52 rpi bro, 38 last season.

Lol @ throwing me in mon comment heh.

You say things like "bro." You also have ridiculously unbalanced classes... I don't care what your prestige is, that's wholly unimpressive. I also remember hammering you when you were at Montclair St., while you were busy weezing Mulder's talent to an appearance in the title game, only to enthrall the rest of the Wooden D3 coaching collective by posting the entire freaking play-by-play into the Dynasty thread, because none of us would have slept without it.

I hate to sound like a mother in a fight- can you take it elsewhere so the new guy can get some advice instead of watching this?

I agree Asher.

That doesn't help, pirates. And for the record, I tend to agree with emy on this one. Not to say you shouldn't have a voice here, but I think new people need to have trusted advice. The last few times I've seen you give lineup advice, there have been some serious questions as to your logic. In this case, I question why you would suggest starting a PF that should logically be cut over the guy who should start (Kolosky is a vastly better rebounder, blocker and shooter; MacMillan is a 19 LP for crying out loud). I might give you Woodward at SF, but Frost would be my choice simply because he is a better spot shooter and rebounder (his low def is essentially nullified by his IQ).

We want these new folks to maximize thier experience here, and that's all I'm talking about. Bad advice can kill that quickly. I'm not going to argue resumes, but he does have a point about squaring away your own teams so that others can be confident in your assessments. You are well on your way, but consistant success says alot about what advice you can give.

I should have said nothing probably. I Should havent given getbedard any suggestions if i knew it was going to lead to this. Oh well he started his guys lost by 10 in his exhibition opener. My guys who i had starting did well off the bench for him kept in the game.

It's not that, man, it's just that helping new people should be handled carefully. Perhaps if you had given reasons so he (and we) could understand your logic, it would be differant.

Yes, he should have started Schott, but Rewick got owned by a PG with a 29 PE which was the biggest problem. MacMillan had a good defensive day, but remember, he played mostly against a 477 rated guy. I think a bigger issue is that he's playing press without the manpower to do it, but with that many upperclassmen, he's kinda stuck with it for this season.

Some interesting thoughts here. Thanks everyone.

I started Smith over Schott because his defense was so much higher. Should I really have started Schott instead?

Glad someone liked my user name, must be some other Mariners fans out there!

Not a mariner fan but sure liked him in Baltimore. Thanks for Adam Jones, George Sherrill and Chris Tillman btw.

I actually agree with brad and emy on this one. its way overoard he posts on all cc all the time. I actually thought it was a joke at first but after a few season I reliezed it wasnt going to stop.

I can stop posting on your dull boards. I dont post all time you might need glasses on that one.

I'm actually an O's fan too. And I, too, would like to thank you for the excellent haul of prospects you sent us for Bedard...

Hey Bobby Bo, why don't you stop digging in your heels and just admit that you would be better served by backing off a bit?

Last post on forums board seeing that im hated more then colonials now. All you had to do was say to me in a sitemail quit posting on my conference board so much it's annoying the other coaches and i hate it.
