No Rhinos fans here yet it seems. First Leg of the Thruway Derby is coming up on the 14th. My bet is Dogs 2 Rhinos 0. Dawgs in the cup this year! Any takers?

Scott will personally crush 1 particular slow Rhinoe. Syracuse owns Rochester ( hockey and baseball notwithstanding)

Look for the record to be evened out after this season. Keep in mind that the Rhinos threw the last game at P&C away by resting their starters and usual subs. Remember, we made the playoffs, you guys went the golf course.

They'll be fun matches to watch seeing that 60% of the Syracuse squad is ex Rhinos and 60% of the Rochester squad is ex Dogs! The Schweitzer/Miller matchup is going to be a blast! Either team away is in for a bone chilling welcome! They're going to ban the Rhino's drums from the stands this year at P&C so the range roving yelpers will be somewhat subdued. All in all it will be fun!

Rochester can clinch one of the 8 A-league open cup spots with a win over Toronto today. Their worst PPM average would then be 2.00 (if they should lose the match against Syracuse), which would be better than any of the other qualifying series losers who don't have automatic entry status.

Of course they still want to win the series, because then they would enter in the third round and not the second, and also of course for the league points.

I too am looking forward to the Schweitzer/Miller match up, although I think Scottie is smarter and definatley is more skilled. If Schweitzer can just keep Miller in front of him and not let Miller beat him with his speed, Schweitzer wins. Miller cannot beat Schweitzer, or anyone, with the dribble and I have seen very few Miller passes connect in my years as a Rhino fan. Schweitzer wins the battle, Rhinos win the war, they have more firepower than just Dougie this year. Rhinos 1 SaltyDogs 0.
