Subject: Preliminary Ivy FB Thoughts Author: Ivy Inquisitior [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:24:41 08/25/25 Mon I have not posted In a while. I state the obvious.I has been a busy year. Here is a few thoughts on media day. Brown was the most enthusiastic about the national playoffs. The offense will play fast. That will make it difficult for the defense. The defense is planing on attacking the ball even if its on the opposite side of the field. The Bears said they will lift violently. Stressing the importance of strength and conditioning. To get a winning season the defense must improve. The offense needs help aid the defense by letting them catch their breath from time to time. Columbia Coach Poppe is very fired up. The lions implied power by touting their defense and their offensive line and their blocking tight ends. Cornell Coach Swanson was the most candid. When he said he doesn't know what is in store. He said QB Wang may have been a " deodorant " hiding the shortcomings. Cornell may use two QB's. The good thing about Cornell rotating several recivers and backs for a novice QB means there is always experience around him. Dartmouth is loaded with four running backs, solid defense back field and a "new" QB that has experience. Harvard wants to win The league outright. They are loaded at QB,RB and offensive line. Penn didn't have much to say other than they are figure out Hosely's replacement. Princeton portion of media day was empty hot air. Could they be keeping their potential weapons a secret? Yale said they feel confident about replacing their QB. Based on their recent history, I believe them. Preliminary prediction: 1- Harvard 1- Dartmouth 3- Yale 3- Columbia 5- Penn 6- Brown 7- Cornell 8- Princeton [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: PQ: Good to see the rumor of your demise as having been highly exaggerated! However, Author: Valmas (Stoic) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:51:47 08/26/25 Tue I've been expecting a comprehensive presentation from you for some time now, as to how many times the pre-season Ivy League football poll has actually picked the eventual League winner. So when is the work you promised to do on this subject going out to the masses? And don't try tell me about how busy you are - how laughable is that? You live for the attention you get on this page; and may I remind you that you're our living contributor with two handles - each of which, you misspell on a far too regular basis!

However, Author: Ivy Inquisitior [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:52:30 08/27/25 Wed Michael, I've been busy with work. In addition my dad entered hospice. I also caught in the middle between my mother's and dad's side of the family situations. By not taking a side all are blaming me. Seems like I'm the souce of all ills.I'm sure if anyone if anyone looks far enough I can be blamed for AIDS in South Africa, Civil War in South Sudan, the border dispute between Kosavo and Serbia. Since 2021 I've been posting only as Ivy Inquisitor.
