Wonka, did I ever make your column or was my stuff too lame? I understand if it was.   

You got cut, especially since you PMed me a day after the games. We're a daily and had run the info already.

On a brighter note, I just fired off an email to Dave Campbell, Minnesota AP writer extraordinairre, and Frank the Tank inviting them to Saturday's fun. There's an 80% chance I'll be in attendance. However, that improves to 99% if Mongo makes the trip.

Could it be University of Wisconsin Whitewater Warhawks.  there's your 3 w's

I like the Wisconsin Whitewater WINNING Warhawks!!  That is 4 W's by my count!

The more Royals the better!

tmerton, I gotta tell ya.. this was a Top 10 post in my book!  

Well, it was the picture next to it that might have brought down the house - google men dancing for images and check the one labeled "men dancing at Kaminabit" (KR - what is that guy's medical condition )

Pretty quiet this morning.  To be expected when you haven't had your daily dose of Anna yet...

The two-deeps for UWRF is here.  Their OL, from RT to LT, appears to run as follows: 5-11 277, 5-10 285, 6-4 330, 6-8 308, 6-5 262. 

I think they may just run left.  Thoughts on that?

How does it feel to be a starting tackle and the runt of the offensive line?

Did anybody hear about KRs first procedure on his first couple days.  Went something like this....   "Get me an Ender nail, and a nail gun, Get me a Cortical Screw, Screwdriver, and throw in a Antiglide Plate,"    But Doctor, Porta has a fracture in his hand?  " Don't Back talk me nurse", and for God sakes, get me a red cup, this guys in a lot of Pain!!!!   

KR.  do they alow kilts in the O.R.??

For any Gustie fans planning to make the trip out west, they are predicting partly cloudy with highs around 75 degrees. It should be great football weather!

I didn't know that TDT is coaching youth football in California:

TDT finally takes on somebody his own size

Miacwatchman,

Your picture of Zidane's hit brings to mind the term spearing.  Are you saying that the Johnnies always tackle with an illegal hit? lol just trying to clarify what you mean by that's a johnnies hit.

Maybe he meant they hit like soccer players.

It's crazy quiet in here today.  Odd.

SJU game notes are up, as are the UWRF notes.

Apparently (UWRF Head Coach) O'Grady's daughter is a Tommie.  Too bad....

Ah...it brings a tear to the eye. I will have to make my co-workers watch it during staff meeting!

[DuffMan]

Excellent, JP!

I'm a little disappointed that we won't get to see the Falcons run the wishbone this weekend.  It'll be interesting to see this "zone offense" that they're touting.  I have a feeling it'll be similar to what we've seen from the Blugolds the past few years, with a bit more emphasis on running the ball.

I think our D will stack up well against it.

What's the plan for Stiftungsfestivities?  I'm gonna toss my vote in to start a bit later this week.  I'll probably be there between 9:00-9:30.

Naw, I was just saying it knocked his shoes off.
