Through all that gibberish I think u were trying to insult me. LOL... You don't know **** so don't critique my views and opinion because they are just that, MY views and opinions and my rights allow me to express them.  Plus unlike you I highly doubt Lake Erie's team is reading my posts and getting upset about them.   You're right I am a "bully" because i call a spade a spade.  Lake Erie sucked so I said they sucked.  Plus I actually played ball I wasn't just the mommy of some bum so yeah i do think i can express my opinions.

Plus aren't you a little OLD to be bickering on a basketball website when you have nothing to do with the game of basketball or never have?

And my mom would never call herself berlychick thats more the name of a transvestite.

berlychick,
put a sock in it, joker doesn't need somebody else's mom to defend him, or the lake Erie team doesn't need you to defend them either.  Sports is a game and part of the game is, when you win you are praised and when you lose you are ridiculed, so oh well.  And i didn't listen or go to the game either but when you lose by 36 points it's obvious to me that 100% effort wasn't put forth.  The only time teams get beat that bad is when (a) they aren't talented enough (which isn't the case here or (b) they give up before or some point during the game (which is probably what happened). So when a team is criticized for losing by 36 points when people believed in them, let them defend themselves.

I hate to kick a team when they are down but...11 points at the half WOW. I too thought Lake Erie would come out and at least give a respectable showing but...nope.  And Joker was right Wittenberg didn't dominate down low (well maybe they did rebounds 32-17 ) but then again they didn't need to. And Reggie D2 D1 Richardson did put up 15 but all 15 came in scrub time AKA the second had, he didn't do a damn thing when the game was on the line which wasn't very long.  So while we AMCC fans (which includes myself) were looking for a step toward national respectability, we slipped fell down the stairs and ended up on our arsses.  So hey better luck next year when maybe we can put up a real contender (for a first round win that is). 

In all honesty congrats to LE on a great season and congrats to Wittenberg on a good ol fashion backyard beating and good luck the rest of the way. 

One parting shot Big Jokes, did Richardson and Williams bring their A+++ games like "they always do"? I Think Not.  Good career Reg and hey the cupboards aren't bare they have Williams and the "unstoppable" Harris comin back so maybe next year is their year.

they will get the ball down low and they will score down low, you dont win 25 games in the regular season playing in a pretty good (Wittenberg, Wooster, and Ohio Weslleyan are better than good) league while their big men shot 56 and 65% from the field respectively.  In my opinion the Tigers are gonna beat em up down low, but if Lake Eries guards bring their A++ games they do have a chance to make it interesting, if richardson and williams dont bring it they will get blown out.

If I had to guess I would say you seriously are a former player that can't deal with the fact that you can not compete any longer....therefore i would go with either Nate Malensek or Mike Rustifo....

Who gives a damn about Kamillo Rosenthal (Munich, Germany)  but.....

He did average about 8.5 pts/per game his freshman/soph season, then he took a year off (maybe because he studies aboard, that means overseas) came back and avg about 9.5 pts/per his junior year, meanwhile he avg about 4 reb a game over his career.

In his senior year of high school he played for Catholic H.S andd averaged 25 pts/per, 7 reb/per and shot 55% from the field.

As I was saying who gives a damn about Kamillo Rosenthal...

Any more tests you got for me there buddy

My prediction..............

the bigjoker is a current player

that has never studied a bit of german culture or literature

There is by no means a town named Wittenburg at least not in Germany

Aber beweisen Sie mich falsch, weil ich 100 Prozent Deutsch bin

stickin up for your team ("going to war" is the stupiest thing i have ever heard someone say about a basketball game especially in this day when thousands of US troops have died in a real war) for your school is one thing but you are arguing with people trying to defend the storm as well, a_s_s clown

One guy spelled wittenberg wrong, and if ya read his posts he spelled other much easier words wrong as well.  Common oppenets don't mean s_h_i_t.  That was the second game of the year. And this is division 3 While teams like Cal tech or even medaille might not be on certain teams levels, give our conference champs a little bit of respect, their tough out-of-conference schedule deserves at least that.

Unstoppable force , and thats all i can say about that. Might be a leader but i dont know because i dont play for them.  What sickness makes you suck for a whole season, cause i dont ever want to catch that.

BOKNOWSBALL- you can not use the Behrend game as a measuring stick for Lake Erie's season, the game meant absolutely nothing to Lake Erie (they already locked up the number one seed in the conference tourney)
Scotsfan- Are you really telling us that Wittenberg plays down to the level of their competition at any situation,  this is the NCAA tourney if they can't bring out their A+++++++ game in the tournament, why play at all?  Plus LE is no slouch (and I'm not a LE fan) AMCC fan yes, but LE has played a pretty tough out of conference schedule and not done that bad.
thebigjoker- come on fam, did we really needed the head of the Richardson fan club to make a post before the game?  We are all saying he's a great player, and by the way HS, Junior College, and D3 are not every level of basketball.  NAIA, D2, D1 would have something to say about it.  But I am rooting for the storm, to bring some respect to the AMCC and i think win or lose they are going to do just that.  But dont forget while they can do "Come from behind victories, grinding it out, or just beating up on their opponents; Lake Erie does it all. "  they also lose by a ton, blow huge leads, and lose their composure as well, so yeah i guess they do "DO IT ALL"

In defense of upb88 in his recent spat with the almighty David Collinge , I have to say that I believe Lake Erie has at least a punchers chance against Wittenberg for one simple reason, guards usually dictate tournament play,
                      Combined
Richardson/Williams              Steffes/Denbow
190 assists                            94 assists
25.8 pts/per                           7.0 pts/per

and while nobody can argue the size that Wittenberg has upfront, you can't ignore the athleticism and depth that Lake Erie presents as well.  And if your telling me that lake Erie doesn't have a chance why is it that Wittenberg recently lost to Wabash a team that usually starts no one over 6'5"(they did start Coffey against Witt but he played a limited role with Zimmer off the bench playing a bit more productive). Size is nice but it doesn't mean that your dominance is guaranteed, plus Wittenberg turns the ball over just as much as their opponents do, which is very unusual occurrence for a team that only lost three games all year and playing a slow down offense. I don't know what will happen because I haven't seen Wittenberg play anymore this year than David Collinge has seen Lake Erie play, I think it will be a pretty good game and this is the tourney, weirder things have happened in history David, haven't they?

This board is a joke.....all year long i listened to all the bradford fans and hilbert hawk backers run their mouths about their supposed knowledge of the conference or about the game of basketball overall. Now that its playoff time and 1. UPB is bye-bye and 2. Hilbert players are not available for comments.........the board isn't saying a damn thing, sad sad sad
Here is my words without wisdom:
1st team
Cooper
Buscynski
Richardson
Vander Sluis-reinard wasnt the "man" if ya saw more than two games
McNeil-team blows but hey the kid is a scoring machine
Other awards
POY
Cooper or Richardson (either or is fine by me)
LVPOY(Least valuable player of the year)
Stewart-Smith Ethan (14ppg last year to a whopping 7.7) way to progress throughout your career
COYLake Erie first year man
WCOY(worst coach of the year)
Dick from Medaille two-year 4-46 medaille record speaks for itself, plus someone said earlier"at least they are out of the basement" WRONG

I am rooting for the Hawks in the playoffs but who really cares.....
it will probaly be LE and PSB in the finals and then the winner will lose in the first round of the NCAA's
PS SEAN KENNEY zip it up, no body gives a rat's a_s_s about your words of wisdom. The current hilbert players don't and we sure don't either.

So Pitt Brad loses the tiebreaker even if frostburg loses and they win today? 

And I know its just your opinion but why put Franklin on the first team instead of Mcneil (they both play on bad bad teams) but i would take Mcneil because of his dynamic scoring ability (avg over forty the last 3 games) and he did avg 26.5 in conference and shot a respectable 44%

I know you r all getting a kick out of this because I call him a gun, McChucker, a hog, a terrible teammate, etc.  throughout the year but if their coach can get some help there they have a chance of doin something in the next couple years. 

PS- I still think hes a gun but a pretty damn good one

Thanks for the McNeil update; medaille is out of the basement for now (still got 4 conference games left), Mavs just don't have the players to compete.  Recruiting there is horrendous; their coach isn't from the area and Buff St. is right up the road, which equals double trouble for Mavs, coach Jacob did a good job recruiting players when he was there, although their personalities where often in question at least there was some success on the court. I know some of you guys are thinking Coach DICK has only been there a couple of years give him a chance.  Coach deGrandpre has only been at Hilbert a couple of years as well.  Coach deGrandpre is from the area and does a hell of a job recruiting, plus he runs a better system, that's why Hilbert contends and Medaille mediocrity is not ending any times in the near future.

As far as the league itself I love to see the parity I think its great, but oddly enough the league overall is 30-37 out of conference and that includes the Mount whipping of some church league teams, but saying that in think if PSB, LE or UPG( I say "if" because you never know if one of the lower seeds get hot in the tourney, because i dont think were getting any at large bids) make it to the tourney any of them could win a game or maybe even two. End of the season should be fun.

what happened to mcneil, anyone know

Well the panthers are alive, the day couln't have worked out any better for them, they win, frostburg and mount lose, and i know some think i'm a mcneil hater, but i'm not, but why does a guy play 38 minutes in a game that they are down 41-15 at half time?(scrub time is a gun's best friend) Drew Secker came off the bench and tossed in 20 in 14 minutes and 9 shots.   But congrats to UPB the season begins now. And congrats to PSA i knew it would come.
