Title: Shirts, and stickers and decals oh my!
Post by: cawcdad on November 01, 2007, 05:28:34 PM
I know there was talk about this before but I couldn't find the thresd. Anyway, today was wear a college shirt day at my school. A young lady walked into my 6th perod with a Crown shirt on. Whoa, here in California.

How often do you see shirts or other signs of D-III schools in parts of the country no where near the school?

I remember seeing Willamette and PLU bumper stickers when I was in L.A. Saw a Rowan shirt in S.F.

I was in Cooperstown, New York this summer and saw a fellow wearing a UW-Whitewater shirt.  Talked to him for a bit - he was an alum, now living in Florida.

I used to have a Linfield license plate holder and was flagged down on several occassions (by people in other cars) who graduated from Linfield.  One was a very old gentlemen who had graduated in the 1930's ( I don't know how he even saw the license plate holder!).  Oh yeah, I'm in Southern California so I guess if you drive in traffic long enough you'll encounter somebody who has graduated from just about any school! :)

Working in NYC and living in North Jersey you get the same thing.  I have seen hats, shirts, bumper stickers etc from D-III schools from all over the country around here.

It was going on on the Around the Nation thread.

Same with the list of famous D3 alums, that's on there too but someday needs its own thread.

I've actually taken to wearing D3 shirts from different places when I'm not working or covering games ... so the day someone says "I saw a guy on a D.C.-bound plane with a McMurry shirt on," I'll know just how small a world it is.

Would it be possible for this site to do something like a d3sports.com store???  I know this site gets a percentage if someone links through here to buy books and things like that.  Could this site set up some type of space on here where you could buy merchandise from any of the D3 schools???  It might be mutually benefitial for both the schools and this site???  Maybe.

I've never been too big of a fan of wearing internet-purchased team/college clothing....it seems a little bit like cheating to me.  Wearing a Hardin Simmons or Cal Lutheran shirt that you purchased in Abilene or Thousand Oak is certainly better (more honorable even??) than wearing one that you bought through an online warehouse or Steve & Barry's type store.

If it puts money in the schools coffers whether you bought it at the school bookstore or online I wouldn't think it would matter.  And if this became an added revenue stream for these schools and for this website I wouldn't see what the problem is.

This has been a watershed summer for me seeing D3 car decals in the D.C. area. First off, I commute into D.C. now and often find myself stuck by the pentagon or somewhere.

Second, seeing a Johns Hopkins decal (or Bridgewater, CNU, even Gettysburg) doesn't exactly count, as they're all regional schools.

But I saw Sewanee on back-to-back days this week. I think I've spotted half the NESCAC in D.C., definitely Bates, Amherst and Wesleyan. Grinnell I think. Beloit I think. Just some real off the wall "really, here?" type of stuff.

I wish I remembered to post them as I see them, but anyway ...

Pep was wearing an AU football shirt while walking around the festivities at HarborFest in Oswego, New York over the weekend. As a result, Pep was approached by a couple of AU alums, who Pep chatted with for close to 20 minutes while standing some of the time in the rain! The gent had played golf (with Coach Yunevich as his mentor) and basketball at AU.

D3 t-shirts are very common among U of Michigan grad students.  I'm reasonably sure I've seen EVERY school from the UAA and NESCAC at one time or another, plus dozens of others.

In the parking lot at Lake Louise (Canadian Rockies) this summer I spotted auto stickers from Amherst, Williams, and a couple of others I've forgotten - plus (Pat and K-Mack? ;)) Catholic and RMC!

BTW, the Amherst and Williams vehicles were side-by-side.  Is it legal for them to travel together? :o  And if not, I wonder if they noticed (and if one vehicle had tires slashed before departure)? 8)

This is not a shot at you D.O.C., but your post reminded me of a question I always have when the subject of the settlers taking Native American land rears it's head. Are the same people who think that was an act of evil, the same people who now are for abolition, or loosening of national borders? It seems that way to me, but I haven't taken a poll. Like some great man once said, "Consistency is the hobgoblin of the logical mind." or something similar.

None taken.
I started the thought so I own it.

I'm reminded often of the Robbie Robertson song of
THE BAND
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Just take what you need and leave the rest
But they should never have taken the very best


If the best land were not taken I surmise we would see more native American gear around and not the downsizing of the last 30 years.

Thanks for the correction cwru. A little after I posted I realized "logical" should have been "small" . Even that would not have been exact, but at least more correct. The collective intelligence of those on here never ceases to amaze me.

Yes, and we would not have seen the Comanche tribe adopt the Spanish horse about 1650 to become the "motorcycle gang" on the plains and terrorize tribes such as the agrarian Jumanos in south Texas, and run them from their lands.

I like to buy them to hang in my classroom to brighten things up. Altholugh I'd prefer to stay with the D3 theme I started, I'm not picky about the sport. Let me know who to contact if you know.

SR,  When I played at PLU in the early 80's Frosty decided to get new uni's so he gave us players the option to buy our jerseys.  I bought two of the three we regularly wore that year.

SR,
Well now there's an idea.  While I'm not totally willing to give up my jerseys (I mean it's only been 24 years since I played).  I would send you one for a year, kinda like a loan to an art gallery. :)  You could display it for a year and then mail it back.  Now mind you it's not like I was an ALL-American or anything (but I was listed as a starter for the 1983 National Championship) and technically they are not D3 as we (Pacific Lutheran) were NAIA D2 when I played.  Let me know if you are interested.

p.s. speaking of half-shirts and the like.  I also have the t-shirt I wore under my pads for every practice and game for 4 years, it's a little thin  ;D

I got an iPhone a few weeks ago actually. I saw one of those super-countrified Ford F350s with the double-wheels on the back, with an Obama sticker. Tried to take a picture of it, but it didn't come out so well ... so I don't think I'll be depending on the ol' cell phone camera :)

I got an iPhone a few weeks ago actually. I saw one of those super-countrified Ford F350s with the double-wheels on the back, with an Obama sticker. Tried to take a picture of it, but it didn't come out so well ... so I don't think I'll be depending on the ol' cell phone camera :)

Swarm ... nice approximation of the Captains sails.

Last week I got out my travel bag that I took with me to the Stagg Bowl and in  the process of packing it for a short trip I found a Whitewater pin.  Very unusual to find something like that in the bag of a Purple Raider.  No idea how it got there.

I'd just like to say that this topic will get me in an accident as I'm determined to find some D-III reference on a vehicle out here in the desert.  I might be the only one sporting DIII gear with my ONU football decal and alumni plate frame but I'm determined to see if this DIII wasteland has any other supporters.

AF4, you can understand how those of us who grew up in Texas west of I-35 came to love the horizon and the sky.  Traveling west of San Antonio, you can see the next ridge of hills 25 miles away.  I recommend a drive to Sul Ross State in Alpine sometime.  At night, there is very little "light pollution" so we can "millions" of stars.  In the spring and summer, the joy is watching the "thunderheads' build to 70,000 feet as the thunderstorms come in.  And year around, especially in winter, we get the beautiful sunsets!

I get claustrophobic in the pine forests of the southeast US.   :)

Ralph and AF4,

I understand both your feelings, but I dearly love both the 'Big Sky' of Montana (Manitoba, etc.) and the pine forests/lake country of Maine (Ontario, etc.).  They're both fantastic, just in different [understatement!] ways.

Sorry for the diversion - no new sightings to report. :P

at the iron gym where i go (and the boy goes when he is in town) we saw a young man that had a 'Lagrange College' tag on his car., and a tat that read "TRUTH" across his back.  He told us he graduated last yr from LC, played football 2 seasons (his Jr and Sr year), and is getting an MS at Auburn

while we were talking it dawned on he, my son, and i...i had coached him in youth league wrestling when he was 11 & 12 yrs old

we talked old times, he was one of our 2 Al state USAWrestling champs that came out of that club (the boy being the other)...again...a small world

Agree totally with your sentiments, but he specified a Korean man.  This would have to be an actual Afghani or Somali, not a GI!  Of course, even those might be immediate gifts.  How about Burundi or Estonia?  I've got it - first person with a Tonga or Easter Island sighting wins! ;D

I saw an Ohio Northern t-shirt at the Fiesta Bowl.  Unfortunately it was mine and I was wearing it to the pre-game Fiesta Bowl Party but in the first ten minutes I was at the stadium I was stopped three times.  The first person saw my shirt and said they were ONU class of 1993.  The second person was from ten minutes outside of town and knew all about ONU from his time living near the campus.  The third was an All-OAC center from Capital that played from 90-93 and was a captain of the Crusaders football team his senior year.  I know the game featured OSU but it was still a bit surprising to get such a reaction from my D-III gear so quickly.

He passed us slowly on the right so he was right next to us for a good bit(no I wasn't hanging out in the left lane, it's three lanes there and I was in the middle). That pink RAZR kinda stands out when the sun hits it right.  :)

A Washington & Lee(I think) sticker on the back of an SUV at Mike & Ed's BBQ in Auburn tonight.

The wife was in the big city  ::) yesterday for a doctor appointment. She stopped at Mike & Ed's to pick up some Q for dinner and saw the same vehicle and a kid wearing a Washington & Lee T-shirt taking out the garbage. Former W&L student transferred to AU and working there maybe?

but your point is well taken

i just note every time i see a D-3 school...as in that airport was a sea of Wisconsin  and packer and the ohio state clothes,  only 1 'u-dub-dub' and  1 Auburn pullover ( and i spoke to him at length)

no problem at all...u r most likely correct, and i should probably not post all i see, as some of my sightings are tooo close to the schools

i am so use to seeing Auburn, alabama, UGA, TAMU..stuff, and anytime i am not on or accross the street from a D-3 campus and i see something  D-3, i am bad about noting it,

unfortunatly for the folks wearing the d-3 shirt or hat, i am real bad about speaking to them.  :D  my bride is mortified by that behavior :o


I feel a kinship to all of D-3 schools and thier supporters, that probably exists  only in my warped mind. ???

if u see a near 6 ft, bald, beyond middle aged, fat guy with a Huntingdon ball cap walking near...it might b me...i mean no offense   ;D

I fully realize that I-85 runs near the Emory campus, but i was inside alabama on I-85, so this should count

a Green Toyota, 4x4, truck, mud grips, super suspension, sitting up high, with 2 tied down gas tanks in the bed, and the back opened, no bedliner...........and an 'Emory' sticker in the rear windshield

now this truck would have been happy with a 'UGA' or 'BAMA" or even a "Troy" or MTSU sticker....but i could tell the toyota was as perplexed as i was that it had to wear an 'Emory' sticker

the driver was pulling on a cigarette , late 20's early 30's, male...i waved, but didn't stop to speak

young man (but older and taller than the first) wearing a 'Wittenberg Athletics' (a former player, now a hard core iron pumper)

a young man (youngest but much larger than the other 2) wearing a purple letter jacket, with a big white 'M'... this one is a current player on the  O line for  mount union, i asked him where his national champ rings were,  and he laughed and said he had 2 at home and would like to get a third next year

And I had a guy yell "FU!" at me which obviously refers to Finlandia University, right?

W&J castle on the back of an SUV and another real random one, maybe from the MIAA, that I can't remember right now.

Wore my McMurry shirt outdoors the other day too. Someone must've seen me!

Finally, something out here in the desert SW.  I saw a Wabash shirt at the Apache Junction vs. Bradshaw Mountain high school football game.  I asked him if Wabash always fights.  He appeared surprised by the reference and I quickly explained myself.  Turns out he's the father of a backup QB and PP lurker that works to recruit potential future Little Giants.

While I'm dying to joke about drunk Union "working girls" often throwing up at night coming home from work, it only serves to stoke my envy that Union actually enrolls girls--pickin's were mighty slim at RPI in the early '80s.

Going back and forth might be the best strategy.  I badgered someone on the MAC board last year, and he claimed that it's said either way.  Kind of like in Troy, you hear "Rents a LEAR" just as often as you hear "RENTS uh ler."

I really don't like it when my inner cynic has such good evidence to back up his arguments.

Climate--specifically a temperate one--is a matter of aesthetics, but it's not enough of a factor to get Pepperdine--in Malibu!!--on the top ten list?   But why does only California climate get you points?  Ever see the Middlebury campus in fall (https://www.d3boards.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm1.static.flickr.com%2F107%2F268834700_a57b28f225.jpg&hash=69d6de8e886e4fc0943bc65a0ee9ca64ae474efe) or in winter, after a snowstorm? (https://www.d3boards.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2Fthumb%2F9%2F9e%2FMiddlebury_College_-_Le_Chateau.jpg%2F800px-Middlebury_College_-_Le_Chateau.jpg&hash=2525915229e46e29a02b6d68954238ea4145a774) I'll bet anything its bluestone buildings look a lot better than Minnesota's Superblocks.

My inner cynic is highly skeptical that anything in either Cincinnati or Minneapolis can compare to the ugliest NESCAC campus (whichever one that might be).

Also, love the Middlebury pics. And the structure hub link.

And along the lines of the topic, saw a Tufts shirt in D.C. last week, which I think completes the signs-of-the-NESCAC in D.C. checklist. They're easily the proudest conference in D3, no?

Dear Mr. Keith D3 McK-Mack:

We have been forced to defer a decision on your admissions application.  Apparently, it was misdirected to our slightly less prestigious sister school, Renssaelear Polly.

We look forward to continuing the rich dialogue that you have helped establish.

Concordia Phys Ed tshirt on a girl in Target yesterday in Queen Creek, AZ.
Yeah, but which one?   :D

You mean there's more than one Target in Queen Creek?  Wait--you mean there's more than one girl in the Target in Queen Creek?  Wait--you mean, . . . never mind.   ;D

WILLIAMS TRACK shirt on a fellow in Commerce, CA, today.

Was he old enough to have run on the horseshoe-shaped track that Williams had until sometime in the early-mid 80s?

I saw a woman in northern VA suburb wearing a WESTERN MARYLAND FOOTBALL sweatshirt this past weekend.  I asked her if Western Maryland was her college's maiden name, and she was clever enough to answer yes.  I convinced her to call the school (McDaniel) by my preferred nickname, Western McMaryland.

When I was going to high school (back in the dark ages) one of the gals who was a year behind me was wearing a Carleton tee shirt. She was rather well treated by God, upstairs ;), and one of her classmates went up to her and as he moved his head around from left to right, he said, "Car - L - Ton"  in a drawn out manner. I hope you get the drift. Sorry for that trip down memory lane  but.............

Yesterday I went to a Wisconsin State high school Championship game wearing my St John's cap, and saw a tween as I walked into the stadium wearing a St Thomas Tommies sweatshirt (he was too young to vent on) and kept my backside warm on my buddy's Augsburg blanket. A real MIAC night.

Reminds me of a woman I worked with years ago when I lived in Auburn, AL. Whenever she wore her school sweatshirt someone would invariably ask her where UBUR was.

Didn't buy one(25 and 30 bucks, don't think so) and didn't think to take a picture. On the back where it had all the teams listed, it had SUNY Maritime where it should have had Maine Maritime.

Found out today that one of the guys I've been playing basketball with for three and a half years in Arizona was a QB during the Augustana run.  He played there from 84-87 and was part of three natl championship teams during the streak.  I had no idea for three plus years of weekend basketball with the guy.

Just curious, but how many people support their alma maters and a local d3 squad? I almost feel like it'd be cheating on Wabash to cheer for Sewanee or Centre (the two nearest schools). I have the utmost respect for both schools. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar issue.

It becomes easier as you age! :(

I'm an IWU alum and CCIW partisan.  But having lived in Michigan for nearly forty years, I'm an MIAA fan (save only those times where CCIW loyalties override it).

You can feel free to cheer for Sewanee or Centre (your choice :D) with no guilt, whenever they are not facing Wabash!  And perhaps especially when they face DePauw - your call. ;D

I'd add that you could even cheer for IWU over Wabash in the football playoffs with no guilt, but I don't believe in rubbing it in! :o

I can tell you, now the first round is over, I have no guilt cheering for IWU in the playoffs. IWU is a quality school, with quaility alumni and students. And I can, in fact, forgive at least half the students at IWU for not going to Wabash. :) As for the other half, well no one can make the right choice all the time.

Ironically, my second choice was Wabash.  (Third was DePauw, but I knew nothing about the Monon Bell at the time, so don't hold that against me! :D)

And, for me, I think I made the right choice. ;)  (Though my wife was a student of mine when I was a TA at Michigan, so maybe my undergraduate choice didn't really matter - I would have thought wherever I went was the right choice! :P)

I do know that I was better prepared for grad school at probably the #1 sociology department in the country than most of my classmates, despite feeling rather insecure with my 'parochial' roots.  'Little schools' often rock! ;D

Mr. Ypsi,

I have told many, and it's the truth, that frickin' freshman english best prepared me to graduate.

Almost ended up in Vietnam because of it. Hardest damn year of classes I ever took. And as an idiot, I always took the same instructor because I figured he saw how hard I tried. Silly moi. (that's sort of french. A language I took for 4 years and can speak/write/read fluently. It was english I had trouble with.)  :D

He smiled, "Yes."
I pointed to my shirt, no response.
Guy never heard of LINFIELD!

He has stuff from all of the NWC schools as well as St. Johns, Gustavus Adolphus, Hamline, & Concordia Moorhead of the MIAC. He has stuff from Wisconsin Whitewater, Beloit, Coe, Wartburg, Mount Union, Cal Lutheran and McMurry. This is just the stuff he has put out so far.

So Pep accompanied 30 Alfred University students (including Saxon football players Andrew Small, Milton Harding, Vinson Hendrix, Jerry Bond, etal) on a Spring Break Collegiate Challenge trip to Florida where in three days the crew built a house from concrete slab to finished roof.

En route, the bus, its second day on the road, made a stop for lunch off Exit 49 of I-95 near Darien, GA. Pep walks into the KFC/Taco Bell along with some others and hears a young man say, "Go Saxons!" Pep went over and met one Ryan Dona, an Ithaca Bomber who played for Welch 2002-2005, going 4-0 against Pep's Saxons. Dona, now a resident of Charlotte, NC, was taking his brother to Daytona Beach for Spring Break.

On Saxon Warriors!

Pep has been to that Habitat for Humanity store in Charlotte...where they've got a neat little coffee shop tucked in the corner. In fact, Pep's Alfred University Habitatters spent a night at a church youth house in Charlotte as arranged by the manager of said store. Pep Jr., an AU grad, teaches 6th grade math at Eastway Middle School in the "inner city" of Charlotte. A good number of Alfredians are transplanted in the Charlotte area.

We should be glad that Pep has the luxury of using English to expand concepts through neologisms.

Such would not likely be the case with the Académie française.

Pep will need to consult his Funk & Wagnalls to figure out what the heck Pep has done now!

"Alfredian" has long been used for "a resident of Alfred, New York"
"Habitatter" is what Pep calls his AU student members of the campus chapter of Habitat for Humanity

And, as a matter of fact, Pep plans to prepare potatoes for a coming Habitat for Humanity fund-raiser, a food booth accompanying a silent auction art show in conjunction with Alfred University's Annual Senior Art Shows May 8. Pep has already used the term "Habi taters" for said potatoes.

The coffee shop, or more specifically the used book area attched to it, was our reason for being there. My wife likes to buy books from them and then donate back when she finishes them. And if your son teaches at Eastway he deserves hazardous duty pay. It may not actually be inner city geographically, but the overall vibe of the school couldn't be any moreso. Bravo to him for trying to make a difference.

Big time Wheaton mix-up...

Today Show anchor Ann Curry gave the commencement address at Wheaton College (Massachusetts) but gave shout-outs to Rev Billy Graham, Wes Craven and Todd Beamer.

http://www.boston.com/ae/celebrity/more_names/blog/2010/05/where_am_i_the_crowd.html

She is clearly not a D3 fan, because she would have known the difference.  Wheaton College Illinois is in the CCIW, their baseball coach is Lee Driggers and they play football.  Wheaton Massachusetts doesn't play football and is in the NEWMAC.

What I would have loved to have seen was a panorama of the faculty and students when she mentioned those other Wheaton alumni before the Wheaton Mass audience.

Spotted at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio over the weekend:

Mount Union football tee-shirt, worn by a high school kid who had attended camp there. Waiting in line for the Top Thrill Dragster, I spotted the kid, a couple of lengths back in the queue line and said, "Hey, do you play for Kehres?" The kid replied in the negative, saying that he attended high school football camp there.
Another guy in the queue line just one length back heard the conversation and piped up, "I played for Kehres." And so, Pep yielded his place in line so as to embark in a lengthy conversation with a tailback who had begun his football career at Akron, transferred to Mt. Union and, unable to afford the tuition there, went to Youngstown State where he was a walk-on until the entire coaching staff was fired.

Other colleges seen on shirts: Oswego State, SUNY Oneonta, Kenyon, plus some from places with which Pep is unfamiliar.... "O" and "M." Not sure where they were coming from.  ;)

It's also pretty common to have a shirt of the place/school you've visited.

I've seen all kinds of D III shirts in an area with a rival team, let alone a shirt in an area that doesn't have a team.

Just left dental chair  :P, and returned to vehicle in the parking deck.  What are the odds to find three cars, in a row next to each other, sporting "Morehouse," "Hampton-Sydney," and "Wabash" stickers in urban Atlanta?   :o

About the only connection for Morehouse to DIII that remains is the record time in the 400 Meter Hurdles that was set by Edwin Moses, when he was a student there.

On the first we went to the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, 'Salute to America' performance at Greenfield Village (about the sixth consecutive year we've gone).  No better way to spend the 'Fourth'!  Fantastic music, always culminating in Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, then Sousa marches throughout the fireworks.  This year's grand finale was the most incredible, but briefest, finale I can ever recall - about 60 firings in a 5 second period! :o

Following the ride, she looked very nice all wet!!  ;) Walking out of the ride, passed a different (obviously) 20-ish looking Korean girl waiting in line at the same ride wearing a John Carroll T-shirt.

He has stuff from all of the NWC schools as well as St. Johns, Gustavus Adolphus, Hamline, & Concordia Moorhead of the MIAC. He has stuff from Wisconsin Whitewater, Beloit, Coe, Wartburg, Mount Union, Cal Lutheran and McMurry. This is just the stuff he has put out so far.

-- Saw a bunch of UMHB shirts on people on K Street a month or so ago. Thought they were Hardin-Simmons at first.
-- Grinnell in D.C.

I think a couple more that escape me at the moment. I always think of you guys and this thread whenever I see someone though.

Come on K-Mack, UMHB has been fully co-ed since the early 70's, and men have taken classes at UMHB for much longer as Campus Boys.  The campus Boys worked on campus and were allowed to take classes, but not graduate.  Heck, I went to UMHB in the 80's.

Here in Central CA the school where I teach had a speaker today for all 9th graders. His is an incredible story of essentially being abandoned and homeless at 14 with younger siblings. The gentlman's name is Roy Juarez, Jr. A little over a year ago he graduated from Hardin-Simmons. He is now on a speaking tour and touching kids. It was incredible watching them.

His assistant is a stout looking young man so I asked if he played ball for the Cowboys and he indeed did for a couple of years before injuries sidelined him. His name is James Alvarez.

They are traveling around the country in what they are calling "Homeless by Choice" If you get a chance to see and listen to Roy, by all means do so.

WINCHESTER, VA. - The last major GE factory making ordinary incandescent light bulbs in the United States is closing this month, marking a small, sad exit for a product and company that can trace their roots to Thomas Alva Edison's innovations in the 1870s.

The remaining 200 workers at the plant here will lose their jobs.

Winchester VA is the home of Shenandoah University.

About 10 years ago I was living in Tulsa, OK and wore my F&@K WABASH shirt to the convenience store.  Go figure, the VERY FIRST guy I see when I get out of the car comes up to me and asks whether I went to Depauw.  Turns out, he was a Wally.

I asked the older gentleman about them and he said those were the three schools where his grand-daughters attend.

Too cool! AU Trustees were meeting in Manhattan and someone had arranged the NASDAQ visit...perhaps AU Trustee Joel Moskowitz, CEO of Ceradyne, Inc.

One of Pep's student workers at Herrick Library, who heads up the student group that runs Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF), meets with the trustees and was with the Alfred group at NASDAQ. Earlier in the week, he was on the floor at NYSE with a College of Business class. The kid works wonders with investments. Pep is thinking maybe he has a future on Wall Street.

Her jaw temporarily dropped, then laughing she said - "please, don't even say it..."  and opens her bush shirt to reveal a DePauw "T".  "Heh, heh - Wabash, m'am and your shirt is missing the common name of those birds that return to Capistrano."  ;D  Great evening of laughs and suspect she'll be back from "the Bush" to visit a few times during her research sabbatical - not many DIII types over here among the stuffed shirt, Ivy elites at the Embassy.

The Rev thought about opening a Hobart store until he saw F&M all over the place. The Rev is now working on a more original idea.

The Rev wonders if F&M realizes all their stuff is being knocked off without any licensing fees paid?

Was walking around the Duomo in Florence, Italy when I saw a guy with a Stagg Bowl 2010 t-shirt on. I stopped and asked what his connection was and he told me that he had officiated this year's game. I had my Wabash t-shirt on and it was a nice D3 moment half way around the world!

Quote from: Rt Rev J.H. Hobart on May 29, 2011, 09:27:44 AM
The Rev wonders if F&M realizes all their stuff is being knocked off without any licensing fees paid?

Yes, they do. It was a hot topic about 10 years when Tim McGraw wore this shirt (https://edisk.fandm.edu/occ/magazine/autumn01/au01_story2.html) for some publicity photos.

The clothing brand doesn't use an "and" in its name.



Actually, some of it does; some of it doesn't...it all depends what you're looking for in "fashion!"  See HERE (http://www.asos.com/Women/A-To-Z-Of-Brands/Franklin-Marshall/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=6825&r=2)

The brand was established in 1999.  It's actually an Italian clothing company, not South Korean. They may have been sewn in SK at one time, but not anymore. Founders were Giuseppe Albarelli and Andrea Pensiero, not exactly your typical korean names!! ;)  They got the idea after finding an authentic F&M sweatshirt in a London second-hand market.  I've occasionally see 20-something girls wearing the brand here, but not all that often. It's much more popular in the UK.  Franklin & Marshall Clothing Company owns the brand name in all countries except the U.S.A. where the company is a licensee of the college name but is in no way affiliated with, or endorsed by, Franklin & Marshall College.  This is way more than you need to know, but I thought I had to set the record straight.

His and her Gustavus shirts at the Safeway in Kensington, Md., last weekend. There's also a Carleton guy who lives around the corner and belongs to the same neighborhood pool.

And the Hobart folks down the street still have one of the longest, weediest yards in the 'hood.

I've had a remarkable offseason in terms of seeing D3 represented in places. Mostly in the D.C. area I've seen Heidelberg and Muskingum, Beloit and Kenyon. Saw Ithaca twice -- on a little kid's shirt in Va. and on a grownup in Pa.

UAA and NESCAC are common in D.C., as is anything within a four-hour drive (Hopkins, CNU, Gettysburg). Just saw a Colby car sticker on the way in today.

I think my weirdest one this offseason was a DePauw Cheer backpack on a guy in D.C.

Nothing will beat the customized Browns Trusnik jersey though I don't think.

The D.C. area is always a gathering place of lawyers, lobbyist, etc. and therefore one finds many proud owners of college shirts around town.  Of course one also has many visitors and summer interns in town during the Summer.  One of my favorite t-shirts relates more to the town rather than the college......Amherst where the only the "h" is silent!.

Last week I saw a distinguished-looking older gentleman with an IWU 2010 Homecoming t-shirt and an IWU baseball cap at Bar Harbor, Portland, and New Gloucester, Maine.

Oh, wait, that was me. :D

(Since the family camp on Sabbathday Lake - down a few hundred yards from the last active Shaker community - has no indoor plumbing (I was ambivalent when cousins added electricity! ;)), 'distinguished-looking' may be a stretch.  Passers-by may have been surprised that I wasn't diving into dumpsters for returnables! :D)

Anyway, I'm back from God's country.  There I had a lake 20 feet from the camp, but it struggled to break 70; here it pushes 90 and I have no convenient lake! ::)

Last Saturday was my most unusual sighting:

A Trinity University (TX) seat cushion at the 14th Annual Jazz at Chautauqua jazz party in Chautauqua, NY.  When I asked the seat occupant about it, he said the front desk at the hotel loaned it to him.  So if any of you Trinity fans is missing a seat cushion, you know how to get it back. ::)

Doesn't count until a poster reports a sighting - perhaps a Linfield flag on his yurt?! ;D

THEN we can debate the relative extremities of Botswana and Mongolia! :P

For the present, I'd say that Botswana blows my side-by-side Amherst and Williams stickers at Lake Louise (see p. 2) totally out of the water!

Perhaps the unbeatable sightings would be any d3 school spotted in North Korea, or an old Wheaton Crusaders t-shirt in Mecca!  I won't hold my breath waiting for those! ;D

Assuming you are talking about today's Prairie Home Companion (I only caught a small portion of it), it was broadcast AT St. Olaf's!

It was the show you referenced.  I wouldn't have mentioned it except for the football spoof with a donor trying to endow some Viking players for St. Olaf.
He has retired before and came back.  Maybe he will do specials.

Was at a Girl Scout function with my daughter here in Modesto, CA, when I saw kid with a UW-Eau Claire Bluegolds sweatshirt. Turns out his aunt teaches there.

Ever taken your car to a Prime Shine location?
Yep, one of my former students and his father are the owners.
Small world, I used to work for the software company that they install in their sites.  Been to Modesto a few times in the early 2000s to install and work on their systems.  Tell Norm and Evan that Matt (formally from DRB Systems) says hi if you see them anytime soon.

Quote from: Rt Rev J.H. Hobart on May 29, 2011, 09:27:44 AM
The Rev wonders if F&M realizes all their stuff is being knocked off without any licensing fees paid?

Yes, they do. It was a hot topic about 10 years when Tim McGraw wore this shirt (https://edisk.fandm.edu/occ/magazine/autumn01/au01_story2.html) for some publicity photos.

The clothing brand doesn't use an "and" in its name.



Actually, some of it does; some of it doesn't...it all depends what you're looking for in "fashion!"  See HERE (http://www.asos.com/Women/A-To-Z-Of-Brands/Franklin-Marshall/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=6825&r=2)

The brand was established in 1999.  It's actually an Italian clothing company, not South Korean. They may have been sewn in SK at one time, but not anymore. Founders were Giuseppe Albarelli and Andrea Pensiero, not exactly your typical korean names!! ;)  They got the idea after finding an authentic F&M sweatshirt in a London second-hand market.  I've occasionally see 20-something girls wearing the brand here, but not all that often. It's much more popular in the UK.  Franklin & Marshall Clothing Company owns the brand name in all countries except the U.S.A. where the company is a licensee of the college name but is in no way affiliated with, or endorsed by, Franklin & Marshall College.  This is way more than you need to know, but I thought I had to set the record straight.

Interesting background. I've never seen this brand anywhere except Korea, so I thought a Mr. Kim in some alley in Itaewon got a sweatshirt from some young lieutenant years ago and started making knockoffs.

But if it's a popular brand in Europe, it doesn't surprise me that it's popular here in Korea, too. Koreans are berry current with fashion.

Then a few months later, I saw a guy with an Albertus Magnus suit, but I couldn't remember if that was NAIA or III. Turns out he was a recruit, and it was interesting to overhear a kid's impressions of D-III.

I don't know if any other schools have done this so it may not be that unusual, but today I saw a sign for the local Adopt-a-Highway program saying that a particular stretch of road had been adopted by the Charlotte chapter of Roanoke College alumni. Well done, Maroons.

I was in Cleveland on March 27.
I saw a UWSP sweatshirt in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I'm sure it is a common sight in that area, but it is my first UWSP sighting.

A Point sweatshirt in Cleveland...that can't be that common. I rarely see UW stuff when I visit IL, let alone OH.

Good find!

Saw something this afternoon that I thought was very cool. I went a local high school's play outside of Milwaukee. And in the foyer area they had flags/pennants of each college/university that all the 2013 seniors plans on attending. Let me say DIII was well represented.

Apart from the numerous DIII Wisconsin schools I saw, here's some other DIII pennants from other parts of the country:

Benedictine
Juniata
St. Thomas
Augustana (the correct one)
Washington U.

A few weeks ago I ran into a guy wearing a Berry College shirt at the local HEB.  We had a nice chat.  I told him I used to live in Atlanta and dated a girl who attended Berry College.  He said he was in Belton visiting a niece who attends UMHB, so he knew a little about the school and their football prowess.  Small world sometimes.   8-)

The other was to identify the college that merged with Leonard Case's school. "Houston" was incorrectly answered (questioned?) for the first. And a contestant was mislead by the shortened form Case Western and responded "Western University."

Actually scouting for D-3 shirts, stickers and decals.  Lots of D-3'ers in Estes Park. :)

Kenyon decal on a Ford Focus.
Elmhurst decal on a minivan.
I spoke with a former Wheaton IL baseball player '92-'95, wearing a Wheaton ball cap. He recalled their 18-17 season in about 1995 with great pride. I made no tacky IWU-philic comments to the pleasant gentleman.

Pep spotted a Widener University shirt at Cedar Point Resort in Sandusky, Ohio over the weekend. Pep Jr. was in the queue at the Raptor when Cedar Point experienced its first death in its 140 year history. So sad.
Also spotted a few Mount Union Raiders shirts. Approached one Mount Union gent who said he was a wrestler there....long ago!

Pep agrees with your interpretation but application? Likely an ex-Warhawk but also could be an older UMU alum, an even older Augustana alum, or heck, even a Wittenberg alum that's even older than Pep!

Haha. I actually have that shirt! It's reversible, and the other side says "Beat the Berg" (from the back to back games against the two in 2013).

Some random ones:

This doesn't really fit this thread, but nevertheless a random DIII moment occurred when I wasn't expecting it. I met my wife for lunch at a local Buffalo Wild Wings outside of Milwaukee today. And of all the sports stations and TVs they have at their disposal, they were displaying the replay of the Linfield/St. Thomas semifinal game from last week in the bar. Not only that, it was being displayed on the largest flat screen they had. Usually that TV is reserved for the big games or local games...anything but a D3 semifinal replay! I got a kick out of the patrons looking up at the screen with the "what the hell is this" look on their face.

I would have even found it odd if they were re-airing a previous UWW game (at least that's kind of local being that it's instate)....let alone a replay of D3 football game that had little to no interest to anyone miles from where I was.

That had to have been the first time where I've seen a D3 sporting event - of any kind - being aired in a bar, when I wasn't expecting it. And it was a replay...not even live! I just found that fascinating.

(Then again if they were re-airing the other semifinal game instead, I would have turned to my wife and said "We're eating someplace else" before sitting down)  ;)  :'(

This doesn't really fit this thread, but nevertheless a random DIII moment occurred when I wasn't expecting it. I met my wife for lunch at a local Buffalo Wild Wings outside of Milwaukee today. And of all the sports stations and TVs they have at their disposal, they were displaying the replay of the Linfield/St. Thomas semifinal game from last week in the bar. Not only that, it was being displayed on the largest flat screen they had. Usually that TV is reserved for the big games or local games...anything but a D3 semifinal replay! I got a kick out of the patrons looking up at the screen with the "what the hell is this" look on their face.

I would have even found it odd if they were re-airing a previous UWW game (at least that's kind of local being that it's instate)....let alone a replay of D3 football game that had little to no interest to anyone miles from where I was.

That had to have been the first time where I've seen a D3 sporting event - of any kind - being aired in a bar, when I wasn't expecting it. And it was a replay...not even live! I just found that fascinating.

ESPNU replayed the game (I think they also replayed your game at some point). Likely they just had on ESPNU and paid no attention other than OH FOOTBALL

That's not "my game"...I want no part of it.  ;D

Yeah, I actually phrased it in a way that usually annoys me. Like when people say "We" are going to win today. Well, you aren't actually on the team so....

It doesn't annoy me and admittedly I'm as guilty of it as anyone.  What is interesting to me is the words we use.  When things are going well we use words like "we", "us" and "my guys" but when things sour it's "they", "them" and "those guys."

Trinity (TX) ball cap on gentleman I played golf with yesterday at White Wing, Sun City, Georgetown, Texas.  Not a big deal since San Antonio is a couple hours south on I-35.  His daughter was a graduate.  But where it got interesting is that I learned he had played football at Merchant Marine and his son swam at Ohio Northern. I was wearing my CWRU cap, which I now alternate with a newly acquired Southwestern one.

Hang on to it, Ralph!  I'm still a 'Huron', since the Hurons themselves wanted EMU to retain the name (despite the activists who were probably descended from enemies of the Hurons, or more commonly were whites feeling guilt, like my office mate ::)).

'Indians' is more a toss-up (though I recall you saying the local nations were all for it), but when the designation is tribal-specific, I would think they would have say-so.  My office-mate and the EMU President (who was shortly the ex-President, though not for that reason) did not agree.  The fact that the Huron (and Wyandotte - the Canadian affiliated tribe) both lobbied for the name to remain Hurons had no effect.  While I think opposition to 'Political Correctness' is usually a code for 'let us abuse niggers, wetbacks, camel jockeys, etc.', there are times where PC DOES go too far.

Trying not to get political, I would say that Mr Ypsi's perception is one of the reasons we have such division. To make a statement like that means you would rather demonize those with whom you disagree, rather than understand their actual thought process. Maybe if you believed that others were wrong, and not have evil intentions, we could come to some sort of understanding. Once you question others motives, you are basically cutting off all communication.

Mr. Ypsi, you know that everyone who plays football in TX is a stud.  ;)   There's good football here, there's not-so-good football here; it's not one of the hot spots like the D/FW or Houston areas but it's fertile ground for recruiting nonetheless.   Round Rock is one of the 'burbs just north of Austin.

So Pep  is planning in mid-July to take a solo cross-country three-week trip from Saxonville to the west coast and back with the itinerary including stops in:
Bicknell, IN
Lawrence, KS
Tulsa, OK
Austin, TX
Roswell, NM (Carlsbad Caverns)
Phoenix, AZ
L.A.
Yosemite National Park
Pendleton, OR
Bozeman, MT
Mount Rushmore, SD
St. Paul/Minneapolis, MN
Lac du Flambeau, WI
and back to Alfred, hopefully within three weeks!!!

The trip will serve as somewhat of a re-enactment (albeit a very different itinerary) of a family cross-country campiing trip Pep took back in 1966 that lasted three weeks and was such a memorable experience that Pep's siblings still talk fondly of our travels. Pep has purchased a number of accessories in order to turn his PT Cruiser into an RV or a one-man mini-house on wheels and is looking to set up camp when he's not staying with friends.

Pep enjoys visiting D3 stadiums...given Pep's tentative itinerary, are there any D3 venues that are "must see"?

Meantime, Pep will try to document all the D3 shirts, stickers and decals he encounters in his travels....

Pep enjoys visiting D3 stadiums...given Pep's tentative itinerary, are there any D3 venues that are "must see"?


Well, if you're travels take you near/through the Twin Cities then there are a number of facilities worth visiting and if you take a tour of them it's even better.

If you're traveling to/from South Dakota then you can stop in the Mankato/St. Peter area (on Hwy 169) and see two very nice facilities
1) Blakeslee Stadium - Minnesota State University Mankato.  Ok so it's D2 but the field of this stadium is the nicest natural grass field in the USA.  There are no weeds and the grass is packed so tight that you need to use TPU cleats and not detachable cleats on this surface.  It is perfect - better than any field turf or mondo field in existance.
2)Gustavus Stadium - Lloyd Hollingsworth Field.  Just up 169 from Mankato is St. Peter, MN and Gustavus Adolphus College.  This is a very nice, new, D3 stadium.  Decent sky boxes, great seats, and a very nice field.  My son looks forward to playing for the Gusties this fall on this field.  From Mankato to Minneapolis this is on the way so might as well stop in.

If you're traveling to/from North Dakota on 94 then you need to visit Collegeville
3) Clemens Stadium - St. John's University.  This natural bowl and former cranberry bog has turned into a fantastic place to watch football.  Also some of the nicest people I've met have been at St. John's  I was there to watch the Tommy/Johnnie game last year.  What a zoo when you have 17000 fans at a D3 game.

If you happen to be about 30 miles south of Minneapolis/St. Paul on I35 then drop by Northfield to see
4) St. Olaf College - they are getting a new field (mondo surface) so no more grass.  The stadium itself isn't special but the football building on the west side of the end zone is.  This fairly small building is all football.  Locker room, Football office, player lounge, meeting rooms, weight rooms - it's all football.  My son loved his recruiting visit to St. Olaf and was impressed with this facility - what a great place to play football.
5) Carleton College -  Laird Stadium.  I use to hang out in this stadium as a kid.  It use to hold a 220yrd indoor track, handball courts, sauna, and a weight lifting cage.  Us townies would sneak in and train in the weight room and on the track since our Jr High and High School didn't have weight facilities at the time.  After a flood a few years ago they remodeled the inside of the stadium and it's now a very nice football facilities (offices, weight room, etc).  A few vestiges of the old indoor track remain.  As for the stadium, when first developed there was talk of Carleton being a part of the Big 10 and so the stadium was designed and built along the lines of the horseshoe at Ohio State.  The property was designed to hold a horseshoe but they only built one part of it which is the stadium you see now.  Quite large for D3.

If you're in Minneapolis/St. Paul you can see a number of great stadiums, all different, and all most all of them are very close to each other.  You can see all of them in an afternoon.
6) University of Minnesota - TCF Bank Stadium.  Ok, so it's D1, it's real nice and if you can take a tour the locker room is wonderful.  It's worth seeing though.
7)  Edor Nelson Field - Augsburg College Stadium.  Just south of the University of Minnesota is D3 Augsburg.  They get high marks for finding a way of converting a parking lot into a football field where one side is adjacent to a busy freeway.  They also manage to put a dome over it for the winter.  where else can you miss kick and have a ball end up in a freeway.  Small, cramped, but lot's of fun, decent facilities and a great place to tailgate (city park next door to field).
8) Seafoam Stadium - Concordia University, St. Paul.  Ok, Ok, you're on your way to St. Thomas from Augburg so you might as well swing past Concordia and pay homage to your boat's fuel additive.  D2 facility, field turf, has a dome in the winter.  Not a bad facility.
9) Klas Field - Hamline University.  My son played an 8th grade title game on this field.  Attractive Stadium, decent turf.  My son use to train winter baseball in the field house - very nice facilities.  The basketball facility is very old school and wonderful.  Great Track and Field facilities and coaching.
10) Macalester Stadium.  The new Leonard Center is really the Jewel at Macalester and a major upgrade to their facilities.  The stadium is decent, very open, good seating, but bring your own refillable water bottle as they've gone green and don't sell throw away water bottles.  There are dorm rooms in the stadium - interesting.  My son was heavily recruited to play here and really like the coaches, players, facilities, and program.  Pretty campus.
11) O'Shaughnessy Stadium - University of St. Thomas. Nice old stadium with very modern facilities built up around it.  Great place to watch football (been to many HS football games there).  If you stop by see if you can take a tour of the facilities in the Anderson Athletic and Recreation Complex.  Great weight room - great football S&C coach.  A locker room that puts many D1-FBS power 5 conference locker rooms to shame.  Not quite as opulent as the Gophers but getting close (lots of big screen TV's and game controllers).  When they were building the Anderson Student Center, just south of the stadium, the administration had it moved 40 feet to the east so the windows on the upper floor function room would a line dead center with the football field.  When they're playing in bad weather, parents of the players and VIP's can move into the student center to view the game and stay dry.  Got to love St. Thomas athletics!

So Pep  is planning in mid-July to take a solo cross-country three-week trip from Saxonville to the west coast and back with the itinerary including stops in:
Bicknell, IN
Lawrence, KS
Tulsa, OK
Austin, TX
Roswell, NM (Carlsbad Caverns)
Phoenix, AZ
L.A.
Yosemite National Park
Pendleton, OR
Bozeman, MT
Mount Rushmore, SD
St. Paul/Minneapolis, MN
Lac du Flambeau, WI
and back to Alfred, hopefully within three weeks!!!

The trip will serve as somewhat of a re-enactment (albeit a very different itinerary) of a family cross-country campiing trip Pep took back in 1966 that lasted three weeks and was such a memorable experience that Pep's siblings still talk fondly of our travels. Pep has purchased a number of accessories in order to turn his PT Cruiser into an RV or a one-man mini-house on wheels and is looking to set up camp when he's not staying with friends.

Pep enjoys visiting D3 stadiums...given Pep's tentative itinerary, are there any D3 venues that are "must see"?

Meantime, Pep will try to document all the D3 shirts, stickers and decals he encounters in his travels....

(https://www.d3boards.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi239.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fff158%2FRatrod94%2Fgriswold-family-truckster-screencap.jpg&hash=7713493085af6a2f59488e664450fb59c61fd877)

Love this....two years ago, Pep was doing some research on Alex Yunevich in southern Indiana, then traveled up to West Lafayette to visit Purdue for extended search. En route, Pep stppped at both DePauw and Wally's World at Wabash!

So my wife and I were visiting old D3 friends in Des Moines this past weekend... Huge outdoor art fair on Friday night, Huge farmers market on Saturday... I people watched my way thru 1000's of people, all the while looking for a D3 shirt... I figured I was in the heart of Iowa Athletic Conference territory, and amidst some of the Midwest Conf schools, even kind of close to the SLIAC's Iowa Wesleyan....WOE IS ME... NOT A SINGLE D3 jersey spotted... the closest thing to D3 I saw was a Waldorf University shirt.. No Simpson, Central, Loras or the rest... What a Disappointment... (though I was reminded of old home days when I spotted a South Haven, Michigan tshirt....)   :(

As in the Webster University Gorlocks? Seems like ages ago now, but Pep's Saxons edged the Gorlocks in an earlier matchup in Sports Illustrated's Campus Rush Division III Best Mascot Tournament.

The Saxons are on the verge of capturing the national championship, currently leading the Vixens of Sweet Briar College by a 58% to 42% margin with voting to wrap up tomorrow morning.

On Saxon Warriors!

I spent 8 days at the USA Track & Field Olympic trials at the University of Oregon. I was surprised at the number of d3 shirts I saw. There were a number from area schools, but I also saw De Pauw Lacrosse, Occidental T&F, Cal Lutheran, Salisbury, Tufts t&f, Hampden-Sydney, Roanoke College, North Central t&f, Delaware Valley, Wartburg, Catholic, Oberlin, Carleton, and talk to the assistant track coach from St. Joseph's College-Maine. He was sporting his shirt and found out he is a Wittenberg alum. I also saw an MIT alum license plate frame as I drove down I-84 in the Columbia river Gorge.

Pep, while waiting for the gates to open at Chase Stadium in Phoenix for a Diamondbacks-Nationals game Aug. 1, spotted a "Wabash College" shirt. Pep asked the young man wearing the shirt whether he was a student there.

"No, but I'll be starting there this fall," the young man replied.

"So are you from Indiana?"

"Yes, I live in Muncie."

"Ahhh yes, it was Muncie Central that lost to Milan's Indians in the 1954 Indiana State Basketball Championship...you know, the real story behind the Hoosiers movie," I offered.

"I know all about that!" the kid replied, "My grandfather played for Muncie in that game! He's sitting right over there."

Hearing that, I rushed over to the gentleman and told him I was pleased to meet one of the players from that famous basketball game and that I have in my possession a collector's DVD set that includes video of the actual game.

"I've got that DVD as well," he said.

Hoosier neighbor? All of them are neighbors.

The Alfred Sun has a good number of subscribers in Texas, including one in Tyler. A former Alfred University administrator who took a job at Southwestern and who has since retired lives in Georgetown. Also in Georgetown is a long-retired Alfred Prof.

Pep wouldn't mind visiting in Texas (again) in a few weeks. If the Saxons can get through this Saturday, I'll be one week closer. Funny that Pep visited the Cru stadium a few months ago, long before there was any hint that the Saxons would pull off a perfect 10-0 season in the rugged Empire 8!

I saw a guy with a Wheaton shirt at the Consolidated Gold Mine in Dahlonega, GA over the 4th of July.  He said he's a 2000 alum and was visiting family in the area.  He immediately noticed my UMHB cap and we struck up a lengthy conversation about football (including his dismay over their loss in the playoffs, which he was able to stomach a little easier when the Cru won the Stagg).  It's such a small world sometimes.

FINALLY today, driving back to the condo from (gulp) church, with my wife.. spotted a licence plate holder (holding Florida plates) boldly advertising...

North Central!!!   Given it's Red lettering, I'd be assured it was the Cardinals of North Central (Illinois), not the Rams of North Central (Minn.)

I was visiting my parents in Ocean City NJ a few weeks ago and on the boardwalk I bet I saw a shirt or sweatshirt or car sticker from every NJAC,  NESCAC and MAC college, most of the Centennial, most of the E8 and LL, and a variety of others. I've lived in the South for so long I forget that all those NJ kids scatter to liberal arts schools. Down here if it's not Alabama or Auburn, or when I lived in Florida, FSU or UF, you just didn't advertise that you were going.

I know this is almost a decade old, but it was probably an Adrian High School shirt, as they are blue and white.

Craziest thing I saw (wife needs to share me the pictures)... while driving the Baltimore Beltway (I-695) on a Friday afternoon... a bus that had a livery completely decked out in Thiel stuff. I assume it was a Thiel bus. Gave me a great opportunity, while trying to figure out what they were doing in that location, to give my wife an idea of how you say that school's name. :)

Sorry, I'm only a sporadic listener, and obviously missed those shows.  To the best of my knowledge, IWU has never played "Teal", so had to go by sight and guesswork.  After a whole career at a school with a high proportion of foreign students, I pride myself on pretty good guesses on pronunciations, but it is less than infallible. :P

Sorry, Dave.  I really respect what you do, but aside from live sporting events (and SOME NPR shows), non-musical radio tends to work better than Sominex on me! :-[

You are overthinking it... and mispronouncing Maryland :) Though, your hard A works for Averett, but there is a hard a in Gustavus, but NOT in Adolphus. :)

Some places keep their AC set ridiculously low - which is not only expensive to them, but harmful to the planet (unless their electricity is 100% renewable).  I try to remember to keep a sweatshirt handy even in mid-summer - I'm tired of shivering uncontrollably in some restaurants! ::)

Well, as a Johnnie, how confident are you in your comparison with Mount Union? You can't possibly be worried RHIT will win straight up, even as an HCAC homer I wouldn't pick Rose without a bunch of points, considering Mount beat RHIT 66-14 to open the season. I'm betting St John's will want to make sure no one gets hurt heading into a playoff run, but they certainly wouldn't risk ending the season on a sour note (and if Rose beats Hanover the week prior they'll be in the playoffs so would they take it easy knowing they're likely headed for another brutal road game in round 1. If they lose to Hanover then I'm sure they'll go all out).

If I was taking RHIT I believe I would need at the least 45 points.

Aquinas College - NAIA - given the color scheme of the sweatshirt its the one in Michigan, not Tennessee, but who knew that there were two!

Lake Erie College - DII - founded as a women's seminary in 1856

I am easily amused.

Not really a shirt/sticker/decal, but I just found out that one of my neighbors played ball at Swarthmore before the program was shuttered.  His wife seemed a little put off by how excited I was to talk about DIII football once she told me.

Well, that is too bad and a shame. That is also her problem and she'll just have to deal with it-she's an idiot. Good for you! We can always "out discuss" people like her!

For lack of discussion on the E8 board, I'll offer a piece here. I embarked on a 2016 three-week solo coast-to-coast trip in my 2002 PT Cruiser that took me from RI back to western NY, then west with stops in Vincennes, IN; Lawrence, KS; Tulsa, OK; Belton, TX; Carlsbad, NM; Phoenix, AZ: Los Angeles; Pendleton, OR; Bozeman, MT; Collegeville, MN; and Lac du Flambeau, WI....

While in Phoenix, Pep had tix for a Nationals-Diamondbacks game which, after visiting a Cardinals open practice at U. of Phoenix Stadium with Alfred alum friend, we arrived early for the MLB encounter (featuring Stephen Strasburg pitching for the Nats). Waiting in 100° F. heat, I opted to walk around the stadium to the gate closest to our seats, while alum chose to stay put. "A race to our seats was challenged."

Arriving at the more distant gate, I spotted a "Wabash" shirt. Approached the young man and asked if he attends Wabash. He replied that he would begin classes there that fall. Then inquired whether he was from Indiana. He affirmed, "Yes, I'm from Muncie." Being a Hoosiers movie fan who in 2004 had researched the "real story" vs. the "screen story," I remarked that "Muncie is the team that lost to Milan in the 1954 Indiana State Basketball Championship!" The guy replies, "Yes, I know, my grandfather played in that game and he's sitting right over there!"

Pep made a beeline for the older gent to shake his hand. May have said something like, "It's an honor to shake the hand of a famous loser."  ???

I asked her, "Northwestern Minnesota?

"Yes", she replied. "I ran Cross Country for one semester. I like the T-shirt. How do you know that?"

I said, "I am a member of the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association and I cover UMAC baseball."

We had some "small talk" about the UMAC and then she  said, "Do you know Dave Hieb?".

I said, "I do not know him, but I know of him."

She said, "My husband played for him for 4 years."

Then they called us to the starting area.

I caught up with her and confirmed "Gallaudet University" on her sweatshirt. Not being fluent in ASL, I just smiled, spoke "Gallaudet University", and gave her a "thumbs up". She smiled back; someone had noticed her sweatshirt and what it meant.
