Subject: Probably because Author: Go Green [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 06:20:28 09/24/24 Tue In reply to: The Mountain Lion 's message, "Re: https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/football/fcs/stats-perform-fcs-top-25" on 18:47:10 09/23/24 Mon Success at Columbia is relative. I mean, good for them for the victory. But if Dartmouth, Harvard, Yale or Princeton had beaten Lafayette, no one would have cared. None of us would have gotten team of the week, that's for sure.

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Probably because Author: Old Lion (Dartmouth) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 13:46:22 09/24/24 Tue Graceless comment that success at Columbia is relative. To what? How about shutting out Dartmouth 19-0 on the road at night not too long ago. Relative to that particular game? In fact, we have played Dartmouth tough ever since the Bagnoli era began. Check the scores. And based upon the absurd level of competition that some of the Ivies opened with last Saturday, it’s hard to take anything away from Columbia’s win over a very good Lafayette team.

Author: Valmas (Stoic) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:55:52 09/24/24 Tue If H, Y, P or Dartmouth defeated a quality Lafayette team, there would, in fact, be a certain level of acknowledgment and appreciation of that victory: and that coming from various quarters. And if somebody wants to simply offer joyful expression to how he/ she feels about a school team, why should that trigger immediate, gratuitous and snide commentary? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
