I am going to guess the pcole has not seen MC or any other MWC team in recent memory that wasnt playing St. Johns or some other beast in the first round of the playoffs.

So....

I personally invite pcole to the MC vs. Nubs game next year at Bobby Woll.  I bet i could even get the AD to offer up a seat in the Luxurious Press Box which overlooks the field from the north side bleachers (those of you familiar with MC have to be smiling).

How bout it Pcole.  Come experience Scots Nation first hand.

Heck, come over to Galesburg, IL this Saturday and watch one of the oldest football rivalries in the country (#6?).  Despite the host school, the venue of the is about as festive (ie. enthusiastically obnxious) as you can get.  You won't be able to hear anything from their P.A. system, but what else is new?  You'll be right on top of the action and are sure to see some creative, um, t-shirt designs.

Tell ya what -- if Monmouth hosts St. Norbert next year you can count on me being there.

Listen, folks, it's this simple. Monmouth has no track record. You can't wrap yourself in St. Norbert's playoff competitiveness and claim it for yourselves, it doesn't work that way, especially since Lake Forest laid an egg the year it won the league. You have to develop your own track record and since you didn't do it in the regular season either of the past two seasons, you'll have to do it in the playoffs.

I hope Monmouth can schedule even a middle-of-the-pack IIAC or MIAC team for its non-conference game in the future. Simpson, Coe, Bethel and St. Thomas are all on our Open Dates board for next year in the first two weeks. Hopefully Monmouth is done with CUW.

pcole - I think the MWC re-configures the schedule after every 4th season; meaning that after the 2005 season is over with, it could be time to have the schedule re-drawn--not completely sure, but I think that is how it's worked in the past.  But if the schedule isn't re-drawn after this season, it would be St. Norbert's turn to play at Monmouth in 2006 and I'm sure Old Fighting Scot would hold you to your promise of being there.   As for non-MWC games of the future: Monmouth is done with CUW and has done better than just a "middle-of-the-pack IIAC or MIAC team" for their non-conference game in the next 2 years.  Wartburg is slated for a home-and-home series in 2006 (at Wartburg) and 2007 (at Monmouth).  I'd say that going off their track record, that's a pretty nice non-conference game for the Scots!

scottie - Should be interesting to see what kind of creative t-shirt designs are present at this year's Turkey Bowl.  See ya there or at the Bijou afterwards!

Old Fighting Scot - It just doesn't get any better than that press box over the east side bleachers at Bobby Woll Memorial Field.  Nothing quite like it...

Hawk Sighting - Thanks for the props, I was pretty sure I knew what I was talking about for once!

[NINJA MASTER]

MC at KC in bowl Sat.
Knox must pray for Rain... if it rains KC in upset by 2
If it is dry Monmouth by 70.
you ask...oh great ninja...how can there be such a difference.
I reply....Knox has good run D and decent run game...if wet Knox may squeak one out...but if dry oh my, Monmouth will use Knox as practice dummies preparing for the playoffs
You plead for the outcome as you can't wait for sat. 
Please great wise one...tell us! tell us now!!
Again I reply...it will be wet...KC 12  MC 20...WITH no made extra points (mark it down you will see!)  Lastly, I also see drunk people gathered...shouting obsenities toward each other!...alright that was a gimme.

And if it's not at Monmouth then no deal, exactly.

Good step-up-the-schedule move for Monmouth.

[scottie]

The addition of Wartburg to Monmouth's schedule was mentioned on this board a few weeks ago.  A competent moderator would have caught that...      For some of the relatively new posters on this board, I should tell you that "pcole" has never lost an argument.

Just kidding, Patrick!

Makes no difference wet or dry
Monmouth by fifty

[FloridaScot]

Oh Great Ninja,
It could actually be raining turkeys and the Scots will put up half a hundo. You cant find a student on the MC campus that knows what its like to have a bad turkey bowl. The last Knox student to enjoy a turkey bowl victory is now a resident at shady acres retirement home in Boca Da Vista, Florida (He and I talked, it was a big day for him).
The Scoties haven't let down the nation yet and definitely wont on this most cherished of games. I only wish I could be up there (stupid wedding).
Maverick, ya got any ideas of who and where were going to be playing. I think I could slip away for a weekend and hop a plane for the playoffs. I'll just tell Christina that I'm going to go and do some grading at school.
Well the Mitchell Mustangs have to get ready for their last game of the season. We need a win to finish 500. On a bright note, with 100 more yards passing and 50 yards rushing our sophomore QB will have 1,000 and 1,000.
My PMS is really starting to burn.
Half a HUNDO. STRAIGHT from the Rooster's mouth

[ccfan69]

Congrats to Monmouth.  I think you guys are going to shock a lot of people out there in the nation.  You have a tough team carried by a great qb.

MC vs. SNC having a D-coordinator for more than 1 week and it's a different story.  I hope you enjoy the beating you get in the 1st round.  Also, expect a beat down next year at your place.

Could it be Hulk Hogan?

LU put some numbers up last week.  Looks like Ram Rod, Tickle me Osol and Thee Coach Schultz are cooking with gas.

[Old Fighting Scot]

There will be no beating down of the Fighting Scots, period.  Not in the turkey bowl (ninja, i refuse to believe, that even you think the fairie fire have a chance), not in the first round of the playoffs, and definitely not at Bobby Woll next year against Nubs.....

PCole, i will be contacting the AD to put an extra cushion on the V.I.P chair for ya.  Think of the game as research, if you actually see the best MWC football in person it would be hard for us to yell bias, when MC goes 10-0 and still isnt ranked, or when MC becomes the only 9-1 team in like 10 years not to make the playoffs.  Also, It would  be hard for you not to give respect to the Scots Nation when we show you what we have all been saying for two years now.  Yes indeed, those boys down at MC can play some football.

MC Football by 50 in the Turkey Bowl, whether the Fairie Fire like it or not!!!

[MCGramps97]

Hello Gentlemen, old 97 here, hope to see some of the oldtimers up at the game this weekend. i'm bringing some students so i wont be joining you at the B-pub, but i'd love to catch up a bit. Good luck Scots!!

Tickets to the Knox-Monmouth Game: $5

2 cases of beer before the game:  $25

Knuck Fox T-shirt:  $12

Being drunk and watching Monmouth win the Turkey Bowl and the outright conference championship:  PRICELESS.

Good luck this Saturday!  D-Line let me hear that god awful song that Ole has taught oh so well, that we will be singing till were in our grave

[meachscribe]

You MC guys are making asses out of yourselves.

After you get it handed to you vs. UWW or the Johnnies, are you still going to whistle dixie about how you're the best, blah blah blah.

You're team is not that good.  And that's coming from a staunch supporter of this conference.  Hell, even Ripon thinks you're not that good. The Knuck Fox shirt is the best thing posted from you guys since the losing ended.

Quit crying dynasty.  It'll end soon enough.
