It is interesting to point out that of all the E8 teams Hartwick did the best containing Mr. Canori last season.

They held him to only 3 points on the 1/28/2006 meeting. Canori played 36 minutes that game.

Did you read the part of the article where Canori had to play PG for ten games and was pretty much "lost?" I have a feeling one or both of the Hartwick games took place during that time.

Agreed about the hazing of rookie posters. It's not needed.

Hazing? What does that mean?

Am I not allowed to point out the fact that Hartwick has been completely irrelevant to the E8 championship for the last several years? Am I not allowed to poke fun at Hartwick fans?

Aren't we being a bit touchy here? I didn't insult the guy in any way, unless you consider me saying he was being "unrealistic" if he didn't expect a little bit of heckling for being a Hartwick fan.

I assume we're all above the age of 6 in here, so maybe we can tone down the nursery school vibe a little bit.

Pat, at what point is he not a "rookie poster" anymore? 10 posts? 50? I just want to know when I can start disagreeing with him. I hate being labeled a "hazer".

I want to personally thank Pat Coleman for taking a stand on the "hazing" that occurs on this board. My experience here on D3hoops message board has been less then stellar so far. It shouldn't matter what team you support on this board or how well they are doing,etc? Everyone poster on this should be treated on an equal playing field, regarding of team affiliation. At the moment I feel like I am a 2nd class citizen for being a Hartwick supporter. I don't appreciate being vilified

The Empire 8 Conference has a sportsmanship statement in place for its athletes, coaches, administrators, and fans. I think this board needs to work on its sportsmanship as well.

I would have to agree with Bamm here, although does that make me a "hazer" through association?

Most people that post on this board get criticized from time to time, I really don't understand what the big problem is.

Getting back to basketball (and hopefully staying here) -- the oldest in season college hoops tourney starts tonight. I'll take:

Brockport over Keuka
Geneseo over Roberts
RIT over Fisher (of course)
UR over Naz

The only game that shouldn't be close is the Brockport/Keuka matchup, though you never really know what you'll get with Roberts. RIT/Fisher and UR/Naz are both playing each other for the second time this season, and both games were close.

postup-
grow up and grow a pair.

Pat Coleman · January 10, 2007, 12:07:37 PM

Just saying -- if you ever want to get beyond the handful of regular posters, you might want to be more welcoming to new posters. That's all.

fisheralum91 · January 10, 2007, 12:50:12 PM

pat that is understood,
but for god sakes- the guy might as well be wearing a dress!

Pat-Couldn't agree with you more!!

Couple of questions for you and for you to answer:

How many regular posters are on this Empire 8 message board?
How many new posters (like me) have signed up this season so far? How many of them are active? How many are not active?

Just wondering

Anyway to the rest of the board:

BE Loud Be Proud Be Positive....Post Responsibly
-Post for YOUR team, not against opponents and their fans
-Don't get personal in your posts about other players, coaches, fans, or officials
-No intimidating, vilifying, harassing other posters or teams

postup,
you dont make the rules.
If you cant take a little ribbing like we all do - then you may want to go elsewhere..
It all is in good fun- but who are you to tell us how to post?
