You haven't been paying attention enough to realize that if we didn't take this bid, we would have been independent or terminated sooner.

Read the news, don't assume it.

Please re-read the post. It was clear and written at a level that most BG grads should be able to comprehend. that too little to late? Apparently our ex-peers in the NCHC think so!
Let's talk about reading comprehension.

1)NCHC didn't want us and that was made perfectly clear. WMU carries better TV revenue and the state of Michigan recruiting. BG literally offers nothing to the NCHC other than a history of a 20 year old slide [not to be blamed on CG.]

2) THE ONLY OFFER ON THE TABLE WAS THE WCHA.

3) Christopher tried to keep the CCHA together giving us the opportunity to win right away and get to the NCAA's. It was a prudent move, but there were no takers. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada.

4) THE ONLY OFFER ON THE TABLE WAS WCHA.

If we don't take the offer on the table then suddenly we have a conference [CCHA] of ONE TEAM: BGSU. Um, that's independent by any and all accounts.

It's simple logic and that simple logic tells me that you're being an idiot.

Thank you for proving me more able to handle the English language than you. Stick around and learn a little bit before you begin casting your idiotic aspersions around like you're somehow better informed then other people on this board.
I think it's safe to say that this thread has run its course.
Time to lay off the personal attacks, join the new conference (in 2 years), support the program and win some games.

Not true. This guy started the personal attacks on me when he responded to my post with "You haven't been paying attention enough to realize that if we didn't take this bid, we would have been independent or terminated sooner. Read the news, don't assume it."

Later, he called me “pookie”, which is a term of endearment that I personally would not use to address another man.

I guess he has been posting on here a long time and that is great, and it is ok to disagree with any opinion, but the tone and tenor of his post was unfortunate and prompted my response.

I always read RUIT's posts and hum the theme song to Gilligan's Island. That adjusts the tone I hear in my head to reality...... keeps me from misreading people.

And I am not sure RUIT's a tenor..... I think he might be more of a baritone......... Pookie.

Amazed am I that Tech understands yet doesn't follow through on the nagging urge to jump off the the nearest Ohio River span.

I'm a bass but I'm an alto one Saturday night every month ... when emulating Barbara!
