[Gregory Sager]

What time can we expect to see the predictions?  You guys did such a great job on the womans that im excited to see the mens

I know that Pat must pull his hair every time someone asks a question that is clearly visible on the front page of the web site!

Not a problem anymore, since I've given Pat the URL to handle that eventuality:

Probably still standing in its zone that noboby seems to be able to shoot over?!?!?!

Sorry, just a little frostbit after watching the Kingsmen's cold shooting.

[Pat Coleman]

Projections work better if people have time to read and ponder them

[Pat Coleman]

Projections work better if they're done right and not rushed.

[Pat Coleman]

Ask last year's men's national committee.

Pat,

Could you let us know who was on the final Pool C board?

This projection looks good.

Wow!  I am amazed at the bracketing, but just getting the Pool C's off the board is something!

Three SCIAC's!  One might think that the committee is trying to atone for past slights in one season.  However, there were a bunch of losses in the West Region last week.

Thanks.
