You know they just show up as blank boxes for those of us on computers, though, yes?

They show up on my PC (w/ Firefox).  Not quite as fancy as on the phone, but they show up.

They show up on my mac, using Safari, as well. Maybe it's your Netscape browser that's the issue Pat

Blank boxes on my iMac but they show up on my iPad, both using Safari 

[Pat Coleman]

Interesting. I use Chrome. Well, someday, I suppose.

On my Fedora Linux box with Firefox they are white boxes with letters and numbers inside of them.

D3football.com Team of the Week
OL Bubba Friedlund, Joshua Perkins, Ben Bjork, Dillon Crum, Stein Johnson, Bethel
"Bethel's offensive line was crucial in the Royals' 35-24 victory over No. 22-ranked St. Thomas. Bethel composed a 17-play drive that lasted the final 7:38, resulting in a 25-yard touchdown and no extra time for the UST offense to touch the ball. In that drive, Bethel amassed 83 yards via 13 rushes and four passes."

MIAC Defensive POTW - Ben Wahlquist
"The Bethel football team hung on for one of its biggest wins of the season Saturday as it handed St. Thomas a 35-24 loss in a Top 20 showdown in Arden Hills. Royals' senior safety Ben Wahlquist (Eden Prairie, Minn.) led the team's defensive effort in the crucial win, as his diving interception changed the momentum of the game and set up the eventual game-winning score. For his performance, the MIAC sports information directors honored Wahlquist Monday with the MIAC Football Defensive Player-of-the-Week award.

"Wahlquist made six tackles from his safety position in Saturday's win over the Tommies - two solo and four assists - but it was his fourth-quarter interception that made the biggest impact on the win. His diving pick marked the first time Bethel stopped the UST offense in the second half, and the Royals scored the eventual game-winning touchdown on a 38-yard run on the very next play. This season, Wahlquist has 30 tackles (12 solo) with 0.5 sacks, a fumble recovery, and Saturday's big interception."

Why in god's name would you bet on the Bears after Marshall's rant from the game before? I live in Illinois and observed the disfunction that is the Bears.

No excuse over thought the game! I thought this was a must win game...the Bears should have been able to run against the pats D...didn't think Cutler and the Bears defense would fall apart I got 8 1/2 points. Just plain stupid bet😢😂😭

Maybe it's good you didn't win your bet, in your bet-winning celebration, you might have torn your acl.

First day back at work.  Sucks.

Ha! Got to happen Oz. But I bet your co-workers missed you and are happy you are back. 

[hazzben]

Come one, come all!

Looks like we're the last region to get one of these started up. So, I'll be happy to organize one if we can get at least 10 reliable voters. We can use D3football.com's West Region team list as eligible teams to consider. I'm hoping to get two or three people from each conference to participate, if possible. With no more than one representative/fan from each school.....just to have a fair and unbiased poll as possible. Since we're halfway through this season already, I will probably won't start until the 2015 season.

This could be fun, considering (as we all know) the West is where the power conferences in DIII reside   

So if you're fan of a West region team (MIAC, WIAC, MWC, IIAC, SCIAC, UMAC, or NWC) and interested in doing this next year, you can send me a message or sign up here:

1. 02 Warhawk (UWW - WIAC)
2. Hazzben (Bethel - MIAC)
3. MasterJedi (UWW - WIAC)

Head over the West Region Fan Poll thread and sign up if you're interested. Just not too many Johnnies, I don't want this to become a smokiest
