Didn't know you were an Alanis Morisette fan.

Not really, but I just made that joke Monday to some students and just kept it going.

Oshkosh hasn't been doing well the last couple of years and have so far been a disappointment this year, so T2K has to pick someone who has at least been to the NCAA tourney recently. Plus, he hates Point, and SP beat LU the last two years, so he jumps on the bandwagon of LU to spite the Point faithful. And believe me, we don't care.

Gotcha. Nice points Old School! We're going streaken!!

Just getting back from the STL. The game was about as fun as a 32 point win can be, i.e. it became boring, but still good for the folks in orange. A few replies as I get ready for sleepy time:

Jordis Rocks - a few more bull sessions (emphasis on "bull") with OFS, and you'll be granting Karma in no time.

Early - why not think of a Bon Jovi reference?? I'd do if for you, but see last sentence of first paragraph.

DHF - Stop it. You're making us all blush!

So is the poster's top 25 coming OS? I've been waiting all year.

Probably. I still have a week to think about it! Not sure if I want to overshadow Pat's poll. Deciding on that and if and when I'd do it. I have much respect for "The Man" and don't want to conflict or anything with his work.

If I do it, the first poll wouldn't be out until the new year...something someone suggested last year.

Twas the night before Tip Off, when all through the land. Not a creature was stirring, not even diehardfan. The Red Hawks were stuck in the cellar how rare. In hopes that St. Norbert soon would be there.

The Bucs were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of Roopaccinos danced in their heads. With Scottie in Glennie, and I in The Flood, we'd settled our karma and called not for blood.

When out of the region there arose such a clatter, I went to D3 to see what was the matter. Puget Sound had the upset I knew like a flash, UC-Riverside had wasted their D1 cash.

The Roop · December 22, 2005, 05:39:14 AM

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good smite.

Roop:

That is good for an "applaud", something I never get.

Merry Christmas to all of you, even the Point fans.

Bravo, "The Roop", bravo.

I applauded you for that. I think if you would just leave the past where it's supposed to be and stop talking about your bad experience at Quandt and Super Bowls and all that, things would be a bit different for you. That's all I'm saying. I definitely don't hate you or anything, but you get annoying sometimes with your constant useless banter.

Stick to game reports, constructive criticizism and leave out the personal attacks and life will be grand.

Thats right....Losing streaken!

Especially when you have to come into Alex for your next game....the losses just keep right on coming.

Here's a little Holiday Haiku for all those in red and White

Looks like the redhawks
Miss Becker more than they thought
It sucks to be them

Happy Holidays everyone....even the Ripon fans...

scottie · December 22, 2005, 02:24:09 PM

The Roop: Well done. I had to wait 12 hours since my last Karma vote for you. You're in the positive numbers now. (Just don't get too Roopy and let all of these good vibes go to your Roop, or we'll Roop your Roop.)

Larry-U's haiku:
For staying true to the board,
Positive Karma

The Roop · December 22, 2005, 05:21:59 PM

Scottie,

Did you really go to St. Loius? or was it the Planet Marklar.........

scottie · December 22, 2005, 05:24:32 PM

Yes, I did. And I don't get the reference.

The Roop · December 22, 2005, 06:00:20 PM

Thanks to everyone for the "applauds". I was hoping to parody the entire story with a reference to everyone in the conference, but it quickly dawned on me that rhyming Prairie Fire and Pioneers would be difficult; especially when I'd have to rhyme Pioneers twice.
