[Mr. Ypsi]

After that, 'penguin guy' sounds MUCH better than 'penguinator'!   +k

My congratulations to Coach Speckman, too. What a well=deserved honor.
Same for Scott Birkhofer.

It was good to see Taylor Summers' and Jared Hinkle's names, too, along with the other NWC guys.

Congrats to Coach Speckman on being West Region Coach of the Year.  Also to those NWC players named.

Pat pulled the racist piece of crap post off of the ASC board and I thank you.  And yes even I have standards, while lower than some I do have em.

Phone it in

I think i know the post you're talking about, GHC.  If not then another one went up that had racial overtones

[Gig Harbor Cat]

Yea Toby, that was the one,
  I just don't get that attitude, doesn't compute.

Peace Out

I just posted up my thoughts on the 'Cats all region picks on the ADvantage.

3 Cats land on D3.com All-Region Team but was Taylor Summers robbed?

...
Now here is where I had an initial gripe with the all-region teams. Taylor Summers being named to the 3rd team as a defensive end. At first I couldn't believe my eyes. Summers had just as dominate of a season of Wildcat greats of recent memory (Lions, Rix, Ort, Olsen, etc). Teams feared him, sent extra bodies at him, and at times it seemed that #92 couldn't be blocked on passing downs. Taylor was a force and I have to say that my initial reaction was that I was ticked.

However, instead of just bitching on d3boards.com, like so many posters who feel their player/coach, were robbed of an honor, I sat down and tried to look at this as objectionable as possible. ...

I think that was malaprop-riate.

What can I say?  I went to the Emmitt Smith school of journalism.

Coco and others... what's the scoop on the Cats this year?  I'm used to hearing the proverbial roar from the northwest still around this time of year

[bluenote]

Pat....where should we look for the link for any of the semifinals that are being broadcast via internet video? Would that be the scoreboard page? Thanks!

Dsquared,
Not our year this year, but don't worry. We'll be back.
We've got a good nucleus for next year's team.

It appears that we might be getting some Iowa-type weather this weekend in 'Catland.

Yes, it will be.

Coco,

So does the rest of the league. I see three very solid NWC squads battling for next year's crown with two more teams on the bubble.

[coco]

I agree.
Several of us have some youngsters with experience, so it should be an interesting season.
