i know i just posted so im kinda being a hypocrite for saying this...
but maybe we should stop posting all together. All its gonna be is a bunch of nonsense bickering back n forth and if it goes any further it might just put a bad name on the school.
obviously no one has to listen to me this was just my two cents.

I have to admit that I didn't want to go over there and see the rule. I knew there was nothing I could say change their minds. But then I finally read the forum and I see;
OMG DEAN! "Of course you small programs love it. Can;t even beat our D teams."
LOFLMAO! Yeah, we're not making any friends.

All well and good. Now I ask everyone in our program to quit posting on the subject. It won't help change their opinion and we come off looking like jerks.
Sometimes arguing a point too much and too vocally makes you look in bad even if you are correct. Save your energy and pick a fight you can win, on the lanes.

BTW, I put my two cent in the discussion. Please note the cordial manner. It was hard. I really want to tell them that our E team finished second this week.

I was talking about the new rule that next year we won't have E team bowling any tournaments, not even our own. 4 teams is all that's allowed per tournament 2010-11.
And, yes, congrats to an awesome job by those Simbas
BTW, just noticed Karl had some strong words about my post. Interesting read. I don't know if i will reply. At this point, it doesn'r really serve a purpose. Does go to show you it's not just the students talking ****. Coaches and mods are trashing it up too.

I meant what I said in relation to posting on the college bowling forum. But making a posting would be spiteful and only stir the pot. Being a guy who has spent a lot of time on D and E teams I do feel pretty strongly about this.

Exactly! There was no disrespect intended in my post toward the D team, but it would cause anger by some in the college bowling world to post about their success on that forum.
Lightin up, Francis. Your not the only guy who bowled on the D or E teams.

To me Karl's post is just another example of the "Im sure" argument. Essentially their argument is I'M SURE this will all work out I'M SURE they had the best interest of college bowling in mind I'M SURE it will improve college bowling in the future
Time and time again they respond to our argument with...youre wrong, and I'M SURE USBC is right. We give facts as to why we think this wont work out, and they don't give facts as to why they do... Eh, whatever... IM SURE it will blow over...
is there anyway to go over karl? at the very least to be heard. i know the rule wont get changed at least to be heard and maybe make aware.

My first thoughts on reading Karl's post in response to Randys:
Karl = Obama Usbc = the rest of the (insert word that rhymes with borrupt) us government This whole situation= the ridiculous health care bill that almost got passed Lindenwood= a responsible working individual who is being penalized for being successful.
i still wanna know karl and gary's reasons how this will make it better they never give actual reasons why this will be benefitial to our sport and college bowling
