What would a good title to the book on officials be?

Unfortunately, "Crime and Punishment" is already taken.

Who is the best QB in the MIAA?
Kinda early to tell - was hoping that Bodner(WLC) would make noise but he needs a line.

No offense, but given WLC's current lean football times, even though he's a gamer, I figured it was best to leave his name off the poll.

Hi all,  I am afraid I am the bringer of terrible news.
Many of you know formerd3db (Todd) who frequently posts on this board and is a Hope Alum.
Todd and I are good friends.  He sent me an email today telling me that his Mother passed away yesterday, unexpectedly.  Please keep Todd and his family in your prayers.  He asks everybody to be thinking about him and his family as I am sure it has to be very difficult for them right now.
Times like this make football take a back seat in what matters most in life.

My prayers go out to formerd3 and his family.  May you feel God's presence in this time of sorrow.

Formerd3db,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Sorry to hear of your loss.

If any of each wish to send a condolence card and/or your thoughts to formerd3db, email me (use my comcast email) and I will get you Todd's mailing address.  I can only imagine how hard it must be for him and his family right now.

My prayers are with you and your family. May the Good Lord keep you and yours safely wrapped in His arms.

Thank you to all of my friends here on the MIAA board for your very kind comments and prayers.  They are appreciated more than you might know.  I will talk to you all later.  God Bless all of you and thanks again.
Best,

Attempting to get Adrian's feed of the Adrian/Olivet game as I post:

Ah--success!! The broadcast just began.

(Would have started posting ealier, but I decided to take in WLC's home Northern Athletics Conference volleyball match against Benedictine of IL. The Warriors put forth a good effort, but still lost, 3 games to 1. The volleyball team has won several matches this season, though.)

Side note:  Once football joins NathCon in '08, it'll be like going from the frying pan into the fire. WLC trades off Albion, Alma and Adrian for Lakeland and Concordia WI. Six on one, half a dozen on the other.

Spencer just missed on a FG attempt:

[WLCALUM83]

Olivet 7, Adrian 0. (Clasgens 1 yard run). 1st Qrtr.

[WLCALUM83]

Olivet 10, Adrian 0. 2nd Qrtr.

[WLCALUM83]

1:27 left in 2nd Qrtr:  Olivet 10, Adrian 7.

[WLCALUM83]

Final:  Olivet 13, Adrian 10.
