HopeVet (and sac):

Thanks for the answer to the Blackledge question.  Also, I join the others in welcoming you HopeVet to the board.

There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.

If this takes, and I don't get too much negative karma, I may even talk about the mustard and ketchup containers at DeVos on the basketball board.
I hear they're pretty bad.

That is disgusting! ::) ;D :D ;) :)  Hot dogs are good, but messy one's not so fun!  I ate a hot dog at Hope's last home game during halftime and it squirted (exploded juice) all over my pants! :P ::) But...the hot dog did taste good!

AO is clearly not familiar with the long running and now 8 year old joke about DeVos' ketchup and mustard dispensers, the cadillac of all ketchup and mustard dispensers.  A posting of photos on the college website of the grand opening celebration showed the ketchup and mustard dispensers arrogantly posing along the concourse.


I'm sorry to say I believe those photos have been lost to website upgrades. :'(

It is, truly sad that those photos are gone.  They were the sources of such a good long series of jokes, and could be counted on to show up at just the right time whenever tensions in the room got too high.  I'll admit that after seeing AO's post I spent a good deal of time trying to find those photos somewhere.  Alas, I eventually had to give up.

Thanks for finding the photos!  Now I know "the rest of the story" that you and sac have been relating.  It just completed the "picture"!

Anyway, what are everyone's predictions for tomorrow's MIAA games?

Good to hear from you.  I would have to agree with that.  However, while I obviously am confident and hope we beat Adrian, I believe it will still be a tough and probably close game, even thought it is at our home stadium and also it being our Homecoming.  I assume your Mount will not have a problem!   ;)

Has the MIAA given much thought to adding a football affiliate member (ala WisLu) to ease the conference schedule?  Or are they crossing their fingers that Calvin will finally add football soon?

And no, I have no idea who they could get for an affiliate even if they wanted to go that route.
