(And, no, Goulet, that's not me telling you guys to take your "Ohmigosh, can we actually sustain drives when all we've shown thus far is the ability to score 80-yard touchdowns at will?" shtick off of this board and onto another one, as if I had the right to do so. I'm simply saying that it's misdirected conversation for this particular audience and much more relevant to a nationally-based topics board.)
I strongly disagree with this. "This particular audience" includes any number of folks who support North Central, and a conversation about that team is not misdirected here any more than the 2,152nd regaling of the best peanut gallery insults from the Crackerbox in days of yore is misdirected. Are you suggesting a board focused on the CCIW is the wrong place for North Central fans to talk amongst themselves about their team? Nobody went out of their way to disparage another school in the conference, and it's not like the conversation popped up on the MWC board (or pick your conference) where talking about North Central would make zero sense.
I would also argue that the topic is relevant not just in November and beyond for reasons I noted above -- things surface now that may factor in down the road. I see no reason why that space should be off-limits. A lot of topics we discuss are relevant to only a portion of the people who venture over here.
Take it as humblebragging if you want; people are going to read whatever they want into what someone posts. Or you can always scroll past it.
