Oh CRAP! That was post 200 and I completely whiffed on the execution. It could have been SO MUCH BETTER. Oh well. Not every milestone is as memorable as John's 409 or KR's 2000...

[DuffMan]

Congrats to Damien Dumonceaux for being named a finalist for the Gagliardi Trophy!  What an honor!

[Touchdown Tommy]

Ritzy,

Did I correctly interpret your last post to mean you will NOT be coming to Whitewater this weekend?  If so, care to share the extenuating circumstances...

Irish,

Glad to have you back bud.  Looking forward to having you back with the tailgating crew on Saturday morn.  Stay outta trouble.

The biggest upset would have to be Conc vs. Linfield this year, because even though the SJU team was the underdog that year, I think they had tons of talent that many people over looked because they were playing the "mighty raiders" (No relation to me ).  They missed the fact that they had McCambridge, Hood, and some dude with the last name of Elliot.  I think SJU vs. MUC wasn't such a surprise, as the Conc/Linfield game WILL be.

My 2 cents,
Mighty Royal

Why are you fishing so hard MR?  Shouldn't you be going out to 7-11's and firing up their microwaves to see if your company's pacemakers explode?

WC11,

Just think, he isn't even a Johnnie!

[Old Fighting Scot]

Congrats to Damien Dumonceaux for being named a finalist for the Gagliardi Trophy!  What an honor!

MC QB Mitch Tanney is on the list as well.  Wouldnt it be ironic if he gained more votes than dumonceaux.....

Not going to the game: $20 - 30 of hamms and some OR popcorn

Going to the game :  $100 (actual costs of going) + $600 per month until both kids are 18.......

Also, in the vote------Ritz -1 Mrs. Ritz -1 ---I wont go into the tie breaker!!

ROR,

Careful what you wish for.  I just might dominate you and Mrs. 56321 at the same time.  Perhaps it isn't a coincidence that Duffman is "bowing out" of the official shotgun competition this weekend because the Bus will be in attendance.  Highly ironic if I might say so myself....

[Johnnie Red]

Kubiack78, as mentioned by Finsleft, the Stiftungsfest is the oldest celebration in Minnesota. It started in 1861. The town that hosted it forever was Young America. In 1997 Young America merged with my hometown, Norwood, and is now called Norwood Young America. Pretty original, huh?? Have to leave it to those Germans for the creativity. Plenty of German music, beer, softball and all the burgers you could ever want. Always the last weekend in August.

So who is 1_for_27 and why does he  mention that the HOGS are ready to kill johnnie red? Someone I sent to prison?

Frankrickard, if you are interested in carpooling down to Janesville with me Friday afternoon, email me today or tomorrow. You can always get a room at the Super 8 at a pretty reasonable price and party with the Johnnie crew Friday night.

SJU56321, seeing that you are bringing the polish sausage from Chicago again, would it be possible for you to also bring a grill and a table? Veek, you should probably also bring along your grill. The more the better.

[sju56321]

JR, I will try to bring a table-not sure what I can fit into the car. Unfortunately, I do not have a small grill.

[Maroon&Gold]

Congrats to Dumo on being a Gagliardi finalist. Well deserved to say the least.


Anyone know how the finalists are chosen exactly??

[Retired Old Rat]

JR, I will have a grill.

Just got an email from some former teamates of mine and it sounds like there could possibly be a shotgun showdown... if the johnnies are up for it

as you guys say developing...

The Gagliardi Trophy

Presented annually to the outstanding football player in NCAA Division III football by Jostens, Inc. and the J-Club of Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minn.

The Gagliardi Trophy was first presented in 1993 to the Outstanding Division III football player of the year by Jostens and the J-Club of Saint John's University. Since that time, the award has become one of the leading collegiate football awards and is widely recognized as the premier individual award in Division III football, honoring excellence in athletics, academics and community service.

If anyone is looking to go to the game but save some cash, I have a seat open.

For $20, you get a luxurious ride in Duffman's 2004 Honda Accord.  Leaving the Twin Cities area between 4 and 4:30 am Saturday and returning after the game.  As of now, I have myself and 2 2003 players.  E-mail or PM me if interested.
