This Saturday brings to an end a Johnnie Football season which in some ways reflects the craziness surrounding today’s college athletic world.  College football fans have witnessed massive change in conference alignments, improprieties involving illegal benefits and even the fall of one of college footballs greatest icons.  This is in no way indicates SJU suffers from similar ills, just [...]

2011 stolaf game

Saturday’s big play offense vs Carleton was a glimpse back in time when Johnnie football lived by the pass and racked up points and wins by the dozens.
The 2011 Johnnie Football season has been surprisingly highlighted by lopsided losses, inconsistent offensive and defensive play as well as constant media references to the unhappy Johnnie fan [...]

2011 gustavus game

Greetings Johnnie Football Fans; 
It’s been nearly two weeks since the last Johnnie Football setback against Bethel however there are slivers of hope.  Back to back games against MIAC powerhouse schools UST and BU certainly could have left our footballers maimed and mumbling but for more than 3 quarters SJU showed BU a decent fight.  A few plays here and [...]

2011 stthomas game

The Tommies keep moving the ball…. first it was 1,000 seats in the endzone for Johnnie fans and now the figure has been adjusted to seat closer to 500 as not to cover up the scoreboard.  Whether it’s Bethel University doing the absolute minimum to provide suitable seating or UST still trying to figure out how to [...]

2011 stthomas game

Greetings Johnnie Football Fans;
It’s been an ugh start to the Johnnie Football season but no one, and I mean no one loves a party more than the tailgaters from Collegeville.  The Tommies are up to their usual tricks and have secured surface lot M just south of campus and are implementing rediculous rules ruining any attempt [...]

It took nearly 36 hours and lots of guts, perhaps the same guts Joe B. Quarterback lost early in the afternoon Saturday to even have the nerve to glance at the St. Cloud Times website and review of the Johnnies first round playoff game.  As I gradually moved closer to my desk, instinctively my computer mouse finally found [...]

2009 augsburg game

This past weekend was perhaps some of the most spectacular weather in all of 2009 here locally in the state of Minnesota.  For those of you who lamented a summer in which temperatures were unpredictable, your reward was 3 consecutive days of autumn bliss and excess.
Minnesotans this weekend selected from traditional and timely activities such [...]
