Well, I have seen them since asking.

But sure.

HA - thanks for the reminder... I think Susquehanna (as I mentioned the other day) is a team to watch out for in this conference. They have some tough parts to deal with that just haven't been able to come together consistently this season (i.e. losses in games like Drew are puzzlers).

Spenser Spencer is a tough competitor (started every game in his career) and can sometimes put the team on his shoulders and win a game. Harley Sellinger is a tough match-up inside who many struggle to stop (he is shooting .558 this season with 7.0 rpg) and J.T. Wilson (or on someone's stat sheet, Watson) has that outside touch that will cause problems for anyone doubling Sellinger or Spencer.

The problem is, they have who I think is the toughest team in the conference, Moravian, and a team that seems to just find ways to win when the chips are down, Scranton, on their schedule next week. I honestly think they have to go 2-0 on the road (!) to have a chance to play in the post-season... or they may have to sweep Goucher, Catholic, and Juniata (luckily all at home) to stay in the hunt.

Looking at the standings, it appears Scranton can really distance themselves from the rest of the pack with a weekend sweep. Then again, they have looked a gift horse in the mouth before.
What ever happened to posters like Ned Flanders, Lusty Larry and Jaggs?

Sounds like a heckuva battle going on in Bethlehem tonight. Following Daily Item sports editor Bill Bowman on Twitter; lead keeps changing hands.

Greetings from a UC fan. I saw this post (as i regularly check out non Centennial Boards) and wanted to respond. Yesterday i met a friend at the Muhlenberg/F&M game and around halftime we met a few F&M fans, one claiming he used to post on this site as Larry. According to him, he was banned from this site for no reason. It was actually quite comical, but since he also lives in the Northern NJ area as an accountant, we exchanged business cards and hopefully i'll get some referrals out of this. Not sure why the mods would ban someone from a message board, he claimed it was only because he was an F&M fan but i gotta believe the mods wouldnt be that petty.

I found out that Jags got banned for being disgusting, Ned simply stopped posting and two people told me that Lusty didn't do a thing. The two who told me also stopped posting...

Jags was years ago -- board was pretty wild then, completely different place. I'm sure anyone who's upset about being banned will say it was for no reason.

Yeah, but this board can't afford to lose anymore brethren.
BTW, it was me who asked you to ban Jags after he made awful remarks about my late mom. Thanks for that.

Now we are brethren? Didn't know Jags attacked you like that , I think he was Colonel John's mentor...

Hahaha. I doubt it. Speaking of long time posters where has Saratoga gone? He used to give predictions on Royal games.

ronk · February 07, 2012, 08:51:18 PM

Saratoga's still around; I was with him at the Goucher game. He's probably waiting for a change in the Royals' play since his previous comments.

Pat Coleman · February 07, 2012, 08:52:57 PM

I can definitely tell you Colonel John and Jags were not the same person.

But seriously, we have always been on the watch for split personalities, and they did not share an IP address.

The Colonel is probably busy filling prescriptions. I remember a game I did between Wilkes and King's a few years back when CJ yelled a profane remark at the ref directly behind the Wilkes bench. The official thought it was coach Jerry Rckrode and tossed him. Funny stuff ....
