FB: Midwest Conference

Blu I can tell you just two weeks prior I had IC in a virtual tie for first after beating Ripon. It was a long hard fall in the past two weeks.  Remember its not how you start but how you finish. That will be the true test of your chili as well. In regards to Knox I believe early in their history they were looking for a suitable name to go along with "The Prairie". They came up with fire but since they really haven't been hot in anything for over a decade now I suggest a name change is in order. I suggest either the Prairie Dogs or the Prairie Dough.  The Dogs is pretty self explanatory, however, the Dough would give justification for the "Knox on the rise" proponents. If I was a bit more tech savy I would post one of those polls as to what Knox's new name should be. Are there any other suggestions? Maybe if we get a few others Roop would be kind enough to post a poll for us.

First, never encourage Roop...  

Second, my complaint was more tongue in cheek.  I'm pretty old school.  When you don't show up, you aren't deserving.  I don't coach or play for the Blueboys.  I only saw the game on-line, but IMHO, they really didn't show up and play to the best of their abilities.  Thus, a drop from 2 to 7 is not unfair.  That is why on my "mini-manifesto", I stressed that winning is an attitude.  I have some insight in to the potential for the development of a winning attitude.  Call it a historical perspective. Your assessment is not being challenged, here.  But mark this down: I don't see what happened at the end of this season, happening next season.  

[Moncolfan]

Blu I agree with you 100%.  I don't see that happening either because there is no way IC will be tied for the conference lead with two weeks to go.

[The Roop]

Why stop at a Mascot name change ? Change the school name too. I can see it now....... The Jacksonville Jack Everyones

Absolutely! I agree.  It'll be an outright lead...

Hey! Don't go there.  Nobody messes with Jack...

[The Roop]

Maybe you don't know Jack.............. 

I think I've got a poll that will allowed to stay up. Gimme a minute or two.

[The Roop]

As a control, to not skew the data, I will not participating.

[gbpuckfan]

I voted for the Mt Union option....

No sense in complaining about SNC's likely #8 seed...

[scottie]

Given MC's tough playoff match-up last year, and likely another challenging bracket for them in the playoffs next year, I'm inclined to argue for the robust West bracket.

I'm new at all this.  So, Scottie, with an at-large bid, will the Scots get an even tougher match-up than the Blueboys will with their MWC championship seeding?  This is important as I develop my manifesto...

Wait - did I miss an NIT being formed for D3? Because St. Norbert will be going to the NCAA tournament again next year.

Puck: You would be well-advised to seize the day.

The d3football.com projection has SNC at Wartburg ... part of the St. Thomas bracket. Must make the Green Knights a 7 seed and the orange Knights a 2 seed.

Regardless, it's not Whitewater.

HALLELUJAH!
I hope Pat & crew is right!

Sound advice.
