FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[drucker]

If you people knew anything about mac you would know that the is not really the SID. Plus there is more things important at mac than sports. Like most colleges we are trying to improve the campus and academics.

I still believe that you go to college to get a degree and not just play sports. Who cares if our website is not state of the art and up to date on everything. Also we all know mac is not that good this year, but they actually are playing and not quitting or mouthing off. I know that Mac has one thing to do this year, and that is to be Blackburn because we have like a 12 or 13 game win streak against them, give or take a year, that is a good thing for us.

Also why are you all shocked that mac with a lot of freshman lost and lost bad? I would love to know if another team with that many freshman starting or rotating in won the conference title?

[NCC_alum62]

Damn, 93 players.

Is that the biggest roster in the IBC?

Benedictine has 115 (at least going into camp they had 115)

[Gomer Pyle]

Gomer.....I just looked at the Mac roster for this year after you pointed out that it is now posted.  Yes, the numbers go to #94 however I also noticed that not every number is used, with several numbers skipped so when you actually count the names, I came up with 53

   Good eye!   I didn`t notice that. Good way to "pad" the numbers though.
    Just MacMurray being MacMurray.

but he said Larry Parillos pic is still in the roster...does someone else have his number and they put his picture there?

Sorry for the mis-understanding.  The picture of Larry Pirollo is not "in" the roster but rather posted on their, " The Offical web-site of MacMurray
  College Football."  Scroll down on opening page. 

  Fartcus: It`s   PIROLLO not PARILLO.   Gomer-1   Believer, minus 1

  Drucker: If it`s not "really" the SID then who is it.
   You are dead on why you say, getting a degree is job one.
    If you were a player I`m sure you`d want a site to be proud of.It looks
   like you left out the word "that is to be (beat) Blackburn." If your hanging your hat on beating Blackburn for the um-teenth time,  who has a record of 14-66 over the last 8 years then good luck on getting the "W."
   Why are some shocked Mac lost and lost bad?  That loss( by 65 points) was the worst  defeat in MacMurray football history, that`s why!   
   Your last sentence, I`d don`t think You or Mac has to worry about winning a conference title any time soon. With or with-out freshmen.
    Just filling in some open ended comments.

Duh. That's not padding the numbers, that's the way football is. You can't just run out and number people 1-53.

[Gomer Pyle]

Fartcus:
   Sorry. "Believers" is what I choose to call all who really believe in the 
    CU-C football program.  Fans, are people who sit in the stands. Followers, are Benny Hinn groupies. 
  As far as this saturdays selection goes, look at the record from 1999 thru 2006.
   Chicago is 33-36 over-all during that span, while CU-C is 7-72.   Who has been more consistent?  Atleast Chicago has played .500 ball, well almost.
   Percentages carry the day.  The Fat Lady sings the Chicago fight song.
   But you can still.....believe.

There's a row of yellow icons to choose from that may help you get that point across.

   Pat : Not to be-labor the point but your comment got me to wondering.    
   I  found this information on Fact Monster, College Code For Football  Numbers.
      Numbers:
        1-49:   QB`s,  RB`s,  DB`s,  some WR`s and LBers.
       50-59:   O and D linemen and LBers.
       60-69:   O   and D linemen.
       70-79:   O  and  D linemen
       80-89:   WR`s and TEs
       90-99:   Defensive Ends and Tackles, linemen.
    Now, I`ve got a team of 99 players. No limit on roster size (positions)
   mind you.
    Using all the numbers(1-99) on all the players it looks like I can run the table ,sequentially.  Number 100 is the mascot. 
    You are correct in thinking I`ve got a lot of "O and"D" people, never
    have to many of those. 
   " You just can`t run out and number people 1-53."  Oh, yes I can.
     Caveat:  The above was/is intended  to a provoke a smile. No negative
      retort will be accepted.   
     Always enjoy the inter-action.

1.)  Considering the majority of the student body has consistently comprised of the athletes, the athletic department better be important to administration!

2.)  As for the campus, if you call painting and other routine maintenance projects "improvments," then that place is in a lot worse shape than I thought.

3.)  Please don't tell me you're still a player on the team?  If the team's stretch goal is to beat Blackburn, then hang it up and sell all the equipment.  The players and coaches should be out there competing to win EVERY game, whether they are a bunch of freshmen and sophomores or not.  

What you just said is absolutely ridiculous...

That may explain the lack of a running game, since your team would have just four offensive linemen. After you number your linemen 50, 51, 52 and 53, then what?

In college you can have duplicate number they just can't be on the field at the same time, also I am not sure on the specifics, but in college the only numbers that you really have to worry about are for the o-lineman everyone else there is a little lee-way

[drucker]

That is not the only game that they want to win. They are out there competing every game to win. But beating blackburn is something they should want to do.

And the SID is part time and does stuff like pictures for local places as well.

And even though the campus is made up of mostly athletes, the new administration is trying to make the campus look nicer to incoming students. The athletic fields are looking better because the coaches now are actually taking a great deal of care to make the fields look better.

MacMurray college is in a rebuilding process right now in more ways than one. All the sports programs have new coaches with the exception of a few. The campus needs repairs and they are making them.



And one more thing none of you have told me about a team that lost so many key players and a coaching staff, that has come back the next year and had a good year?
