Icon issues seem to be resolved now although after the updates there are some other things happening with the layout such as the banner now being the wrong size and being displayed past the header navigation frame. As always DP, thank you and my offer to help you out still stands :).

Just checked and both Green and Williams are still on the practice squads of the Falcons and Giants. Way to go! $8,400/week ain't chump change.

Waldman seems to be Atlanta-based and mostly posts on NFL rookies. https://www.timesunion.com/agatepage/article/Back-to-back-games-will-become-a-routine-for-15670951.php?utm_campaign=CMS Sharing Tools (Premium)&utm_source=share-by-email&utm_medium=email TU story on the schedule says Mohegan Sun games moved to Dec 3-4, Drexel replaces Lehigh, and Marquette and Minnesota games canceled.

I don't know who Last Word on Sports is, but they pick us second in the AE. They also love Jarvis Doles who they pick as the AE sixth man of the year. https://lastwordonsports.com/basketball/2020/10/23/2020-21-america-east-basketball-preview/

You guys don't miss a trick. Eli wasn't talking about you cwdickens. A spammer slipped through and posted some stuff. I banned their account. Thanks for the heads-up!

Can we boot these new bots such as the one above? This not a real user.

Yes life is different...sometimes an occurrence like COVID-19 evolves changes never anticipated.... however sometimes those changes do not pan out and what was discarded becomes new and innovative ..... Our cities have raised and fall in the past... cities will raise again.. I hoping in what is left in my time here... I am recently retired .... so I am dealing with changes .... one day at a time.

I watch a little college action and the Giants games, but that’s pretty much it. Without the crowds it really loses its appeal for some reason. When the kneeling started a few years back I pretty much stopped watching for a while and with the politics and protests shoved in your face I’ve not returned. Broke the habit. Didn’t watch a single minute of the NBA. I think I watched maybe 5 min of a baseball game to see what it was like with no fans. I read, watch other stuff on TV, do house chores, walk. It begs the question of what big changes are coming or will stay in place when this pandemic is

[doll--duke outdoor lacrosse league; even post scores & standings on their web site.] Article in IL how Duke is using in-house scrimmages to add competition and fun in lieu of fall ball. Not really new, since Duke generally does NOT like to face other schools in the fall. But it another article, North Carolina is using a similar approach this fall. NOT saying UA should emulate {all though those are pretty good programs to imitate}; but it would be NICE to hear that UA lacrosse is out on the field these days. Anyone hear or see anything going on??

They already played Buffalo last year and Liberty a couple of years ago, so maybe they have enough aid packages to be counters.

RMU's definitely a primarily basketball focused school but the move to the Big South might be even more significant. If they take advantage of being allowed to have 63 scholarship players after leaving NEC, they can start playing FBS schools. That's an extra $200K or so per game and a nice advertisement for the school. Tutuapp 9apps Showbox

Lyle Thompson is the moral compass of the culture surrounding lacrosse. The fact that he’s the best in the world at that same sport is icing on the cake. Kodi nox

IMHO, I would NOT be surprised if other teams DO join Towson in opting out. Unless Towson has some underlying other issues; this could be the beginning of a wave across FCS???

The article hinted or at least sounded to me, that a normal Spring schedule is hoped. Getting the format for fall and winter in-order and perhaps reduced in some cases with the goal of being able to normalize Spring sports and schedules. Perhaps I am reading it entirely wrong; but I hope the goal is reduce conflicts with spring sports to compensate them and insure they get a full season?? Remember @ this point they have already lost the most because of covid. Thoughts/opinions about lacrosse and other spring sports.

After the America East Conference announcement for Basketball... I cannot wait to see what happens with the Lacrosse schedule...

The Albany TIMES UNION take on the announcement (link below): https://www.timesunion.com/sports/article/UAlbany-will-play-all-conference-basketball-games-15658183.php

Are we seeing those updates? There appears to be some interesting changes....

I am hoping that as well, but a better team may come from athletes from Long Island and Western NY and Maryland.

The link for Towson's announcement is below: https://www.whsv.com/2020/10/19/towson-opts-out-of-spring-football-schedule-in-2021/

The links from the AE Conference announcement are below: https://t.co/OkVTFqh2Zh https://t.co/tyXt6N4NdJ

Think so. Here's the full press release: https://americaeast.com/news/2020/10/19/2020-21_season-structures.aspx and the relevant part about the basketball season:

Is Townson considered part of the North Division or the South Division for Spring 2021?

Is this the same for UAlbany Women's Basketball? Each playing home on alternate weekends perhaps....
