   Football and fotball...Much, much rather watch football, but Sat. Nov. 6th  was in MN to watch fotball. Grandson, Sam Hoyt, Sr. Mounds View; MN. Mr. Soccer finalist, scored 2 of Mounds 3 goals in beating Rosemont (3-2) for the 3AAA state title. Made 4 of Mounds 5 goals in the three state matches.  Finished a perfect day watching BU take on Augsburg.
   I am hoping Sam takes his foot to BU, however have noticed that often BU's soccer matches are scheduled for Saturdays 1pm. Would have to watch BU football on my phone from the soccer field. All in all, that would be ok, don't you think?

   D O.C.  Appreciate the comment.  "let's meet for fika someday."  ;)

D3Football appears to have doubts about / unsure what to do with SJU.
- Picked BU to win MIAC championship (close)
- Bracket capsule says SJU will go as far as they outscore opponents. Either that's a clever quip based on the recent last second win or another example of the most cliched 'guide to winning' phrase ever used. Compare it to other 1 seeds, or even some of the 2 and 3 seeds.
- Logan has SJU with the 6th (barely) best championship odds: https://twitter.com/loghanratings/status/1461410923160215553?s=21.

Logan's first round spreads for anyone interested: https://twitter.com/loghanratings/status/1461358432691187716?s=21

You obviously don't realize the bracket capsules are typically written by an alum/follower of the school they are about and not by the D3 staff. They simply assemble all the info and post it. But you wouldn't have to be so paranoid if everyone wasn't out to get you.

I didn't realize that, but I suppose it fits the optimism of Minnesota sports.

I can't wait till OzJohnnie discovers a distant connection with a Lake Forest fan.  I guess Lake Forest would need some fans for that to happen, though.  ???

Randolph and Mortimer concur.

I'm always the life of the party as you can imagine. If Wheaton makes it to Collegeville, maybe I'll have you guys over to my tailgate.  ;D

The first thing I thought of when I read that line in the capsule:
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright.

At the rec center this morning I ran onto a fellow who has a son that is a Forester alum. I mentioned the upcoming football game. It was a brief conversation.  :D

Ice Bear says 5 of the 6 pickers see Central winning. Ice is really looking forward to this ****ing game. Any word on Roste? Playing? Playing hurt? Inquisitive Ice...

Hardly a peep on the board even though the question has been asked multiple times. Bethel discusses Roste's accomplishments in its game preview, so based on that alone, I would assume he is playing. It's not much for evidence, but I guess it's about all we have to go on at this point.
