BDB - Good luck with the puck tomorrow. We still have the Blue Devils at SJU tonight.

Nope, but for some reason, Bethel doesn't have a whole lot of bandwagon jumpers this year. I would have expected 5 new posters, but they must have already resigned themselves to defeat!

That's right. We've got a Johnnies / Blue Devils ice showdown tonight!

We get alot of the hockey guys in here before they hit the bus for road games.

That bus will show up with a bunch of snow on it.

I'll tell 'em to watch out for the Monkey Stomp.

Just talked to 4 of the guys.

They are pretty pumped up to play at the National Hockey Center. 8)

Stopped snowing about 1:00 and now the sun is coming out. 8)

Talked to some of my managers to the west and no snow. Eau Claire got like 6". We got about 3" of the crap.

She's on the melt meatgrinder now.

Well, the brats from Maneas's have been purchased and I've got 4 packages of jello at home along with the better part of a 1.75 of vodka just waiting to be prepared. It's still sounding like it's going to be a great day to watch the Royals get a beat down. See everyone in the morning. But first.....

A young boy came to Sunday school late one morning. His teacher knew that he was usually very punctual and asked him if anything was wrong. The boy said that he wanted to go fishing with his dad but his dad said that he needed to go to church instead.
The teacher was very impressed and asked the boy if his father had explained why it was more important to go to church. The boy replied, "Yes, dad said he didn't have enough bait for both of us".

Considering that the usual for Bethel home games is to show up at 12:55, I would say, yes you should be there a little earlier than "usual". However, SJU does have a nice sized visitor grandstand, so it will really depend on many fans Bethel brings. I would think that attendance should approach 5 figures.

Silly, if you get to campus by about 12:00, you should still get a decent parking spot close to the stadium. SJU ususally has a pretty late arriving crowd.

Veek, JR, et. al.....I'll be there about 8:30 ish to help out!

Veek · November 10, 2006, 03:29:48 PM

Chris - did you pick up buns for your brats? If not, let me know before 4:30 today and I'll pick some up. Just let me know how many. If you already got buns I'll go and get some other snacks for us prior to the grillfest.

TDT - if you are insisting that I be there by 8 a.m. you better make damn sure you are there. I'll be there bright and early.

Duff, Zip, Ritz, JR, and Dusty - what's your ETA for tomorrow?

TMERTON - I'm sorry to hear about your mother. My prayers are with you and your family.

BDB - I'm not looking ahead until after tomorrow's game but I was wondering if there is a chance that you might be making a playoff appearance the following week at SJU? You and Todd should consider coming over for another game.
