Ok, the weather people tell me that it is going to be cold, maybe - likely wet, and of course windy. What does that mean? I show up with breakfast sandwiches and beer, many layers of clothing and possibly even some cover to stay dry before the game. The kids show up at some point because they cant hang anymore and have to get rest. Ski stops by and we chat about the game and what may happen. Pawesleyfan, may - will stop by and say hi depending on how early he arrives which I am sure will be determined by the weather. Time to go in and watch the game, which I believe will be over by half time unless Wesley makes too many mistakes. Early common opponent says this game is not close. If I was Johns Hopkins I would be more concerned about the fact that they only scored 14 on Ursinus which I dont believe has a defense close to the one Wesley has. The offense will score as they have all year and Wethissley wins in similar fashion to the Miss Coll game. I will be making the trip to Alliance next weekend to see how Wesley stacks up to the Machine, who else will be going?

Ski, 2 sandwiches as usual, or would you prefer the breakfast burrito?

Well if things go as planned, you & beenhit2hard will be battling it out for a trip to Salem next weekend. I know one of you will be there regardless. I'll have to take a raincheck (literally) this weekend but I will be listening. Brunch is on me and all my Stone Station faithful when you get to the Stagg Bowl. Wesleydad, Pat C., K Mack I'm sure will agree, it will be the best $12.50 you will ever spend to see football the way it should be played! Now I'm off to watch "The Civil War", ducks and beavers can both swim but only one can fly. Should be a Dam good game. See you in Salem, Virginia that is for all you Linfield fans.

Man I thought we would see you this week for sure! Beenhit2hard has ben a regular at Wesley games this year.

SaintsFan

The wind no matter how bad it is does not take Wesley away from it's passing game. But it does give opposing teams fits. We have seen teams with great running games come into Wesley and go home shaking their heads. We have also seen QB's come undone from the pressure Wesley's front four comes with. Johns Hopkins is coming in with two big wins and I am sure they will be fired up but there is just something different with this Wesley squad. They don't get riled. I think Wesley wins but it may be close if the running games are the dominate force because of weather.

Wesleydad

I may be flying solo this week. Someone isn't feeling too good. But if he is up to the trip I am sure he will be down too. I agree that Wesley will have to take care of the ball but that hasn't really been a problem this year.

waterboy

are you making the trip?

thewaterboy · December 03, 2009, 09:03:12 PM

Not this week. But if Wesley advances, Ill be there the rest of the way.

wesleydad · December 03, 2009, 09:22:06 PM

llama, sorry to hear that you are not making the trip, but i understand totally. You know that Jason and I will be there for the brunch, communion, and all the other great things that go on at the Stagg. Do I have those 2 tickets you mentioned? We will be arriving Friday afternoon so you guys will have to let me know where the hang out will be.

Pawesley, hope dad is feeling well enough to come, always glad to see him at the games. If he cant make it with the weather, that is understandable.

Waterboy, if there is a game next weekend, i will be there, joining some of my mount friends for a mexican breakfast with frozen margaritas before the game, i am sure that you would also be welcome. the guys are great hosts and the food aint bad either. I will surely hang around after the game for some tailgating too.

Well, the temporary stands were installed today. Two endzone. I'm not sure if it's true, but the figure of 3000 JH fans may be in attendance for the game. Now, the weather might cause a drop in attendance though. This one might beat out the 2005 Bridgewater game.

The team is again focused on the task at hand. Johns Hopkins is a cinderella team, and one to be taken seriously, no matter how good you may be.

And yes, I would like two of the usual. No burritos, please. And many thanks, Wesleydad!!

wesleydad,

Yessir... my plan is to be in Alliance next weekend. So we have that to look forward to at least...

Bulldog10 · December 04, 2009, 10:33:11 AM

Will this game be sold out? To the point where they stop letting people in?

Yep plan to be in your usual spot, 50 yrdline at the Stagg. At present there are about 16 coming from Bridgewater, 4 from Texas, 2 from HSC and yourself. Since there is a gun show in the civic center I have a sneaky suspicion that AF4 and boy may be there if he is physically able.

Good luck tomorrow. If the game is attended like BC 2005 then it should be quite an atmosphere. Made me think of our 2000-2005 playoff run where we took 1500 fans wherever we played in the playoffs, from Washington, PA to Theil, CNU, Dover, etc.
Take in every playoff game for your team you can get to! After not going to the playoffs for 4 years it sure allows one to appreciate how enjoyable it is to go. There is no tailgate and game like a playoff game. I'll be listening!

Would be nice if Wesley dropped the $20. partking fee this week back to $5 to open up the parking area?? There won't be much room within blocks to park !! I know why it was raised but under the circumstances with maybe the biggest crowd ever expected maybe they could change thee policy for the day

Is it true that you can't go back to your car after the game starts or during half time?

I know its not the topic here... but how did you like the TMC Tailgate, GoHop? You guys were the 1st team we saw actually cater in food. Almost as impressive as what JHU did to Thomas More on the field.

SaintsFan, JHU parents and fans have travelled well this year, tailgates have been good all year, especially at home games. Only the playoff games have been catered, pulled pork at Hampden-Sydney, ribs & chili at TMC, can't wait to see what we have at Wesley... Stop by if you're there

Why would you want to cover that Viking logo? (he,he,he) I wore a Mt Union hat to the Wesley vs. UMHB game in Dover a few years ago. Yes a few heads turned but not nearly as many as would have turned had I wore my UWW hat. Have fun tomorrow or rather today! Good luck Wolverines.

wesleydad · December 05, 2009, 07:22:03 AM

Well, the weather man finally gets it right. Sucks. Game time in less than 5 hours. If JHU travels that well it will make for a fun atmosphere. GOHoP, look for me, I will have a #13 jersey on, hanging out with some college kids since all my old tailgate friends kids have left the school. Weather will not effect the field much since it is turf nor do I think it hurts Wesley's offense. If the defense plays as well as it has all year and Wesley protects the ball like the have most of the year, they will win this game, say, 35 - 10. Safe travels to the Hopkins faithful and enjoy the game.
