FB: Northwest Conference

Farawaycat.  Nice real post. My only defense to my sudden ranting and raving is it is meant to poke back at the posters who have animosity toward a kid they haven't met(Welch).  I don't say anything negative about a specific player so the earlier references were not for me. I have highly complimented Boehme, White, Kniffin, the Willamette RB's etc etc. Linfield is the best team and the best program at this time.  I feel Linfield has two bonafide POY nominees on D and O.

Why that one poster chose to denigrate Duncan White, I don't know.

About Speckman, I don't understand why he got what I believe to be preferential treatment at the LC game. Maybe LC just lacks respect from the league. I don't know that either. I am sure I will find out though.

I agree with CatDad ("Two things to keep in mind.... nothing said on these boards will influence one bit on the decisions that coaches make...")

The game will be played by the players and the rest of us can only watch.  It's nice when the discussion remains civil.

I'm expecting a close game and I hope the Bearcats win.  There's no doubt that Sparks gives the Lutes a home field advantage.  But, I also expect they will play their usual game where their skill is enhanced by the unexpected.  One thing I do expect is that the Lutes will not give up.  I've seen them come back too many times.  WU has to be ready. 

I attended every Bearcat game this year, home and away, and saw both their strengths and weaknesses.  In my mind I thought they played a terrible game at Linfield.  Linfield deserved to win on that day because they played an excellent game.  The football gods set it up that way – the team that plays the better game usually wins.

The Bearcats will play up to their potential and will win.

OK.  My prediction:  Bearcats 27, Lutes 17.

I'll be there.  Go Bearcats!

Denigrate...wow...I don't believe I attacked White.  Someone asked for opinion about White and I gave one...I wasn't impressed with his play.  White may have the highest passing yards a game but he's also 7th in the NWC passing efficiency.  If I wanted to denigrate I would have been way more harsh....

Hey Cat Dad,

Sorry to inform you....but it's never been about getting the best 32 teams into the playoffs......it's about the phony balogna, politically correct NCAA's way of forcing on society what they consider to be "perfect".  It's about participation.....because according to the politically correct types, everything in life must be fair...it's not right for one group of football players or whatever, to be able to excel over others....that's unfair in their way of thinking.  It's the exact type of thinking that says that America and Americans are not exceptional....that if we just share the wealth and educate everybody then everything and everybody will enjoy a perfect and fair utopian world.

Yes--that's it Cris---it's a socialist plot to destroy football.....sheesh.....

Ditto.  You may not have as much inside information in the future, but that will only make you more human like the rest of us posters.

It's more about the slew of Auto-qualifiers than anything else. A bunch of the Pool C and B candidates who don't make it in are usually better than a bunch of the Automatic bids.

Lets make a statement before selection Sunday boys !!!

Foot on the gas, ALL DAY LONG !!

Let the purple frisbees fly

Phone it in, Cats are a +40 here

GHC

[dahlby]

Forty plus? WOW!!!! Do I see 45 plus?

[Gig Harbor Cat]

only if they leave the starters in after the half

[dahlby]

I can't wait for a certain poster's response to this....I hope you are not being set up for a one-sided bet.

Although my affiliations are more to a certain independent team in Southern California, I do enjoy readiing the NW board. You guys (and gals) show no mercy. You gotta love it!

And besides, OXYBOB doesn't like us Independents posting on the SCIAC boards.

Good luck to you all this weekend.

[Piobark]

I'll take L&C + 40 points.... what shall we wager?

I agree... but he may try to catch on as a GA and then I'll still be privy to the good stuff  :-)

GO CATS!!!

One of my vintage Linfield Jock Straps from back in the day

Also just a heads up you might want to wear sunglasses to the game so you don't hurt your eyes from the glare of all of the Championship bling at the game.

I will be tailgating with the boys arriving around 10AM or so, if the old heap will make it all the way there.  We will be easy to find--

But you'll refrain from that, being a new Dad and all . . .
