MACtion baby!

As a Crawfordsville alum, this is really exciting! Paying homage to the Monon Line and able to capitalize on the idea of MACtion (as the poster above highlights) is brilliant!

Yuck.   Fighting to keep the Sagamore Conference name should have been the first choice.

They LEFT the Sagamore... They made the choice.  If they would have voted to kick out the other 3 then they would have kept the name.  It's not rocket science, Muda.

Strong choice, I like it.

And as I have said that was the wrong decision.  Now we have this frankly stupid conference name, named after a defunct railroad line.  Really?

You are literally the only person that I have heard that doesn't like the new name.

Not everything is 100%, 1st_and_10.   Dissension is healthy.

Also, anybody able to get to www.mononathleticconference.com ?  My browser is telling me that site can't be reached, and I've double checked the URL spelling (it's a mouthful) from the press release.   Would be nice to peruse this new conference constitution.

I love it

Sounds like a better conference name that the one we are in.

What would you have named it? Can’t call it the Sagamore.

[WCGrad92]

SDWCIkoAC

Super-Duper West Central Indiana (kind of) Athletic Conference.

Just rolls off of the tongue

Nice name and good luck to the new conference - Sagamore #2 probably would get confusing.

The TRSAC - The REAL Sagamore Athletic Conference would also be an acceptable name.

Muda you’ve been screaming for over a decade that Frankfort should leave the Sagamore, and now that they have you are complaining about that. After 20 years of listening to you I think it might actually be possible that you just like to complain, and that you dont actually care about the issues you rage against. 😜

I almost typed this exact same thing.

And you would be wrong sir.  Sure, I think Frankfort should have left the Sagamore, and it actually did.  But I still believe the smarter choice of action would have been for the 5 schools to kick out the 3, not some kind of backroom machinations that caused the 5 to leave with their tails between their legs.  Then Cascade, North Putnam, and Greencastle would be invited.  This new conference, the SDWCIkoAC,  IMHO has a mix of schools and programs where hopefully the Hot Dogs will be more competitive.   And that doesn't mean I have to like or agree with the name of this new conference.  

 

[CoachGallogly]

But that’s not actually what you’ve advocated for. You’ve stated that the Hot Dogs should join the HHC countless times, and in each you never opined to keep the Sagamore name.

Yes, joining the Hoosier Heartland Conference would IMHO be the optimal choice for FHS. But we always don't get our optimal choice in life,  do we Mr. Gallogly?  I'll take this compromise as a small win, maybe a stepping stone to something later.  And you can continue with your gotcha attempts.

So now you’re good with it…got it

Again, not the optimal result.  But as an adult living in the real world I know how things work.
