Pep-

What is the forecast for tomorrow's crowd @ Merrill? It would be a shame to send Keeley off without a good sized crowd after all he has done for the program.

Admission is free...but the forecast isn't good. Pep knows there will be about a dozen in the band attempting to make music in arguably lip-stick-to-metal temperatures.

Pep will be there and will see to it that Keeley gets one heck of a round of applause in appreciation for his efforts these past three years. He's definitely made his mark at AU. If Keeley is a "Fisher Reject," Pep would welcome more like him. Not only outstanding on the football field, but a fine student as well. Pep sees him in the library ad infinitum. He has a good future in his criminal justice field. And, Pep extends to him an open invitation as a guest performer (on trumpet) with the pep band.

I'll be there '91, no doubt.

When are you rolling into Pittsford?

[fisheralum91]

i have been told by the doctors to be there at 930

looks like happy hour will get cut well short tonight!

Well it is officially Ithaca now..  We have had our first 3 inches of snow this morning and as i type this I stare out my office window to more white stuff falling from the sky.  

ITS BOMBER WEATHER BABY!!!

HE's A MUDDER!


I think MU is worried about Juvon being able to scramble.  Since IC switched their all star guard to the weak side its been hard to get a sack on him.  I wouldnt doubt if we see a lot of Corner blitz from Mount tomorrow.  Their coach keeps talking about how strong the offense is for the bombers.  with all the options we have to attack i wonder if they have yet to decide a defense for the Thudner and lightning.  Then if we go "air welch" on their A$$ what do they do then?  WOOO!! Yeah bombers for putting the FEAR in MU!

Love the enthusiasm Dubbz - and by all means go pound them out there.

However, I must say that I felt the same way about the '06 Fisher Offense, which is head & shoulders above this Bomber offense heading into Alliance IMHO... IE: I was thinking "Who's honestly going to be able to contain them, Robby, Kramer, etc..."
I really must say that the Mt. Union D is no joke - they come to play.

I don't mean to put a damper on things, but I don't see IC moving the ball very much on this defense.

That said...

GIVE 'EM HELL BOYS --- GO BOMBERS!!!

Also, perhaps IC could convince the girls in Dubbz signature to come to Alliance and do that.

Could help.

Edit: I honestly am torn w/ the Hartwick game... for the good of the E8 I changed my prediction.

My scores and picks are on the ATR East column here.

EDIT: To get the URL coding right.

dew- are you overcompensating a wee bit on the wick score?

No. They could score 56 on Curry. Curry plays in a league that isn't that good (Yes, I know PSU and CGA had good seasons). I don't know if Hartwick's D could hold them to 16 points, but that's the fun in picking!

Just saw it... I think that's terrific... and I also think unless they found someone will some awesome credentals, Spartano will give Jellerson a fair shot to return next year. Especially to help with recruiting.. you don't want to get guys and have to tell them that you might not be the coach next year.

[fisheralum91]

that means that they have to make a decision quickly---
