he can't be all that bad, however, he has represented himself as a selfish player on the field.  Anything else Meacher, I've got your back, this one is a little touchy with me.

If anyone asks, I retired of my own free will, I got tired of correcting people, work is crazy ... and perhaps because some polish linebacker, we'll simply refer to as ski, yelled at me.  Polish people in general scare me.

Marriage is so cool.   ::)

Big Pat, I got yelled at for bringing this up last year, but I was a week too early last year.  Are we going to see an around the region for the midwest, prior to Saturday?

See what happens when you leave the job up to a guy from Ripon.  Hey, at least Harrison Ford went there.  The cookies are good too.

Well that is crap.  I was hoping to see Schussler in the Green and Gold again.  That is a disappointment.  Those two would make a substantial contribution to any program, but it won't be enough to lift LU over a program like SNC.  I am interested to see what Howard does at LU.  Those of you who played for him speak very highly of him.
#14
Where the hell is Schussler?  Did he eat a live cow or something?  I knew his coming back was too good to be true.  Damn it.
