Hostility, that sums up these past few posts. MACr's gotta give it to Rowan, they found what it takes to win, and do it year in and year out. Wilkes is still a pretty darn good team, just sounds as if they made some mistakes. All you can do now is hope that Rowan does well, so that you can say that your team lost to a team that was top 2, top 4 or whatever. Call it luck, call it grit, call it whatever, Rowan won, and obviously has what it takes to be in the position they are. Kudos.

Fear the Ram

The Profs beat an 8-0 Cortland team and now a 10-0 Wilkes team ... 2 highly ranked teams and you say its Luck!

You're an idiot!   'Nuff said!

Even bad teams get lucky sometimes RU.

WUMAC

Not much to say to you but ..... DITTO ..... the above post.

Oh, by the way, you're an IDIOT also   More than 'Nuff said!

hmmm lets see cortland was overrated this year as RPI proved...everyone has been saying that Hobart was not as good as their record...and wilkes coaches gave Rowan the game... why would you possibly call a play that could fumble while running down the clock

Judging from the boxscore it looks as though it might have been a botched snap....

Also, the only reason why Cortland was "overrated" was because they were without their QB's.  If Smith plays the entire season Cortland is in the NCAA's.  Also, Cortland has a history of packing it in while in the ECAC's (not taking anything away from RPI) when playing a good team.

Winners find a way to win, losers find a way to lose, and fans make excuses.

Wilkes is a good team, and will get better. I think the Red Hawks pick you up next year. We owe you one from a few years back. Should be fun next year.

RU did nothing but fall on the ball and get lucky they did not cause the fumble. When you have a fumble on the Center QB exchange, with 1:10 left its called luck for Rowan and a stupid mistake for WU. and there is no excuses in that statement its all pure facts.

You want to talk facts .... lets get at it.  If not for 2 stupid play calls by the RU coaches, it would have been 21 zip at the half.  RU pushed Wilkes around the whole 1st half.  Wilkes came out fired up in the 3rd and early 4th and were playing well.  Wilkes faded with about 6-7 minutes to go and started making mistakes.

You're right, the fumble was a QB/center exchange problem, you know, a mistake.  The high snap in the 1st quarter by RU on their 1st possession while they were going in to score was, you know, a mistake.  The high snap on the extra point attempting to tie the game by RU was, you know, a mistake.

What's your point?  Mistakes happen in football.  Bottom line is, you lost ....accept it.  If not, get to the grocery store and buy some Kleenex!  Wow, talk about a cry baby.

Now let's forget about you and talk about the game (who cares about you anyway?) 

Wilkes played a very inspired game and showed that they belonged there.  Difference was .... they made their mistakes at a more critical time than RU made their mistakes.

Oh, WUMAC, if you want to think that RU sucks and that you got screwed, be my guest.  Whatever makes you feel better

Stuperman

I hope that Orihel sees the picture, maybe he'll have a few surprises for you on Saturday .... then you can cry like WUMAC.

But, Stuperman, you're right, RU does, in fact, suck.  They are only lucky.  Keep thinking that until next Saturday at about 4 PM.

I hope that the SJF coaches are as myopic as their fans!...unfortunately, I don't think they will be

Oh, by the way, Mister Uninformed Stuperman, the fumble was a muffed QB/center exchange .... didn't happen on a bad play call!

[profs_fan]

I must be getting old.  Cortland fans, Hobart fans and Wilks fans were all class acts.  Yesterday at the Wilks field the only thing that bothered me was the wooden bleaches and Spot-a-Johns.  I don't like wooden planks that go down when you step on them and absolutely cannot us a spot-a-pot.

There were Wilks fans next to me and in back of me.  Great guys with a few sons with them.  We all agreed on the calls of the ref's and we agreed that a Rowan D-back got away with holding on a Wilks receiver's Jersey.

After Rowan muffed the point after I really had to go.  Had to used the spot-a-pot.......too many diet Cokes. 

When I came out of the spot-a-pot the Rowan defensive players on the field were all pointing that they recovered a fumbled.  Next thing that happens is Rowan gets a TD and completed the two point conversion.

Last week I had lunch with another Rowan staff person at a Chinese place.
My fortune cookie said "To have success in life you must know where the goal posts are."  Rowan gets a field goal with 12 seconds left in the game to beat Hobart.

Will be going up to St. John Fisher on Friday.  Will be looking for a Chinese place to eat and hope that St. John Fisher has spot-a-pots but does not have wooden planks in the bleachers.

In all seriousness, the Wilks players, coaches and fans are class acts and good sportspersons.  Rowan has added Wilks to our schedule next year.  We don't have spot-a-pots but the ladies room line lasts beyond half time. 
Be careful with excessive liquids.  We have wooden planks in the bleachers as of right now.

While I understand your sentiments towards Superman, I wouldn't be so quick to say things like "keep thinking that until next saturday at 4"... That has been the tune the last two teams were singing heading into Saturday against Fisher as well.

Also, if Orihel does in fact see that picture, will he be more or less likely to throw multiple picks vs. the Fisher secondary?

[superman57]

Profs fan...PK Changs in Eastview mall exit 27 or 28 on 490 is a good chineese place...and no the bleachers are almunimum...though from what I'm hearing it might be hard to find a seat period on saturday... and RU fan grow up....I was saying that Rowan should not be celebrating that win because it was giftwraped for them...not saying they didn't deserve to win because you have to take all the oppurtunity's that come...stop posting like an a$$

[boobyhasgameyo]

I think it's called PF Changs but I could be wrong

You the a$$ that posted the picture and said that everyone that RU plays is over rated .... not me!

I have the highest respect for SJF (the team) ....  They wouldn't be where they are if they didn't deserve it .... you know, like Hobart, Cortland, Wilkes ...... and Rowan. 

If you showed a bit of respect, you wouldn't have people jumping down your throat.

You're the only SJF fan that I have had the extreme pleasure to encounter at this point.  I'll reserve my opinion on the fans until some rational posters chime in.

By the way, dope ..... its PF Chang's.

I have no question that SJF will be prepared on Saturday.  See my reply to Stuperman regarding my opinion of the SJF team.  Give respect and you get respect.  SJF wouldn't be where they are if they didn't deserve it.   Don't confuse a post aimed at a myopic Stuperman as an opinion of the team and/or coaches. 

If you research my posts since I've been on PP, I think you would be hard pressed to find a post where I denegrated opposing teams or individual players .... irrational opposing fans ....hell Yes! 8)

Regarding Orihel, you'll have to deal with him on Saturday.

See, my opinion of SJF fans is changing already .... you're only about 1/2 as bad as Stuperman!
