PBR left the boards last year after a disagreement.

Pat Coleman · September 02, 2011, 06:31:06 PM

That's not true -- he's posted over the summer and looks like he's logged in within the past week or so.

Knightstalker · September 02, 2011, 07:47:23 PM

Ah, I thought he had left the boards, just lurking. That is good, creepy but good.

Whew, so glad that Pbr is still with us! Hey Knightstalker, we're all "creepy" & kind a "strange" in our own ways

! As my Dear Dad used to say "Takes all kinds, Bum, Takes all kinds". Why he called me "bum" is beyond me

! That being said - GO AGGIES!!!

kate · September 03, 2011, 03:51:01 PM

The 2011 Aggies - NOT for the faint of heart!!! Just won in OT beating a very good Muhlenberg team, 10 to 9!!! Congrats to them!!!

Wowser! That was an exciting ending!

An interesting day in the MAC on opening weekend...close wins by Lyco and DVC, and a painfully close loss for Wilkes

For as disappointing as the last few minutes of regulation and overtime were for the Colonels faithful, the team showed some real flashes of brilliance on Saturday. While a few opportunities to seal the deal on sacks didn't come through, I thought the Wilkes D did a great job of pressuring Susquehanna in the second half. On offense, the Colonels were able to run the ball consistently, and the combination of George/Bernstein to Eagles may be as good as any pass/catch combo in the league this season.

Saturday's loss was a tough one, especially for those of us who were around for some great triumphs by the Colonels against Susquehanna in the "old" 10-team MAC. But lots to build on and take away for a big week on the road.

Hope all is well with you. It's a loss but not in conference.

Was fascinated by the Widener score last weekend. Is Widener that much improved, or is Moravian rather weak?

Don't know much about Moravian, but I saw Widener scrimmage Wesley. The quarterback looked pretty solid and they have some talented receivers. O-Line looked about the same as previous years (haven't seen them since 2007 though.) They had one nice drive through the air but I don't think they got any points out of it. The Wesley offense pretty much had their way with the defense during "game" portion. I think they could contend especially if DelVal and Lyco continue to struggle on offense.

Hello Gordon! Great job with the Aggie/Mules game last Saturday! The end was incredible! As to your "lurkers" & "posters" comment, just want to tell the lurkers, and You know who you are

, please start posting again. Thanks, again, Gordon for the exciting call of the game at the last second. Good luck with Washington & Jefferson this week, Del Val. They did a number on Juniata 40 to 0, right? - yikes

gordonmann · September 09, 2011, 11:28:15 PM

Thanks, Kate. I'm here in Washington, PA now preparing for the game while sitting in a Red Roof Inn. Let no one say Division III football is not glamorous.

Gordon - You are living the life........you could be in a motel where you bring your own sheets and pay by the hour

Serious questions:

1. Is there any video that you are aware of for last week's DVC vs. Muhlenberg game?

2. I see that the Aggies game has a live video feed today. Why isn't it available for all Aggies games and what would it take from a technology standpoint and an expense standpoint? I know a few alumns who would write the check if it's solely about the cost.

Thanks and have a great day in Washington, PA.
