Empire 8

[superman57]

Cards 7580 sounds like some sour grapes to me...My guess is the usual scoreboard people were on vacation and therefore they needed to find anyone who could do it.  Mr. Gorman it was very nice of you to come on...and on behalf of all fans we sure hope to see you guys in the NCAA's Again

as far as fishers attendance... cough cough...

averaged 580 (generous) through 14 games including one sold out naz game (1000 max capacity) and 2 empire 8 tourney games and 2 NCAA games.

JC is averaging 100 more than double fishers turnout.

were you even at the game? fisher gave fisher students and player parents 600 tickets and gave naz the rest and the gym was overloaded on the fisher size and naz had a few empty seats

I agree superman, all year I only saw 1 or 2 scoreboard problems, but some real food would be nice at games

keystonelight- you are an idiot cough cough.

[keystonelight]

i've been at every home game this year but 2 and 6 away games so yes i was at the game "idiot"
and i'm just comparing fan turnout at each venue. and thats why i said that it included one SOLD OUT GAME so thanks for letting me know that the fisher side was overcrowded...i was sitting on it... i know...

[keystonelight]

and let me guess fisheralum91...you really graduated in 92 but you chose 91 because it rhymed.

I was trying to give some good perspective as to what venues will turn out the most fans. You are so shoved up fishers ass you wouldn't care if every other team had to travel 500 miles and there were only enough seating for the team and yourself.

[keystonelight]

and by the way you're right...the game wasn't sold out... i had AN EXTRA ticket... should have sold it to your wife.  so in that sense i am an idiot... i could have made some money.

In the sense of the way the seeds have been handed out, I would say Fisher would host. However the best team of the 4 is probably Wooster and shouldn't the best team host?

Although if JCU has the best facilities will it be them? However, if the hosting was to be done in the Rochester area, Brockport does have the bigger facilities. 

You can pretty much make an argument for any of the 4 teams.  It's just silly we have to argue about it at all..there should just be seedings on the brackets and that is that, and that would make the decision final.  The best team should host.

Fisher is playing great basketball right now, they handled plattsburgh tonight.  However plattsburgh is a tough team that would not give up, they will be very tough to beat next year, as the only lose 2 guys.  As far as hosting the sweet 16, it should be fisher or wooster, anything else what be a travesty.  size does not matter as fishers 28-0 team had to travel to amherst's small gym.  I really think fisher should get to host as they were the 1 seed in the east, and the 1 seed in the great lakes lost tonight.  If fisher hosts they will have a legit chance to make it to the final 4.  They will have to play a very good bport team, that i think they will win by 4+ then a really talented Wooster team, who knows.   Wooster may be better, but if Fisher gets the home court, its going to be a great game.  If baltz, mueller, and newman continue to play the way they are, fisher will be in the final 4 or atleast lose to a very good wooster team.  Bport is talented but not as good as fisher when they are playing to their potential.

You are the runaway winner for "Irrational Poster of the Year," FD. A "travesty" if Brockport hosts the tournament? Or are you just bitter that you'd have to play them on their home court? What about it would make it a travesty? The fact that they have a bigger gym than Fisher? The fact that they are more used to running huge events than Fisher (always have HS Sectionals there)? The fact that Brockport has a higher QOWI than Fisher? The fact that Brockport has won 16 of their last 17 games?

Yeah, a real travesty that would be if Brockport was allowed to host over Fisher. What a joke you are.

I second the nomination of that award!!

I honestly can't say i know much about wooster except they have lost three games and are 28th in quality of wins index(go bombers where did you get your qowi info? I saw pat colemans post and it said fisher was higher). Even though qowi isn't strength of schedule it does show they beat lesser teams than fisher and brockport. I don't think we can automatically look at wins and loses and call one the better team. I wish i could remember the site i saw posted around here somewhere that listed the rpi rankings for each diii team.

[wooscotsfan]

Both the Wooster and St. John Fisher websites are now showing the Cardinals as the host for the Sectional.

Actually that doesn't mean that Wooster beat lesser teams....It means they beat teams with worse records.    That's the flaw with the entire way the selections are made.

pg you should be happy, port is playing close to home, it certainly beats playing in Ohio...

[gobombers15]

I think 'Port would rather play Fisher in Ohio than playing them in that little bandbox of hell. I really hope the whining coming from Pittsford over the last two years had nothing to do with this decision. I'm still going to root for Fisher because they're in Ithaca's conference but I really can't take anymore of FD's irrational posts. I may lose it if I have to read another.
