[Section J Guy]

CJ-


Sounds like a regular student section to me.

You lose all credibility when you point to your idol who wore a t-shirt implying that Scranton Fans should suck his...

[cold_case]

CJ,
Wasn't it you that wanted to purchase the beer outfit from a DeSales student and wear it when Wilkes played King's, minus Nenstiel?
Instead, you wore a different attire when Wilkes played Scranton, minus McGowan, Hawk and Clabby.
And you really don't want to pit the University of Scranton against Open Admissions University on an academic level, do you?
Also try to refrain from calling out former Scranton players. (Section J Guy perhaps), who by the way, is my best friend's NEPHEW!!!!!!!!!

Let it out CJ, Let it out...

We've all experienced those kinds of losses.  I can't recall any in terms of A King's loss of that magnitude.  But I remember watching Game 7 of the 2001 WS with my Dad, ready to celebrate a Yankee four-peat, only to sit there silently after Luis Gonzalez's bloop single.

As for Scranton accademics, more than a few of their students they're better than you and I.  At least I have been told that personally by one of their students (said student really believes that Scranton should join the Ivy League).  This isn't an indictment on you Saratoga, just a previous experience of mine.   That said its tough to imagine Scranton's student section was tougher than King's on Valentine's Day.

Guy, SJ - Point taken.   My larger point is not one against well-placed vulgarity.  Frankly, I encourage well-placed vulgarity.  My point is that Scranton fans, by bringing academics into it, imagine that every one of them is smarter than every one of us.  And then by chanting BS on a legit call, they dispose of all credibility.

Case - If Callejas reads the board under an assumed name, I apologize to him.  He played 4 more varsity seasons than I ever will.  And, my point here is, when a player screws up, a student section has all the right in the world to bring it up.  If fans want to throw Olive Garden receipts instead of olive branches, then certainly the opposition is allowed to dress up in beer can costumes.  Allowed to, and encouraged to.

Leo - Yeah, THAT was the feeling.  Identical.

T minus 1 more hour until we find out who / where Scranton plays...

Scranton vs. William Paterson at Baruch.
Winner gets the Baruch / Villa Julie winner

Scranton WPU should be a great game, I hope I am able to make it.

[NEPAFAN]

What do we know about William Patterson?

[Knightstalker]

William Paterson, only one t, plays in your face man to man pressure for the whole game, they will get on the ball as it is inbounded and stay on it.  They don't have the greatest offense but the defense compensates.  They are similar to the other NJAC teams in makeup, they are athletic, can run with anybody, aggressive and physical.

Sounds like the Scranton/Patterson game will end up 33-32?
The old Patterson teams I remember with Clinton Wheeler and company just ran and ran and ran. How times have changed.

[NEPAFAN]

Sounds like Randy Arnold will get a bit of a test, huh?

Coach Rembibas of William Paterson played for Seton Hall when they went to the final four in 89, he worked as a grad assistant to PJ Carlesimo and was raised in the defensive, big east style of play.  It is just good old fashioned east coast basketball.

knightstalker, how can I put up a photo like the one you have of Ted Knight?

[Knightstalker]

You have to go to your profile, modify the content and link a pic in your signature line.  There are instructions how to do this in the help link.

6PM tip-off on Friday in NYC.

[Knightstalker]

Baruch is fairly easy to get to.  For you NEPA people take 80 east to 95/NJTPK.  Drive to Weehawken, or to Liberty State Park in Jersey City.  From Weehawken you can take a ferry across to Manhattan, or take the Light Rail to Hoboken or Pavonia and take the PATH to 23rd street and walk up to Lexington Ave.  From Liberty state park take the Light Rail to Pavonia or Hoboken and then the same.  The Baruch website has links to NJ Transit, the MTA/Subway and the PATH.  I would recommend parking in NJ and taking public transit over.
