Easily set off? I seem to remember someone flying off the handle a few weeks ago when he was going to skip a game because his son was hurt and another poster suggested that he should attend anyways.

I think we all remember that the Tommies nearly pulled off an upset two years ago. Yup, 2 years ago. Wow.

Gotta love Halloween and work as sweet excuse to drink and dress up as an 80's rocker on a Monday night.

TRU
Why do all you SJU guys always like to state the obvious, that you beat UST or CST all the time. I have never disputed your team's dominance. I think you may be correct about the the fact that UST should be better and maybe it is the coaches.

Duffman,
Do you have kids? If so, then I guess you might understand if someone were to question your relationship with them. You can say all you want about me or my alma mater, but when you question my family, you are damn straight I will response vigorously. If you want to compare that to what I said about your team in my earlier e-mail, I guess you can, but hardly a similar comparison.

Thommies Suck! Thommies Suck!

Mmmm. That did make me happy. Thanks for the suggestion, knight. I'll keep those words in mind for the next time I need a pick-me-up.

A 6-year old girl would have been too harsh of competition for Bus Driver...therefore, he did not shotgun

Best insult of the day!

So, am I the only guy, old guy at that, who is worried about the UST game?

Really, those SJU-STU games are like the Packer-Viking games where no matter what the team records might be, all bets are even.

Someone console me that I should NOT be worried.

Thanks!

Greetings fellow posters,

The Bus had quite an enjoyable experience in Collegeville on Saturday. Frank is 100% right that indeed the Stiftungsfestivities were raised to a new level by many of the activities during the course of the morning. Big thanks to Johnny Red for his generous hospitality/best burgers in the land, Veek for the plentiful adult beverages, and fins for that "kicked up" kool-aid. The Bus wrote down the phone number for the Pregnancy hotline and will use it if need be. Advertising at the Annex...who woulda thought?

Hope nobody misses Longerboom. The Bus sees he had some kind words to say on Saturday evening. Maybe he drank some of the Bethel kool-aid...

Oh wait....

Let's leave families off the board and stick to making fun of each others' team, school, and own self....

otherwise I'll have to start talking about Duff's momma...ane nobody wants that

Holbi1,

I go back and forth on that. I think that after what happened 2 years ago the coaches will have this team ready.

So, worry, but not too much.

Retired Old Rat · October 31, 2005, 10:08:49 PM

Does The Bus have power?

Touchdown Tommy · October 31, 2005, 10:14:01 PM

Bus is refueled and ready for the Tommies in a couple weeks. The Bus is hopeful the Toms realize they are entering a World of Hurt. This game will not be close this year.

Is Gallaudet http://www.d3football.com/opendates.php?get&date=2006-11-11 going to pull a Northwestern style double header next year?

ROR--
I believe you are right about the coaches reminding the players what happened in 2003 so I gotta believe the Johns will be ready. It may not be a close game as so many of you predict. I know my son enjoyed the experience from the 2002 game (he was matched up against Clintsman) and I had to be out of town on a business project, so I didn't get to see him play. This year, due to injuries, he will likely miss the game, which is too bad since he is one of a handful of the guys on the current defensive roster who has played extensively in a UST-SJU game. I think that game experience would help any of the young UST kids.

KR--
Your team is beyond making fun of since they are so dominant.

Oz--

If assuming 93 refers to your graduation year that would make you in your mid 30s, I would think you should be so over the "tommies suck" stage at this point in your life, but evidently I am wrong. To steal a phrase from a radio personality, I'm happy for you.

Good point but don't let that discourage you from making fun of me personally or my skool

I think ROR's damn near 80 and he's not over the Tommie's suck stage.

I hope I never get through it... it just makes me warm and tingly inside to say/type it!

TOMMIES SUCK!!!!
