They have a sound-off portion to the preview article where people can post their predictions. One guy even says the only way X can win is from the free-throw line. Heh???

You forget that Dayton only loses when the refs screw them over....

There must be a whole lot of refs that hate them the last few years.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Mr N, thanks for the links, this one and all of the research you do to make the site more informative and fun.

I liked the article on Roberts and BJ Raymond being buddies from Toledo St John. There is mention of Hamilton's upset of the Johnnies in the State Finals, which prompted me to recall what a bitter disappointment it was to a partner of mine who was a St John grad.

Thanks, Carlos.

This should be a fun game tonight, though X is in somewhat of a "no win" situation. If we beat UD without Wright and Little, well, we should have won under those circumstances. If we lose to them without Wright and Little, we really look bad.

Of the two options, I say go with the win and let UD fans try to excuse it away.
