Got an opportunity to see the ring today. Pretty impressive.

I hope we got a discount since the manufacturer had to make them for WMU NIU UT CMU.

"MAC WEST CHAMPIONS" slightly inaccurate-misleading.

Actually, as misleading as it may be, it sounds a lot better than MAC West Regular Season co-Champions.

I wonder how the other co-champions handled it?

Not really, Champions is plural.

Really?

Who cares?

If we were MAC WEST CHAMPIONS we would've played in MACC game, so in reality NIU was THE MAC West champion.

True, but why be so miserable? I'm enjoying supporting this program as much as ever.

I'm looking forward to enjoying an undisputed championship season this Fall!

Agreed.

WMU finished in 2nd place when you factor-in tie breakers, which we should.

No rings for 2nd place.

Sorry.

This ring is a reach and inappropriate.

I fully expect WMU to kick azz this season and win it all

It's strikes me as a Bahamas Bowl ring first with all of the other stuff added in. There's a lot of ring real estate to fill in.

A Bowl Championship ring is fine.

It should have been left at that, however.

Geez, what's the big deal. It's a list of accomplishments throughout the year. Good for them. It's something the kids will have to remember and share with their children when they are older . RTB

Agree with this take. To me it is kind of like a certain divisional rival that likes to include division titles in with their MAC titles when they are bragging.

Unless our team is PLAYING IN the conference championship game, they are not division champs. Period. They may have had the same divisional record as others but if we don't win the tie breakers, we are not divisional champs.

Maybe this is the year that the Broncos break through and actually get there. I'm expecting big things from them this season. PJ has talked a lot, now it's time to deliver.

You,sir, have the right attitude. Earn it,then wear it. This could be your year...but earn it on the field. Good luck this year.
