Hey D3viewer...what's an "Eagle Empire Game" as appearing on the Brockport schedule? Games played at Eunice Kennedy Shriver Stadium are "Eagle Empire Game"s?

With the Eagles competing in the Empire 8, that seems like it might be a bit confusing for some fans (like Pep).

Pep, no idea..just looked at the schedule page..and what an ugly, confusing hard on the eyes schedule page that is. Neon green,  black, gray...yuck.
Seems to be what they are calling home games..and I agree it's confusing now being in the Empire 8. Because the Oberlin game is designated an "Empire" game as well.< Scratches head>.
My top guess is that what they are calling their fan base now ? The "Eagle Empire " ? If so..it's a bit corny...they are not Emperor Penguins..just Golden Eagles.

Hey, they just have an Empire State of Mind.

That is an absolutely hideous page. Poorly designed, poorly colored, and confusing. Yuck...

Eagle Empire Game....hmmmmm....
Interesting....
Yes the site is rugged to look at, but Im more confused by the lack of using the * or ** as noted at the top.
Hey I guess they are just excited to be in the E8...
Welcome Bport!

Ha Ha..looks like the schedule page has been modified/changed back. Says all home games are Eagle Empire "events" (or EEE if you prefer)..no explanation for what that entails other than a goofyish name.
Looks like someone has been reading our posts .

Much more readable. Good job to whoever changed it.

I guess the whole "events" thing is the issue. However, Eagle Empire makes sense to me.

From the school's website: "Eagle Empire is a program where students get rewarded for attending Brockport athletic events.  Come to designated Eagle Empire Events and earn points. Points translate to prizes."

Looks much better and much less confusing. Perhaps Pat could charge the Eagle Empire a consultation fee for the use of D3football.com posters' expert advice? (Another revenue stream to keep this awesome website afloat!!)  ;)

Now Pep has got to figure out what the heck happened to the image at the bottom of his posts! Yikes!   :-[

I was wondering what had happened, I thought you were uploading an updated photo.

Does anyone know any details about a Fisher scrimmage this year? Last year was at ECC, so is ECC coming to Fisher this year? Any help would be appreciated.
GO FISHER!!!

Some 86 recruits are reporting to Alfred Pre-Season Football Camp today, along with an untold number of returning players. Let the fun begin!

I wonder how many of those new (some old) will make it pass the first week. It was always amazing to see the number of guys come, only to see maybe half of those guys stay by game one and then less than a quarter stay until their senior year.
