FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

Wouldn't that be nice. The Tommies fall off the radar earlier and Mike is back in the dirt looking for arrowheads.

[OzJohnnie]

You may be correct in your assessment SJU. however, St. Norbert is much more worthy opponent than who the Johnnies schduled 1st game, Northwestern? Common Slug's!!!

Ha!  Classic Tommie supporter: We're awesome, but we'll probably still lose.

Anyone listen to AM 1500 in the twin cities?  I've listened a handful of times when Tom Linnemann has been co-hosting...he's pretty entertaining to listen to, and seems to know his stuff. (Even if he is a Johnnie  )

Being that I've only followed D3 football closely since about 2003 (like most kids, I couldn't have cared less about d3 while I was in HS), how did the J's do when he was running things?  Was he a team mvp type, or just a cog in the johnnie offense?

Nearly won a national title in 2000 with Tommy at the helm (10-7 loss to Mount Union in the Stagg).  Say what you will about Tom's athletic prowess, but he could sure run a huddle.  I think his charisma/leadership was his biggest strength as a QB.  He knows the game very well.  Granted, he was surrounded by some top-notch team mates, too.

"Granted, he was surrounded by some top-notch team mates, too." Like on defense?

I saw that team, Tmerton. His assessment is more than fair.

So, does this guy look like a 1996 grad of MUC?  Speaking of, where's raiderguy?  Maybe they were in the same class ...

Actually, I was used as an offensive guard most of the year in 2000, and I spent most of the year as a 2nd/3rd stringer; no reason to toot my horn

Your welcome Duff....got to travel didn't you?

Hey, Pat - maybe you should let the Johnnie fans razz each other a bit rather than thinking you have to set the record straight on SJU football.  Glad to see you covering for Duff, though.  There's a first for everything I guess.

[Pat Coleman]

Go figure, there was St. John's football before you came on the scene.

Geez, get off my back, Coleman    I never claimed to be an all-star--just and ordinary guy that did ordinary things extraordinarily well 

[Touchdown Tommy]

I can't wait to see you in a couple months Clark!!!  Have you finalized your 2010 appearance schedule??

[janesvilleflash]

+k for tmert for stirring the pot.
