That was tough to watch/listen to.  :D

Quote from: Retired Old Rat on April 14, 2026, 09:04:13 PMI hope he will be provided the resources required to be successful.  Don't think that's been the case in some time.

I've been exchanging some emails with Dan O'Brien.  He told me that he designated the head wrestling position as a full-time position when he started as AD, which is a big step in the right direction.  I get the impression that he's fully behind the wrestling program, which is much more than I can say for the previous administration(s).  Time will tell, but I think this is a great move.

Van Krevelen to Lead Saint John's Wrestling

He's certainly built great success at Shakopee.  I hope he can return SJU wrestling to relevance!

Bennie flag football started strong, knocking off the Gusties, Cobbers, and Auggies this afternoon.

Yeah, I guess I am not complaining so much, BDB, as stating that it's a bit rich for my blood. Or should I say it's currently too far down on the $$$ priority list, for the time being.

It is a fundraiser, but $250 is kind of steep.

I think it seems a little steep, too.

Big news out of Collegeville as SJU parts ways with wrestling coach Kevin Schiltz.
I'm hopeful that AD O'Brien is committed to bringing the program back to competitiveness.  They have an opportunity to be great, but the school will need to commit to it.

Or he'll get tired of PJ's persona and mediocrity...

I smoked pot with Johnny Hopkins.

I went to our nephew's squirts(?) hockey game the other night.  First hockey game I've been to since '99.  Meh.

Quote from: faunch on February 26, 2026, 08:20:47 PMAgreed...I could probably be convinced to pay $100 for conference football if it got CSS to improve their ****-y production.
Video production or on-field production?  :o

I get that you want it to be free, Faunch, but it costs money to produce these streams.  Do you think the schools should just eat the cost?  How much would it actually cost you to go to the game?

I'm not saying that I like having to pay, but if the option is paying for a decent broadcast vs. watching a CSS Football stream, I'll gladly pay the $10-$15.

Will this be the home of CSB flag football discussions???

According to my dad, in the early 70's, it was just John and Terry Haws.  John was not an alum and I don't think Haws was.
