they say you have lost a debate when you resort to name calling. if this bothers you so much that you need personal attacks, i will bow out of this conversation.Amen!
Say it louder for the people in the back.
NESCAC lacrosse takes that you disagree with are open for you to argue. BUT so are the positions that you take! This idea that ANYONE who doesn’t yield to you is; a troll, a clown, a d**k, or has some dreamt up personal vendetta is sad.
Strap on a helmet, because life’s tough.
In reality there can be 2 truths: there can be some NESCAC over-sensitive defense of the league and there also can be an overzealous anti-NESCAC biased stance that is sometimes clearly trolling mixed in with some truths which has hilariously made its way to the liberty league forum. I, for one, find it fascinating to read because I can understand the former but I am curious as the pathogenesis of the latter. But please dont stop with the sometimes-good insight intermixed with the biased trolling. However, there is no need for anyone to strap on a helmet because this is just an online forum - this is not tough and has no parallels to real life; its purely entertainment
Back to the topic on hand, I agree with almost all the predictions except I think Trinity over Bates and the MIddlebury-Wesleyan score may be higher but MIddlebury still on top.
The Trinity dynamic is interesting because last year it was stated, that it was addition by subtraction when the seniors left and they had a pretty decent year but they seemed to not have built on that this year. It is my neck of the woods but I dont have insight from insiders. But whatever it is, does CC suffer from the same issues?
As far as Tufts goes, I have always said they are the team to beat in the NESCAC until proven otherwise but I will now add-in, my confidence meter is low on them winning D3 overall, until proven otherwise.
LL > NESCAC this year; it may be 2 bid league for the NESCAC.
Good luck this weekend to those with kids playing
