But as a Sox fan, you have the second-highest payroll in baseball, so that's not really an astute analogy anymore.

Max.. ahh... to know the heartache that goes along with being a sox fan....

P.S. what does your sig mean? I know it's a goof on Gatto, but how is Chicago involved? A good 70s band, IMHO.

Saterday! In the park! More of a Saterday joke than a Chicago joke.

Hey my karma's almost back up to where it was before I started posting on the NJAC... hallelujah. Thanks be to all.

The fact that the SC posters have disappeared is pretty disappointing.  It was pretty predictable givent that they waited to make it to 7-0 before making a post but, what is the fun of stomping someone when you can't taunt them afterwards?

Interesting statistic for those yankee fans. Since the last yankeeworld series title in 2000? 2001? cant remember which one, George Steinbrenner has spent over $9,000,000 on free agents per Espn

AU Pep Band....sounds a lot like Chicago...in my dreams.
In reality, I wish I hadn't dropped my kazoo on Saterday.

AU Pepband- listened to the game on the radio on saterday.  Heartbreaking.  Cant believe niche fumbled that ball.  I was up and down like a bipolar danny bonaduce in a matter of a couple minutes (VH1, no?).  I wanted to raz him a little but refrained cuz of the outcome.  Still played well though, and who knows.  Maybe some magic on Saterday.

Down goes Springfield
Down goes Alfred (not surprised as previously predicted,not that it's going out on a huge limb)
Down goes Rowan (never mind seeing that)

B27, I tuned in briefly to the ICTV webcast and you got some nice air time standing along the fence with the older scalice, you must be very proud.  I think the ICTV broadcasters are good, they throw out a lot of stats, but someone get those guys some coffee, they need to have a little more emotion, it's a football game fellas not a funeral..

I don't buy FA91's argument of the game being different if IC doesn't have a bye week.  Ithaca has seen Springfield's offense as much as, if not more than, anyone.  Yes the field slowed them down, but they played good assignment football from what I saw and shut them down.  Springfield might want to recruit a kicker, and so should IC while we're talking about it.

[fisheralum91]

whoah sparky,
that wasnt my argument...
alum yes---91  no

go back and reread!

Max, Jose,   good job on NJAC... Jose, love the signature.  +K all around

Love the Dubbz +2K.

Do we have an early weather report for Merrill Field Saterday?

There will be LOTS of it on Saterday:
Snow Showers
Lo 27°, Hi 39°

Nestled away 'mid the Empire State hills,
'Neath the watch-care of sentinel pines,
Where the murmuring song of the brook hums along,  [Kanakadea Creek roars behind Merrill Field home stands after heavy rain]
And a favoring sun ever shines;  [They call it the Alfred Sun 'cause it only comes out once a week.]
In a valley so fair where the forest trees share
Dominion o'er hillside and glen,
Stands the pioneer college of Western New York
Alfred, we hail thee again.

Hail to thee Alfred, thou guide of our youth
Sweet benign Mother, all hail.
Sing out thy anthems of beauty and truth!
May thy clear, ringing music ne'er fail.

The Kaz00 is still smarting from Saterday's loss.  Watching Kaz00 Jr. tear up PepBand's house at the after-game was a nice pick-me-up, but doesn't feel as good as a win.

Congrats to Hobart; it was a well played, exiting game from the start.  And you could tell how important it was for both teams by the reaction on the Hobart sideline when the ball hit the turf on fourth down.  It was frustrating to be a Saxon fan though.  It was one of those games where seemingly every close call went the other way.

Here's to hoping that Alfred can pull out a win on Saterday and give meaning to the finale against Fisher!
