I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to this question, but I'll ask anyways.  Does anyone know if you can get the MWC TV deal on a single game basis rather than an entire package?  Someone help me out...

Mav - It's easy.  Just give yourself a few extra minutes to punch in all of the credit card info, etc.

Lake Forest is on the board....

There's gotta be a "fair-weather-fan" comment coming soon, but I'm surrounded by snow right now and can't process anything related to fair weather.

Yeah, rah, MWC!!

Sounds like Maverick just flew by the log in.  Yes Maverick single games are available for $5.95 but you need to create an account with PennAtlantic before you can order them. Just click on the game you want and it will take you to the create an account page. And don't forget MWC Swimming and Diving Championships from Grinnell are also available for only $4.00

I did not say that he was honorable mention because he was a whining machine--I said I thought he was honorable mention and also a whining machine.  Both are my opinion.  Read more carefully before you threaten.

T2K

I'm not sure why you would feel threatened...

The only two comments you made about Davey were that he was a whiner and that he was no better than honorable mention. Since you gave no other justification, I presumed that the two ideas in the same sentence were related. I don't think that's a huge leap. Regardless, I asked for a justification. I'd be interested in how your opinion was formed; I could give you reasons why I think you're wrong, but I thought it was more appropriate to give you a chance first.

Sorry if you find that threatening.

System of the Down 86:

I just think that there are others--to include Grotberg--who deserve to be 1st team way ahead of Arsenault.  The whining isn't the reason.  I think Grinnell would be fighting for an MWC tourney spot without Grotberg.  I think they would be in without Davey as others on the team can pass the ball too.

I hope we get to Grinnell for the tourney--even better if we get to Ripon.   Ethanol isn't free in Wisconsin.

I got a call today from just west of Omro today.  We bet on tonights contest. loser has to buy dinner for 4 at the Club Omreau, the finest dining restaurant near Ripon as it was explained to me.

Never been there, looking forward to a fine meal on this foolish Redhawk.

[lake forest]

not a fair weather fan, i have been throught the absolute worst and the best at Lake Forest.  Just sick and tired of no one posting about the foresters and the comment by scots4 was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.  so now, hopefully, i can chime in the conference race on a regular basis and contribute an educated and truly biased opinion like everyone else does on this board.  

[The Roop]

Of the 57 points scored in the first half of the STN-BC game STN has 63% and BC 37%. So Beloit only needs to do 14% better in the second half to win.

[fightintitan2006]

35-22 SNC if my math is correct?

[scottie]

Clicking into the webcast to watch the last 12 minutes...

Another barnburner in Glennie Gym.  Knox 65, Monmouth 64 with about 5 minutes left.

[scottie]

71 - 68 Good guys with 2:00 left.

p.s.  Lake Forest, we're NOT biased!

[scottie]

73-70 Monmouth

Still mathematically alive!

[The Roop]

 SNT 61% BC 39% obviously Beloit didn't improve enough in the second half. Total points was 123.

[LFCBBall07]

I am also here to help out Lake Forest, I have watched this for a number of years and watched the LFC program closely, so I would figure I would also add my thoughts.

[tubgirl]

So, SNC and MC are winners.
Anybody have a RC/LC update?

[fightintitan2006]

LU won big , dont remember the exact score, but  by 12 or 15
