But there are a lot of other very good players in ODAC that get over looked time and time again because the team they play on isn't as good as RMC. Which ws my point about if Silva was somewhere else. She would still prob be the best player in the league but she wouldn't get the attention because she wouoldn't be on the 1st place team. The situation she is in has put her so high up in peoples minds that she can do no wrong.

But then you've answered your own question.  You were wondering why people are in awe of her.  You admitted she was the best overall player in the league and that she gets more attention because she plays on a good team.  Is it unsual for a player in that circumstance to be so highly regarded, rightly or wrongly?

JJ is the best player in the ACC but if you get on any acc chat room board, fans from other teams will down play him. Here everyone is so in love with her that they will down play their teams to talk about how great she is. That is what i don't get. If you are a RMC fan then heck yeah enjoy it, if not then respect her and her abilties but stop telling her how good she is. No wonder when "your" team plays them they are already defeated. I mean if your own fans don't think you can win then how are you supposed to think you can win. I know many players in the ODAC read these posts so if I play for EMU and I see an royals fan talking about what a great player Silva is and how good RMC is and how she is the best player in the ODAC and we should all enjoy watching her then already in my mind i am beat.

I don't see too many RMC fans talking about how good other player s in the conference are

caroline wesley just put 26 points (10/12 overall, 6-6   from FT), 12 boards, 3 blocks, and 1 steal on the #15 RMC Yellow Jackets. 'Nuff Said.

Not to diminish a fine performance, but 18 of Wesley points and all of her rebounds were in the second half when the game was already out of hand with RMC ahead by as many as 31 pts.  But certainly a nice performance against a good team.

Will you be at RMC tomorrow night?

that fact may even make the performance look better. she did all of that (minus 8 points) in the second half where she palyed 17 minutes. 18 points, 12 boards, 3 blocks, and 1 steal in 17 minutes is pretty darn good. I wasnt at the game, but she had 2 fouls and only 9 minutes in the first half, and scored 8 points. She surely would have had over 30 had she not gotten into foul trouble!

actually i wont, but i will be going to bridgewater on saturday

Agreed, a nice performance, few players have done so well against RMC.

HAHA so if someone else does it in a 30 point blow out it "diminishes the performance" Now that is TRULEY NUFF SAID! Thanks for proving every point I have made the past two weeks 78RMC

You give me too much credit.  It would take someone much smarter than I to prove you right.

  Why can't we all admit Silva has had the best overall career of any ODAC women's player and hope BC and RMC will meet in the ODAC finals so Kinder and Silva can settle who is the 2006 MVP on the court?
  Kinder is healthy and showing the talent she had at WVU in Morgantown before some very painful off court things happened. Just be civil and hope BC and RMC meet in the ODAC finals so this discussion can finally be answered one way or the other.

Odacbballfan:

You get some "love" when you admit your allegiance to VWC.  It's obvious, have no shame, let yourself go.....it's ok!

PS:  Not hating on you because I am a VWC fan

valleybballfan

Odacbballfan: I agree with justafan02, I think your allegiance falls to VWC. I
                       have been trying to figure this one out, and I have the same
                       assumption that justafan02 has, you're a Marlin fan. I also think
                       you're right, your controversial posts have produced a lot of
                       conversation on this board.

I am very offended.  Just because Coleman doesn't agree with a post - he reveals a person's IP?  What's that all about?  Also,  a healthy Marsha Kinder for 4 years would make mince meat of Silva.
