I know there are quite a few Iona fans that post there, but other than seeing your handle/name in print, I have to wonder why they bother. And then to see them try to carry on a sensible conversation with an idiot like Saintly Saint, well it just doesn't make sense to me. I try to read a thread to maybe glean some bb info, and I usually come away with crap. I'm urging/begging all Iona posters not to respond to a punk like SS. Ignore him and if the MAAC Board sees fit not to ban him, refuse to post on the board. Just a request. Believe me, especially this year the MAAC Board will dry up w/o anyone posting about Iona. I give credit to FF posters who mostly ignore the crap that supposedly passes for bb talk.

I am with you!

And not watch Siena fans in misery? No chance.

What's going on with Rider? They are 1 and 10 and I thought they were picked for 3rd in the MAAC in preseason poll. Do they expect a key player or two to return?

Losing their PG to graduation, and their best returning player to an injury was huge. And like winning, losing is contagious.

I come here to discuss basketball, and /or get updates on Iona. I go to the MAAC Board to torture Sienna fans. Torture without being mean spirited towards their student athletes. Fair game after they graduate. I also want to support the student athletes who have decided to wear Iona on the front of their uniforms. I think they wander on that Board on occasion. Want them to know that someone has their virtual backs. Saintly Saint (sic) is a lunatic. He says he works at the Pentagon, but has the time to make more than 100 posts per day on one Board. Think about it - 100 posts per day on the taxpayers dime, not to mention the deranged theme of those posts. Probably says a lot about me, but I like needling that deranged mess just to see what spews next. (Counselor ctbill, good job on the closing argument yesterday.)

Re. the MAAC board. Guy, I don't expect you to stop posting, as I guess you take your "best poster" designation seriously. I'm trying to get to the Iona fans who just visit that Board for BB purposes. I'm hoping that they'll just put their egos aside and just talk BB. I think that they'll soon realize BB talk is pretty non-existent over there.

You come here for basketball discussion, you go there for pure entertainment.

The Maac board is the last place to go to discuss basketball, however it is so childish I guess it keeps you young

In a world where we're expected to be serious all the time, I don't mind having a childish outlet.

I'll say this for Saintly, he wins every time he's able to sucker Iona fans into arguing with him.

Or you can realize he's doing it on purpose and beat him at his own game--thus, the entertainment.
Lighten up, it's just message board banter.

Congrats Iona fans!! Slouper tried his usual baiting tactics by, once again, calling Kyle soft, and NO ONE took the bait, causing him to just go away. Expect some Edwin Ubilies info from him soon. And, btw, he added a knock on Brian Voelkel, a guy who the slouper said was terrible coming out of HS and who has torched both of the slouper's team in four games. Kyle's problem, as we all know, is that because he's so tough, leading the MAAC in charges taken is paying a stiff price for his toughness. And a note to MTS, who is concerned that Ronald Moore's assist record is going to be broken by Scott Machado. It probably will but Ron still leads the MAAC in DWI's or is it DUI's?
