FB: Midwest Conference

[Old Fighting Scot]

Paws Lick,

Just wait til next year.  You guys got beat, there is nothing u can say to deter the snowball effect which is SCOTS NATION!! 

The recent post are a direct reflection of the 6th oldest football rivalry in the U.S.  Duke-NC, USC-ND, Moreno Valley-Valley View (southern cali, h.s. football-a special place in my heart) have got nothing on Knuck Fox-MC. 

The atmosphere will be electric and the consumption of alcoholic beverages has been so rampant that it has been rumored that some people have become inebriated (sp?) from osmosis, or immaculate consumption, just from being around the game.

Also i hate to say it, but the Knox Bowl is a very unique place to watch football, and a great place when the scotties are stomping out the prairie fire.

MC is no flash in the pan, three losses in the last three years, and only getting better, the program is becoming more complete and we will only become more dominant.  it will probably be a great MC-SNC rivalry for years to come, b/c MC is here to stake their claim to the MWC.

if i wanted to be obnoxious i would bring up the numerous times in the past 5 years that MC couldve and maybe shouldve beaten SNC before this illustrious year.

MC Football in 05, whether Paws Licker likes it or not!!!

04 - SNC 55-19 at MC
03 - SNC 38-15 at SNC
02 - SNC 28-21 at MC
01 - SNC 31-7 at SNC
00 - SNC 45-0 at MC

Before a win this season, the Skirts have been outscored 197-62.
During this stretch,  I see one game you were in.  Suprisingly enough, I believe that was the game O'Grady ran for a school-record 200 and some odd yards.

197-62.  Wow!   There's no rivalry here champ.

O'Grady ran for his record in 2000 Meacher.  That was the same year we held our "conference rivals" to one play on our side of the 50 yard line.

And it was 283 yards in about three full quarters.

I guess this would be the time to say that the views expressed by some of the posters on this board don't necessarily reflect the entire population they represent...or something like that.

Greg - by now you should know that I am a realist.  And, whereas I am overly excited about this season and proud of our accomplishments in recent years, I am still taking it (basically) one game at a time.

With that said, your comment about the Monmouth fans making a$$e$ out of themselves only brings back memories of how the rest of us must have felt reading all the SNC posts over the last few years which used to take up 75% of this board.

The challenge I pose to Monmouth Nation is to win with some dignity.   When it comes to the post season, I've always rooted for the MWC representative regardless of what color they wore.  I would hope that the rest of you would do the same.

CHEERS

The addition of Wartburg to Monmouth's schedule was mentioned on this board a few weeks ago. 

Sorry. I don't visit the whining boards quite as often.

[scottie]

Mr. Coleman, you forgot to copy the rest of my sentence - when I JOKINGLY implied that our moderator was incompetent. 

Oh well, another MWC putdown by the site administrator...  It's starting to get old.

"Possibly Scottie's last post in 2005!"   

[PapaSmurf]

    Monmouth plays at SNC in week 6 of the 2006 season but you knew that already, didn't you Pat?

[FloridaScot]

Dear SNC fans,
Riddle me this.
Who are yall playing in the play-offs?
Thats right, Beeelow me.
Now any way.
"HIGH ABOVE THE HILLS OF GALESBURG."

[FloridaScot]

"THERES AN AWFUL SMELL"

[Pat Coleman]

PapaSmurf, what, me?

Yes, St. Norbert's schedule is posted on its web site. I may have been informed of its contents before I made my post.

If I move back to the Midwest it will be easier to see MWC games. But then again, I hadn't seen a SCIAC team or an HCAC team or a CCIW team before they came out to the east coast in recent years either. If a team comes out this direction I make an effort to get to see them in person.

Scottie, I got the joke, just didn't feel the need to repeat it.

[Early]

Hostility
Why can't we all just get along?   

Just keep our cool  8)

Peace, love and.....ok I couldn't keep it going. 

Greg, MC is having a great season.  And SNC has been dominant in MWC football history and yes SNC fans do brag about it.  Just as MC fans are now.  If Ripon was undefeated and ready for a playoff run I would be braggin about it too....so it all is relative.

[meachscribe]

That's already been established.  Great season - awesome team - let's get drunk - turkey - haikus - fairies







Sorry about the spaces. Your mom called. She wants her titties back.

[Maverick]

Wow!  Everyone's back to being pissed off at each other again.  You got anything to calm these people down Early?

Ninja just jumped straight out of left field with his first ever post--pretty sure that regardless of rain or not, Monmouth will roll over Knox and remind them of just how bad they are at this great game.

FloridaScot - It remains to be seen as to where the Scots will be in the playoffs.  Could be anywhere from here to Wisconsin to the west coast.  Still too many important games left to be played in alot of other conferences.  You should definitely hop a plane and find your way to it though; rumor has it that the skinny wide receiver with the freakish shoulder is going to be making the trip also for the first round game.

ccfan69 - It's good to see someone outside of Scots Nation actually says they're a good team and not just some fluke team or something like that.

Some of the SNC fans - Sounds like sour grapes to me.  SNC had their shot and blew a 20-7 lead with around 17 minutes left in the game.  If the new D-coordinator was the problem, then why did the Knights have little troubles holding the Scots in check for the most part during the first half and the majority of the 3rd quarter?  MC stayed the course throughout the game, never got impatient with the gameplan, made the plays when they needed to, and pulled out a great road win.

MCGramps97 - Will be sure to keep an eye out for you and your students at the Knox Bowl on Saturday.

scottie - They don't realize that saying things like that about the MC posters (making asses of ourselves while talking about our team) is like the pot calling the kettle black.  They did it all the time, now it's our turn to brag on our team for awhile.  I suggest that if someone doesn't like reading what the MC fans post and discuss about this quality Fighting Scots team, don't come and check the boards--sound fair enough?   Just more sour grapes because that dynasty from 1999-2004 is done with and there won't be a trip to the playoffs this season. 

Damn, that's alot of typing trying to keep up with how much the board rolled over today.  I'm outta here...  PMS!!!

Congrats to MC's Justin Zigler for making D3 team of the week.
