Did someone say "free beer" ?!?!

You know, I have an orange sweatshirt and an orange winter coat I could throw on saturday!!!

Though I suppose that after hosting my side of the family on Friday my wife will have just a bit of cleanup around the house for me to do on Saturday.  Hopefully I will be able to watch or listen to the game this week. 

Go Knights!!! 

Clean up is what Friday is for.  You can still make it.

Walston.....I will become an ex-anything with promises of free beer.

Make sure you stop by. We'll be the rowdie group of hasbeens and neverwere's throwing the football around. I'll be the overweight (but not obese) guy with the 48 ounce non clear plastic mug full of *pop*.
Tunes will be blaring from our minivan and we'll probably make you clap along to the Wartburg fight song, but that's about it.
I grew up Presbyterian and am Scottish so you guys can't be all bad.

Throwing football around, 48-ounce non-clear plastic mug full of "pop", blaring the tunes, and you're Scottish...you know Walston, for not being a Scots fan, you don't sound all that bad either.

Oh I'm bad, reeeeeeeeal bad.

Thursday is with my wifes side of the family.  Friday is with my side of the family.  Which makes Saturday clean up day.  I probably COULD make it to the game.  But I suspect if I did do that my wife would write a letter to Santa telling him I had been a bad boy this year.  I want to find toys in my stocking this Christmas...not a lump of coal!!!

Now, if Wartburg makes it to another round after this weekend.  I think my wife would let me go at that point...provided their game is at least in a border state to Iowa!!!

For being a "hasbeen or neverwas" I will commend you for being able to throw a football and handle a 48-oz plastic mug at the same time. I am sure I will stop by. I am planning on getting there around 9, but that depends on my Friday night activities in the greater-Peoria area.

[Walston Hoover]

The guy I played next to on the line at Wartburg tells me he will be there at 7 holding us a spot. Probably be sitting there drinking gin-ups as the sun comes up.

So what you're saying is...you'll be there by 9 since choir practice won't keep you out late on Friday night in the greater-Peoria area...right?

Well you did make the sacrifice of spending Thanksgiving with her side of the family.  I will have a house full.  If my Dr student does not have to work in the ER we will all be home for the holiday.  That has not happened for a long time.  I think we will get the grubbie clothes out and have the traditional family football game.  This goes back to when I was a boy.  Uncle, Aunt, my Dad, me and other family members would get out in the weather no matter what it was and play.  Does not sound like we will have snow this year but has happened.  Those are the most fun.  I think I will attempt to get the youngest son on my team.    Hopefully that will make up for my lessening mobility.  

[Scots4]

Haha yeah thats it Maverick. Either that or Hairbangers Ball is playing at SOP's on Friday night and SOP's has a 4am liquor license and the band doesnt take the state till 11:30.


Walston....Gin-ups? Are those what I did in the presidential physical fitness program in high school? If so, I can do 7 gin-ups.

[Walston Hoover]

Don't go knocking choir boys. I'm a former one myself. 3 time champs of the tenor/bass drink-off.
Tenors-Women want us, men want to be us.

Oh I'm bad, reeeeeeeeal bad.

I wasn't say that school colors had anything to do with it.  I was asking if anyone felt drawn to one school or another based off of colors.  Like Maslow's dogs and the ringing bells.

You got me on that one.  To many things running through a small brain today.  Hey nobody ever accused me of being the poster child for academic progress at BV, but I do know how to make lots of money (insert tounge in check)

I have heard of other families doing things like this.  My family is to small and far to Irsh to crawl out from under the whiskey flask and play a game on Thanksgiving.  Anyone else have and fun family football related traditions?

Good call man, I live in Peoria these days and saw them at SOP's awhile back--was a good show.  And that 4 am liquor license is something else too...
