steeleyglen              31-14          6-3

44                              7-4            dnp
scottie                       11-13        dnp

final thoughts:
brian it had to be tough to pick RMC over your beloved Tigers (nice pick tho')

is Swickwrath out at Lynchburg? My crystal ball says yes, but can ANYONE win there?

can anybody derail a Guilford v. Va. Wesleyan final?

only 2 go to the "dance"...

the system is what it is...you think the E&H player who set the record for three's made would rather win more than he loses or maybe would like to play defense at least 1 possession per game or possibly be playing in the tournament? E&H was a factor before the "system".

catch Bridgewater in the tournament if you can...just sayin'!

Will the fall of Sydney continue? What's Bubba's future Tiger fans?

Have a great tournament guys...good luck to all...I am out!

Week 3 ( so to speak) is in the books. 11-2 weeks by brianhamilton and jaydubyadubya paced the pickers. Congrats also to brian for being the only guru to call Hampden-Sydney over Roanoke. Raspberries to ALL gurus who called Lynchburg over Randolph (and that was all of us). One of these days we'll all come to understand that like Scottie and the pick'ems, the Hornets gave up and quit some time ago!

The standings:

jacketlawyer           28-9        10-3
bhamilton               28-9         11-2
steeleyglen            25-11        8-4
baselinejam           22-13        9-3
jaydubyadubya      23-14       11-2
rmc1982                 16-7          7-5
roomie                    15-9          dnp
oldfish                     16-10       8-5
44                           7-4            dnp
scottie                    11-13        officially quit!

this weeks pick'ems are up on the pick'ems page ( page 44 of the home and garden section in the D3Hoops Herald)!

Guys, Cannon Watson is one of the good guys and a terrific play-by-play commentator. A former college athlete himself, he knows the nuances of college sports and has a keen insight into the athlete. Hampden-Sydney is fortunate to have him. Although a Tiger fan, he's not a 100% "homer" and calls it like he sees it, good or bad. He doesn't throw out compliments unless warranted. Take his good words about the Quakers as sincere and well earned.

Now as for that band of color commentators he has to put up with... ;) ;D

Scottie I would have expected nothing else. The stakes are SOOO big I'm sure the pressure must be intense.  But I suppose once a Hornet...

nice job by roomie being the only guru to call EMU over BC.
you guys know I always give credit to those who play every week, so you might a better winning "pick'em %" but I rate those 100 %'ers first...

week 3 is over on the leper colony page!

Well gurus, another Monday morning and another wild weekend of "pick'ems". Here's how it went...

Baselinejam              9-4  (nice call on the W&L v. Roanoke game)
jacketlawyer             9-4  (picking the favorites gets a share of the lead)
brianhamilton           8-5  (one of only 2 to pick GC over RMC)
denbowsroomie       8-5  (also called W&L ove Roanoke)
oldfish                      8-5  (went 2-1 with the home boys this weekend)
steelyglen                8-5  (hey who called Guilford over VWC?)
jaydubyadubya        7-6  (the Guilford call over RMC kept you over .500)
scottie                      6-7 ( are you with lynchburgcollege on Swickwrath?)

Easy picks...everybody got EMU @ W&L, E&H @ VWC, LC @ BC and E&H @ RMC

a guru o-pher...HSC @EMU

go to the "pick'ems" thread somewhere else on this board and get this weeks games. Don't forget to pick'em over there lest you get that cyber ruler across your knuckles...sheesh!

Well Pat, some things ( and people) never change...at least you are consistent ::)

I would like to add my prayers for Coach Bob Johnson and his family...terrific coach and an even better person!

Hope everybody had a good summer. Bridgewater's schedule is now up.

http://www.bridgewater.edu/index.php?id=901

The Penn State Behrend doubleheader includes Baldwin-Wallace and Fredonia. The Eagles play the host team opening night.

The Oglethorpe doubleheader includes Mt. St. Vincent. BC plays Ogelthorpe on the second night here. Not sure who the 4th team is in this doubleheader.

There is the annual Don Glick invitational and other EMU (I would assume)...not sure who's in this doubeheader.

And Bridgewater plays Randolph College at home to round out the OOC schedule.

I'll leave it up to those who know better to dissect this schedule.

Not D3 hoops but sad news out of Winston-Salem today as Basketball coach Skip Prosser collapsed after jogging on campus at Wake Forest and died at the young age of 56 of an apparent heart attack...go home tonight and kiss your wife and kids, your girlfriend/boyfriend, mom and dad, whoever...life is short...way to short for some! My thoughts and prayers are with the Prosser family tonight!
