Again, not even a moniker---another example of why this board should go to registration. Even if you accept that HC isn't head and shoulders above the rest of the PL, your "sinking fast" characterization is overdone. Jave Meade is gone, true, as is Neil Fingleton. Jave was a great contributor. In all fairness, Neil was not. Everyone else returns. Keith Simmons has shown great ability. I don't want to go player by player but there is plenty of talent and at the very worst, the team is not dropping that far below the rest of the pack if it is dropping at all. There were younger players who should improve this year. There is senior leadership in Kinsey, Lufkin and Hurley. I have confidence that things have to go better for John this year. At the least I know he will give it all he has. Richter and Young should also improve and Clifford and Doherty should see action. "sinking fast"? I just don't accept it.

totally agree ntk. have to get a laugh out of the jackasses talking about how we are "sinking", "can't even win in the PL", etc.
open your eyes idiots - we won the league tournament 3 out of the past 4 years! and then a middle of the pack finish last year (not like we finished last) after losing three 1,000 point scorers. how is that sinking fast? i'll be fired up by the time the season rolls around, the silence of the jealous naysayers will be amusing to say the least.

It is what is known as an upset - Like Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson; or a bunch of American college kids beating the Russians in Olympic hockey; or a .500 football team destroying the #1 college football team by a 55-12 score; or a horse named "Upset" beating "Man o'War".
It is one of those things that makes sports enjoyable.

Had HC played Williams 9 more times in basketball last season, I'd still bet on the Cross to win at least 7 or 8 of the remaining 9. Willard would find a way. (Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me.........or something along those lines).

Pitt, outstanding comment on exactly the right response to all those who don't understand the true nature of the Williams game!

Hey, I didn't like losing that game either but Williams, as National Champs in D-III, simply isn't that far behind HC these days.
That was/is a pretty good club....perfectly capable of hanging with most PL teams.
