Re: Winning….

For me, the real eye opener was when one of my daughters asked why I watched sports so much. My answer was, "because it's fun." She just said, "ok," and went about her business, but my own answer stuck in my head. OT, but this statement sums up a majority of the non-serious or casual conversations ...

Re: 10 Schools that belong in the SEC

Everything I know about the SEC I only know thanks to Mitchel's SEC Roll Call.

Re: Oreg St at 3:30pm - Discussion

If I had a critique from yesterday’s game it is very clearly how Loggains called plays the entire fourth quarter. I thought Loggains was calling offensive plays. It seemed to me the defense was on the field for the entire 4th quarter except for 6 plays? So not not much play calling going on. The de...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Well, the high from breaking into the rankings didn't last long. Conference foe Miami (OH) beat App 7-0. It doesn't get any easier as a ranked Liberty squad comes to Boone tomorrow. When App broke into the ranking I was worried about going 0-2 this weekend, but Friday was just uglier then I thought...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Just how close would the JMU FH field be to the railroad tracks that run through their campus? Asking for a friend. The JMU field hockey stadium isn't near the railroad tracks that runs through the middle of campus. Instead, it is on the opposite of the interstate highway that runs through the midd...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Where do they play? What field? The field is over at State Farm and where XC runs. You can park right by the field but, personally I would not as I would be afraid of an errant ball hitting my car. Park a bit down the hill and get some exercise. But basically go to State Farm parking, then keep dri...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Two MAC teams in the polls. Clearly losing to a better team did not hurt JMU much. There is actually 3 MAC teams this week. New full member UMass has been in the poll all year. It is nice to see that JMU did not drop out after the App loss. I have been saying for years over on the Sun Belt board th...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

I so do appreciate the knowledge you bring to the subject of FH. Just imagine how annoying I would be to this board if my daughter's interest in playing for App had been reciprocated. You called the placement in the polls. Impressive. You can be an annoying as you want to be going forward and I wil...

Re: Happy Opening Day!

I am one of those sports fans that only watches a sport when the teams I care about are playing. And the list of teams I care about is tiny: App State, whatever school/club teams my daughters are on, the Carolina Hurricanes, and the Cincinnati Reds! I was born in Cincinnati during the era of the Big...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

App FH blew leads of 3-1 and 4-2 but defeated JMU 5-4 in OT. Unlike some of the other teams on campus, the hockey team is really enjoying the fruits of a roster full of seniors and four-year starters who have been playing together for years. App did what we always seem to do to JMU the week after a...

Re: Boise Discussion - 7:30pm

We've played VT at least 2 times since about 1985 I think only once. We definitely didn’t play VPI in 2011. I don’t know why people make up that game happening. It’s irresponsible and dangerous https://www.espn.com/college-football/game/_/gameId/312460259/app-state-virginia-tech Maybe we didn't pla...

Re: Boise Discussion - 7:30pm

Any success our Olympic sports have is that much more impressive as they are being sacrificed to invest in football. This line of thinking is why I have found myself getting far more enjoyment following the lower profile sports over the last few years - and so far it has been a good fall season for...
