MBB: MAC Freedom League

But you can't win it if you go one and out.

[cold_case]

I think I better repeat this since you just don't get it.

"What good is getting to the national final if you don't win it?"
What he's saying is that if you don't win it all, then the season was useless.
Sounds like you are satisfied with just getting there, which says you're not used to winning and will be satisfied with anything.
It's also obvious you have a dislike for Scranton and other Freedom teams.

[Knightstalker]

No it is obvious that I was just giving scouting reports and giving a score and you seem to have a bug up your butt about people who don't agree with you.  I understood completely what you said, but you can't put that theory to test unless you get to the final game and you can not do that going one and out.  WPU still has a chance to win it all, Scranton does not this year.  It is not because I dislike Scranton it is just a fact.  No one else seems to have a problem with what I have posted, only you.  I think you need another xanex.

[cold_case]

Ummm, it's obvious you went to a NJAC college. It's spelled-- Xanax

[Knightstalker]

You must keep your bottle next to the PC.

[cold_case]

Oh, there's one other thing that's obvious: It's obvious we're the only two people on here.

[Knightstalker]

everybody else is crying in a beer.  Me I am home alone enjoying the peace and quiet while the wife and kid are visiting a friend.  Now if the NJCU audio link would work and I could listen to the ECAC game from Stockton.

[cold_case]

I think ESPN2 is carrying it on tape delay at midnight.

[Knightstalker]

NJCU wins and host the ECAC championship tomorrow.

Did that feel like a 1/16 game or what...

[ColonelJohn4Life]

Scranton 53
William PATTERSON 51

NEPAFAN, (1) There's STILL one T in Paterson, and (2) that prediction was only a little off.  And by "only a little", I mean "completely."

My bitter Colonel blue blood still boils... we would have only lost by 20!!  Haah!  Come on, 45 points?  It's a 40 minute game...

CC - Thanks for jumping on that pharmaceutical correction.  I'll see your "Xanax" and raise you to "alprazolam." 

Knight - Yup, you guys were the only two on.  But, at least for one night, we weren't discussing the merits of Jerry Rice...

[ColonelJohn4Life]

In other news, I had WPU in the Pick Em... and didn't get my 1 point!  What the F---!  Someone get on this!

[cold_case]

CC - Thanks for jumping on that pharmaceutical correction.  I'll see your "Xanax" and raise you to "alprazolam." 

Aren't they one in the same, except the latter is much cheaper? 8)

CC,

Hope you had fun last night.
Your misanthropian tendencies must have metamorphized from a veteran old CV oakster  that, in previous years, was usually found planted on Main Street Wilkes-Barre  Hour Glass.

Anyway, once you are done putting away your enigma machine and consulting with the Navajo codebreakers, why don't you go outside and get a breath of fresh air.

Our boy CJ needs to vary his diet from Xanax and fried RICE ...don't you think?

Didn't see a press release or anything on Scranton. Looks like WP is either very very good or DaU just didn't match up well....They are still the Freedom preseason pick for next year with Kings a very very close #2. Unless the Colonels can recruit some size, I see them struggling in 2006-07.

As stated, went to Lewisburg and, after a short stint with some Allenwood based stockbrokers, I headed over the Sjoka. Lo and behold, the building is named for another stockbroker...lol. 

American/Lafayette -------American is tall and they pretty much led wire to wire against a cold shooting Lafayette . Can't believe haw many foreign players dot these rosters!!  College ball in Europe must be non-existent...all the 'players' are in the US.

Bucknell/Army--------------Army hung tough for 35 minutes. As expected, they played physical and hard for all 40 minutes. They were in the Bisons' face all night and it was a subpar offensive effort or a great defensive effort...take your pick. Bisons do play excellent defense and are very quick. Badmus is fine point guard. McNaughton was a little slower live than I expected. 

Would expect American to give them a tussle tomorrow. They don't appear as physical as Army and that might be their undoing.

What a great facility. First time at the new gym.
Mattie would be proud.

Otto, err, excuse me, Nais,
Glad you had a good time in Lewisburg. Nice town. I was going to recommend you eat at the Country Cupboard but I suppose you dined at Hoss's in Shamokin Dam?
Wasn't a good night for the Royalites. Listened on radio and they certainly weren't up to the task. My buddy called me from Baruch with about four minutes left and said Paterson was the better team by far, but Scranton compounded matters by missing open looks all night.
It certainly sounded like a One-versus-16 matchup.
As Bessoir would say, "The kids came out with glaze in their eyes."
Whatever that means.
I did get a good laugh during a halftime interview on the Scranton radio station. Apparently, the guy said even though Baruch was upset in their conference tourney they got to host on the strength of their new 1,200 seat gym.
What???
Of course, it will be denied.
Scranton's announcer couldn't do his postgame report because the Baruch radio crew needed the phone line.
And this is a school that hosted based on the strength of their new 1,200 seat gym.
I always thought you had to have at least a 1,500 seat facility to host the NCAA's?
