Comments for The Quest for Sixty at http://www.section8chicago.com , comment 1 to 7 out of 7 comments http://www.section8chicago.com Wed, 08 Sep 2010 20:22:48 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-671 I think sixty will be basically impossible because the East looks to be far more difficult than the West and we'll play more games in the East. If Seattle is considered one of the best teams in the West, then there's something out of balance in the conferences. - Ben Burton Mon, 20 Apr 2009 13:50:01 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-670 Joe, with the style of argument you use (or the lack thereof), your comments are inane and dissmissable. Please, elucidate for us how the stats used are "lazy" and/or how they "show no concept of what it means to play the actual games". That being said, I would rather be a loon and shoot for 60 than be a schmoe and simply resign myself to say that based on the lack of defeat in 4 games (now 5), that this team is not capable of such a lofty goal. Has the team come out and KILLED everyone they've played, no? But have they been getting it done? Yeah, to a certain degree....points from every game show that. And that IS the sort of grit it will take to get to 60. Probable? Not likely. Worthy aspiration? HELL YES. - mgiaco Mon, 20 Apr 2009 10:22:27 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-667 I think you're insane predicting sixty points based off of only four games. Stats like you're using are lazy and show no concept of what it means to play the actual games. Anyone who's seen our first four games can't possibly expect this team to be anywhere near as successful as you claim they will be. They have a lot of work to do to be a real winner. Seriously, you may have a screw loose. - JOE B Fri, 17 Apr 2009 01:11:49 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-665 Well we're talking about points so I thought it would be good to remember that we did tie for the shield on points twice. Sorry for not clarifying that but obviously we lost it both times because we've only won it once. - Ben Burton Tue, 14 Apr 2009 09:43:24 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-664 Nice piece JL. I think it would be almost impossible for the team to hit 60 points this season but it is a certainly a goal they should be aiming for. We all know that the league is very strong especially in the East. If the Fire can win 12 of its home games, I think it is very possible we could get close to 60. We have had a great start to the season but the game against a red hot KC will be our toughest so far. If we can get 3 points against them it would be fucking massive. - Stephen Piggott Tue, 14 Apr 2009 09:24:13 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-663 Of course. I acknowledge it's a bit crazy, but if we're aiming to be as good as we're made out to be, let's get an idea what we need to do over the rest of the year. As for tying twice for the shield, yeah that's technically true points-wise but we lost it both times on a tiebreaker... - JLM Tue, 14 Apr 2009 08:17:21 +0100 http://www.section8chicago.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=338:the-quest-for-sixty&catid=52:supporter-blogs&Itemid=1#comment-658 Don't forget we tied for the Shield twice. 60 points is going to be tough. I'm hoping for 12 more wins at home though. - Ben Burton Mon, 13 Apr 2009 14:56:04 +0100
