Wow. Amazing news on St. Cloud State.

A question for minds greater than mine: the option that would save FB would cut eight sports. Don't you need to have a certain number of sports to remain D2? I believe that was an NCAA reg at one point.

ret and carletonsid:
even as my handicap creeps higher, those tales are simply brutal. condolences.

D2 requires 10 sports, SCSU currently fields 21 teams, so cutting eight teams would not be a problem, it's just a matter of which teams you have to cut in order to comply with title IX.

As the season gets close I better practice up on posting:

A  little guy is sitting at the bar staring at his drink when a large, trouble-making biker steps up next to him,
grabs his drink and gulps it down in one swig. "Well,  whatcha gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly,  as the little guy bursts into tears. 
"Come  on, man," the biker says, " I didn't think you'd  CRY. I can't stand to see a man crying."  "This  is the worst day of my life," says the little  guy. "I`m a complete failure. I was late to a meeting,  and my Boss fired me. When I went to the car park, I found my car stolen and I don't have any  insurance, I left my wallet in the cab I took  home.  I found my wife in bed with the milk man and then my dog bit me. So  I came to this bar to work up the courage to put an end to it all. I  buy a drink,  drop the capsule in it and while I sit here watching the poison dissolve; a smart ass  like you shows up and drinks the whole thing !"

The Sheriff  in a small town in Texas walks out in the street and sees a blond haired cowboy coming toward him with nothing on but his cowboy hat, his gun and his boots. He arrests him for indecent exposure.

As he is locking him up, he asks 'Why in the world are you walking around like this?'

The cowboy says, 'Well it's like this Sheriff ..
 
I was in this bar down the road and this pretty little red head asks me to go out to her motor home with her. So I did. 
We go inside and she pulls off her top and asks me to pull off my shirt... So I did.
Then she pulls off her skirt and asks me to pull off my pants.... So I did.
Then she pulls off her panties and asks me to pull off my shorts....so I did. 
Then she gets on the bed and looks at me kind of sexy and says,

'Now go to town cowboy.. '

'And here I am.'

Roll call for who's going to Eau Claire?

Pencil me in!

Highly Recomended for a pre-tailgate appetizer -

Cicione's for the best darn Philly Steak this side of Philadelphia!

Order the small beef Philly for a satisfying meal or the large if you really want to gorge yourself.  Add some fries and your favorite beverage and you'll be wiping hot grease off your chin long into the first quarter.  It's a must.

Cicione's is two blocks west from the entrance to Carson Park, very convenient.

BDB;  That's one hell of an agenda you've got for the 11th.

Developing....

I know that Wingman and I will be making the trip for sure so once the locale for the pre game is etablished we will be there!

retagent and his partner got steamrolled, 5 & 3, by a 15 handicap and his partner in a year-long Match Play Tourney. Said 15 handicapper was on his way to shooting a net 66 or thereabouts. To put it in perspective, a Touring Pro who is around a +4 would have had to shoot a 61 to beat someone like that. Freakin' sandbaggers. They are a bane to this world. I always thought golf was a game of integrity. &^##^*

Feel your pain on that one. Play in a little 9-hole match play league on Monday nights (two-man best ball). This happens to us all the time. Had a 28 handicap fire a 41 on us the final night. Washed away disappointment with beer.

Our league was forced to play with "League Match Handicap" only, as too many guys were posting FALSE SCORES on their USGA  handicaps on the weekends just to position themselves for a higher handicap for league play. That is pathetic!

Closed circuit to TDT, it looks as if my bad hip may keep me out of the play-off run. More physical thereapy tonight.

A study conducted by UCLA's Department of Psychiatry has revealed that the kind of face a woman finds attractive on a man can differ depending on where she is in her menstrual cycle.  For example: if she is ovulating, she is attracted to men  with rugged and masculine features.  However, if she is  menstruating or menopausal, she tends to be more attracted to a man with duct tape over his mouth and a spear lodged in his chest with a bat up his ass while he is on fire.

Dear MIAC board, (Prophet update)

I miss you guys. I moved to the D3less land of South Dakota because I found a nice lady and we got married and SD turned out to be the land of opportunity for us. However, not all people out here understand the value of a liberal arts education. Thanks to the wonderful internet, I can listen to, and occasionally watch a Johnnies game. I'm hoping to make it back for homecoming this year. The only game I brought my wife to had a severely underwhelming crowd, and she was unimpressed. Anyway, a hopefully undefeated St. John's vs. the overrated Cretins should draw a nice crowd.

Gotta run! Hope to see some of you at a game this year.

Go Johnnies!

A Ryan Hoag sighting earlier this week in the western suburbs of Minneapolis in his blue Audi TT cabriolet .

I thought TDT & Willy Wonka would like to know 

[Touchdown Tommy]

Oh Lordie, a post from Prophet (sure to incite his arch-rival Wildcat11) and a mention of Hoag in consecutive posts.  I sorta wish Hoag would re-take his position on the sidelines for Gustavus just so we could see his ridiculous antics.  Do you guys remember when he "helped" out GAC during the SJU game at Clemens Stadium a few years ago?  What a complete ass clown (and I think his GAC teammates would be the 1st to concur).  Just going ape sh!t nuts and it was something like 42-0 at the half...

105: Next time the MIAC PP will require photographic evidence...

Meeting of the minds is scheduled for Sunday night at Target Field.  Attending will be LBean aka Mr. Vacation, The Mayor Finsleft, Touchdown Tommy, and a TBD.  Shenanigans are sure to ensue and the world's problems are sure to be solved...

Veek: Have you cleared your calendar for this season?  I know from past history you tend to have some conflicts regarding your rigorous committments on the Arts & Crafts circuit of Central MN.  Please advise at your convienence.

Oh Lordie, a post from Prophet (sure to incite his arch-rival Wildcat11)

[like riding a bike] He moved to South Dakota because the restraining order Blake Elliott took out required Prophet to be at least one state away. [/like riding a bike]

Can't wait for this season to start!

Coincidentally, Prophet and Duff played football together through 9th or 10th grade

There is something worse than dealing with a call center based in India when having networking issues.

And that is being shoved back and forth between 3 different call centers based in India, none of them being able to solve my problem.

I have been on hold all day, or asking "excuse me, what did you say? What do you want me to do?" Almost impossible to understand sometimes.

I was about to go postal, until Tom, from the Cities, called me and fixed my problem in 5 minutes.
