MBB: Landmark Conference

[kate]

Thank you, Lefty!  Plus "k"   Exactly what i was thinking.   Thank you, too, to Gordon.

Actually, Lefty, my comment was NOT aimed at you.

Look, I don't want to get into some sort of message board war here, but I do find it curious that it's OK for a poster to come onto the Landmark board frequently and snot about "like-minded" institutions and how "some" ex-members of a different conference are missed and others are not, yet when I speak positively about the conference my alma mater is currently in, that's not OK (as evidenced by the karma dings I've taken).

Like I said, if you love the MAC, that's great. Yak it up on the MAC board then. If you want to tell us, as a member of the MAC, that E-town is a great or bad conference-mate and add that to the Landmark discussion, groovy.

But just because someone on the Landmark board says they prefer being in the Landmark to being in the MAC, or shares the news that a MAC member is moving to the Landmark, does not mean anyone has to come into the Landmark board waving the "rah rah MAC" and/or the "Landmark sucks" flags.

Of course, I am not Pat, or a moderator period, so this is naught but my humble opinion.

Just love the terms "snot"  &  "groovy"

On an unfamiliar computer when i just posted the previous comment, but now on mine - The Reason i miss Scranton & Drew is BECAUSE they were in the Freedom.   I didn't even know Susquehanna and Juniata.   I do however know Moravian very well as it's in the town immediately next door to Easton.   I didn't say a word on here about E'town that was derogatory.  And yes, how did you know my allergies were bothering me, so you could use the term "snot" i suppose.   I believe in the formation of new leagues for few reasons, two being geographic and financial.   Anyway - people don't read rants - just be thankful others are on your site - nothing worse than wallowing in obscurity.

Grove:

You're overlooking the post that Lefty2 mentioned and the one that drew Kate's response.

With E-Town officially gone, perhaps the MAC will add like-minded Penn Tech to fill their void.

That's obviously a shot at the MAC since Penn Tech is basically a two-year technical school.  When someone makes that kind of post, there's going to be a retort, regardless of the room.

NEPA,
  Nice catch; 2 of them(York,Salisbury) were prospects that I tried to interest in the Royals.

[gordonmann]

Wow! That's a really cool website.

Another Susquehanna fan has invaded Scranton territory! The Grovelette arrived last Monday, 7 pounds 11 1/2 ounces, 20 inches. She even got her first publicity in Marty Myers' Sunday T-T column.

Good timing-born in the slow offseason; hopefully, she'll be sleeping thru the night by ball season. good health to mom and baby!

Damon Brooks(Goucher) update:
   At my health club yesterday, I saw a guy wearing a Damon Brooks t-shirt from the fund-raiser game and asked how things were going; he said Damon has made progress and there is hope for more in the future.
