MBB: Midwest Conference

[The Roop]

Another to benefit to getting the Pep Band going again is that Pep Band is not a Varsity Sport. Therefore, Beloit could recruit D1 prospects and give them all Band  Scholarships. Start a new Music Theory class and it could meet twice a day for two hours in the gym. I don't think there's a rule against band members participating in athletics.

This would really improve the "D" in a hurry and it's not quite as underhanded as "greyshirting". Snicker snicker................

Does anybody know what happened to Erik Bullock out of Waukesha Tech?  I heard he was thinking about Beloit.

For people who don't know........he averaged almost a triple double and led the nation (DIII juco) in assists last season.

DIII juco?!  How many divisions do they have?

[True Basketball Fan]

Incredibly, there are actually 3 Divisions.  Some are fairly decent....Joliet (IL), Harper (IL), Mid-State Tech (WI) to name a few, but most are not the highest quality of basketball, and that's being nice.

Some of you guys are missing a great season over on the D3football site. 

Jeff P - Tell your gridders to be nice to my Scots this weekend.  If you're a football fan, I hope you enjoy the game.  However, you may be busy selling liquid warmth during that time.

Yup! Sellin' liquid warmth to the Grinnell fans and team members and liquid valium to the Monmouth players. :-)

Market it as "touchdown juice."

Nice football thumpin' by Monmouth over GC, huh? 62-14? I guess we won't have to worry about any more sorry arguements about runnin' up the score in ANY kinda games after this, will we? ;-)

Truly one of the best, most well balanced teams to play against Grinnell in many years. No humiliation here IMHO since GC played hard.

OK, we can go back to basketball now.

[hjmphelp]

Oops! Shoulda stayed for the last 1:45. Score was actually 69-14. :-)

[scottie]

You beat us that game by 76, so we still could have put three more touchdowns on the board...  Ah, let's call it even.   

[The Roop]

Victory margin for Monmouth games will always be misleading as everyone knows  they employ a system that is not real football. Under normal circumstances this would be a 14-3 game and should be considered a very good showing by the Pioneers. 

[hjmphelp]

Was it 76 that year? Wow! I guess they WERE holding back!

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

Roop said something funny guys...give him the love.

[hjmphelp]

What was funny? He was ABSOLUTELY right!!!!!!

I am aroommate for Titan 2000, using his computer without his knowledge.


His demeanor around the house has been misreable for the past 3 months.  He walks around the house saying "damm that Pat Coleman" under his breath.   I decided to search his PC for clues of his distress, and came upon this D3hoops.com site.  Since his karma points drop seems to parallel his loss of self esteem, I am asking this board a favor so we can have our roommate back again.

Will you please provide Titan 2000 some karma points this week.  I am afraid without them we may be seeing the emergency personnel at the house soon. 

I need to sign off before he comes back from surgery--he does vasectomies for a local veternarian.  Hopefully he doesn't see this post soon, before his karna points go up to near level.

Thanks.
