[Mr. Ypsi]

That has to be the first time ever that someone has blogged about a trip to Minneapolis and entitled the blog post "The Replacements" without mentioning Paul Westerberg.

I was born in 1986.

OMG!   I turned 38 in 1986.

Hey, you whippersnapper, get off my lawn!

We've been referring to a CHILD as the 'Dean of KnightSlappy U'?!

[Pat Coleman]

OMG -- I am 38.

[Mr. Ypsi]

OMG -- I am 38.

YOU can get off my lawn too, whippersnapper!

[cave2bens]

OMG -- I am 38.

Yeah - me too, in waist dimensions... (versus "wasted") 

YOU can get off my lawn too, whippersnapper!

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." 

At a mere three years your junior, almighty water warrior of the Huron, perhaps I might mow your lawn? Still a steal at 12 bits, and toss in a dated package of efferdent as weekly bonus.  Floss 'em if you've got 'em.

So what? Buddy Holly died two years before I was born, but if someone writes a blog post about a trip to Lubbock, Texas and jokes about meeting a girl there named Peggy Sue, I'll still understand the reference.

Any eyes and thoughts from week 1 of the Holland rec league?  Who was there?  Who was missing?  Was Mr. Bunn in attendance?  Jared?  Corey Williams?- thought it is an odd choice of pic recently viewed on the Hope website..... Still haven't heard much about anyone on the west side of state but Cornerstone sure is making a killing coming off the title run. I was hoping to get more insight on wm kids during the Champions of Character game but haven't even heard if it's going on this year.

The high school game is June 23rd

The college all-star game is June 22nd

I have not seen a full roster for either, last year they were announced only about a week before the games took place.

No, but I've always thought that some of the players could use one...
