Hartwick 0-2 vs nefc

Hartwick 5-1 empire 8

no disrespect to any one just sayin....and for the last time my name isn't randy, lol

Reggie,

I'm pretty sure curry lined up some special needs kids. Im pretty sure 3 of those 5 E8 wins were by a combined 7 or 8 pts. I really don't want to pick on you bro but be realistic...Hartwick 07 was a fluke.

The final score in many of those games were decisive.  they were up 32-23 against Ithaca (who by the way was the best team they faced all year), 21-7 at half time against st. john fisher, and 20-0 against Springfield at one point. They just didn't put those games away like they should of. thats where the experience factor will come into play this year.

Yeah definitely time to let Reggie be with the name stuff, don't want him leaving because of the verbal abuse....it would be nice to have another regular poster not from Fisher, Ithaca, or Alfred.  But dammit am I starting to hate how all new posters go through the must pay extreme homage to Ithaca phase.  IT'S GETTING ANNOYING.  Damn you Ithaca damn you!

all for letting the name go....but booby go back and take a look, it was mostly pridefan and SJF guys ragging on him....so I don't see where the "pay homage to Ithaca" (though everyone should) comments come in.



Well the homage thing was a separate issue, it could just be paranoia but it feels like whenever a new poster comes along they feel the need to just stick something in there randomly praising Ithaca.  HHawks was a perfect example of this, just randomly decided to say hey you know what guys....I know nobody asked but I just really wanted to let you know Ithaca is the best team in the history of western civilization.

Great board action, three new members, welcome to Randy, Pridefan, and saxon deuce (take note of that name for future jokes). Randy seems a little volatile, not sure he'll last, after all there are only ever 10 members of this board talking to each other, but here's hoping anyway....



Ithaca and SJF fans both being reasonable about their chances this season. What max is waiting for is the first Ithaca or SJF poster to predict their team will lose to the other.




I mean God knows it ain't gonna be me....

Max, if SJF was playing at Butterball I would give the edge to the Bombers.  However they are not so its going to be SJF in a squeaker...

I just want to express my extreme dissatisfaction for the dumbing down of springfield's schedule. dropping games against montclair and bport to pick up mt. ida and fitchburg. it looks like the pride are throwing in the towel and are settling for 7-3 seasons (losses to SJF, IC, AU) and ECAC games against the other women's teams in new england.

Alot of it probably had to do with Port moving to the NJAC.  Scheduling conflicts, restriction on non conference games and stuff like that.  I dont think its anything that the Pride did.

Do the new teams all have turf fields?

PrideFan1

i just think they could have found better quality opponents to fill those gaps.

Mt. Ida is a nice grass field, if you like a field full of goose crap....

They have this animal hospital/vet center close by and geese hang around all day and litter the field with it.  

Its not that bad until you have to get down in a three point stance or go to cut a guy and end up getting a facemask full of crap...

haha outstanding. its a good thing my playing days are through. not a huge fan of goose crap. if i was making the schedules for SC i would be going in SJF's direction and go after the big dogs instead of beating up on the chumps.
