FB: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[Johnnie Red]

Man, where do I start?!!! Touchdown Tommy, if you are going to be in town for the hated Bethel game on November 11, please consider coming down to Norwood Young America on Friday night, November 10 for the Johnnie Red re-election party at the pavilion on the Stiftungsfest grounds. Just ask your mother where it is located since she was at the Stiftungsfest this past August. Carver County Pork Producers will be grilling the best pork chops in the state. Dinner will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Hillbilly Cadillac will be playing from 8 to 11 p.m. Bluegrass music at its best.

Nice article about the naked prosecutor caught on camera. This did happen in Hamilton, Ohio, so he is probably a grad of MUC(k). Trust me, this will not be happening in Carver County anytime soon.

And now, Law and Order, Criminal Intent from Chaska; don't like it? Get bent.

An unusual music request...
A man in Fireman's Park called the police at approximately 2:30 a.m., requesting to go to jail. An officer arrived in the park to speak to him. The officer observed the man singing and playing his harmonica to a portable radio he had plugged into an electrical outlet. The man was visibly intoxicated, swaying side to side as he played the harmonica. As the officer approached, the man put down the harmonica and drank from a bottle of Vodka. He told the officer he wanted to go to jail because he was drunk and cold. A breath test indicated over a .20 AC. He was placed in a detox facility.

Never paid attention in health class...
A nineteen-year old male was caught shoplifting Ramen Noodles at Coopers County Market. He ran from the store when an employee confronted him. A short time later, the male came back to the store to speak with store employees and police. He told police he was the twin brother of the offender who committed the theft. He continued to state he was very angry at his twin brother and did not know where he ran to.

An officer asked him for his and his twin brother's date of birth. The male gave two different birth dates. When asked how twins could have different birth dates, the male explained he and his brother have "pretty much the same date of birth, but have different parents, but are identical twins." Not surprisingly, he had a difficult time convincing the officer he was telling the truth. The male also had trouble explaining why he was wearing the same clothes his brother wore when the theft occurred. A short time later, the male admitted he did not have a brother and attempted to mislead the police. He was intoxicated and a breath test indicated a .14 AC. False identification he used to purchase alcohol was found in his pocket. He was arrested and charged with providing false information to police, theft, minor consumption of alcohol and entering a licensed premise.

Beggers can't be choosers.  Will someone tell me how they manage to survive the cold/windy/snowy weather in baseball locales such as New York x 2, Boston, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago x 2, Pittsburgh?  I would argue all very similar climates to the MSP.

Wow Veek is outta hibernation.  2 posts in one week?  Slow down big fella.

oK Boston Ave. April High 56 low 40      Oct 62 46
     Philly                            65       42            67  46
     NYC                              60        44           65  50
     Mlps                             57        36            58   39

Look no further than the ave Low,  Yes they are simliar but the distinct chance of playing games when it is 20 degrees doesn't sound appealing

No matter what, Pearson and Brakke would be in shorts!!!   

In shorts without a doubt maybe you should try it to bring some W's to LF
I do believe that was started by Don Ryan Crow Wing co. Atty.  and GAC alum

They have been doing it for over 100 years. It was the candy a$$e$ in warm climates that started this dome crap.

I agree with you when it comes to Football.   Baseball the quality of the game is significantly diminished in frigid weather.

[Whoa Nelly]

We're gonna go to Auggie Tech, and then we're going to take Bethel, then to Carleton, Gustavus, Hamline, on to Collegeville, the cretins on Cretin, and St. Olaf...heeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

I swear that new "Cobber" reminded me of the Libby Foods water tower in Rochester.  Coming soon to the Jake, I'll bet!

Coming to you live from the Chaska Community Center. So nice to have the treadmill workout done for the day. Time to sit back with a cup of coffee and read some appellate decisions.

Speaking of appellate decisions, I was out in Hutchinson last night for an event where all seven of the Minnesota Supreme Court justices were present. One of the justices, Barry Anderson, is a Gustie grad. I asked him if he would be in Collegeville this Saturday when the Gusties come to town. He seemed somewhat puzzled by the question and then commented that he only went to two games while he was a student at Gustavus.

JR -- didn't you tell me that you never attended a football game while you were a student at St. John's....?? I could have sworn that was you..... Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought it was YEARS before you became the burger grillin', tailgate loving football fan that you are today.....

From the Chicago Tribune this morning:

It's not yet sunrise, and Daniel Shields is lingering over a $1.25 can of Hamm's beer and a hand-rolled cigarette.

The 64-year-old man begins his days, several mornings a week, at George's Tavern in Berwyn, a pub two years older than he is. He comes to beat loneliness, to roll his Drum tobacco, to grumble about politics.

Kr-is this going to be you in a few years??

Good Lord I hope not!
I don't smoke.

KR,

You have 500k because you are so entertaining.

Congrats on scoring the free food and wine.

I'd prefer to think that rather than the alternative that people mis-clicked that many times!

Careful, they spit when shaken!

All this Yankee talk and no Lidle talk. Sad news.

JR-
I told the editor and reporter to look out for you. Sorry, I was playing Co-Rec Power Volleyball last night at the rec center.

[The White Silly]

  speaking of Ortiz vs. Shamrock last night...has any one heard how Marcus Levesseur's Cage fighting career is going?...didn't he have a fight the other week?  anyone? anyone? bueller?

[retagent]

As long as it's sports question time, I assume someone in the room will have the 411 on this.

What's the deal with Kevin Gorg? Do his fraternity brothers break into his house every week, pants him and shave off half his eyebrows? It's DISTURBING!

One of the youngsters at my work is a participant in the local Twin Cities circuit of cage fighting. I asked him about Marcus. He said Marcus is ready to make the "next step" Marcus is about as big a drawing card in Minneapolis as the local scene has. He makes about $500.00 for a win. He may get a chance at UFC within the next year.

The co-worker I was speaking of had a "fight" last week, he trained for about 6 months, won by submission (he could hear the other guy's radius cracking) in 43 seconds,the guy tapped out before his arm was broken. He made $100.00 for the win- I don't get it

[FPM]

I had a friend in chiro school that was fighting and did pretty well but he decided to retire after graduation I guess he felt patients may be scared to see a chiropractor that always had black eyes and such.

I didn't catch the Ortiz fight I assume he beat that cry baby Shamrock yet again.

OAS,

Just wanted to tell you you're doing a great job with "Around the West" and I thought this week's column was particularly informative. It was nice to get a rundown on all of the West Regions conferences. I know it's a lot of work covering five conferences but you find a way to get it done. You've done an awesome job the last few seasons.
