Sorry bud, its just a friendly discussion. What would you like to discuss instead?
Show me the Scotchman that doesn't love the thistle!
Show me the Englishman that doesn't love the rose!
Show me the true hearted son of old Springfield
who doesn't love the spot ! ! ! where the Massasoit flows!

I do agree we've beat this one to death...both sides have valid points and I guess we'll see.

Making a break on 800 boys ... someone called it a few days ago - 800 by Noon Tuesday

Indeed, the night crew has been putting in solid days of work....

ok sure,

what team at the bottom half of the E8 with a brightest future? Norwich Hartwick Utica? Also why is it the Empire 8 when there is only 7 teams?

Tough call on those 3 in my opinion...

Hartwick used to be good didn't they?  Utica made some strides in recent years...Norwich I just don't know....I would go with Utica right now.

I just feel sorry for them cause there are four playoff teams ahead of them, i really dont even know where to begin with that. Hartwick does have a nasty QB i hear.

Hartwick's got a good young QB they could build around, if anyone wanted to go there of course....

Utica could be good in a few years, they've always had tough players on D just nothing on the other side of the ball to help them out....

Norwich is a bunch of big, physical guys that would always come at you hard.  They'd hit ya good, but couldnt tackle for beans.  They've got a bigger recruiting base, heck ive heard a ton of commercials on the Radio here in rochester....


If anyone turns it around I'd say Hartwick, they had a pretty sweet offense a few years ago with an opportunistic D.  The system works, they just need more players....

scgrad1999

anyone know why its the E8 with only 7 teams? did a few leave? or does it just sound better that way?

'

It's called the Empire 8 (I believe though someone, anyone may correct me), because the conference outside of Football contains 8 teams (ie. basketball, etc.)

pg04

RIT Naz, and Elmira do not play football...in their place, springfield and norwich do, to keep the automatic bid in the conference.

Well that makes perfect sense I suppose. Ill be back later gentleman.
