CJ,

Of course, CJ Sr. didn't really ignore me.....he just paid more attention to the refs.

Leo,

Of course, you are correct. Any close game can come down to one call or non-call. But they sure bailed Kofi out on a sure 35 second clock violation with a mystery reach-in call with 1 second on the clock.  That was the heftier of the trio on that call and ih was a Kings man all the way last night.

CJ,

Regarding Shovlin, they pretty much had a team pow wow around him every timehe penetrated the middle....all night. He made some super passes that were (to be polite) mishandled. GC absolutely dropped one with no one near him. (1st half). DA flubbed a layup off a feed at the half. SK couldn't convert off a nifty feed (late 2nd half) ...and I forgot a few to be sure. 

CS and the last five minutes:

My only questions are:

1) Were you at the game?
2) Did you watch the game? 
3) or Were you one of the rabid Monarchians yelling Shovlin Sucks all game long???

Then, If you answered yes to 1 and 2, what is your question???

King James,

Talked to Rick N. after the game.
He, unfortunately, needs a back operation and is out for season.

He was pretty despondent.
His extra size and soft shooting touch brought helped Kings preent different matchups etc.
Should they make the torunament, you can never have enough depth and size.

Naismith-

I have it on a good source that one of the officials was spotted walking out of Senuna's before the game.  That may explain some things.

Mr Wannabe Naismith look at the boxscores before you come on here and say the official where brutal.Wilkes 18 for 25 Kings 6 for 14 tell me who is wrong my friend.

Leo,

There goes the freedom blog again starting rumors....lol...just kidding.

That wasn't the ref....that was Colonel John in new threads.
He was planning to kidnap a ref and handcuff him to the shuffleboard at Senunas. Then he could call a lopsidid game for Wilkes.

Someone bought a round at the bar and he never showed.....

As you know Leo, John S. is one of the better officials in the conference.
A lot of local refs drop by from time to time.

Nais, excuse me but it appears you've dodged a valid point that was brought up by uofs.

Mr. Royal Personality,

I take it you were at the game?
Wilkes  and Kings were both over the limit both halves. Wilkes with about 10 minutes to go in the first half.
Of course, if you were at the game, you would know that.

Without a stat sheet, I would say total fouls were about even.
Of course, if you wee at te game, you would know that.  

Kings had 6 or 7 shots blocked inside in the 2nd half and played a slowdown perimeter game. As Coach JP noted, they stopped going inside to their big men and settled for jumpers......hardly a way to get 'shooting' fouls called.

Wilkes, on the other hand, relentlessly drove to the basket. This created about 3 or 4 conventional 3 pt. plays and a number of shooting fouls.  

Of course, if you were at the game, you would know that.

Certainly Wilkes was the more aggressive team in the 2nd half.
Of course, if you were at the game you would know that.

I simply said what is true. A number of calls against Wilkes bailed out Kings from shot clock violations and turnovers.  
Of course, if you were at the game, you would know that


But, of course, you weren't there.

And since your major at Scranton was a Bachelor of Science in Dissecting Boxscores....Congratulations!!!


You flunked again. Was you IQ really 10 points below plant life???

Naismith......who was at the game

CC,

Don't tell me you were at the game????

You have the stats.....total fouls please....then break them down by ref....I think the hefty guy had the most calls against Wilkes followed by the bald guy....lol

Now, that would be an interesting study.

Naismith.

Mr. Boxscore,

I was being faceitous....lighten up a bit....the Royals are on top.

You won't find anything in my posts on Kings-Wilkes that suggests I am 'blaming' the refs.
I know CJ personally and his dad.
I was simply relating his Dad's hysterics at the game.

I only questioned one call. You were not there. So, why use one simple stat to start hurling insults at everyone.....??? ??? ???
Especially since you are quoting a misleading stat. Why not just ask a question? ???l
I was at the Scranton-Wilkes game. Wilkes had no coach and their most talented player on the bench. When EW was tossed, there was little chance for the Colonels to win. I didn't like the ejection and my distaste for the officiating pertains to one official who called that game. (thought I made that clear) He is the same one who was high fiving a Lyco player at the Marts right in front of me and congratulating their players with handslaps down the bench with time still on the clock.
If an official called a game against Scranton and was behaving like that with the opponents players, I am sure we would have heard something from you and it would probably not be polite....since that doesn't seem to be your nature.

I am too old to get all wrapped up in the emotion and spew the hatred and nonsense that you write.  You don't really read the posts carefully and obviously don't comprehend anything other than what you want to hear. So be it.

I have always complimented RA and DC if you have read any of my posts. I also think the Aussie has made great strides. Scranton is legit with or without the early season injuries.

You, however, will have to buy your own at Senunas after the game.

Nais, did you apologize to Saratoga for "dressing down" the wrong guy?

On another note, it's Day 2 for pitchers and catchers at Orioles camp. Got my tickets for their season opener with the D-Rays. :)

Thats good. I could tell you about fouls but I can't find a boxscore, but I would imagine the fouls were pretty even.

Danzig's dilemma

Should the University of Scranton men's basketball team advance to the MAC Freedom championship game Feb. 25, Royals head coach Carl Danzig has a problem.

At the same time, Bucknell University is retiring the No. 44 jersey of Danzig's father, Hal, during halftime of its game against Army.

Playing from 1957-59, Hal Danzig led the Bison to three consecutive 16-win seasons. He was the team's leading scorer each of those years and totaled 1,163 career points.

Most of all, though, Hal Danzig was known for his rebounding ability. He grabbed 1,134 in his career, a school record that still stands. His career rebounding average is 15.97.

"It's definitely a tribute to him," Carl Danzig said. "He was a tremendous player, an All-American who was inducted into the College Hall of Fame with John Wooden and a bunch of other guys. He was also a great student-athlete who came away with an engineering degree."

So, where will Carl Danzig be on Feb. 25?

"I'll be here. We're planning on getting to that last game," he said. "My wife and kids will be there. If I can't, we'll be well-represented."

Also having his No. 22 jersey retired in the same ceremony is Al Leslie, a 1981 graduate who holds Bison records for points in a game (45), season (564) and career (1,973).

Hal Danzig and Leslie are the first two players in the program's history to have their jerseys retired.

'Danzig's dilemma'

Nepa,

Nice story. Glad you brought it to my attention.
Great to see some of the oldtimers get recognition.

My mom had attended Bucknell many years ago. She was originally from Staten Island.


I wonder if Bucknell retired Mattie's number??
