Does anyone care? What about he CS Poll?

[UNHWildCats]

Does anyone care? What about he CS Poll?

Since its the most accurate poll in FCS any real football fan would care... regardless of the feelings some may have towards AGS....

[slycat]

Doesn't look very accurate with the way UCA and Cal Poly are ranked.

So what if this poll is posted here. The CS.com poll will get posted over there.

My comment goes from track record.... It maybe unlikely, but those two teams could very well end up right around there come seasons end.

I know. I expect UCA to finish no higher then 3rd in the SLC.

Everyone who cares knows that AGS has a poll and can go there to see it. I think you are just stirring the pot by posting the AGS poll here.

[dbackjon]

It is ok - posting this is fine - we are a good enough site we don't have to delete any mention of another site

[bench]

Don't like AGS, don't like preseason polls – a perfect confluence of Things I Actively Despise in one tidy package

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

I see no problem with it being here. Maybe Travis is stirring the pot but I don't go over there too much and I do like most of the posters over there so since this is there work/opinions I'm glad to see it. I agree that preseason polls don't mean diddly but it is something to drive discussion which is Ok in my book. I don't mind if people know that they can get the information they want here and save a trip during the day.

I aint stirring the pot.... I like this place.... I have no reason to come here and cause trouble.

As I said... AGS has a nationally recognized poll, a poll the NCAA even recognizes on its website... I hope the forthcoming CS.com poll ends up at the same level as the AGS poll, and when it is released I will post it on AGS.

Travis, I'm not saying you are. I'm saying even if that was your intent it doesn't matter to most of us anyway. I don't see it as that, I'm glad you posted it here. I see you as an independent and trying to bring the information to others.

i know you weren't I just wanted to point out that I wasnt because others thought I was.

If you say so; I will take your word for it.

When have I given any hint of being here to cause trouble?

[Willie]

To me, preseason polls are like wiping before you poop, it just doesn't make sense.

Posting the poll here and getting people to talk about it isn't a bad thing. Great conversation and good fun is what makes this site great. Let's talk about this poll and the pro's and con's of where various teams are ranked until we have our own poll to discuss.

[UNHWildCats]

This thread.

then maybe I should get the benefit of the doubt since I dont have a track record of causing trouble? If this was the first instance that one thought I was trying to cause trouble... perhaps I wasnt.

[CID1990]

I didn't vote in the AGS poll, therefore its validity is questionable.

[kemajic]

This poll is far more realistic than the Sporting News poll. I think it's right on.

[DanJustDan29]

Oh, how neat...

[Ibanez]

My theory is if you want to post polls, do all of them.

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

What's stopping anyone from posting any polls Mark? What am i missing here? Why all the dissension over the posting of the AGS Poll? Hell I used to do it last year over here all the time.

I already said I'll take your word for it Travis. Let it go.

I don't think it's appropriate for the AGS poll to be posted here. I am in the minority on that issue, as most people seem to approve of it. I can accept that, now lets move on.
