No wrath here. Man ... I must have a really cranky reputation, probably deserved from dealings with SJU football posters.

Good to see Pat's making progress with the recovery program. Good luck. I forgive you.

Nothing like having a stalker.

Well, obviously, I have my own problems and my own recovery program (Stalkers Anonymous).
But it's kinda your fault since you put together such a good site that I stumbled onto your post from a link on the contents page. And I'm not being nice just because Christmas is 3 days away and I know Santa might be watching. I really mean it.

We're not really that bad, are we?

CCKnight, while I have driven by Rasset's Bar many times on my way up to Collegeville, I have never gone into it. Tomorrow night could be a first. The DJ is Chopper, who is pretty well known in this area and is from Waverly.

BockFest is Saturday, February 25 in New Ulm. Go to the Schellsbrewery.com website and look for events. Great pictures from the 2005 fest. Finslet, you should consider bringing a crew down from St. Cloud in the RV.

Merry Christmas to everyone. OAS, Dusty and Luke Balash (from North Pole, Alaska), thanks for the Christmas greetings. I want to thank everyone who has helped make the Stiftungsfestivities such a success. This season was phenomenal. The friendships are wonderful and much appreciated, even if you are from Bethel!

The First Amendment protects people from being pissed by your saying that Chris, as it protects me by saying SJU sucks

Anyway, Merry Christmas to everyone! That includes TDT, who will soon be sending me a check for 150-200 dollars. Hey, sometimes some holiday cheer costs a little extra

HScoach · December 22, 2005, 06:31:04 PM

chris: Great post!

So who does my son get to meet in the Amsterdam airport yesterday on his way back from Prague? Larry Bird. Turns out they are on the same flight. He gets his picture taken with Larry. This has to be comparable to AO having the privilege of meeting TDT at the Orlando airport.

Johnnie Red:
I'm just trying to figure out what about this you think I'd be interested in...?

Eating brats and drinking beer outside on a Saturday morning? Sure doesn't sound like my idea of fun

Johnnie Red · December 23, 2005, 03:46:28 PM

Fins, I know they won't be serving Hamm's.

However, Schell's does brew Grain Belt or, as it was called when I was attending SJU, Brain Melt. Frankrickard can probably relate to the latter given his experiences in downtown St. Cloud.

Schell's beer is not too bad. You would enjoy a caramelized bock. Drink enough and I am sure you karma would go up on this board.

We could also continue the ecumenical approach to the wonders of D3 football and invite the Martin Luther College players who are at least 21 to the event, since we all know they will be a D3 power in a few years once they are admitted to the NCAA.

I'm actually enjoying a couple of brain melt's right now before I head off to work for Miller at MC's Dugout. It's pretty good stuff. I do advise all to stay away from Schell's Snowstorm brew. I've never met a good one.

Frank, Fins, and Mongo -

I tried to make it down to join you for the Stagg Bowl but things didn't work out.

How long until the DIII football season starts? I wish it was only 8 days and not 8 months!

Merry Christmas to all my DIII friends and to all DIII football supporters!

Thanks for a great site, Pat.

Touchdown Tommy · December 24, 2005, 10:16:39 AM

Veek,

Quit panhandling for Karma.

Merry Christmas and Hap Happy New Year to all the faithful readers of the Bus even my arch nemesis, OAS

Lest anyone think I'm a Hamm's snob, I've enjoyed a Schell's bock or ten on occasion. It is a fine brew. And if what you say is true about karma, then why is my karma not in the triple figures by now?
Veek-sorry you weren't able to make it to the big city to watch the game.
Just getting ready to go over the river and through the woods for the Fins family Christmas gathering. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night (and a Hamm's(or a Schell's))
