The first game, kick-off, the start of the season, the first home game and so on. These are phrases that are used to refer to the fact that this Saturday sees our Johnnies welcome (not warmly let’s hope) Northwestern to the Natural Bowl and Collegeville. However in my household this day has always been, and [...]

Some of the ingredients that make up “IT” are the devotion, appreciation and dedication to the many traditions and practices by Johnnies of all generations. And while living “IT” may be somewhat easier for those of us in the Johnnie Nation who have ticked off a few more birthdays, we do have a group of [...]

As far back as anyone in the Nation can recall the 30 day till kick-off mark in the off-season has seen generations of Johnnies gather to hear John and the other Coaches preview the upcoming season. This year’s event took place this past Thursday and some 150 or so of the Nation showed up at [...]

They endure all types of weather, they wake well before dawn and make the trip to Collegeville or the “away” MIAC location every Saturday during the fall, in some cases they endure long drives or even longer adventures via the airlines. They bring delicious treats and always extra clothing or sunscreen for all depending on [...]

In the 23 years since I left the 56321 and became a full fledged member of the Nation that in unrivaled this question has been posed to me on numerous occasions. Primarily by Alumni who attended other MIAC institutions.
And when this inquiry is posed to me I tend to have difficulty in summarizing a complete [...]

Everyone you talk to has their personal favorite season of the year. And in most cases people’s favorite season of the year has much to do with what activities or events take place during that time. For many in Minnesota Summer(time) is considered the best time of year, primarily because the other 9 months of [...]

- 2010 hamline game
Flashback- 2009 Johnnie/Piper game (and I use that term very loosely b/c does Hamline really even field a Team) and a 4th down and long yardage situation for the Johnnies.
The Pipe P.A. Announcer (who apparently could not even get a gig announcing games at Gallaudet University) calmly states for all to hear “its 4th and [...]

This week the Johnnie Nation makes the return trip to Northfield as the 2010 edition of the Johnnies battles the Oles. And while I count an Ole as one of my best friends I still feel warranted in giving him, and all that is St. Olaf, grief.
Grief over their Football Program (both the actual team [...]
