Just because your beloved CBA is a little depressed from their loss by no means dimishes this final game in the shore conference. Give the game it's due. Colts Neck fought hard to get there and deserves everyone's respect.
CBA fans are not depressed (well maybe a little) They played a good game and lost. Well kids, that's baseball. Very tough loss, but this is a team with a lot of heart and they want to win tonight and tomorrow.
Their fans support them all the way!
They will get out there and do what they do best- play great baseball!
This is a great team and they will finish up strong!
I think you took this the wrong way.
What I am saying is that there does not seem to be a whole lot of chatter or excitement about this game from either side...at least until now.....maybe you'll rouse some spark here.
I have no more or less love for CBA than I do for Colts Neck, Lakewood, or Keansburg, etc.
Yes - Colts Neck playing in its first SCT final is a good story
in its own right.
I always like to see Shore teams do well..no matter who they are - in the state tournament.
I am strictly neutral when it comes to Shore vs. Shore teams - in any venue.
It doesn't matter to me one way or the other who wins tonight..
I would -
1. Like to see a good game.
2. Have it not go 12 innings!
3. And not end up 1-0..I've seen like 3-4 games like that this year and while they can be entertaining in their own right...a nice tidy 7-5, 6-4, 4-3 game would suit me just fine, personally - and - again - It doesn't matter to me who wins.
Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter,Chatter and EXCITEMENT!
CBA vs.Colts Neck tonight 7 PM First Energy Park!
Now there is a lot of chatter AND exitement!
long Live the QUADRUPLE CROWN, the legend grows.
BREAK OUT THE GATORADE another year down just like the 72 dolphins
Yes..the Wall 2004 team continues to stand alone as the only Shore Conference QC winner...
I'll bet Wall was hoping for a CBA win yesteray so they could have attempted to spoil it for the Colts tomorrow in the MCT ....
Tony
I think what you meant to say is that this is not a state championship game and not having a shore team in any of the states takes a little luster out of this game. I am sure CBA senior do not want their last game to be a shut out
What I meant to say was...I don't or didn't feel an air of electricity about this game that one would associate with an SCT final.
As I also said - it could just be me..
I am sure there are plenty of fans and parents, etc. who are juiced for this one and I do not mean to detract from it or it's importance.....I was offering a personal observation...
That's why they pay me the big bucks..well.. little bucks.. well... bread and water anyway....
