MBB: Landmark Conference

saratoga · January 27, 2011, 02:19:44 PM

Tony S. of "The Soprano's". Hope I win 2 tickets to the Scranton/Catholic game.
Speaking of Scranton...I've just read where Dunder-Mifflin has decided to bring Will Ferrell in from HQ to help ease the pain of the Scranton branch as Michael Scott moves on. He should be classic in that role.

Actually you win a trip to tomorrow night's Drew game where you can see the sights and sounds that made The Soporano's famous before you and 1 guest enjoy a Landmark Conference showdown!

The Drew game is Saturday.

NEPA: I've already purchased my Drew tickets from Stub Hub back in November as I was expecting an overflow crowd in Madison.
The case of cold ones is correct, that game is Sat.
If the winning tickets are for Friday's game at MMA, perhaps you can put them on E-Bay...I'm sure they'll bring in top dollar.

Looks like the Long Center will be packed tomorrow for basketball. Unfortunately, the Royals will not be playing there. A high school game between Scranton & West Scranton will be held there & the old house should be rocking.
Probably more dunks & fast break points in this game than the Long Center has seen since the days of Irv, Phil, Miernicki, Maher & Connelly.

Mr. Sunshine strikes again!

Is it me or is the video camera operator for MMA tonight a little tipsy? Every view is off center.

ronk · January 28, 2011, 08:33:17 PM

Off-center is being generous; the near (right-hand) basket barely is shown in the upper left corner;most of the picture is the area behind the basket. It was that way for the women's game also. Hope they steer their ships in the merchant marine better than they operate a camera.

What a strange night. Drew wins in 3OT, Scranton gets blownout by a team Catholic beat on the road, Goucher handily beats Juanita, and Catholic smokes a Susquehanna team that had beaten them, albeit on something of a freak play, a couple of weeks ago.

The Royals were lackadaisical tonite; didn't seem to play with any passion, except Tim Lavelle. Couldn't blame it on the 2nd game of the weekend, either. Reminiscent of the conference championship game with MMA last year.
Caught the OTs of Moravian-Drew; Drew got contribution from 6'11" player who took up a lot of space.

Welcome back Brian. Where have you been?

Thanks..never left, just didn't have much to offer to the conversation

Was able to take in the JC Goucher game tonight...lotta defense/not alotta offense depending on how you look at it...in the end Goucher athleticism was the difference with Yambor making some tough shots...Trae Lindsey could be a real beast if he hits the weight room (even more then he has) and works on his footwork.

JC has their work cut out for them tomoro

Home court sweeps the nite.

NEPAFAN · January 29, 2011, 01:39:28 PM

Who would have thought, with a win today Drew is in striking distance of first place. Maybe they'll be burned out after three OTs.

So who won the Scranton - West Scranton battle?

You mean Scranton got blownout by a team Catholic beat on the road?
Yikes! How bad will Scranton lose when they play at Catholic.....oh, wait a minute.

Not Scranton's best weekend 0-2 on the trip.

Meanwhile Catholic is blowing people out.....getting a bit nervous.
