Just a little FYI for the E8PP community, the Alfred-Husson game appears to be starting at noon on Saterday instead of the 1 o'clock listed on D3football.com.

Thanks for the almost heads-up.

BTW, you can WATCH the Springfield/St. John Fisher game. It's our D3Cast game.

You know what you should do SJFF82, in your signature you should keep all of the NO's in CAPS and emphatic and then put the yes for Hartwick in a small small font with lower case letters....I think it would be the classy thing to do.

And thank goodness for the D3cast game so I can watch it here, really didn't want to drive to Springfield.  God bless D3football.com

My comment was not meant to say that Hartwick is a fluke or anything like that...my comment was to get admrial off of his insane concept that in the first week if a team beats a ranked team then we should swap them in the polls...I believe that hartwick is for real and that their loss to WNEC is in fact a fluke

sorry to get everyone riled up...just trying to prove the admrials claims were flawed...as I have stated before I don't think teams should be ranked untill weeks 3 or 4...but if thats not gonna happen...then for the most part I think that the pollsters get it right...last year Fisher did not start ranked...they had to earn it and they did...

Soopa, that is what pissed me off, either you weren't reading my post or you were reading the wrong thing into it. There is no way in hell I would say that 'wick belonged in the top 25 even after the IC and SJF wins.

My point is that the polls are somewhat based on a teams past history, based on lack of information. Look at the preseason E8 poll, the exact order of finish from the previous season?? Also what I believe in particular for 'wick is that the big wins only puts them on the radar, they now have to follow those up with a strong finish this year and a strong start next year and then for what is worth maybe they'll get into the top 25.

But quite frankly in D3 the polls don't mean that much to the playoffs.

the comment about wick is not at all directed towards Yanks or BoSox as I like the two of them and they make great posts...My comment is directed towards Adrmial...so I apologize to bosox and yanks for lumping you in that comment  and no I have no issue with wick beating fisher...

I'll challenge you to show me one post from me where I was bashing another team or poster or where I was just gushing about 'wick being the greatest of all time. You can't

[admirals_vt]

Soopa I just got done reading all the pages since I last posted. Sorry I missed all the yanks sox talk, because you and I are on the same page baseball wise. You ought to try dealin with friggin red sucks nation up here. They all need a .... what did you call it - donkey punch

To be honest I was getting a little concerned myself. Back when I first started posting he looked up my e-mail address and was getting information on the company I worked for and the town it was in. We have to be careful up here in VT, you never know when someone is looking for a quick Civil Union.
If he starts quoting show tunes and decorating tips, I'm out of here.

Let's go INDIANS!!!!!!!!!!

Let's go INDIANS!!!!!!!!!!

Not to start up the baseball talk again, but why aren't either teams going back to their aces in Game 4?  With the extra off day between Games 4 and 5 that would set up their ace to go on regular rest in a Game 7.  Granted you don't know what Beckett and Sabathia will give you on 3 days rest, but you'd get your two best pitchers into 5 games with only 1 of those on short rest.
