Thanks, LogShow -- the BB board is definitely a kinder, gentler place.   (At least until the games begin ;))

It should definitely become a little fiestier (sp) in a couple of weeks as the non-con games begin!  I am so looking forward to seeing the Bucs in real action soon.

Isn't Whitworth on the road until January?  Or do you follow them to their tournaments?

We do occasionally hit non-con stuff, and this year we are doing the San Francisco tournament...on the way to Maui (sorry had to throw that out there).  We are always at the home games as well.

I was planning on being nice at least until conference games started. :D   

As hard as it will be for me, I will root for the pirates, pios, bearcats, etc. I will do so in hopes that the NWC can improve its QWI and strenght of schedule and maybe get 2 teams into the tourney, because we all know if that happens at least one of those teams is going to put together a nice run. To bad the NCAA would probably match our 2 teams up in the 1st round. Cheap skates...
There are two kinds of people that I can't stand: People who are intolerant of other peoples' cultures... and the Dutch.

Two teams from the NWC would be great!  If both UPS and WW take care of business in non-conference and then each have say 2 losses in conference...i could see that potentially happening.  It is unfortunate but it is the nature of the beast that teams with close proximity will be matched up early in the NCAA.  That usually is the case, just ask the SCIAC.  It would be idle if one team could get sent to Texas and the other like Wisonsin...probably won't ever happen, but one could hope.

OK LogShow, I'm on board with that.  We cheer for the NWC teams at least until the conference games start.  That gives the NWC more clout when it comes to playoff time.  Besides, who wants to beat losers?  No sport in that -- we'll all win in the preseason and then come back to beat each other up?  Deal?

I'm definitely on board with that!  No use in having a bunch of NWC teams limp into conference play with a beat up record.  It's always best for atleast a few of us to have a great preseason, hopefully beating a few of the "power" conference teams in the process.  That lets the voters know right off the bat what our teams are capable of.  I'd love for two to get in the tournament, but I have a feeling we would play each other right away :-\.
I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch too, I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.

Mtnman,

Just out of curiousity who will you be rooting for when UPS and Whitman play?  Are you a die hard Logger fan or are you gonna flip over to cheer on your favorite coach in his new Whitman missionary position?  You seem like a fairly passionate fan do you have any preference or is it not really a priority for you ???

Congrats to Jason Foster on representing the NWC on the Pre-season All-American List.  3rd team, thats great!  Now go out there and make a post-season All-American list and lead the Logs back to the NCAAs.

Very dissapointed that Ross Nakamura is not on that list.  His assist numbers last year should have been enough to make some part of the list.

89 Pirates,

I only saw Nakamura play once last season when they loss to my Boxers in the Grove, so I don't have a lot to go on other than his assists (as you mentioned) to turnover ration is insane, but he only received one point for all conference last year from the coaches (http://www.nwcsports.com/sports/mbkb/2007-08/allnwc), and as solid as a player as he is I don't think he was going to find his name on the pre-season all-american list.

Also 89, other than the "big" description, what else did you like about your Pirates from the scrimmage you saw?

And yes, as Logshow said, congrats to Foster for representing the NWC, hopefully we can have multiple people represent on the more important post-season teams.

Nakamura is solid...very solid. And probably underrated.  It will be interesting to see the type of year he has, i am thinking it will be pretty good.  Don't think his season last year was pre-season all-america worthy.  He did have a great assist to TO ratio...but that will only get you so far in the eyes of the voters.
