As far as the NESCAC, I will listen with great interest. The comments above, especially on indentured servitude, strike a chord.

On the other hand, I'd like to talk about rivalries here at some point. The Turkey. The Shoes. The Bell. Get a clue.

As long as a NESCAC school doesn't ever break Mount Union's 55 game winning streak record, then I could care less if they play only amongst themselves. 

If the OAC had chosen to opt out of the NCAA playoffs then MUC's record would have been 110 straight wins.  But would that carry the same weight if they weren't tested against the rest of the nation in the playoffs?  Not even close.

I realize this is an extremely self-centered attitude being a MUC guy, but at least I'm being honest. ;D
I find easily offended people rather offensive!

Statistics are like bikinis; what they reveal is interesting, what they hide is essential.

So, is anyone getting excited for the Monon Bell Game?

Conference title on the line this Saturday....after that we'll have a good three weeks to chat about the reclamation of the Monon Bell.   :)

Why do you have to reclaim it? Shouldn't it have taken up permanent residency in Crawfordsville by now?

It's rightful place is and always has been in Crawfordsville, but alas, it does not have permanent residency there.

Now you see why I was getting a dig in there.

The similarities, right down to the colors (sorta) are uncanny.

Mates,

How can I learn the history behind this week's Little Brown Bucket game between Gettysburg and Dickinson? Thanks for all help.
