Bumblin' B's

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

I think Lincoln is fine until VA Wesleyan; that's a tough match-up.

I think Bethany can pull it off and suprise Transy, so long as the awful PrAC schedule hasn't dulled their talents.

Villa Julie can win, but I don't know enough about Baruch and their home court advantage to call this one.

Maryville is toast.  They shouldn't even be in this thing the way they played down the stretch.

Ralph Turner & joe smith:

Thanks for showing Lincoln some "Love".  I have to agree with Hoops Fan, the Lincoln - Va. Wesleyan game (barring any upsets) will be a great one!


                           Go Lincoln University Lions

David Collinge:

Please add Lincoln to your list of "firsts".  This is the first time Lincoln is going to the "Big Dance", and to host two games with our first invitation adds to the Lion's historical season.

[David Collinge]

My list of "firsts?" 

If you are referring to my weekly post about the Top 25, it's just that--about the Top 25.  There's lots of "firsts" out there every week that escape my admittedly narrow focus.  For example, I'd bet there's other first-time participants in the tournament besides Lincoln (Baruch?  Villa Julie?  York NY?  I'm just guessing.)

Nevertheless, I extend my congratulations to Lincoln for this "first," and all of their other achievements in this historic season.

With the exception of Maryville, I think all the B's have a chance tonight.  It should be interesting to see how things pan out.

Gordon Mann:

Thanks for the info regarding the webcast of the Lincoln/CNU game tonight  .  I was thinking about going over to Baruch tonight, but now I have to check out my "favorite pool B team"  .  I hope we have the same results tonight we had when you webcasted the Lincoln Stockton game.  On behalf of all the Lincoln Alums across the country, Gordon, we thank you, Pat Coleman, and D3 Sports for the webcast.

I had, and expressed, a similar opinion a day or two ago.  But Maryville has opened an 18-point halftime lead on Trinity.  Boy, was I ever wrong about this game!

[David Collinge]

I don't really know anything about Villa Julie or Baruch, so I'll stay away from that one.  I expect Lincoln to beat CNU.  But if either Bethany or Maryville wins their games (especially Maryville), I'll be flabbergasted.  I think the Trinity/Maryville game shapes up as one of the biggest mismatches in the first round, along with Hope/WI Lutheran and Whitewater/DePauw.

Maryville 83, Trinity 64, final.

Well, I was right about one thing: it was a mismatch!

David, having eaten more than enough crow in my day, I've written a recipe book.

The two best suggestions: if accompanied by enough 'Old Crow', you'll never remember eating it; if coated with a garlicky batter, yum - tastes just like chicken!

Don't know whether or not April has any good kimchee and crow recipes!

I'm sure that she's baked a few crow cookies in her time.

Hey Hoops Fan:  Exactly what kind of toast is Maryville, anyway?

Apparently, 'wry' toast.

[njlincolnlion]

Lincoln 102 - Christopher Newport 96.  CNU played a heck of a game, and gave the Lions mall they wanted and then some.  Myrick finished with 42 pts. 9 assists.  Lincoln hosts Messiah tomorrow in round 2 as Lincoln wins it's first NCAA post season game.

                    Go Lincoln University Lions

And Villa Julie proved the haters wrong as well.

I bet they'll be dozens at Baruch tomorrow - plenty of good seats available!
