Atta baby Veek, Class of 2029.  Glad everyone is healthy and doing well.  Uncle TDT is quite proud.  You are quickly catching up to DustySJU...




How'd that Colonoscopy go ROR?  Better than a vasectomy I hope...

Then this afternoon a guy came in to have the wiring taken off of his jaw as his jaw has healed from bring broken in a bar fight 2 months ago. He was wearing..... a Bethel t-shirt!
I thought about asking him if a teammate did it, but he revealed that he didn't go to Bethel, his girlfriend did.

Not to rain on the MIAC day parade KR, but it might also have been the Bethel College in Tennessee or Bethel College in Indiana.



-on a side note--watching my cousins play for Wayzata tonight, and felt they were cheated by the game clock operator, and slow referees.  1:15 left 2nd and 15, Wayzata forces a fumble, nearly recovers and runs it back but Edina falls on it for a big loss- refs take half a minute to start the play clock, allowing Edina to run the clock down to 24 seconds and knell on it for fourth down.  This is after the clock guy waited ten seconds to stop the clock on the first down play from that same series.----

At 2:52 pm this afternoon I became a proud parent for the third time with my wife giving birth to our first son, Eric James.

Everyone is doing fine and yes, he is planning on going to SJU!

Congrats to Mrs. Veek and to you - and BTW, you own TDT!!

Cake eaters obviously rule.

Congrats Veeks. Are you going to name him Zeke? (Get it? Zeke Veek? I kill myself)

LAB, I can't remember the last time one of our jets was shot down. Vietnam, maybe? They do crash now and then.

[Retired Old Rat]

Then he probably lied about the bar fight. His girlfriend probably did it.

I'm concerned.   

That was my theory as well.

[Retired Old Rat]

Congrats Veek and Mrs. Veek.

May I assume you'll be handing out big fat stogies on the 27th?

[Retired Old Rat]

TDT,

In the end, everything worked out.   

[Lone Auggie Backer]

retagent - I intentionally mentioned aircraft as, as you quite accurately stated, jets rarely are shot down any more.  But, with our close air support, unfortunately, through enemy fire or mechanical issues, we've lost way too many soldiers to chopper crashes.  It saddens me with each loss of a soldiers life!

But, on a happy note - Veek - Congrats to you and your wife.  Congrats on the first son!  Must be quite proud, and quite tired at this point!

You assume I wouldn't have asked which Bethel it was... you underestimate me nearly as badly as you overestimate NWC and the rest of the schools in the NCCAA. His shirt had "Bethel.edu" on it. Click the link and let me know which one it is 8)


RE: Your cousin's
My high school coach always said if you're in a position for the refs to "cost you the game," you didn't deserve to win the game.
You can tell your cousin's they can play at NWC next year, their opponents are weaker teams than Wayzata's!

Congrats Mama and Papa Veek!!! Can't wait to watch Veek Jr Lead the Johnnies to the Stagg Bowl in 2032!

Way to go Veeks

Congrats Veek on child #3. As a father of 5, I can tell you.........stop!

Mighty Fine Veek!  Congratulations to you and Mrs. Veek!

SJU is a foregone conclusion.... the real question is will he go into tele-communications?  

Developing....

Congratulations Veek! I've got an October boy as well and it is a sweet thing.

Remember now, you are only 5 years away from starting youth hockey.

Congrats Veek!
No don't let Ritzy coach him in youth football, or you will find out they rank youth football team.
