MBB: Midwest Conference

[diehardfan]

Unless she's actually in attendence, you go for Carroll.  I'm rooting for Carroll as well in the first game.

Both of them are orange, school color wise... just wear orange and support both!

Roop, you're officially allowed to call anyone over 30 a hottie. Heck, even just anyone over, say, one year older than me is a big improvement.

I'm looking forward to seeing the MIAA's player of the year, Cramer, take on the Midwest Conference's player of the year, in Carroll's Drury.  Both are guards, coincidently, but I don't see them guarding each other. 

Carroll College

Drury:  32.7 mpg, 75-206 from 3-land, 4.5 rebs, 117 asts, 95 TOs, 39 stls, 20.1 ppg

Hope College

Last five games:  17 pts, 32, 16, 22, and 23

Cramer:  25.9 mpg, 49-113 from 3-land, 3.1 rebs, 51 asts, 57 TOs, 17 blks, 31 stls, 16.3 ppg

Last five games (most recent first):  26 pts, 32, 28, 11 and 12

I have seen both guys play and they are fantastic.  That should be one heck of a matchup.

For Drakes benefit:

I saw them play Bethel at home where they absolutely smoked them, with a big run in the late first half and early second.  Schnettler was on which helped, but they could go inside to Ike, which is what they did badly last night.  I also saw the near brawl game, where they beat St Johns in the regular season finale, and in my opnion they played better in that game, though it was more physical and well it was St Johns.  However if you can get up for a rival, you got to be able to get up for an NCAA Tournament game.

Will post in MIAC room to see where he sees it first.

Thanks for your consent but again you are missing the point. Just because I think somebody is a hottie does not mean I have designs on shagging them. For example a very good friend of mine has an 11 year old daughter who is an absolute hottie. He will have a fine time keeping the boys out of the yard when she grows older. Hottie is a compliment and nothing more.

Stop jumping to conclusions as Tom wasn't talking about you in his last post. I applaud your innocence as it is refreshing in this day and age. However, it does blind you to reality at times. Check your drivers license. It does not say you are 8 years old so stop pretending that you are. I'm sorry if the world is more adult than you are ready to deal with but I didn't arrange that.

I thought my PM the other day had resolved everything but obviously it hasn't. I'm sorry you had the experience you did but it wasn't me doing it. So why am I constantly being singled out as a dirty old man every time I find someone attractive ?? ENOUGH ALREADY.

[diehardfan]

For the love... Mark, that was 100% a joke... as evidenced by the billion smilies. I don't think you're a dirty old man! And I wasn't jumping to any conclusions! Rar! Why do you feel the need to be so defensive.

[The Roop]

Maybe because you feel the need to keep beating the same drum.

[Greek Tragedy]

Do I have to put you two in separate cyber corners? 

Better yet, I'll get both of you guys tickets for the Point sectional and make you two sit next each other! lol

Unfortunately, the answer appears to be yes. I'm more than a little disappointed that Mark thinks so little of me that he thinks I am the type of person would actually make serious comments as rude as that to someone I consider a friend. 

[Scots4]

if you guys have any spare hotties laying around...let me know....

[titan2000]

Carroll is more likely to be a Cinderella than most teams, remember, it is a GIRL's name.

[The Roop]

I did say ENOUGH ALREADY in a previous post. Yet you kept on about it. Perhaps DROP THE SUBJECT would be more appropriate. WWJD................... I doubt he would fault me for finding someone attractive.

This is issue specific and I'm not modifying our friendship just because there is a disagreement. If friends can't argue then they are not friends in the first place. I still regard you in the same manner I always have and don't see how this debate would make you think I feel otherwise.

It's very simple. 1. Because of a previous relationship with an alcoholic don't suggest that I limit my hottie search to barstools because I rarely, if ever, go out anymore. It's offensive to suggest it 2. Hotties can be hotties regardless of their age. Quit making it sound like I'm hanging out by the Jr. High looking for a date. I know you don't mean to do this but you have.

No need for separate cyber corners when there is honesty.

The slipper breaks when they play Point however. To me they're not Cinderella until they get to Salem. MWC has had teams get this far in the past so Carroll hasn't broken any new ground yet.

Um, so is Hope...     And I hear she's a hottie!  Ha ha!

You have simply GOT to get some new material - this is a very stale joke, besides being inaccurate.  Even Archie Bunker would know that with that spelling it is (generally) a male name.

[scottie]

And still nothing on D3HOOPS. Carroll shocks 2 teams,and still not a thing for the MWC.

I wouldn't hold your breath.  Maybe, if they get to the Final Four.

Go MWC!

Just got home, smartass. We got the 7 p.m. games but the 8 p.m. games were still in progress when I left. No Miss Coll, no Wash U, no St. Thomas, no UWSP.

Thanks for putting me in my place, Pat.  It must be nice to be moderator.  Had I used such language, I'm sure I'd have a little "timeout" assessed to my posting priviledges.  Power Corrupts.   

Keep going, Pios!
