D3 Championship Belt

[magicman]

Pomona-Pitzer successfully defends The-Belt^TM as they defeat Whittier 60-53 to advance to the Championship game of the SCIAC. They will now defend The-Belt^TM against Claremont-Mudd-Scripps in what turns out to be the rubber match between these schools, not only because they split their season series but on January 18th CMS took The-Belt^TM away from PP. On February 21st PP returned the favor and took The-Belt^TM from CMS. The winner of this double rubber match will not only gain yearlong bragging rights in their city and league, but will carry The-Belt^TM onto the Dance Floor for all to see, behold, and dream the ultimate dream.

Claremont-Mudd-Scripps wins the rubber match against Pomona-Pitzer 60-54 and takes possession of The-Belt^TM for the third time since January 18th. The Stags will now bring The-Belt^TM to the NCAA tournament and hope that on March 17th they will be the team walking off the Salem Civic Center Court holding it aloft for alll those assembled to see.

So....why doesn't the board's name have the trademark sign?

Because Pat Coleman's got some kind of weasel repellent.

In my wildest dreams,

CMS plays in Belton in the first round to give McMurry a chance to play for The-Belt^TM.

[David Collinge]

You know, if McMurry somehow wins the national title and, thus, The Belt^TM, we may never see It^TM again.

Holy crap. Ralph's evil plot has been discovered!

If McMurry wins the National Championship, I will a new "The-Belt^TM"!

Well, I was going to send you guys a picture of CMS with The-Belt^TM, but I can't figure how to attach a picture.
Anyways, it is pretty special--but very slippery.
Too bad the Legal Weasel is not on the team.

I'm not sure this is appropriate for the D3 landscape Ralph.



Our Legal Weasel^TM probably has an objection or two.

The Committee must have been reading this message board.  CMS is on the opposite side of Right Lower Bracket from McMurry.  We will have to get to the Elite 8 to see The-Belt^TM.

Of course, as always, The-Belt^TM has guided the hand of the NCAA committee, and has said, "Lo! Bring me back to Wisconsin, so I may show St. Thomas and the others in the Midwest what they have forsaken. And so it was written. And so it shall be done."

The Legal Weasel^TM has hired a private security firm to be in charge of transporting The-Belt^TM

These guys are a serious bunch, this is not a laughing matter.



Here's an exclusive image as they prepare to ship The-Belt^TM to Whitewater.  They wanted a little extra space just to haul The-Belt's^TM lustrous glory.

Is it really safe to have The Belt^TM being protected by a group that can be defeated if they a) laugh too much or b) be erased from existence with a mixture of acetone, benzene, and turpentine?

[cmsme]

Before you guys get too excited, CMS wll be providing all necessary security (in consulation with the Legal Weasel^TM.
