FB: American Rivers Conference

[DBQ1965]

The Dubuque Telegraph-Herald has a piece on Loras looking forward to next season already.

http://www.thonline.com/article.cfm?id=223271

And looking for any silver lining for Spartan fans ... way down at the end of the article under "2-minute drill" is mention of Jeremy Laskowski, a senior linebacker for UD winning the IIAC "tackle title" with 125.

Ah ...there's always next year!

GO SPARTANS!

I must say i concur with our mystery guest.

First off, our phantom poster isnt Sanches, nice try though.  Cornell is a lil smarter than that cmon now guys.  He doesn't play for the fball team either.  So there goes that theory about some disgruntled player.  Finally, what he does say is true.  I know who it is and thats about all there is to say about it.  He makes a lot of valid points and I don't see the future of this program headed anywhere near the direction it should be.  Coaches will be gone, players will be gone and its gonna be a long road ahead.  Why some have their panties up in a bunch over in CC33 sayin this is beyond me.  Until people start getting singled out, the season is over for the Rams and its time to move on.  You can all go do your CSI background checks on me now....have fun chasing invisible butterflies.  

Is one of his valid points that it's an honorable thing to falsely implicate a player in this sort of garbage?  Boy, I sure hope these allegedly fired coaches have another means of paying mortgages and raising families.  Your concern for them is overwhelming.

Although it is pretty clear that with Cornell's upstanding fan base, you setting a stellar example, that it's just a short matter of time until they are on top of the IIAC.

What is up with the CSI background check statement.  When someone comes onto the scene with a name like CCRAM33 wouldnt it make sense to check the Cornell website and see if there is a legitamate connection?

OZ is exactally right.  This is the type of crap that we have seen from Cornell fans, excluding Heys, for quite some time now.  Its either the hail marry the sky is falling, or praise the lord were winning the conference. 

The background check crack was because hes posted on here before but no one seemed to care since his posts werent that "interesting."  All of the sudden hes public enemy #1 and everyone thinks hes trying to frame players.  

As for "This is the type of crap that we have seen from Cornell fans, excluding Heys, for quite some time now.  Its either the hail marry the sky is falling, or praise the lord were winning the conference."  I do believe I've always been a critic.  True I started to get my hopes up a couple years ago when we started 2-0 and I thought well maybe...but I was quickly brought back to reality.  But when you're as dismal as they have been whats good to talk about.  Oh they came out and played hard again another week but by golly we lost 35-6 and coulda won if a turnover or two went our way.  I'm sorry but I don't believe in moral victories.  Believe me, I would like nothing more than to see Cornell succeed.  I did play ball there, as did virtually all of my friends.  In the end, I'm a realist and I'm not here to sugarcoat anything.  Youre either a winner or a loser.  Right now, we're losers.

Well when you come on the board one day after the season with a screen name of CCRAM33 it is going to lead to speculation that you are a player.  Moving forward, if you look at the Cornell rost you will see that #33 is indeed a senior, so it makes even more sense assume that he is that person.  Lastly when you have Alex Macey's dad on the board, whom all hold to a high regard, its going to raise some red flags.  All of us on this board would love nothing more than to see Cornell succeed, just as long as it isnt at the epense of our team   Kind of an oxymoron isnt it? 

You have made a total of 58 posts since 2005.  I am not saying that you do not read the board on a daily basis, but if you have you will have seen the likes of ShowME and the other posters who have been johnny come latelys.  Frustrated, I bet you are.  Just as others are frustrated with their teams performances this season.  Me being the most frustrated that my Beavers craped another one away. 

If CCRAM33 is your friend then invite him back to the board and have him clear the air.  Have him clear his name and make sure that we all know that he wasnt framing a poster.  Throwing out some propaganda and then deleting yourself is no way to gain credibility. 

Gee, Klop, did you drink too much coffee today? You're pretty wound up. And you are actually more a "Johnny come lately" than he is, having been on the board for just over a year yourself. It's okay. He's entitled to his opinion, and can post how often he wants.

I'm pretty sure he could care less about his crediability on a division 3 football message board...were not as cool as you think we are...

I am waaaay cooler than my kids think I am.     8)

New string.

I need to buy Jr. a car out there in Iowa, PDQ.  PM me if you have an old beater you are looking to move.  Basic transport from point A to point B.

Klopenheimer, you would need to clear the beer cans from the back seat and trunk.   8)

SK or WH, maybe we could help Purple Heys out and round up the ol' "One Mobile"?  I think they got rid of it after my freshman year...never got the opportunity to drive or ride in it.  I'm sure he would love to show up to Cornell in an orange and black car.

Walston, what time are you and the gang planning on arriving at Steven's Point?  I plan on making the trip from Winona myself that morning.

THAT would be funny.   

[Purple Heys]

I used to ride in my friend's Bartch-mobile in High School

A 70's vintage Plymouth Fury 2-door with the back end scooped out from backseat to trunk to make it home-made pick-up truck.   

His name was Eric Bartch, hence the vehicle's name.  Good times.

Jr. needs a car like that.

[Purple Heys]

Me.  I still look for that classic Roadmaster Wagon with the Faux wood sides.

"Look Honey, it's a ROADMASTER!"

My wife rolls her eyes and ignores me.

Now it will require a free beer and two rum and cokes for me to be a Knight fan for a day. Make that three hours, I won't waste the whole day being a Knight fan.

Had to get a shot in there.

Leaving Cedar Falls area at 4. Should put us in SP between 9 and 10. Enough time to fire up the grill and get the crock pot simmering.
Kind of depends on how many Mounties are working the roads in Southern Minny and Wisky on a Saturday morning that early. WIll they mind if we stretch the speed limit a little?

[Ash Park]

So I am hearing the same news in MV that there were two coaches let go, forced to resigned, fired whatever you want to call it. I am also hearing that there are some people/players/parents upset which I think is to be expected in this situation. I really don't know what to think to be honest...I'm kind of in agreement with Speedkills right now. I have always been a realist of the Rams although my hopes are high and I always pick them to win on the pick ems most of the time 
I just hope that the players don't jump ship and keep working their butts off.

Walston....
After several pages writing about ethical responsibility in posting you write that?  Doesn't suprise me but I had hoped for more from you.

Don't hold me to this but most cops won't look at you if your 10 over ( at least that was my target anything over that got stop. One word of advices if you do get stop the first words out of your mouth determine if you were going to get a ticket or not. At least all the cops I know around where I was a cop said that. But then you get to the State Boys and the have their hats screw on to tight so all bets are off with them.  But I bet they are the same as County Mounties.
