Thanks Bennie:
So it appears that the Florwegians will continue to flock to St. Olaf as they are an under represented portion of the studuent population. In return we send TDT to Florida as they need to experience cultural diversity in the form of the President of the Cla$$le$$- A$$hole Club of America

It doesn't really seem like a fair trade does it?!!

congrats to St Johns on a big win.

Gotta love the excuses-yep the refs want SJU to win-that make sense only if the MIAC dislikes the Oles coaches, um possible? However, I am going to keep that excuse handy in case SJU does lose an MIAC game this year-the refs had it in for SJU.

[Kilted Rat]

Sorry JR, I'll be in Des Moines again this weekend. I do enjoy being burger transporter though especially when it's a National Championship game I'm taking them too! *


*Ole and Bethel fans; the National Championship Game ("Stagg Bowl" in some circles) is the game at the end of the year that you can only get to by making the playoffs (Oles) and winning games in the playoffs (Bethel).

The morbidly obese "gentleman" in the wheelchair was quite fun to watch.  On the int for the TD that was called back, he actually got out of his chair to cheer!

You'd be amazed how many morbidly obese people come into a Doctor's office daily asking for handicap permits or a prescription for a motorized wheelchair (prescription gets it covered by insurance).

One doc I followed had 3 people come in asking for handicap permits/ wheelchair prescriptions in the same afternoon. His answer had several parts and was nearly the exact same each time. Here was his response:

1.  Why on earth would I want to give someone as overweight as yourself a way to walk any less than you do now?

2.  Laziness is a contagious and hereditary disease but it is not a handicap.

3.  If it were possible, I would give you a permit that would require you to park as far as humanly possible from the entrance so that you could get some exercise.



Pretty impressive argument, a few people tried to argue that their weight was not their fault. The doc would offer to give them a pedometer and a diet log to record everything they ate, amazing how much their opinions changed. He even offered to have one lady come with him on his nightly 3 mile runs, surprisingly she turned him down


Here's a partial list of conditions/diseases that morbid obesity puts you at increased risk for:
Hypertension (High Blood pressure), Hyperlipidemia (High cholesterol), Type II Diabetes, Coronary artery disease, Heart attack, Deep venous Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism, Depression, stroke, congestive heart failure, sleep apnea, arthritis, gastric cancer, colon cancer, compression fractures, etc. The list goes on and on.






Amazing how the tide turns:

Last week, we have Ole fans crawling all over the board like maggots on a rotting carcass clamoring for SJU's excuses following the Ole's dominant performance, asking us what our excuse would be this year.

This week we have Oles offering multiple bogus excuses for their team.


Getting jobbed by ref's in a home game? Laughable at best.

Blaming the refs is even more of a BS excuse than blaming the weather. You can't be mad at the refs when your own players can't stop themselves from cheap-shotting after the whistle and earning multiple personal fouls throughout the game. Sounds like you should be blaming your coaching staff for the team's lack of discippline before you start whining about the refs!

Your boys lost by 16 and they needed to score 14 unanswered in the last 8 minutes of the game to even get that close!


Face it, St Olaf once again is nowhere near as good as you and the rest of the Ole fans think they are. They got dominated by the better team and they will probably lose at least one more conference game to either Bethel, Concordia, or Carleton.


Olaf is still a long way from being able to compete with SJU on a year-in year-out basis.  To get to that level, Olaf needs to improve many things, most notably in the coaching department.

Well posts like those are why Kilted Rat is the Chief Operating Officer of the Classless Asshole Club.  The point in the asterisk was especially poignant.


RE: Over/Under on # of Oles to crawl back to Post Patterns

So far we have one, though I saw Wahoo3 lurking...

[DuffMan]

DuffMan,
You got OleGrouch - you were there.

I'm not even going to comment on the reffing, aside from the fact that I have never heard a compliment from the losing team, and I never expect to.

One thing I do like about playing at Olaf is that they have the head ref miked.  It's kind of nice.

[DuffMan]

JR, let me know if you don't find another transporter.  I can probably get it up there.

How do you code in Chuck Norris on a bubble sheet?

[ritz72]

Interesting fact:

I know you guys love it when I talk up my boy, Porta, but FYI he needs only 210 more yds to pass Jake Barkley as the league's all-time leading rusher!!!

Mighty Royal

And he did it in only 7 years!!!!!!

Thoughts about yesterday's game of CC and HU:

CC came out strong on offense and defense.  It must have been Hamline's Homecoming because they didn't play all that bad.  Just some great plays by CC when HU was moving the ball. 

The offense was pretty good for CC, some key dropped passes by receivers to get a chance for 1st downs and a couple of fumbled snaps, along with some balls thrown a little low to receivers/backs.   Other than that CC moved the ball well.  I don't know if CC will do the QB shuffle vs. STO this week.  When I find out the board will know.

The defense played very well, the d-line was in the backfield most of the day and HU qb had to be sore this morning.  He took a lot of hits yesterday.  I think HU had -3 yds rushing and 146 yds of total offense. 

Great Win Cobbs, BEAT THE OLES!

[cobbernation]

Johnnie Faithful--

Anyone or thing to look from STO off/def for this weekend?

I see from the previous 13 pgs of notes that STO was a little chippy during the game yesterday!

I also like how STO fans think the refs cost them the game!  Maybe they did!  haha!

Check this out Ole fans:  Excuses are like A**Holes, everybody has one!

[Ole Eagle]

SJU Fans,

Tough loss for the Oles yesterday, but the guys played hard and not cheap. You won't hear any excuses here, just looked like somewhat of a repeat last year as the coaching staff was unable to adjust to SJUs passing scheme. Looking forward to this weeks game with Concordia. Congrats on the win

[sjusection105]

Cobbernation:

The TE delay,down the seam on the right side with slot rec. on the left seemed to work for 2 TD of over 40 yds.

Oh yea, screen passes to slow down the over pursing DEs  doesn't hurt either

[Ole Eagle]

and Cobbernation, way to show off that Concordia education, very classy
