Re: Winning versus scoring

Oh, I'm sorry I am not a class act for you. Also,
as Shaun mentioned, you got pulled through by
another player who hasn't been active all year to do so
well at Sectionals, so keep quiet about the stats for
"Duke". I have a lot of respect for the player who pulled
you through but do you think you could have had the
same record without this particular player?


I've never mentioned about the history of Maryland.
I've never mentioned some kind of divine rights I have
as being a member of a Maryland team. I am also
quite aware Maryland is quite ordinary right now. You
seem to be the one having problems with Maryland's
past and while I inspire to be as good as some of the
great Maryland players in their prime, I never believed
there was some divine right about it. When I talk about
getting "screwed", it's all about getting ranked lower
even though we beat three teams that were ranked above
us. I thought I raised some decent points about PPT
being not the best solution and how it could be unfair,
but you chose to ignore that. 

You are the one
bring up University of Maryland's past while I really
don't want to be associated with it because I know I
don't live up to it. I've also never said anything
about how Maryland's past excellence should give my
team or myself credit for anything. It's you who've
said those things and brought them up as points even
though it's never been part of my argument. Again, let
me lay it out for you what I was saying, when I say
my team is being screwed, it is because of the
system that ignores the fact that we beat three teams
that are ranked ahead of us and does not really
account for teams playing below-average teams. Those
comments were also just my own opinion and doesn't
represent the team at all. 
To me it just looks like you
wanted someone at Maryland to bitch at, and you found
someone. Well, good for you, but this is the last time
I'll post on this year's NAQT Sectionals and you can
respond to this message anyway you
like.
