the regular season games start next week for just Weds and Sat, then it does not get going until Jan 7th. So put your thinking caps on.

Dips score a 42 point road victory against Juniata per the F&M website. They can prove me wrong & sabotage my pick-em score anytime, but I'll be back in line taking JHU over Dips in Baltimore next round. Maybe this team is better than last year, but once again this is a brutal conference. I just don't see how they can keep up near the top 3 or 4 teams in the standings. Keep proving me wrong Dips.

[Reserved Seat]

97-55 not bad for a road victory
I'll have to see the stats, but F&M may surprise some teams this year.
They currently go 7 deep, so they'll have to develop some depth to ward off any possible injuries.
It's a given I'll be picking F&M over Hopkins.  I hope to be there Tuesday, if I can get out of Reading in time to drive to Baltimore.

Here is the pick-ems for 12/03/08( Conference games)

F & M             @  John Hopkins
Haverford      @  Muhlenberg
McDaniel        @  Swarthmore
Washington   @  Ursinus
Dickinson       @  Gettysburg


Since we have conference sandwiched in between non-conference games. I am going to keep separate tallies for the two. There is Conference games on 12/6 then only 1 more game till the end of the year. This how I tend to have a first half and second half..

1st half all non-conference games
2nd half conference games.

I am not sure that you have my win-loss percentage correct. You may want to check and recalculate if necessary. Thanks.

Folks -

Sorry, I missed getting my picks for 12/29 and 11/30 in. I left town early for the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend before I thought about it.

Here are my picks for the 12/3 Pick-Ems:

F&M  (I saw the Juniata game - Dips were impressive. I will pick this game with my heart over my brain!)
Muhlenberg (I don't have a read on these two teams yet)
McDaniel
Ursinus
Gettysburg (Home court advantage. Otherwise, a very close game)

Good luck to all. Hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday. Regards,

Eric
