You are kidding.
We are starting the NCAA baseball tournament. Where SBU ranks amoung tournament teams is completely relevant now. If you don't like other opinions, you should stay on the SBU board if there is one.
To me the 16 best teams should have #1 seeds in the tournament and be ranked 1-16 in ANY poll. The 2 seeds should be teams 17-32. Obviously there is some room for debate over who the best 16 or 32 teams are, but when a team far removed from that criteria gets a #1 or #2 seed there is going to be outrage and when a team far removed from that criteria is put in that spot in the poll over a more deserving that poll loses value.
BTW, SBU spot in the poll kept ZERO teams out of the field and it knocked 0 of the top 32 teams out of the number 1 and 2 seeds. So who really should I be "offering condolences" to.

Stony Brook is ranked for the first time ever in the Baseball America poll at #25. Whether its over-rated or not we are going to find out in the next two weeks. I certainly hope that the Polls see something we don't...
It is pretty safe to assume they would noot have gotten an at large. The only team in the field I see on their schedule was East Carolina whom SBU was 0-3 agianst. Ironically that is a team that baseball america thinks was seed too high.

http://www.baseballamerica.com/blog/...a-field-of-64/

" Afore-mentioned East Carolina had no business getting a No. 2 seed. We had ECU as the final team in the field in our final projection, and Wake Forest deserves to be in the field over the Pirates, too. ECU played very poorly down the stretch, losing three of its final four series (including a sweep at Southern Miss to end the season) and going 1-2 in the Conference USA tournament. The Pirates were just 3-8 against the top 25 and 5-10 against the top 50, and they lost their series against four of the five teams that finished ahead of them in the standings. East Carolina getting an at-large team is defensible, but not at Wake's expense, and not as a No. 2. The committee clearly leaned heavily upon the RPI this year—the Pirates rank 32nd in that measure."

When was I talking about NCAA seeding? You said that Stony Brook shouldn't be on the NCBWA poll because you find polls disparaging to the teams not included. It that's the case, you shouldn't be complaining to Stony Brook fans about their inclusion, but rather going to places like the Albany board and explaining to them that "those guys don't know what they're talking about" and "you'll show em next time" in much the same way a Dad might try to console his son after getting cut from his junior high team.

Talk about a dumb post. Either you are smart enough to make intelligent points or you make a post like yours deflecting to "other boards". I pretty sure those the Albany board already have a better understanding of what a top 30 team is than you do. But go ahead and make stupid analogies and suggestions to COVER UP your shortcomings.

Are not the top 30 baseball teams the 1 and 2 seeds in the tournament. If not, why not

I said SBU should not be in the poll because they are not one of the best 30 teams. They are 0-3 against top 100 teams and have played 42 of their 57 games against teams ranked 200 or worse.
It is a minor issue that a legitimate team was not recognized in a poll, but you keep worrying about that while the real top 32 teams with the 1 and 2 seeds try to play to advance in the NCAA tourney.

Bougus poll results like this is why I am glad this gets decided on the field and this is why polls are not taken seriously.

I wonder what would you say if SBU advances to a super-regional. I think you and the rest of us need to shut up and wait to see what happens.

LOL on that article especially the headline.
After the talk of a "snub" rather than a choke last year and talk from this team that they deserve a better seed in spite of the fact they did not go out any beat any quality (top 100) teams this season, let's hope this team at least shows up and is at least competitve tomorrow.
It is put up or shut up time for this team as they move up in class.

Good luck to Stony Brook in the Regional. The Seawolves program has become one of the top programs North of the Mason/Dixon line......period.

Seawolves lead 1-0 on a double and follow-up bunt as the pitcher throws the ball away. Being aggresive! Go Seawolves
