FB: Region 4 fan poll

I wanted to get them on the ballot while I still had a chance, since I suspect they will implode once they get to the tough part of the schedule.

That's really strange voting theory -- I better vote for them now because I think they are going to suck later.

Welcome to our world.

It's once ranked, always ranked here in the NRFP so Mr. Y is just doing his job to cement Kalamazoo as a quality opponent.   

Chuck could be presenting us with another opportunity for a neologism. Just as "to ypsi" means to coax statistical or historical information out of other posters that he's capable of looking up himself, "to chuck" could mean to promote for the sake of novelty a lightly-regarded conference's traditional nonentity that currently sports a gaudy record before it inevitably runs head-first into the brick wall of reality.

Everyone needs some loving so maybe the ypsi approach has merit or maybe on second thought maybe Chuck is practicing to be a politican.

[Gregory Sager]

Oh, I'm not objecting to it at all. Indeed, the part of me that loves underdogs applauds his motives, even if they aren't particularly in keeping with a cut-and-dried ranking of the ten best teams in the region. I just like the idea of coining new terms and expressions. I'm funny that way.

I can't picture Chuck running for public office. It would cut too deeply into his d3boards.com time.

[smedindy]

It's odd - I have angst because I have to keep out a few teams here that may be worthy. Denison, Franklin, Hope, Wheaton (now). But I never even thought of K'Zoo. I would rank Olivet ahead of them, probably.

Sorry guys, I'm sure I'm the hold up on the poll.  Stupid tax deadlines need to be outside of football season only!  I am finalizing now and sending to Wally.

That's usually me being the holdup since I work Sunday and Monday.

You should probably send your taxes to the IRS and not to Wally, but I'm no CPA so what do I know

I figure if Wally understands the pool C stuff then tax regs shouldn't be too difficult for him!  wally_wabash, paid preparer has a nice ring to it.

Wally, what's your going rate for financial/tax advice?

The IRS grades out pretty well in the primary criteria:
- win % (1.000)
- results vs. regionally ranked opponents (all wins, all monkey stomps)
- SOS ranks only 4th nationally, somehow trailing three WIAC schools

Who can forget in 1931, when they took down Al Capone, the juggernaut previously believed to be unbeatable? #upsetofthecentury

I had an out of town hearing that kept me from being timely with my ballot. I just turned it in. Apologies if I'm the beaver in the stream of commerce here.

[wally_wabash]

I haven't filled my NRFP ballot out yet, so it's probably me that we're waiting on.  I was surprised with a birthday weekend in NOLA and am still half-zombie.  I'll get the ballots tabulated and posted tonight. 

On a related note, there's not much that will make you more acutely aware of how old you are like a birthday weekend in NOLA.  LG, you were missed brother!
