BB: LEC: Little East Conference

[Pat Coleman]

Hey, Bobby, congrats. Even though you haven't been there before, you could at least *act* like you have.

For a guy who had to re-register, what, five times this spring before you could master the process, you sure have a lot to say.

Sorry but I got bored in church and decided to read back to the start of the season.  You may say the Beacons and their supporters are "classless," or maybe we're just catching up.  Just thought some of you would like to look through the scrapbook with me.  The rants and comments about our program, our team and our fans being a joke have come full circle.  Yes, the Beacons are that annoying, no-good, pesky, gutty team that a lot of you just can't stand.  And, with almost everyone coming back next year, this is just the beginning.  Hi haters, welcome to Beaconville.

Very good post Bobby always nice to see the haters and what they were saying the whole year that this team was garbage this that and the other thing. But like you said with the regionals coming up next week and this team is doing it all hitting, pitching and playing great defense, THEY ARE SCARYYY. And ECSUALUM your talking pretty big game for a team that isnt even in the tourney yet. And like you said bobby this is just the start of the Beacons reign to with almost everyone coming back next year they arent going ANYWHERE BUT UP. Welcome to Beaconville is right..... BYE HATERSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

Thanks for deleting yourself. I won't waste any time approving your next half-dozen attempts to register for the message board.

If I were a UMB Beacon player, I certainly would not like to be characterized per your comments above.

The UMB Beacons are the LEC Champs and are at the least, a very good team!!

It is YOU, BB, that is annoying, no-good, classless etc etc etc  The rants are focused on you, not the UMB Beacon baseball team,  They deserve everyone's admiration for thier hard work and results this year.  McCormack and Walsh in particular

I said it yesterday and will say it again. Congrats to the UMB baseball team.

I rescend my congrats to the UMB board posters here. Mr. Coleman has it correct, we can kid and good naturedly trash each other. Heck every look at my postings about myself and Owl Nation? Huh? red-necks hillbillys, toothless...all the stereo-types? All in fun.

Bobby you take yourself way too serious. I enjoyed your rants and your passions and said so early on; but today is disappointing. I believe you have turned the entire LEC Board and maybe even all the NE Board against you and your team.

It used to be fun to visit this board and take our minds off the daily grind. You my friend have soiled the board and spoiled some of that fun we all had. I now will refuse to read any of your posts you are a persona non grata to me.

well put,word!
Bobby takes himself way too seriously and shows no originality or thought. Just goes off ranting.  I've always enjoyed the back and forth on the LEC board. very thoughtful, entertaining and reasonable. It's a real joy to read the passion and knowledge of the LEC posters. Jcon is reasonable compared to Bobby!  That whole page of reposting other's comment was such a waste of time.

Dear esteemed LEC posters,

Yes Bobby's rants, and posting of late have been a tad much, but shouldnt we cut him a little bit of a break?  The beacons have never won and therefor Bobby doesnt know how to act in situations like this.  You know the saying act like you have done it before?  Well Bobby is working on that lesson, as this is the first time the Beacons have done this.  I agree with i think it was Word who said that we dont hate on the Beacons as much as we hate on thier posters.  I have been very vocal against the Beacons and their posters.  That being said i think you tip the hat to them as a team and say congrats well played.  I think that Bobby is just over juiced up right now, and if we let him run around and scream and rant and ignore it much like a 3 year old throwing a fit, it will calm down.  I am prepared to let Bobby slide a little longer. 

Eastern is probably in so where do the Beacons and Warriors go with the seedings?  Im thinking UMB ends up in the 4vs 5 game, and Eastern in the 3v6 game as the 6

So the end of the season approaches. Many a young ball players careers have reached an end. A wise man once said an athlete dies two deaths, the first when they retire or their career ends.

I tip my hat to all those young men who have closed out their careers in the last week or two. I know how I felt when I took my uniform off for the last time, I know how painful it was for my son and daughter both.

To those who get to play on good luck make the best of the next week or two.

To all those UMB's

Congrats on the title but please dont ruin it by quoting every "prophetic" statement you have made over the past five years. 

Eventually, if you keep saying it and saying it, it will happen and you can say you were right.  Its impossible to argue with those kind of people because when you are right you act like you know everything.  I did some of my own research and found numerous Jcon posts about this year or that being Boston's year and how 2007 Eastern was going to be bad (14-0 conference regular season).

It is quite exciting to win your first conference title, I know the feeling, and especially to win the first title in team history.

Lets not overblow it or ruin it by what we write on these boards. 

As we all know, the NCAA tournament is a whole new monster and every little mistake will be magnified.

It is going to be a great tournament.

And congrats to UMB I hope they represent the conference well because that is what it is all about.

Great point Pat. I know that there were a few parents and fans at the LEC Tourney I actually heard them saying the  same thing. "act" like you have been there, even if you haven't.

Alrigt here is my piece,

Bobby was simply pointing out what all of you were saying about UMB and there players. The fact of the matter is UMB has been bashed on this board for years. (do i sometimes go over the top of course thats the point supporting your team at all cost) But hobbesy if you really want to go back and look at things that have been said I can find alot worse things then what bobby has said. Bashing players left and in right (WHO PROVED EVERYBODY WRONG THIS WEEKEND) But im going to put this in very simple terms for everybody on here THIS TEAM DOES NOT CARE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK, SAY OR DO. They dont care what the other teams coaches, players, parents or whoever say. They are going to be loud they are going to get jacked up in the dugout and get in the others teams head (see Nick Hahn from USM when Santos on first base got into his head he lost focus on the batter and ended up letting up a sac fly, a walk and then BOOM a grand slam that was the turning point in the game) So I dont want to hear what the other parents have to say the old saying act like you have been there before doesnt apply because UMB never has PERIOD. So you can all say what you want it doesnt matter because to this team the only people that matter when there on that field is the guys out there wearing the Beacon blue and white. AND IF YOU DONT LIKE IT THEY DO NOT CARE. Welcome to BEACONVILLE.

Hello all, haven't been logged in in a while, but I usually check in and read the threads.. Tough way to the end the season for KSC, its not easy to see seniors like Cipolla and Mike Riley after they've played their last games of baseball..

To JConn and Bobby, it truly is sad what you are doing on these boards. I feel bad for the stigma that you are placing on UMB players. If there were KSC fans posting things like you guys do I would be embarrassed to be on that team. The fact of the matter is is that some players actually do come on here and read these threads. I feel bad that you two clowns are representing UMB in such a childish manner. I guarantee that the UMB players who read this thread are completely embarrassed by the things they see you write. I hope that you are fans and not parents of UMB players because I can guarantee they would be disgusted to see how their parents are acting.

UMB deserved to win the tournament and they are a very good team. It is sad that the only reason no one will cheer for them is because of two losers on a message board (who were most likely terrible at baseball if they ever played). The difference between you two and all other posters is that we all have class. Lose with class and win with class. If ECSU, KSC, or USM won the tourney there would have been no nonsense like that from any of their posters.

It almost makes me mad that I dont want to cheer for an LEC team in the regionals because of the nonsense on this message board.

Go Eastern

Don't count the Owls out just yet. Their SOS and run at the end of the year has to count for something. I have still yet to see the final 55. Keep yer fingers crossed Owl Nation.
