Well, I picked a hell of a game to come back for. Oshkosh looked good, despite some big shots by Point, this one was not in doubt. Capelle and Jahnke impressed the hell out of me, and I really enjoyed seeing Gibson make a game for himself. However, I think it's fairly obvious that Gibson has far from realized his own abilities. Lord help this league if he does. For some reason, Doedens really stood out at me. I liked the way he drives and kicks. He's no offenseive machine, but he's very mobile. And defensively, while he's heistant at times ... he does a good job of contesting shots.

What really got me was talking to Capelle afterwards ... hearing a guy say "we haven't played to our full potential" and not meaning it as a way of saying "yeah we're the best and we don't have to try ... (ahem, Tom Crean)" That was impressive. This reminds of me of the 01-02 squad that dropped a couple of league games midway through the season, but hit their peak in the league tournament.

Good to see all my pals at Kolf again. I didn't see any rats, but my brat sure tasted somewhat odd.

Well sweet sassy molassy ... looks like I finally get to see some ball tonight. I shall be blowing off the mFU-DePaul game and the Bucky-PSU snoozefest to take in the Pointers and Titans at the mighty mighty Kolf tonight. (And naturally, I will compile some sort of report in an effort to expense the entire excusrion)

OS, will you be in attendence?

Oops. I found Mr. Coleman's FAQs. I am now educated.

OK, it's my own damn fault for not being around ... but somebody mentioned a WIAC team and the words "lock for a Pool C bid" in the same sentence without the words "screwed out of". I know the tourney has expanded, but what are the new breakdowns?

OS,

Thanks for the note. You know, I've been so bogged down watching the Bucks, UW, UWM, and mFU that I haven't been to any D3 games this year ... not even my beloved Skosh at Carroll. Grrr. This shall change soon. But kudos to Pat on the new boards. I shall be checking in regularly now (thank god for wireless).
