Had a fantastic semi final game but Stone Bridge came up short.

^^^I agree. Qualifying for the NCAAs is a great goal and would show some consistency of the program. Last year's and this year's teams are not dominated by upperclassmen and it is quite clear that players from all four years are contributing. Carvel has a good thing going with new and returning play...

Challenging schedule- especially after losing an All American goalie.

It should be noted that 11-4-1 is pretty darn good. All 4 losses are 1 goal losses save empty net goals. ^^^ That is what is so crazy. By almost any standard, the team is having a great year, especially compared to where they were 3 or 4 years ago. Expectations changed-rather unfairly. Top 10 any y...

The season has been a little weird. After the big wins against Northeastern, the play has been inconsistent. Losing to Merrimac, UNH and Quinnipiac made me wonder how good this team really is. Merrimack was a tie, the losses were NU, BU, QPac and UNH. My bad. The point really is that most of those ...

The season has been a little weird. After the big wins against Northeastern, the play has been inconsistent. Losing to Merrimac, UNH and Quinnipiac made me wonder how good this team really is. At the same time, it seems like expectations are sky-high. Two years ago, if you had asked me if being rate...

Hobey Baker to Calder- quite possible.

We had lightning in a bottle once and Nascar Bob fucked that up in spades..... Catching lightning twice may be asking for too much at this point. ^^ Agreed! UMASS had its big opportunity during the Cal era and missed it. A series of poor coaching hires- Bruiser, Lappa, DK and Morris, Molnar, Whippl...

I'm glad this is just idle speculation since it would be the worst idea for UMASS if they actually were considering it. To paraphrase a quote- when someone reveals themselves to you believe it. He has revealed himself as a self-centered, unethical jerk.

Dennis: Where do you - and others - get the ideas that this is about politics? This is about basic human rights that are being trampled (to put it mildly) at Liberty. There is is a very wide divide between the two. Also, whether or not Falwell's wife is wearing a French maid's costume - see link ab...

Please get this school off the schedule - https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/09/09/jerry-falwell-liberty-university-loans-227914 https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/10/jerry-falwell-jr-accuses-ex--liberty-board-members-of-conspiracy.html https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/christian-activist-gr...

I blame some of what I saw on Whipple for being a poor recruiter. How could he not have groomed some qbs to play when he knew he would lose both his starters. To be fair, Coach Whipple was grooming Mike Curtis as the next UMASS QB and Mike Curtis looked pretty competent when he was in games last se...

I didn't think the volume was ridiculous. Everybody's different I guess. Everybody is different - Children in particular tend to be far more sensitive to loud music or loud events like concerts or fireworks. However loud decibels can be damaging and harmful to everybody. For example pete townsend i...

I just re-watched the game to determine if I could see anything positive to hang my hat on. The following is my list of positives:

The practice field for the bubble looks great!

WOW! That was what I got for my $25. I want a refund and the silly cowbell I got at the end of the game doesn't make up for it. This was my only shot at seeing the football team play this year as I was in Boston this week and stayed around to go to Amherst and see the game. I was excited to see the ...
