If he did not transfer and enrolled at Widener as a freshman than he is a regular 4th year senior. I distinctly remember a game from his first year at Widener against Etown in which he had about 6 dunks and that was the 02-03 season. He has played the last 4 years (this year included) so his eligibility should be up after this year.

Wednesdays Picks:

Widener @ Etown....Etown by 5...Muscle up Schriebers
Albright @ Susq...Albright by 2 touchdowns and two field goals
Messiah @ Moravian...Messiah by 13
LVC @ Juniata...Juniata by 9

Ill take the 3 favorites from above except the Etown game. I'll take Widener with the money line.

Coach C · January 24, 2006, 02:09:59 PM

good call rt - you are correct!

AS for the scores, i would say you have each right, but Albright @ Susqy wont be a 20 point game.

maybe 30.

I agree about the Albright game, but they I decided to go a little more conservative with the line this time since they crapped the bed on Saturday when I had them up 23 at half.

Etown by 5? Didnt they lose to susquehanna? They are also not very good. Widener -11 I am taking Widener.

Albright @ Susquehanana - Too much Size, don't see how Susqy keeps it close
Messiah @ Moravian - I'll take Messiah by 20
LVC @ Juniata - LVC is the worst team in the league, by far.

Accurate lines:
Widener (-8.5) vs. Etown
Juniata (-12) vs. LVC
Albright (-23) vs. Susquehanna
Messiah (-15.5) vs. Moravian

You have Albright winning by 3 more points than I did, Messiah by 2.5 more points than I did, and Juniata by 3 more points than I did. So basically you agree with me across the board, except you think Widener is going to beat Etown, which we have already previously disagreed about.

Your post could have been summed up by simply saying, "Why yes rollingthunda, you are correct, save the Widener game because my Pioneers are going to kick the snot out of your Blue Jays. But thanks for redoing the lines for me and making them accurate to the tens decimal place. I appreciate it.

And Etown coming off a bad loss only throws fuel to the fire there chief.

Coach C · January 24, 2006, 04:56:15 PM

Well Widener has traditionally struggleed out there and I am thinkint that Etown will wake up soon, so I like the birds.

Maybe the 2 of ytou should go for dinner after.....I am sure Crow is on the menu.... In other news Elizabethtown is not good.....sorry you do not have a good team this year.

Good = Widener + Albright + Messiah
bad= Etown

Good call on the lines rollingthunda. I knew I could count on you to clear up the Clarkson situation. As for sleepercell, I think you're going to be the one eating crow in February when your Pioneers poop out of the playoffs early again. Enough about Clarkson, Blakey is your best player, he makes your team. Quickest PG and sickest handle in the conference. No doubt Etown wins tomorrow and covers.

thereiis · January 24, 2006, 10:41:18 PM

For the love of god.....where to begin with some of you clowns. I love the people here who say E-town can hang with, let alone win against, Widener. For starters, Clarkson isnt a 5th year senior. He got hurt, but didnt redshirt his soph year. He also didnt transfer in, he is a legit senior and came there his freshman year. I use to play on the team. Second, name anyone in the league, let alone on Etown who can stop him?

? Watching their games it really isnt fair when he plays. If you want a line to make for the game, do over/under Clarkson's dunks at 10 (-950).

But in all honesty, the kid cant be stopped. Have a good ones pimps and hoes,

thereiis -

He's th best player in the league. But you asked who can stop him ... well, Murphy and Walter did a pretty good job on him at Albright.

Your math = Widener education
And I wasnt aware that agreeing on a subject constituted dinner

I have been waiting for some love for your boy for awhile now. Long over due.

I'm glad you retyped my post from earlier clarifying Clarksons situation. Thank you for the restatement. There might not be any single person that can stop Clarkson, but last I checked there are 5 guys on the court and Etown has always played TEAM defense. And I didnt see the game, but from the looks of the boxscore, it looks like Albright did a pretty good job. It has always been about the team at Etown and that is why they have been successful. He's a hell of a player and if Clarkson got to play one-on-one against any Blue Jay to decide who gets the win tonight, I would probably pick Widener to win. But since each team trots 5 guys out on the court before they toss it up.....Etown by 5 homie. Oh yea, and I'm pretty sure there are no pimps or hoes up in here dawg.

1. speak for yourself.

Etown is not a playoff team. Blakely is a slightly above D3 point guard (Randy Arnold is twenty times better than him)

Is there one starter on Etown that would start for Widener? I don't think so....

thereiis · January 25, 2006, 12:29:07 PM

in response to the albright beating widener points: cant really say anything besides widener wasnt ready for the game mentally. everyone on widener played bad, not only clarkson. however, im sure ill have much more to say after the game tonight. in reponse to the comments about it being a 5 on 5 game: obviously, and in all honesty, not one player on etown can guard one of wideners, match up for match up. there too athletic. now granted, if they double team him or some sort of match up like albright did and the other players have bad games, they most likely lose. but i dont see etown doing that. hopefully i dont eat all of these comments come tonight. later PIMPS AND HOES.................
