I don't think Parent is a bad apple, just way too emotionally consumed to realize how far a stretch he was making.  At least he was able to put together retorts (as flawed as they were) for the most part, as opposed to resorting to petty namecalling and yelling.

Tim(whimper), that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me... :'(. I love you man!

Sorry for the drama guys. There are still things I just don't understand about the evaluation metrics. I'll pick that up another time, if I'm allowed.

Tim, you're right that I'm emotional- too much for my own good. It's the torch I carry! lol But just so we're clear, I'm right and you're wrong.  ;D

Good luck and hope to talk soon. BEAT UMHB!!!

Congrats to Centre for earning their berth in the playoffs. Now schedule TLU next year to avoid the drama that needlessly played out on this board.

I get to buy at least one more general admission ticket! Early Christmas present.

Go Colonels!

Glad you guys got in.  10-0 is 10-0.  Good luck in the playoffs.  Enjoy it, not everyone gets to.

Thomas More - it's a 2.5 hour drive instead of Texas.


Congrats to Centre - you got your work cut out up at John Carroll.

Thank you sir. Good luck to Wesley!

Thanks SaintsFan. It's a great opportunity right? Maybe we can play that game the third week of November next year.

Second time I've seen this.  I guess you could call it drama.  And to think this whole time I thought we were actually discussing the merits of who actually deserved the Pool B bid.   Most of the back and forth last night was actually in clarifying numbers to see how much a difference there actually was in SoS between the two teams, and I thought in good spirit.  I actually reworked my numbers a couple of times based on the back and forth.  Seems a couple of you just feel that anyone who differs from your opinions are nuisances.  Speaking of those projections, I'd say I wasn't homering at all.


              Projection            Actual
TLU          .513 (92)          .510 (97)
Centre     .442 (208)         .440(213)

I would like to see the contingent of Centre fans stick around after all this is said and done.  I know Pat would say the same.

Agreed! Absolutely.

Tim - I have no idea what you're talking about. I just received an email request to access the spreadsheet I created. I'm not at a computer where I can share it. So I just attached it and emailed to you, along with a nice, friendly note.

Then I see this post. So I'm confused. I'll briefly summarize my note- Congratulations on first bid! These are exciting times. As I told my nephew who plays at Centre: You're not only among the 32 finalists out of 240 (?) or so D3 teams playing, but you're one of 8 best teams that were selected after the AQ. I also told him that there were several teams not invited who very well may be better than any of his opponents this year. So feel good about this.

And again, I wish TLU success not only against UMHB, but also in putting together a conference of 7-8 teams in Texas with an AQ and therefore less stress in scheduling and figuring out "the magic formula" that impresses the different committees each year.

No drama. I mean it from the heart. Life is good! Good luck!

Homering response was to a lesser extent towards the drama RE Knezek and to a greater extent....  Sorry for confusion.  And yeah, don't know about the spreadsheet.  I tried to look at it by going back, but said I didn't have access.

Thanks Pat. If I haven't worn out my welcome, then I would like that.  :)

Oh-gotcha. Access issue probably caused when I moved to another Google Drive folder w/o permissions. Hopefully you got the email.

Just to address part of this D3AP, the odds of a Texas D3 conference are not good, although I wish it would happen for multiple reasons. TLU basically just left the ASC and Austin College left about 5 years ago so there is no reason for them to come back.

Tekken

Yeah, the only real hope is for the SCAC and ASC to split the Texas/regional teams in half to accommodate both leagues an AQ.  However, there is no way that happens, they are too far away philisophically and in profile at this point.  The SCAC champ will be hoping for an AQ for the foreseeable future.
