MBB: Midwest Conference

[AppletonRocks]

Why isn't there anything on the Carroll website?  Seems like there would be something there to placate the fans who are concerned.   And is it really true that Steve Schowalter from Germantown High School was a candidate?  One thing he has proven is an ability to recruit players, even in high school.     Conference restrictions may have made this difficult for him to do in the MWC.

Starting up a new part of my blog, and yes I know I've been five months away from it. It's called Story Time with Terry, where I share an interesting story from my hooping days. It will be every Tuesday all year round.

I'm also encouraging any other DIII players, coaches, spectators, announcers, whoever who has their own interesting, unique, uplifting, funny story to share me that story so these story times are not always just about me. It's time to show people what DIII is really all about.

After a year of involuntary internet exhile, I'm finally back online. I could have gotten Charter at my late grandparents house where I was living but installation would have involved rebuilding the house. That being said; I'd like a word with JeffP................

You sold Saints Rests but did not offer me any franchising rights. This is unsatisfactory. Additionally. The recipe for the Roopacinno is my intellectual property so I hope you did not include it with the sale.

2014 MWC Tournament will be at Flood Arena and I am taking advanced ticket orders now.

Thus sayeth the Roop.

Welcome back, The Roop.  You didn't miss a whole heckuva lot this past year.  The good guys had a rare mediocre season on the grid iron, so the board and NCAA football suffered. The Fighting Skrivseths are almost recovered from the Vershawshank Redemption project on the hardwood.  The good girls ran away with the All-Sports trophy, so we are all very pleased with that.  Counting down the days until the bagpipes report to campus.... 

Word has it that JeffP may have cut his ponytail off to avoid being recognized in public by the investors he swindled.

Well, well Mr The Roop; how could I offer franchise rights to someone who could not be reached for a year?
You snooze, you lose!

And contrary to Scottie's assertion that I may have cut off my ponytail to avoid scammed investors, the tail is still there, the goat is longer than ever, and Saints' purchaser is still paying ME despite the allegations. All previous investors (myself) are still trying to locate me...all to no avail.

I'm glad I check in here on occasion; no one else would rise to my defense...if there even IS anyone else reading this summer...

JeffP:  As your favorite song from your favorite band says.....

"Everybody knows your name.  Everybody plays your game.  Telling you what you want to hear.  Telling you their lies." 

Hope you're having a good one.  Let us know when the little one has another appearance on the small or large screen.

Wow. I thought you had something with Terry "The Hawk" Kramer from Ripon drafted by the Nets. Hmmmm. I guess not.

Attn: JeffP. Gone is the 12 year hand me down down G3. Enter the Mac Book Pro.................. All is right with the world.

Does anyone on board here have a fairly complete list of the incoming 2013 MWC recruits and transfers? I am particularly interested in the list for Beloit, but the others are of interest too to me and I'm sure many others.

[The Roop]

I've been offline for over a year Augiefan but Beloit is ready for the DIII Tournament this season. They've had the talent to win for a couple of years, but this team wants to win. I think they will "get er done". How far they go is a matter of how unfairly the committee seeds them. Lose in the first round to the eventual national champion tends to happen in this region.

It's about time to pivot toward the MWC football page.  Here's a sample of what you'll get (featuring a one-time hoopster, so back off!):    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tmIWRMOp94

New Story Time with Terry is up here: http://diiihoopsblog.blogspot.com/2013/07/story-time-with-terry-finding-groove.html

Just booked the room at Days Inn Grinnell for the Feb. 8th game. I figure that's when Beloit will wrap up the regular season title.
