Speaking of the UST depth at RB

Great article!...My son who plays UST reflects the same feeling about the program, its nice to see that these kids, especially D1 transfers, realize the strength of the locker room culture of team and program. The team really looks out for team, even the guys on the 3rd scout team love their roll, and understand they are making the team better because they can see what they can contribute to the other players and the other players respect them for it.  Remember this is d3 football and most kids at this level play football because the really love the game.
Per the Rev's recent post I thought we were to expect less folksiness here.

Oz,
I learned years ago that any post over 5 lines long is just blather and not worth reading. I haven't read one since, haven't missed anything worthwhile and had hundreds of hours of time for more meaningful things.
Absolute truth.  :P

This is why I tweet.

I'm 1-3 in my Fantasy Football League so I changed my team name from Somewhere Over Dwayne Bowe to VLAD The IMPALER.

What I really need though is a healthy running back.  :P

This is from a brief interview with Johnnies TE Tommy Auger.  I'm not sure exactly why, but I find it funny.  ;D

QuoteQ: You were also a year behind Jeff Fasching (the current Minnesota Gophers baseball pitcher and son of Johnnies head coach Gary Fasching) at Cathedral. You guys played together a lot in different sports. Did you learn anything about Gary through seeing him as a parent in those settings that some of your other teammates might not know?

A: ...But one thing I'd know that others wouldn't is that he made some really good cookies at Jeff's graduation party.  They were chocolate chip. And they were pretty tasty.

A tradition unrivaled...

Rev, what are you Googling in order to find that?

I'm picking up a UST-related gift for a friend and decided to check Amazon. I searched "University of St. Thomas" and it was one of the items that popped up. I wonder how much it would cost to launder through the UST laundry butler service.

Might be tough for some USTers to match the existing purple in the tramp stamp.
