Just saw some pictures of the removal come across Twitter. Duff is off the hook.

How did the Johnnies do on their trip up to Canada? I have fallen behind on the board &, if anything was shared on the gojohnnies.com website, I must've overlooked it. Hoping St John's can take down Whitewater to open the season!

I remember when the field used to be natural grass.

I played in the final game on grass ('01 playoffs vs. UW-Stevens Point).  Blake Elliot single-handedly won us that game and then went into hypothermia.

Now we are going on our third iteration of turf.

I hope they choose a better font for the endzones.  I did not care for the font they used on iteration #2.

Johnnies won 60-7, but I never saw any stats.

Yep. Agree.

I hope they go all in on Comic Sans

Go Johnnies!

Glad to see my increase in tailgate/parking & season tickets went for a worthy cause
As of now they're on DOUBLE SECRET Probation!

I'll lay 15/1 odds that SJU incorporates blue into the new field scheme in some way, shape, or form. Even if it is as miniscule as trim around a logo or something small.

Also taking bets at 250/1 that SJU goes for an all red turf look like Eastern Washington.

There should be a law or rule banning turf color from being anything but green.

Jerdy and the Vienna Vikings got another W yesterday. The announcer on the video is kind tough to listen to.

I wonder if they have a person doing play by play in German (they're in Vienna, right?) who is super into the game.

"Erdmann wirft in die Endzone, er hat da unten einen Mann. Touchdown-Wikinger!"

That would be exciting to hear: basically an Austrian version of VOJ, total unapologetic homer.

Would they call a blitz in German?

I think that would be Blitz.

Not bad stats for Jerdy:
24-30 for 285 yards and one TD.
Can't believe an NFL team wouldn't give him a chance as a backup.

I'm actually a little intrigued by how they do the kickoffs in the Euro FB league. Interesting concept to avoid the 40 yd sprint and collision, but still keep the potential for an exciting play as a part of the game.
