Can Tommies and Johnnies at least unite over making fun of Wisconsin?

Hey, we are just hanging out over here eating cheese curds and drinking beer. Don't drag us into this! You mosquito lovers fight amongst yourselves and leave us out of it.

Don't forget the brats. When I lived in the Denver area we had a wurstmeister imported from Sheboygan. I miss his Brat Haus.

Injury news:

- WR Harrington (ankle) will play
- S Glomb (ankle) will play
- DL Hobby (shoulder) and CB Gutierrez (hamstring) didn't practice but might play
- RB Kai Barber (shoulder) is out for the year.  Damned shame.  Eligible for a redshirt.

I got this from the SCTimes website (Frank's blog) where it appears that I have been able to sign up for the $9.99 digital subscription by using my card and my parent's address.  We'll see if it rejects and the po-lice come knocking on my door.


Further: It appears that I can share my subscription with a friend, basically getting two subscriptions for the price of one.  All I need is your email address.  Friendships start at $9.99.

Barber is a tough loss.  Hobby and Gutierrez probably won't be 100%.

Erdmann and the d-line are the x-factors in this game.  If Jackson can find success throwing the ball the running game should follow.  D-line needs to hold their own and even break through a few times.  If they can get the job done our linebackers need to finish the job. 
Bottom line is the Johnnies needs to sustain drives and make stops on defense. 
Not expecting a win but wouldn't be surprised either.

I am not going out on a limb by saying this, but I anticipate this years battle to have more passing yards than we have seen in the last 4-5 matchups. The Johnnies have a new slinger, graduated Sura and are without Barber, and the Tommies secondary is "younger". On the UST side they have two QB's that are tall and can fire the ball and through a few games seem to be very strong pass blocking but are still chasing a bit as far as run blocking goes.

What a post when I think about it Custer is the only one that comes to mind that had a higher loss record than the Tommie's had against John's Johnnies.

Nah, classless would have been if we'd been talking all sorts of smack about Linfield in the NWC board during that game last week.

A Johnnie was on his way home from the Johnnie-Tommie game at Clemens Stadium when he had to screech to a halt and ended up in a massive traffic jam on I94.

He wound down the window and thought to himself, "This seems bad, nothing's moving at all." He noticed a police officer walking back and forth, in and out of all the cars, so the Johnnie shouts over: "Excuse me officer, what's going on?"

The officer replies, "A Tommie, so depressed about losing to St John's, feels a complete fool for saying St Thomas are the best team in DIII.  He's actually threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on fire."

The officer goes on: "His family find him arrogant and he hasn't got many friends. I'm just walking around taking up a collection for him."

The Johnnie asks, "How much have you collected so far?"

"So far," replies the officer, "We've collected about 25 gallons, but a lot of people are still siphoning!"

Don't you have a hype video to make for the CATDOME!? Or having trouble finding highlights from last week's drubbing? Big game versus Lewis and Clark, should be focused on that. You can whisper sweet nothings to SJU next week when you both have an L to cry to each other about.

Bench, are you loading up the wife and kid into the Lambo and making the long trek south to Collegeville?

How'd you know I call my Dodge Ram "Lambo"?

Not looking good. if I do make it I'll probably be rolling solo with a case of Hamm's Premo's, drinking by myself and peeing behind that grey building like an animal. Probs why I'm on edge. Sorry DesertCat1.

...drinking by myself and peeing behind that grey building like an animal.

Tailgate has moved.  That parking lot has been torn up to put in the new stable.

Well, I'm sure I'll pee on something if I show up.

I can point you towards an electric fence.

Now that rumor about the Johnnies' affinity for tube socks and strong wifi connections makes more sense. It's all to do with them having a little personal time while binge watching Linfield hype videos on Youtube. Let's hope they're not too exhausted to play come Saturday. Take it easy boys...be sure to break up those sessions with a few romantic, late night Skype calls to your special wildcat...
