Excellent news, Chris, and thanks for the heads-up.  I've been watching for updates on this since it was brought up!

From the article:
QuoteThe Johnnies have played Northwestern College of Roseville of the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference the past two seasons. But Northwestern did not want to continue with the series, forcing St. John's to search for other options.

AO (we know you're out there), if NW can play with the Johnnies, then why don't they want to continue the series? :P

MIAC brethern and all other Upper Midwesternernerners.... Gro's late teenage diet in upstate NY included heavy doses of Milwaukee's Best Ice -- $4.88/12pk as I remember -- In fact the first beer ever served to young Gro at RPI was a MBI.

Since you guys are "up there" where MB is from, what's your opinion of the beer? Gro knows it served one purpose of reaching FUBAR status in as little time as possible.

As my friend's mom once said "Whoever makes that blue and black can you guys keep them in business!"

Milwaukee's Best is that in name only.

It's bottom shelf swill mainly consumed by the +60 bowling alley bunch where cheaper means better.

It's surely sub-Hamm's.

Every other beer needs hot chicks to sell their brand.

Hamm's is so good they only use a cartoon bear.

The 2006 Johnnie schedule is an outrage!   :o

The Jays have to play AT Concordia and AT St. Thomas again!!! It must be a Johnnie fixing the MIAC schedule  ::)

Or, more likely, until MAC returns, the schedule is unbalanced from year to year and needs to compensate this way.

Come back Scots!

That's really what I was asking... having been to Milwaukee before it was odd I didn't see any MB. Nice town though.

Milwaukee's best is to Milwaukee like Foster's is to Australia. They both claim to represent the region, but no one from that region really drinks them.
Now accepting new patients. All bills must be paid in scotch shortly after any services rendered.  Sorry TDT, no problems below the waist.


Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.

Where is everyone?

In mourning, for the loss of Hamm's 30-packs?

Does Fins have actual work to do?
Well yes I do. Just happened to catch you talking about me after taking my allotted break from the 1st 6 hours of my work day.
Sure wish I was still a student.

Actually had a "first" yesterday in my long, storied and illustrious legal career. I'm in court, representing a major vehicle financing company on a replevin action. Basically, we're asking the court to allow us to take the deadbeat's vehicle back that he long ago stopped paying on. Usually, people don't show up and we just get the order. They know the truck's gone and they're just hanging on.
So this dude does show up with a chip on his shoulder the size of a terdy pack, if you know what I mean. Well the judge barely gets a sentence out and the dude starts berating the judge like "what kind of court is this?" and "oh, I lose my truck unless I come up with $30 thousand. It's all about the rich guys." Well shortly into this, the judge looks at me and says he'll sign my Order, then the guy really pops off, "You call yourself a judge?" and other such comments. Judge tells him the hearing is adjourned and he can leave which he refuses to do. Then the bailiff tells him he needs to leave. Still sits there. Then the judge gives him one minute to leave. Tick, tick, tick...BANG goes the gavel. 30 days in jail for contempt. Dude gets his hands cuffed behind his back and hauled out the back of the courtroom. He's yelling at the judge demanding to be taken out the front door so people can see what a joke this is.  The judge then thanked me for getting his week started out in such a fashion.

Awesome Movie Gro

RB George Rogers, about the upcoming season:
"I want to rush for 1,000 or 1,500 yards, whichever comes first."

Not true...Milwaukee's Best is a staple in Milwaukee and the rest of Wisconsin.  Probably one of the most heavily consumed beverages on most campuses (only because of the cost- makes a great house party choice)!
