A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
Not a fan of whatever the heck it is Junior is trying to do with that offense. Those two out of timeout plays were disgusting
Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
this game was over the second Doc predicted a 10-4 record
Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
Close win over SU is one thing. This leaves a mark.

This team will need the AQ, and they are probably not going to get that.
Blue Jays just cannot turn the ball over so much and expect to win consistently.

I won’t be doing a victory lap like a certain dad. But if I did I would talk about posting a 39% but I won’t do that.
This squad just lost to Navy on Homewood. Mind is blown

Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
Very entertaining game.
Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
just have to go undefeated the rest of the season to meet your "objective, empirical" prognostication or whatever pretentious phrase it was that you used. still possible!

Bawawaeaw. This is too funny. There is an Alannis morrisette song about this comment.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
That’s the thing … these Blue Jays are not fun to watch whether they win or lose.
They beat Syracuse and I cannot get myself to watch that game again.
They beat Towson, and I hated watching that game.
Hopkins is just poor on the fundamentals. If this were a well-played game and the Blue Jays lost by one, ending a 53-year winning streak at Homewood, that would be fine.
But the Blue Jays were embarrassing to watch at times.
Some of the turnovers are just puzzling. I still don’t understand DeSimone stepping in the crease without pressure on man-up. Epstein turned the ball over on a simple pass with a Navy longpole in between him and his teammate (move your feet, make the pass).
This is the most fundamentally unsound Hopkins team I have ever seen.
Just absolutely frustrating to watch. Losing is disappointing, but we’ve seen plenty of losing the past few years.
But completely embarrassing? That’s new.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
Well I kind of don't remember what exactly happened with the 40 seconds left but I am pretty sure Junior didn't tell DeSimone to take up 4 seconds running to GLE and throw it over Peshko's head
Scoring with 7.4 second left is highly improbable but all the flaws were in evidence tonight
- Lose 50/50 ground balls with infuriating regularity
- Struggle in clearing and too many turnovers
- Goalie play was less than 50%
But most of all - the smurfs can't consistently beat their man - the second mid-field - which once had two 6'4" players who could bring heat now has nobody over 5'10" - they have not scored since the Loyola game - Toomey must be wondering what meteor strike created 4 goals from that mid-field
In the last 6 games
8-11-10-8-10-10 goals scored - can't win in the shot clock era averaging 9/10 goals per game
Delaware should be easy - I don't think the first mid-field should be tired at all

They lost tonight by one … a close game.
You have a problem with my prediction?

Is this possibly the worst hopkins team in history?
