A Tommie and a Johnnie went to the bar after work for a drink and sat on stools watching the 6 o'clock news.  A man was shown threatening to jump from a bridge, and the Tommie bet the Johnnie $50 that he wouldn't jump.

He did jump though, so the Tommie offered the Johnnie $50. The Johnnie said, "I can't take this, you're my friend."

But the Tommie insisted saying, "No. A bet's a bet."

Then the Johnnie said, "Listen, I feel bad and have to own up and tell you that I saw this on the 5 o'clock news, so I can't take your money."

The Tommie replied, "Well, so did I, but I didn't think he'd jump again.

Three Tommie Co-Eds walk into a building.....

You'd think at least one of them would've seen it.

An old favourite.  It's been a few years:



Newly minted Tommie was starting his first day teaching the youngsters at the local Summit Ave elementary school.  He was very excited and asked all the students to put their hands up if they supported UST.  All but one boy put a hand up.  So he asked the boy which team he supported.

"The Johnnies," said the boy proudly.

Incredulously, the Tommie asks, "What? Why?"

"Because all my family go for the Johnnies."

"You don't have to do something just because your parents do," the Tommie said.  "What if your mom was a prostitute, your dad was an alcoholic, and your brother was a drug addict?"

"Then I would go for the Tommies," replied the boy.

Serious q: Why the obsession with referring to women who attend college as coeds?

I know that St John's is a little slow on the uptake and that having men and women attend the same college is a bit of a novelty for y'all still, but that term went out of favor a long long time ago. I'm no PC police, but it's general connotation is derogatory and I think it's time to update your lexicon.

"Lexicon?  Isn't that a town in Kentucky?" the coed asked.

"Lexicon?  Isn't that a town in Kentucky?" the coed asked. 

"Make it 1990 when we could dominate the league again, through science or magic" the Johnnie asked

All joking aside, this is great news for the fine people of Stearns County and a real boon for SJ2's recruiting. Congrats!

Damn, you guys are great. I mean Johnnies and Tommies both. I'm having a good time reading your posts this week. Wish Mount had a rivalry like this. Best to both teams. ☠🏈

Just wait and see what happens if the meet in the playoffs this year! It would make a Mount Union-John Carroll rematch look like a church social by comparison! 

Are you sure you're Catholic bluestreak? Because the Tommie-Johnnie rivalry banter is JUST like a church social in my experience. You must have some really tame church socials in your part of the country.

Haha! Admittedly, I've never been to a church social. I go to mass every week, but church socials seem to old for me! I picture a bunch of old people standing around eating free food (probably the only reason their there in the first place)

Two notes:
1. Casey Vilandre is Lindsay Whalen's grandpa.
2. St. John's beat Hamline 27-0.

So....I guess the Johnnies will prove me wrong this week and win 27-0.

Fury...When are you moving back to MN? There's zero chance anyone in NYC cares about that 1st nugget. Which is great BTW and something I didn't know.

How do you drown a Tommie Co-Ed?

Put a scratch and sniff sticker at the bottom of the pool.

Connecticut Sun fans I bump into might appreciate a good Lindsay Whalen nugget.

Joke redacted. My apologies as I inadvertently shared a joke which was in poor taste, due to a situation in the 1980s that I was unaware of. No tasteless ill-will was intended.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity

Careful, my friend. I myself am old. I sometimes stand around with other old people eating free food.
OK! I just made that up. Or did I? Go Old People! ☠🏈❗️

Why stand?  Someone is passing out free food but they won't give you a chair to sit upon?
