Well, this will be my last season of listening to games for a while.  I'm moving to Singapore on Dec 1.  Game time will be 2 am Sunday mornings, and there ain't no way these creaky old bones will cope with that schedule.  Suddenly, I have become a huge supporter of night games.  Let's delay kickoff by six hours.  That I can take.

Whoa, that is big news, Oz!

Career move? If so, what do you do for a living? Old bones? How aged are your "old bones"? You should be able to watch the archived games once you've gotten your sleep!

I'm looking forward to trekking up to Northfield on Saturday to cheer on the Johnnies! Are any posters planning on attending?

Would have loved to come up for the St Olaf game to see the Viking's practice facilities as I've attended Johnnie games at the Metrodome, Target Field, & Allianz, but have tickets to the #10 Iowa women's basketball game the following day in Sioux City at noon. It had been scheduled for a 3:00 tipoff, but was moved up.

I'd offer to share my Hudl login so that you can watch the games at a more reasonable hour but no chance I'm paying to watch online next season...home schedule is a bore.

Well, that certainly is news, Oz. Trusting it is a move up that you are wanting, and not a lateral move you're being forced to take to keep income coming in because the herd is being thinned. Sincerely, I'd love to help with the moving - but the Pacific is too deep and wide for my pickup and trailer. Keep us posted.

Thanks, all.  These 58-year-old bones are looking forward to the challenge.  Singapore is a good town.  Clean.  Cosmopolitan.  With a tax rate that makes me feel like a victor from the Boston Tea Party.  Less than half what I have paid these many years in Australia.

But the job will be hard work.  They'll make me earn it.  A person shouldn't complain about hard work, I guess, but a couple hundred million dollar lottery win wold be nice.

So, why is there no mention of the MIAC in this announcement? Anybody got any skinny, or even vicious rumors?

I was just going to post about this.
Would SJU or BU play in something like this if they didn't make playoffs and were invited? What about Concordia or maybe Gustavus?
It's an extra opportunity to play a game and maybe get a look at some players for next season. It's also an additional expense.

If the MIAC turned down an invitation, that's a very disappointing outcome. Pat, perhaps an invitation of MIAC big wigs to the podcast for an explaination is in order.

[DriftlessDuhawk]

Many ARC people were quite disappointed to learn that the MIAC would not be participating in the event. Most of us had always assumed the MIAC would be the go-to dance partner when the ARC eventually announced its bowl game.

The MIAC was certainly invited.

What in the world...? What compelling reason would there be to not be part of this? Granted, nobody is paying me the big bucks to make the call, but someone somewhere should explain it to the fans of D3 Football.

I guess I'll have to update my TBD bucket list Aussie motorcycle trip with Oz visit to a bucket list Singapore trip with Oz visit.
