It's PPV, but you can get a free hook-up, just call Walzy, he's got guys who do that too.

Walzy, you're right.  My bad about starting the rumor.  But your predictions have been uncanny.

Gordon lost to Colby-Sawyer.  That's going to hurt Trinity's chances a little bit.

Amherst and Tufts still sitting pretty.  The dance floor is getting a little more crowded.  A Trinity win on Saturday should do it, but a loss might send them home for good.

hey guys, what do you think tufts has to do in order to recieve a bid to the ncaa tourny? also if they get a bid whats the chance that they could have a possible matchup with st john fisher?  my brother goes to tufts and i went to fisher and would lvoe nothing more then to see that. 

[gobombers15]

Coming from an Ithaca grad, between Cortland and Fisher, Fisher is the better team. And I'm not only saying that because I'm an E8 guy and the rivalry between Ithaca and Cortland. Ithaca has played both so far and Fisher is by far the better team. Not saying that Cortland isn't good, but Fisher is more dangerous.

Tufts has a good regional ranking and a very good QOWI.  Tufts has a great shot of making the NCAA tourney with a Pool C should they lose this weekend. 

As for their potential matchups, that won't be known till Monday.

[Jumbos35]

Tufts will continue to overachieve, and deserve a pool C bid if they don't win the tourney.  Coach Sheldon does his best work with groups of guys that buy in to his system and will sacrifice stats for wins. 

On a previous post someone referred to the Jumbos colors as blue and "copper."
Officially, I believe, they are Columbia Blue and Brown.  While they may be less offensive to see on a basketball uniform, you should have seen the old baseball uniforms....The smurfs wore less blue...

[mrmike88]

The home football uniforms are a bit much for me.  But I can't talk too much, with all the purple around Amherst...

[mrmike88]

Just a reminder that WAMH Will have tomorrow's games from LeFrak live over the internet.  We go on the air around 1:45 for pregame.  At 2:00, Bates looks for some revenge from their lost final weekend of conference play two weeks ago as they're set for a rematch with #5 Amherst.  At 4:00, Tyler Rhoten and Trinity look to keep their NCAA hopes alive as they take on Tufts.  Surf over to http://wamh.amherst.edu/ to listen live!

The Amherst game will probably have some home-team bias.  I'm trying to be as impartial as possible for the second one.

Jumbos35,

Officially, because it don't get more official than what's clear in plain sight, Tufts' colors are blue, copper and bowlcut.  How could you forget the bowlcut yo.  It's when you slap a bowl on a dude's head and cut around the bottom edges, giving the hair a bowl-like texture and shape. 

War Corningware, the bowl of choice in Medford. 

War the Spife, 'cause he be servin' it like both a knife and a fork, like in some KFC mashed taters.

War Geronimo as the only female to ever dominate Posting Up.

War 24-hour coverage of Olympic curling on CNBC.

War changing Salerno's jersey number to an exclamation point.

War Bedford as obvious Player of the Year (best player, best team).

War Jumbocast adopting the capability to beam video Webcasts directly to peoples minds through the use of flux capacitors. 

Seacrest OUT.

War Geronimo as the only female to ever dominate Posting Up.

You might find there is a young lady in California, not to mention a bunch of Hall of Famers, who woudl disagree on this point.

[geronimo]

Hoops Fan, I said "dominate," not "participate," and shame on you for keeping a scorecard on females who post up!

Shall we submit our measurements as well?

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

UM, I was referring to diehardfan who's some 3000 posts porbably gives her a claim to the dominant female title.  I was just trying to point out that your domination may only be regional.

[ajsnc13]

IF....
Bedford wins the POY award, it will officialy have become the MVP of the top team rather than the PLayer of the year.  If you actually look at individuals and a combination of how they played and their stats this would be my ranking:

1- Rhoten
2- Cohen
3- Stockwell
4- Petrie
5- Martin
6- BEDFORD
7- Rose
8- Stone
9- Ray
10- Wheeler/Olson

THe reason that Amherst is the best TEAM is not because of Bedford, obviously he's part of it, but because of the fact that they have 3 guys on this list, and their other 2 starters would be if they were on other teams. 
THere's no way Bedford had the best season, the absolute highest he would be on this list would be #3, no better.

If i had to make a first-team that would play well together it would be:
PG- Ray
SG- Bedford
SF- Petrie
PF- Rhoten
C- Cohen

Stockwell is the biggest Omission, just because he plays the same position as Rhoten, and Wheeler or Rose would be the other top backups because of their ability 2 shoot the 3 off the bench.
