KR - +k for a worthy seanachaí. 

tmert, seanachai'. 

I can barely type it let alone pronounce it or know what the heck it means. 

I am with you though on KR's post. Top notch and +k.

Hey KR. Nice seanachai' !        I think. 

I'll second or third what they said! Great post KR, I  look forward to your posts!

Tmert, If I stick around you long enough I might be able to expand my vocabulary, +k as well!

Thanks fellas!
It was a great experience!

The best quote about losing to Ackerman I got came from one of my roommates and groomsmen, "He had it easy, he wrestles guys with legs all the time, when was the last time you wrestled a guy without 'em?"

KR, Nick Slack's dad, Kevin, wrestled for our adult team at NYA in the early `80's when we beat Albert Lea for the state championship. That was a match.

If Kevin was anything like his son when on the mat, best of luck to anyone who went up against him!

The LAX men's squad is projected top 4 in the WIAC I believe.

As KR would say, is that like being the tallest midget in the circus?

Actually, I usually say it's a lot like being the prettiest girl in the trailer park

Eventually, we all become mutts. My paternal grandfather was 100% Irish, but I'm 25%. (Something about those German/Slovenian women around here.) Ex-wife is 50%, so my kids are more Irish than I am.

PapaKR is 100% german.
MamaKR is 100% European mutt, parts of at least a dozen different countries. This is why I'm convinced all Trans-country discussions/agreements in Europe before 1900 were directly due to the international slutting around of my ancestors.

Being a hoops guy, wrestling's usually as interesting to me as danceline (which is a sport, countless danceline parents have reminded me over the years. I apologize, Johnnie Red, if you're handing out medals at the state dance team competition this  year).

But the most exciting event I've covered was a wrestling match, one where the team score ended up like 66-0. It was Jackson County Central's Nate Baker against Worthington's Bryan Cowdin, two absolute studs at 160 who were both multiple state champs in their classes. The place was packed for that single match, since the team portion was a slaughter. Baker beat him in the final five seconds with a takedown to win by a point. It really was thrilling. Baker, who went to the U originally, is still wrestling I believe at MSUM, he's probably about 25 now.

So he's almost old enough to start wrestling at Augsburg

OOOOHHHH, juicy story JR. Invite her up for the next game.

BDB:

Enjoy the gift...I sensed it will come in a distant #3 in rankings to the last few Christmas gifts...at least I can prove I played in one game!

Nonsense, SamWill! I love it. 

SamWill gave me this huge picture of the natural bowl during a game in which he played from 1994 vs the Gusties. Beautiful picture with the title "COLLEGEVILLE" on it.

Ole #47 up on the D-line no less! Get back! Your a linebacker. 

For some reason I was convinced I was going to get some Johnnie gear so I would have something to wear to Stiftungfestivities next time. (hint) 

Thanks SamWill, the picture is going up on my office wall.

Pretty soon, I'll have more SJU stuff in here than BlueDevil stuff.      8)

It is not too late for me to get you that gear yet this year..my in-laws live 5 minutes from Collegeville!

SJU base defense in 1994 was 5-2...which would walk me up to line...pass rush, pass coverage...shift to 4-3 which I become Will Linebacker....I was in position in that photo!

Merry Christmas to all posters!

Good luck to Whitewater this weekend!  Send your coach out with a Championship!

Yeah and I had been done playing for UWW for 2 years already

[DuffMan]

1994, I remember it well.  I was in 8th grade.  Sartell won state that year.  Kubiak was probaly sporting a sweet mullet, too.

[Willy Wonka]

Heard a story today about a friend of mine (female, if you can't believe that) getting drunk up north with some Johnnies. She's a sports nut and ended up spouting off to some random dude at the bar about how bad SJU's second receiver was this year.

Turns out she was talking TO Casey Haugen.

Oops!!

Flush the Johnnies Says:

Capital, Baldwin-Wallace, Marietta, Ohio Northern, John Carroll, Otterbein, Wilmington, Muskingum, and Heidelberg take note Saturday on how to do it. You guys have only done it once in ten years I believe. Watch and learn how to do it. Rocky Pentello watch J Jacobs Saturday . How he handles pressure and carves up the secondary. I cant wait. Everyone will have to eat crow and say i was right Saturday night!!!! 

This guy makes TDT look like the angel he is!   

Ric comes to Johnnies defense... more football related content for the fishman called "Fins"!

Any coward can run his mouth. Just shows what a jerk is. It's sad flush the johnnies can even post here with a name like that. I'm sure at the game he's always one of those guys spending more time yelling at the other team than cheering on his own. And if Whitewater wins he'll be gloating like a bigger jerk as if spouting off at the mouth actually means anything, and if Mount Union wins he will wither away into another stupid name. Reminds me of a lot of the Trinity posters in 2002. Too bad really, no place for it here, especially for what looks like the makings of a great game on Saturday.

Friday Fun: This just came in over the transom (pay attention here, Bennie  ) ...

EXPLANATION OF MARKETING

People often ask for a simple explanation of "Marketing. " Well, here it is:

You're a woman and you see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and say, "I'm fantastic in bed."

• That's Direct Marketing.

You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy. One of your friends goes up to him and pointing at you says, "She's fantastic in bed."

• That's Advertising.

You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed."

• That's Telemarketing.

You see a guy at a party, you straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say, "May I?" and reach up to straighten his tie, brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed."

• That's Public Relations.

You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He walks up to you and says, "I hear you're fantastic in bed."

• That's Brand Recognition.

You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He fancies you, but you talk him into going home with your friend.

• That's a Sales Rep.

Your friend can't satisfy him so he calls you.

• That's Tech Support.

You're on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you're passing. So you climb onto the roof of one situated towards the center and shout at the top of your lungs, "I'm fantastic in bed!"

• That's Junk Mail.

You are at a party, this well-built man walks up to you and grabs your butt.

• That's the Governor of California.

Special Good Morning to all my loyal membership of the CAC:

I am especially giddy today as it is the 1st Night of Hanukkah.  The beginning of 8 happy days and nights...

Veek: You are wise beyond your years.  Key West is in fact a legendary destination.  From the crazies, the flamboyantly queers, and Duval Street it has a little something for everyone.  TDT was there for New Years Eve a couple of years ago.  Well let me just say that they know how to party in Key West.  I started the evening over at "Mallory Square" where they have all the street musicians/crazy acts near the water.  It was fun, but the highlight was definitely the vuluptuous blonde bombshell on the Cigarette boat anchored just off shore who decided to take her top off and shake THE largest cans I have ever seen in person.  I mean i am not exaggerating fellas, she had to be Porn star material.  It was a terrific view. 

Then the night progressed with the obligatory trip to see my buddy Jimmy B at Margaritaville and then the party starts in the middle of Duval St.  The balconies become filled with scantily clad women and they sell beer on the sidewalk (no sense in concealing it, everyone has an adult bevy in hand in full view of the KW po-po).  The po-po sets up "Lifeguard Chairs" near Sloppy Joe's so they can better keep an eye on the crowd.  Pretty soon the beads start coming out and mayhem ensues.  Needless to say TDT has extremely fond memories of Key West.  A must for everyone at least once in their lifetime.

TDT- I thought you were Lutheran....or is it "Jewtheran", which Fins would call another variation of a mutt

Coincident?  I think not.

Saw this on deadspin, but it's a South Dakota story. For you wrestlers out there. The story is, uh, a high school wrestler faces many counts of rape for a wrestling move called "skinning." Wrestlers, comments? KR, ROR?

No comment.

KR, what is the medical term for this?
