Thanks to alert by Jerry Price today, with the Heps wins over the weekend Princeton becomes the first Ivy ever to win sixteen league championships in one academic year. For those interested, 10 women’s, 6 men’s.

The three rowing championships remain, in which Tigers will not be favored.

Princeton the only college with teams in both men’s and women’s lacrosse quarterfinals.

Says a bit about the national broadening of talent on both sides, all good. Some grumbly folks in Chapel Hill, College Park, Syracuse etc

I seldom call people out, but Joisey it seems that you have to brag on every little achievement Princeton has. Yes, we all know that they have done a superlative job of recruiting and promoting. But why do you have to keep reminding us about every little achievement? Do you think people, other than Princeton fans, want to read that? Frankly, it comes off as very obnoxious. I obviously don't know you, but I am sure you are a wonderful human being, much loved by many people. And I want to love you, too, but you make it hard when you come off as a PR man for Princeton.

The posts above from joiseyfan were about an extraordinary (and I believe unprecedented) year that Princeton has had across all of its athletic teams and a season when both of its lax teams were top 5 in the country. A post in another thread was about the men’s and women’s T&F teams, which both pulled off incredible triple crown years.

Joisey also has recently posted about the men’s Eastern Sprints regatta, which Harvard dominated, and the Tiger lax loss to Syracuse in the quarterfinals and was very supportive of the Crimson’s successes and Cornell’s lax win against Richmond.

The posters on this site are all pleased and proud when their teams do well, whether it is Columbia’s baseball team, Cornell’s lacrosse team, or Brown’s softball team, to pick a few recent examples. Why should joisey or any other Princeton fan not share news about the successes of Tiger teams, particularly when those accomplishments are historic in nature?

If for some reason you find that obnoxious then the easy solution is to not read those posts.

I find it obnoxious because it is. I only occasionally read Jersey's posts to see what he is bragging about this week. Sorry, I am being totally honest.

To the guy who called Surace a jerk for scoring a TD at the end of the FIRST half in a game a few years ago against Brown: if Joiseyfan wanted to post after every P athletic achievement or League title he’d be on this board a lot more often. Perhaps you would find it more readable if he posted while shaving. Maybe Brown athletics will have more positives to share in the future during this shaving activity. Oh, this is also to the guy who, in the attitude he reflected here, entitled a string “Enough is Enough” in response to a reference to P athletics and then protested he isn’t trying to stop discussion.
