MBB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[WLCALUM83]

Enjoy it if you do make it. IMHO, I hope they win out. If they do, it'll be a great feather in the NAthCon's cap from a PR standpoint.

[WLCALUM83]

MSOE 71, Finlandia 63.   Finlandia cut this one to 4 late, but then MSOE hit their free-throws to seal it.

Final:  Edgewood 96, WLC 90.  (Warriors had it down to 3 with less than a minute, but either couldn't get the defensive stop they needed when they had to have it, or if not that, when they fouled the Eagles, Edgewood hit their free-throws.)

Other 1/27 NAthCon Finals:

Concordia-WI 76, Concordia-Chicago 62. (at CIT Tournament)

Marian 87, Maranatha 53 (Marian had a 51-24 edge in rebounds and outshot the Crusaders all around-per box score on Saber website.)

Dominican 73, Lakeland 72  (Muskies' Ehnert was whistled for a foul and the Stars' R Lettsom hit 2 free throws with no time on the clock in 2nd half--Muskie coach tried to "ice" Lettsom by calling a time-out prior to his second shot--it didn't work.)

1/30/07 Projections:

Aurora over WLC (barring an unforeseen development in the Benedictine game today--Warrior losing run continues.)

Benedictine over Rockford:

Lakeland over Concordia-Chicago:  (More so after today's Muskie loss).

Dominican over Maranatha:  (Stars have momentum.)

Edgewood over Marian:  (Eagles' inside muscle will be the difference--Marian could pull off the upset by hitting 3's like against WLC.)

Concordia-WI over MSOE:  Too close to call. A healthy Murphy for MSOE and this poster gives the nod to the Raiders.

You do a lot of updates and scheduling stuff, do you actually go to any of these games?  Just curious!

[WLCALUM83]

1 1/2 weeks ago I attended the Concordia-Chicago/Alverno women's game. Might make WLC's Winter Festival Games against Maranatha next month as well. Other than that, OS, I just pick one radio feed on nights when they're available and run with it, for the most part, with occasional checks on other in-conference games with available feeds.

So, whatever happened to those crazy posters like The Way, Pannounce, Trey, Bust Ya'll, tommy DeVito, Big Uns and Fishguy, for example.  I sometimes enjoyed their constant trashtalking regarding The Rex, The Edgedome, the bible kids etc.  lol.

I miss them too. They must have all dropped out of college. There is no way any of them graduated.   It's just us old guys who have never moved on. . .

Or what about "ceaza" or "Larry Doby?"

[Pat Coleman]

Looks like Larry Doby tried to re-register a couple weeks ago but he has yet to activate his account. Possibly he tried to create an account with a fake address and didn't get the activation e-mail? Or since he's using free e-mail, they may have filtered the e-mail out.

You get what you pay for with free e-mail.

[Pat Coleman]

Bust Y'All's student e-mail address expired. Looks like he tried to register with Hotmail, but again ... free e-mail, you get what you pay for.

[Greek Tragedy]

Too funny, Pat...but you didn't need to do any research on them, I don't miss them THAT much! lol.    Well, maybe...a bad board is better than a slow board, I guess.

Well, if anyone is still alive, I'm planning on heading down to WLC tonight to see the Great Aurora On the Front Page play.  It'd be fun to meet any of those clowns! lol.    As usual, I'll be decked out in my NY Rangers jacket and purple Pointer hat.
