If my uncle wore a dress, he'd be my aunt.

Would that make Mugsy a former cheerleader then?   :P ;) :D

Hey, you can't delete a post that I am responding to!  Well, I guess you can, but it makes it harder for me to disagree!  :D

Usee.....are you kidding?  Have you ever played on slippery field?  Ittersagen didn't need any blocking because the tacklers got no footing to make the play.  On a wet slippery field the runner has a huge advantage because he is NOT in react mode...he dictating play by what he is proacively doing.  The kicking team must react and shift their weight quickly which causes footing issues.  Watch the tape.   It is my opinion that Bethel was the superior team and they would have won on a reasonable field.  You don't want to share that opinion because you are a Wheaton loyalist,, but so am I and I think got lucky with a wet field of play.  My opinion.....and by the way, it was the opinion of the people around me.   


Breach of etiquette!  Breach of CCIW post argument etiquette!  Both sides must go at least 3 posts before someone declares the "watch the tape" end all statement.

I always love the "watch the tape" argument.  So definitive... so "no need trying to continue the argument - it's over."

Right up there with the "I dare you", "I double-dog dare you", and the grand daddy of them all - "I triple-dog dare you."

cciw would have won the argument had he allowed it to go one more round.

Congratulations to Evan Jones of Carthage, Randy Wright of Elmhurst and Pete Ittersagen (opponent of Bethel) for this week's POW honors.

Ittersagen, a senior cornerback from Wheaton, Ill., and Wheaton North High School, came through in the Thunder's 10-7 win against fifth-ranked Bethel on Saturday. Ittersagen amassed 127 total return yards in the game (the same amount of total offensive yards in the game for Wheaton). He returned three punts for 106 yards, including a 65-yard punt return for Wheaton's lone touchdown in the victory. He also had a 21-yard kickoff return. His touchdown marked the fourth time in Ittersagen's career that he returned a punt for a touchdown to set a new Wheaton career record and also tie the school career record for touchdown returns (kickoff/punt).

But he was lucky because it was a slippery field.

Interestingly, if you add the return yards to total offensive yards for each team you get:

Bethel 273 total yds (202 offense, 71 return yds)
Wheaton 273 total yds (127 offense, 146 return yds)

if you add that Wheaton had +15 yd per punt and +10 yds per KO on coverage and you get a sizeable statistical advantage for Wheaton (without even factoring in the +2 turnover ratio). Those are the reasons Wheaton won the game.

When Mugsy gets to 2000 posts(again) I wonder if he will remember the little people that got him to that lofty status?   ::)

Doubtful. 

Why do you think Pat & Co deleted all those posts across the D3 landscape?  Because the database had grown too big?  Yet right... it was a futile attempt to keep me humble.

Question is... what must be done now that usee has crossed 3000?

If you take this weak argument to it's ultimate end, no defense should EVER be able to stop an offense in a game played during rain or snow.  On a wet field, the offense doesn't even need to block.  The defenders will just fall down for you.

I measure my posts in time spent on the internet, not number of posts. It's a much more exact statistical analysis of the impact you are making and the lack of meaning in your life.
