Euphemism of the day, maybe the month.

Well I did think abusive was a little pejorative.

I was a little surprised, especially in the second half of the first half, that UNC kept allowing Scane to dodge to the middle of the field. Am I right that UNC never went into a zone, stayed in Man the whole game? Levy said just before the second half started that they just needed the ball; she wa...

NU showed a lack of discipline yet again. They could have and should have won this game. Yes they got screwed on the no call when Liza Elder got mugged and her stick pulled down with two mins to play in a one goal game that should have resulted in an FP, but that ridiculous yellow at the end of the ...

Damn I got to lay off the sauce, meant ND by 4!!!

well since UVA can't seem to beat anybody going away, I would tend to agree. The almighty draw is the great equalizer for Duke, which is by the way why it shouldn't be eliminated IMHO.

Best Upcoming Games (in order): Saturday - Loyola v. Penn Monday - N'western vs. UNC Saturday - BC vs. Notre Dame Sunday - SU vs. V Tech UNC at home by 5 ND at home by 10 SU on the road by 6 Saturday - Loyola v. Penn (or the Rosensweig bowl as some might call it) Penn by 2 upset special Monday - N'...

That too. It's also the beauty of the cradle, passing, and catching with a stick that requires a soft touch as opposed to one that holds the ball in for you. There was a much greater elelment of beauty to the men's game in that respect prior to the "new sticks". Shorts, helmets, and glove...

OK look at the VT and W&m game today. 23-3. One player, who happens to be a T watch list player, has 7 goals? 2 other starters have 4 goals, another with 3. Those 4 starters, 18 goals.... Is that necessary? Boost stats much? Well, 5 of Petty's 7 goals were in the first half. 6th came about six ...

I wouldnt be surprised if Navy won, but I wouldnt bet on it. Navy has looked like they are struggling at times. Should be a fun game to watch though.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Agree.

My poll this week..big changes UNC...still the best but showed some vulnerability Nd...love the pressure zone and ride, reminds me of BC last year without the Tewaaraton candidates Cuse...love that they went into the belly of the Beast and beat them soundly. First half shutout..wow Loyola...keep mov...

If you watch the top 3 ACC teams (UNC, Syracuse, ND), it is very noticeable that they are simply faster, stronger and more athletic than the bottom half of the ACC. The coaches of these teams have adapted their "systems" to take advantage of the strengths of their players. The ACC, top to...

This is what happens when you try to cancel a game two days before, under routine for Syracuse winter weather conditions. Seven other NCAA team from different states somehow made it to Syracuse for contests. I Certainly don’t root for either Team normally, but credit to Gary Gait for saying fine we ...

VT over Cincy GT over Hop UR over UVA (slight wish) And a crazy wish... Bill & Mary over Duke (Above earlier quote from Doc) Doc, what happened between you and Duke? You can tell us, we’re your friends. I thought we were brothers Nut. Why so down on Duke and UVA? I like the post North Duke stor...

Based on SB's 1 Best Win and 3 Worst Losses, they're resume is better than UNC's. So are the resume's of ND, Loyola, and SU. With MD's precipitous drop, UNC's W is not so impressive. So... I've changed the criteria to 2 Best Wins and 3 Worst Losses. (Soon it will be 3 Best Wins and 3 Worst Losses a...

Let's break down BC's season: (italicized is projected, feel free to disagree) Win: BU, Vandy, Brown, Yale = 4 Loss: UMass, USC, Notre Dame, UNC, UVA, Northwestern, 'Cuse, ACCT Round 1 = 8 Toss-up: Hofstra, VT, Dartmouth, Duke, Louisville; barring a significant upset, need to win all five to be ove...

Yeah, I kinda wondered if Pitt would be able to pull off that recruiting success, given that they'll be in the ACC. It's as much academics regarding Penn, but it'll be interesting if a turf war develops between those three (particularly Penn St./Pitt). Pitt's entrance will throw off the even balanc...

Nut. I like most of your picks. 1-4 are solid, 7 and 9 too. The team, "how not to be seen" (random monty python reference) at #5 is one spot too high in my opinion, I would switch the hoos and that team. Playing one perfect game against a deeply tanned team doesn't make you top 5 Usc at 8...

My early poll 1) UNC...still the top of the heap till somebody knocks them off...UVA game this weekend good test? 2) ND...still undefeated, still rising. Won’t stay here but enjoy it while it lasts. 3) Stony Brook...will be most overrated undefeated team I can remember. 4) Cuse...still undiscipline...
