East Region Fan Poll

[SJFF82]

Fisher guys hate to be called a flash in the pan program, but then have the balls to make statements like these.

Most of these Fisher guys don't know how to handle their success.   

It is well recognized by several posters that this rant by you is a recurring theme of yours...so either you keep forgetting that you have said it a million times or deep down it is your inability to cope with our success that is the real issue here....or maybe a little of both?

Just to back up my argument against RPI a few posts back:

Its so hard to buy into RPI.  I realize they are 5-0.  But the LL is weak once again this season.  RPI was up only 14-0 on Utica in the 4th quarter.  RPI was down 10-7 against St. Lawrence and had to rally in the 4th quarter to win that one.  Look at what Alfred did to Utica and St. Lawrence.  They were up 35-0 on Utica at halftime, then called off the dogs.  They blew St. Lawrence out very badly. 

If Hobart can beat Alfred, the LL will gain more respect in my book.  This will also bode well for RPI since they beat the Statesmen. 

"But the LL is weak once again this season." 

Explain this one for me??  Last year, Union played the majority of the season without their #1 receiver (Angiletta) and with a very banged up #1 running back.  Hobart on the other hand lost by 2 to Rowan in the 1st round.  The year before, Union & Hobart both won 1st round games while RPI beat the E8's new flagship team SJF in the ECAC game.

I didn't mean it to sound that way.  I know the LL is a quality league.  All I'm saying, is that last season and possibly this season, the LL seems weaker than the E8 and the NJAC.  But maybe I'm wrong since I've been wrong many times before.  We'll find out in the post season.

BTW, PG04: I do not want your voting rights revoked...I appreciate the time it takes all the voters to analyze and vote...just have the stomach (LewDogg) to hear and process some critical responses...is not that why the poll gets published...or are we just supposed to stare at it and not comment

When did I ever get defensive about anything?  I haven't been on all day!  You are the one calling for people to have their votes revoked.

I thought my argument against Fisher was well thought-out.  Even Soopah agreed! 

As for RPI... I think they would probably be beaten by Fisher and TCNJ.  However, I have no proof to say that is the case.  Therefore, because of being undefeated and gliding through games, they have earned the 2 spot. 

I think you are the one who needs to cool down. 

PG:  Sorry you misunderstood my post...I was actually "taking-back" my comment about "revoking your voting rights" that was just in jest in the first place, but since Lew Dogg got defensive for you I thought I would apologize in advance...the balance of that post was not aimed at you...it was aimed at Lew Dogg....for whatever it is now worth a day later

I had already forgotten

which team this week do you think should be on upset alert, maybe hartwick or st johns fisher, or maybe even the number 1 team Alfred, Husson is an up and coming program they might give Alfred a scare

I definitely think that Husson has a better defense than the Saxons have faced so far this year.  However, the Alfred offense is very balanced and after looking at some of the comparative scores between the two teams (Hartwick, Utica) I think the only way Alfred loses is if they get caught in the dreaded "trap" of looking ahead.  Always a possibility, but with it being Senior Saterday and the long trip for the Eagles I think the Saxons will pull out the win.

Boxer, Fisher losing to springfield is not much of an upset...springfield is still a great team no matter what their record shows

I think the mighty Saxons need to be weary...Husson will be up for it...and it is very easy to look ahead to the next 3 weeks for the mighty saxons

How is it not an upset?  I thought Fisher was taking on the Patriots in a few weeks?

Never said it was not an upset...not as large as everyone thinks...This is only Springfield's second home game they are still a team to be reckoned with...

SO 'losing to springfield is not much of an upset' doesn't mean what it says?  I thought Fisher was head and shoulders above everyone else and Hartiwck wasn't a fluke?  Is that early excuse preparation?

In my opinion, if Springfield beats Fisher, you're right, it isn't much of an upset, cause it would mean Fisher just isn't as good as you all think.  I'm not saying they're not, i'm just saying, if they DO lose to Springfield, the loss to Hartwick makes sense.

[superman57]

Lew...go look up what springfield was ranked in the begining of the season, go look up who they lost too...Hartwick is better than I want to admit...but springfield still has an All-American QB...
