Mr. Yipsi, I agree whole-heartedly on what you said. Any school that puts too much emphasis on one area doesn't give their students an opportunity to experience all that a smaller institution has.
NKD: "We need a f**king touchdown, excuse my French"
FBD: "I didn't know touchdown was French."

KnightSlayer101, not sure, but didn't we dominate you guys last year? How was that for you?

Please, don't let a close win go to our orange clouded brains.  Win is a win, but from where I was sitting it wasn't domination.
We also need to be a little more cognizant of history.  I'm not going to get too cocky about a championship or two until our football team gets on a roll like our wrestlers. Until then, the Dutch are the elephant in the room when it comes to football. You can't ignore them.  Don't get me wrong, the Knights have had a good run for the last twenty years or so, but we haven't distanced ourselves from the Central Dutch.  
If they were being truthful, I would guess most Dutch fans would say they are hearing footsteps getting closer, but that clunky knight armour hasn't yet pulled ahead on a regular basis.    
Look at it this way, until fans of other teams in the IIAC are more likely to storm the field after beating the Knights rather than after beating the Dutch, we can't get too full of ourselves.

Is it possible DutchDom & Knightslayer might be one in the same?????  It sure has helped liven things up in the absence of actual IIAC football going on.
Win or lose we still booze!!

Looks like Coe filled the open spot on their schedule with North Central.  Big change from Iowa Wesleyan.

Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble.

I'm gonna love seeing this guy get out of the hole he's digging for himself.

I seen a couple of life line ropes thrown, but I guess someone likes to use a shovel... ;)

Yeah Dominator, nice "domination" winning by 3 points. I was actually at that game and Wartburg got a few lucky breaks. It won't happen again, the problem is that you guys don't win very often so when you do pull off the rare victory it is like your Super Bowl...to us its just another day at the office. If you watch Coach McMartin's YouTube clips its quite obvious to me and the rest of the Dutch nation that we won't let that happen again...not on our watch. GO BIG RED!
STAGG BOWL OR BUST. NUFF SAID.

And....Football Daddy has just been replaced as the most hated guy on IIAC PP. FBDaddy, could you send these guys your rusty crown immediately? That is, if you're ready to give it up. ;)

Seriously, guys, I'm all about the healthy competition between Central and Wartburg -- it's my favorite rivalry in the IIAC. But it's a rivalry built on mutual respect, earned over several years. Over the last 15 years, I would imagine this is the most even rivalry in the conference. Trash talk if you must, but some of us old-timers know the score pretty well, and take no win for granted in the Dutch/Knight series.

Thanks dutchfan1, I was about to burn all my Cornhusker shirts and you know how I love the University of Nebraska.  I appreciate your input.  You have kept me from making a terrible mistake.

Willie University

Sorry.....been a way for a while and looks like I missed some juicy conversation!

Haven't had much sleep recently since the birth of my daughter  ;)

I named her:

Williette University
All IIAC Volleyball, Basketball, and Softball
University of Dubuque
Class of 2032 (if my math is correct....remember, sleep deprived  ;)

D-Dog....to answer your question, UD is in no way, shape, or form leaving the IIAC.

UD has become competitive in a majority of its athletic programs so that is absurd to ever even think about leaving the conference.


Willie U

doolittledog

Congrats to WillieU...I suspected child #2 might have recently arrived.  Best of luck to you when she becomes a teenager :D

DutchDominator

Yeah, congrats WillieU, just a little advice--avoid Central. If DutchFan 1, or even KnightSlayer 101 are any sort of representation of what that school produces I would avoid it like the plague. Those two don't seem well informed on anything.
;) I'm winking but I'm sorta serious  ;)

AZDutchman

I haven't seen any of the IIAC's recruiters down here in Arizona?
except for....
Centrals!
He's down here swiping up all the great players!   8-)
