Thanks for the scores, "kid."

Just finished listening to the GC-R-M game on the computer. Sounds as if Macon got unraveled there at the end. Happy to be wrong about my pick there. I was more scared of Guilford than E&H.

Speaking of E&H, I hope there's a poster out there that saw that game. I'd like to hear about it.

Hasanova, I'm sorry I didn't make it down, but I know you supply the much needed details of the GC-R-M game.

kid,

Thanks for the updates. If that score is correct the Marlins must have shot well and played some pretty good defense vs. E&H or guarded the perimeter very well. I guess the 3-5 trip to GC/E&H the last four years played nothing this year as jdubdubya mentioned. Marlins have RMC at the beach next weekend.

Congrats to the Marlins for a great weekend of games and for their 16th consecutive win. No more "JINX" for the Marlins at Guilford or Emory&Henry. Macedo has done a super job getting the most out of his players, and they have rewarded him with 16 in a row. Keep it up Marlins. Well done!

I do NOT want to play either Roanoke or Guilford in the ODAC tourney. . . . .

Regular season sweeps and then pairings in the first round always make me nervous. . . .

Genero,
Please come back and clarify your votes for the two Monday games. Steelyglen has enough problems with upstart posters on this board without another Mr. Divac Mess to muddle through. However, Warren Thompson needs to start assembling his investigative committee---just in case.

Are Estes Kefauver, Robert Welch, and Sam Ervin still available?

steelyglen · January 30, 2006, 07:51:08 AM

Warren...I believe Baretta is free...just in case you want to save a little money and have one person commit AND investigate the same crime!

mr_divac...jimmy is right please "embolden" Mondays games or I'll be forced to throw those out as well. Last was madness...madness I tell you...all because of "embolden-gate"

...now I got "eh...just call me kid" ridin' my a$$ (

). Isn't there a hazardous pay clause in my contract? Jacketlawyer...I see a retainer opportunity in your future...

Lynchburg 60
BC 59 1 OT Final

The Eagles sure had their chances...

They did... it seemed the Eagles were out of sync the entire game. The comment above regarding the zone v. man-to-man is right on the nose. BC came out in the zone, gained ground, seemed like they were going to catch up and pass LC, then went back to the zone.

One thing the stats do not reflect is that even with the strategy used BC-as Kid notes-had its chances. They had a lot of open looks, and had a whole lot of shots that rimmed out both inside and outside the arc.

I was sitting next to Josh Fox (BC #32) grandfather, who observed that BC had not played in a week, and that they often seemed to be thinking what to do rather than doing it instinctively...he attributed this to a lack of sharpness due to the layoff.

One has to give credit to LC-they answered every charge and kept their cool. We were sitting right behind the LC bench, and I have to say that Coach Swickrath is a fireball!
