Dunk meter
« on: February 12, 2008, 10:11:48 AM »
I mean, we're 3/4ths of the way down with the year and Dwight Burke is #1 with 9.  Kinda embarassing.

Maybe we could put up a "this team sucks-meter" with the different posters' pictures on it after a bad loss.

Agreed.  It's painful to see up there.

Suggestion: Replace it with the number of times MUScoop has named players "Stud of the Game."

I also suggest renaming the title of that award "Warrior of the Game."

"Warrior of the Game" is an okay designation. However, I prefer,

"Native American - Indian of the Game."

It basically means the same, or so I have been told.

I am already planning on having a stud of the game meter starting next season together with the dunk meter.  Both of these are just done for entertaining fun with the (hopefully) obvious understanding that how many dunks someone has or how often I have selected someone for stud of game probably is no real measure of the quality or awesomeness of a player.

If one or both are disliked enough I can simply remove them altogether - not a big deal either way.
Once a warrior always a warrior.. even if the feathers must now come with a beak.

i think prn doesn't care as much abt the native americanness of 'warrior' as much as any type of warrior that would represent us.

Haha, yeah, my freshman Navy Fall Ball, we had a retired Brigadier General that was an alum, and he suggested that we have a Marine decked out all Rambo-like to keep the "Warrior" alive and so others wouldn't have to worry about the "Native American'ness".
