Methodist or Baptist? 

Communion Wafers and Grape Juice... 

United Methodist Church documents

Welch's Grape Juice

The Welch family is credited with unfermented grape juice and its use a Communion elements, so that even alcoholics would not 'backslide" on Communion wine.

It looks like Josh Bowerman, Gray Fox and I will be able to come down for the UMHB-HSU game.

We would like to meet and "re-meet" as many fans as possible.

Per chance shall there be a tailgating opportunity for the visitors on Saturday?

A "Lime-Stone Station" perhaps?  Ralph- we will be there tail gating. Would like to meet you. Look for the Champagne colored Suburban with all the high school stickers on the back. Will try to get on the firsst or 2nd row.

Y'all go the home game!  Lots of fans are rolling in... It's a tradition that ought to be continued...   

[Ralph Turner]

crudbdad!

We will look for you.  Depending on the weather, I will probably wear my McMurry University Men's Track National Championship maroon T-shirt or a vintage McMurry Indian Baseball Warm-up Jacket!   

Looking forward to this!

[Ron Boerger]

But *where* do we find you, Ralph?  I estimate a strong chance of being able to go.

I'd wear my Trinity Stagg Bowl cap if I hadn't burned it already

Ron,

Thanks for your opinion that the Mules have not played a quality opponent all year...I was wondering when the Mule hater was coming out of the closet...Mules  by 7......now we know where the negative votes

came from every Monday....like the Mules could really pick their schedule......let's get real...many of the teams
in the playoffs haven't had a chance to play teams like MUC, Whitewater, North Central etc....through
no fault of their own.....does that mean they shouldn't get a chance to play the best..apparently not in your world,,,GO MULES

I will post a location later.  (Will discuss with Josh and GrayFox!)

Where will the best tail-gaiting location be?  The West side stands?  Or in the parking lot south of the stadium?

Muledaddy, respectfully, Ron Boerger was the South Region reporter from 2003 to 2005.  He has seen some very good teams back in the better days for Trinity, too.

I also look at the playoff history when Texas has played the northern half of the South Region.  Wesley gives us trouble!  Very few other teams in the other part of the region do.

I am holding silent on the outcomes.  I think that I know what will happen, but fortunately, it will be decided on the field.

Good luck.  I know with whom I think that we ASC match up better.  Let's see what happens on Saturday.

I think the south side gives you more room(have to take up 2 parking spots) and opportunity to see more people. Some people tailgate on the southwest side by the elementary school.

Well stated.  I, too, like to keep my slices of humble pie small.  I'm on a diet, you know.

I don't have any votes, but nice try.  I also don't know where you get that I think the Mules shouldn't 'get a chance to play the best' (which I suppose is your way of saying make the playoffs); they won their conference's automatic bid, and that's all you can ask any team to do. 

If Muhlenberg wanted to 'play the best' during the regular season, though, all they have to do is pick up the phone and call LK or coaches of any of the top programs who have problems lining up non-conference opponents.    Coach Fred at UMHB would be overjoyed to get a call, too, and that would even be an in-region game.   Don't boo-hoo me on your non-conference opponents, most everyone else picks who they want and if you have crappy non-conf opponents, you'll get called on it.  I've called my own alma mater on it this year fer cryin' out loud because it cost THEM.

You haven't played a single opponent that got into playoffs; I don't think you've even played one that was regionally ranked.  That's my definition of 'quality opponent.'

With an undefeated season on the line last week, the Mules snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.  Wesley is bigger, stronger, and faster than Moravian and has a heckuva lot more playoff experience, so I made a prediction you don't like.  Shoot me. 

And if I'm wrong - it will hardly be the first time and I'll come here, admit I was wrong, and congratulate the Mules on their 'upset' win.  Thankfully Pat extends all of us the ability to express our opinions, not just those who are so blinded by their support of the team their son plays on that they can't even consider another point of view.

This is one of the most petty posts I have seen in quite awhile.  First, you are wrong in your assumption of the voters in the poll and then you attack one of the most respected posters in the D3 world as well as the South Region.  If this is what you normally do, go back to your own board and post there and leave this to more educated posters.  One look at your karma tells me this is not the first time you have said something like this!!!

Ron & roocru,  +1.

[muledaddy]

Mates,

Quality teams, like Union and Wilkes, (in other years) are good non conference opponents for the Mules.

The fact that they were not really strong this year is hardly sufficient ammunition to cast stones at the Mules.TCNJ, whom we shut out last year, was not a bad opponent. (playoff team)
This board is about free speech, notwithstanding opinions to the contrary, as long as it relates to the
general topic. Personal attacks, namecalling, and describing others or their posts as "petty" reflects poorly
on those who think they are either superior or knowledgeable.Lighten up and enjoy the games......and the banter
...see the Mule-Wesley stats on the Centenniel board....its a tossup,Bill,Roo, and Ron

Wesley needs regional games too.
