FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Touchdown Tommy]

Good evening fellas.  Ready for kickoff.

Has anyone seen Veek?  I'm hearing he has multiple September conflicts...

Headed to Chicago in the morning.  Hope to see my pal Ferris B. in the bleachers...

Thinking about a trip to see my pal BlueDevilBob on Thursday night.  What kinda tailgating shenanigans can I expect in Menomonie?  I'm good for cheering intently against the hated Bethel Royals.

Faunch:  What are you smoking on?  I got a Big Green Egg this summer and it's better than sex (jokes here fellas).  Maybe we should have a competition.  Brisket, ribs, pork shoulder, chickens...

Hey Benchwarmer:  it'd break my heart to see you guys lose to the WIAC.  Please win.  The pain and agony on Caruso's face about 4pm September 26th is all worth it. 

Thanks much,

The Management

I wonder, will SJU's luck with the "Stretch Internet" broadcast will be any better this year?  It can't get much worse.

I agree. Last year I couldn't get VOJ on the radio (through computer or iPad) so a lot of the time this board was where I kept up to date. Sometimes Stretch was OK but sometimes reading the score in the Sunday paper was better. Thank the Lord and Pat for this board.

What's the radio station on TuneIn?  I need to save it in my preferences.

I had forgotten about how terrible it was last year until you mentioned that.  Always worked very well in prior seasons, so hopefully they're ready for this year.  Hopefully BU will be taking care of business in Stout so that I can pay some attention to the Gopher's game, which is hopefully competitive.

Your are cordially invited as always TDT to sit with me in my reserved seats on the 50. I'll throw in a burger and a beer or 3 at the Stout Ale House before the game to boot. Just let me know.

I think it was Pat who last year mentioned that Stretch was working on some things that they hoped would improve their product.  Personally my experience with Stretch has not been good.  Generally their streams are buffering so often and long that I just give up.

A WSM...the Big Green Egg is for show.  I can do 4 pork shoulders on it or 3 briskets, or up to 10 rack of ribs.  Pork and brisket can be done overnight.  If I bring pulled pork on Saturday I will do an overnight cook....probably start the smoker around 9 or 10 pm on Friday and cook it through the night using the Minion Method.  http://virtualweberbullet.com/fireup2.html 
Around 7 or 8 am Saturday pork will get packed in foil and place in cooler of the trip up.

Looking forward to the season!...Yes I will be up at Clemens Stadium when the Johnnies lose to UST .  I just don't think SJU can win 3 in a row!  If they do I will buy you guys a case of PBR...!

Although SJU has won three in a row 25 times in the last 55 years.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Last year various posters (Bennie was one) gave me links to download links to radio stations but my several devices wouldn't allow it.

Thanks, 57. I was referring to the TuneIn Radio app for the iPhone.  Both KOWZ and WDGY broadcast on TuneIn and carry Johnnie Football. Hopefully I can listen to games while warm in bed rather than sitting at the desk In the cold and dark watching Stretch. I found Stretch on the iPad insanely unreliable last year.

Last season Stretch was insanely unreliable on ANY platform!  Hopefully they have now gotten it together.
