MBB: USA South Conference

[cnufan]

Capts up 59-52 with 1045 left in the game.

[narch]

3:30 left - monarchs up 3, gc with the ball - monarchs were up by 14 earlier in the half - shuford just missed a dunk on a breakaway...and now the gc broadcast fades into nothingness....AHHHHH!

[cnufan]

76-67 CNU 249 left.

[cnufan]

79-70 CNU with the ball and the lead with 42 seconds left.

[narch]

monarchs win 67-65...2-0 against the pride this season - nice win

[cnufan]

Capts win and so does Averett.

[ISoar]

Maybe Berg wants to play another sport at GC.  huh?  A little football?  Maybe squash? 

[captj]

Predictions –

Methodist at Ferrum – Monarchs win because they have to
Shenandoah at NC Wesleyan – Bishops too tough at home for the Hornets
Averett at Greensboro – full of himself for being the talk of the conference for the last week, Berg goes off on the Cougars in a Pride win that helps the Captains


Conference Standings after the Super Bowl –

CNU (6-1, 15-5)
Averett (6-2, 15-6)
NC Wesleyan (5-2, 7-12)
Greensboro (4-4, 8-11)
Methodist (4-4, 6-14)
Shenandoah (1-7, 9-10)
Ferrum (1-7, 5-16)

game story and box from the gc/mc game

my predictions
monarchs over ferrum...a 2 game win streak would be nice...just hope it isn't followed by another 4 game losing streak
bishops over hornets
cougars over pride

if the monarchs can steal a game at ncwc and/or averett and at least split the cnu/su weekend, they COULD wind up as the #3 seed with some help from others against the bishops...wow, have i really sunk that low?? hoping for a #3 seed

in other usasac sports news, the monarchs were picked as the pre-season favorite in all spring sports except baseball and women's lax - if you haven't discovered the usasac baseball board on this site, be sure to drop by...it's mostly me posting to myself at this point

In the conference race this season, the #3 seed is a pretty good place to be.  Not as good as #1, but just as good as #2.  The #3 seed hosts the first round and assuming they beat the #6, they'll play the #2 in the semis in Newport News.  That's better than playing the #1 seed in the semis, as the #4/#5 seed wil have to do.  I really think the Captains have a really good chance this year since it's unlikely that they'll do worse than #3, and home court advantage should be HUGE.  The students will turn out in force for those games. you can count on that.

Maybe Narch thinks this should this be a place where we all take cheap shots at other USA South schools. Rumors swirl about an entity near a milirary base "buying kids." Is it true? What about documented "Sharpie Incidents" from the gridiron?

I'm just a student. I don't work in an admissions office, which you'd think would cause one to be more professional and stay out of the sludge or sniping at other school's or their kids.

How about we talk hoops?

Gullett

Let's see....I've been called immature..Narch is now unprofessional...captj was something...can't remember. I've sent a personal message to you as an Olive Branch and received no reply, not even to tell me to go jump in a lake. I think I've had enough. It seems like half your posts are to blast other people for having opinions, or even some facts, that you don't like to see posted so you call us names, but you try to mask it by using politically correct words. You can't take anything with any sense of humor.

I often read things on this board I don't like. 99% of the time I ignore it. That's life. I'm convinced that 99% of the time people are not trying to intentionally upset another person.

If you want to talk hoops...go ahead....don't blast other people and then end the post with.."How about we talk hoops?". what stopped you? Here's my opinion - take it or leave it - MAN UP! Talk hoops. You could have easily ignored Narch's post and said something about hoops. Why did you choose the low road and attempt to berate another long time poster to this forum. Narch contributes a lot to this forum and not everything he says I agree with. Also - when you disagree with someone, at least be man enough to address them directly and not in the third person.

I hope Pat sends you a message and asks "do you think this is really necessary?".

To everyone else - I apologize for the rant.....it must have been the other 1% that hit a wrong nerve!

Narch - you're not allowed to sludge or snipe...only Gullet can throw that stuff out there!

We will just have to see wont we captj.

Here's my perdictions: (be quiet captj)

CNU wins
Averett wins
Methodist wins and Gullett goes back to the dorm to do more bong hits!

Gullett didn't call me a name.  He told me to "be quiet" and that "We will just have to see wont we captj".  He also perdicted what he'd be doing in his dorm after the game.

At the time (Jan. 10), I read that post with no clue what he was talking about, and I just went back and re-read the posts that preceded it, and I STILL don't know what he was talking about.  Why was he telling me to be quiet, and what are we waiting to see?

[captj]

Wait a minute, I get it.  He misspelled "perdiction" on purpose.  An effort at humor!  Is that it?  If so; very good, young Mr. Gullett!

But I still don't know what we are waiting to see.
