Can you spot the Straub on parade?

Nance, do you mean every child in the photo? The 2 girls back by the car could be a handful.
What happened to jet lag?
Mom and Dad flew in, we had dinner and wine etc, they were up before anyone the next morning, ate a small breakfast and were on the road home, 4 hour drive and then went to Joe's away game last night!
I'm impressed!

I meant a Fairy God Mother to Pat's twins! :-<>

Yah, Mary and Joe rock. They drove, from Omaha, and had lunch, at Sarah's, yesterday.

I'm addicted to the NFL network. Now, when I get up in the morning, that is on instead of the weather channel (I was tired of those annoying girls who always dress in pink and warn that we might have "a rough go of it" if it's raining, anyway). Man, it just turned into autumn over-night. I had my first hot chocolate smothered in whipped cream the other night. And I wore cordoroy pants to work on Wednesday. My flowers look beautiful, though. They like the cooler nights.

Woo hoo! Can you believe it? The game should not have been that close, but what a great game!

Em, the smartest move you made was buying that TV. That was a great game!

My opinion...(was a GREAT 2nd half) once the Heisman was off the table and Samardzija decided not to worry about his Cubs contract, the team really rocked! Go Irish!

P. Rose said...

Well, they won, but it seemed to me more that Michigan STate lost it. With that incredible round of penalties.

yeah. let's face it, ND had a terrible first half and lucked out the second half.

Ed X said...

Its crazy - but in a game that they gave up 37 points, the defense won it for them.

I couldn't believe it. We watched the whole game but turned when it was near the end of the 4th quarter( to watch Mad TV) because of the obvious loss that ND was about to have. Turned back 2 minutes later and they were ahead.

At the beginning of the 4th quarter, when the typhoon shifted into ND's face, I got out the Bushmills and beer chasers and did what I could to help.

Here's my confession. At the last fumble / turnover by Michigan State: "Let's turn the channel... they're loosing... they're loosing...ohmygoshthey'regoingtowin!"

The Iowa State Fan in our house was the one who remained a faithful fan. He's had a lot of practice.

Can someone tell me more about Garrigan's homecoming?
And Eli (like his older cousin) does look great!

Wait, that's not Eli, that's Liam.

Can't ND somehow trick the team into playing a warmup quarter before the game actually starts so they can get the kinks out? Those guys play the 1st quarter like they just rolled out of bed or something. Do they need some warmup exercises? Or someone to pound on them for 12 minutes before the game starts? Should Charlie chase them around the locker room snapping towels? Maybe Joe3 should have his Bushmills 1/2 hour before starting time.

At least put the sign up higher so they have to jump to touch it.

Those kids look pretty determined. I wouldn't get in their way. Liam's got a look that says I'll screw you up, Bub.

Tom,

Do you guys want my washer and dryer for Sarahs? If not, can you let me know as I want it out of my garage before it starts getting too cold.
Thanks,
Monica

Jeez Monica you're so selfish you just want to use Tom to get the washer out of your garage.

Bob sez,
While the ND-Mich State comeback was somewhat impressive this past weekend,I felt the real impressive display of gridiron prowess was showm by the mighty ISU Cyclones on the hapless texas longhorns by their stunning infliction of pain upon Bevo and his minions. Yes the Texans rode high untill the merciless ISU defense held their woefully inadequet offense to 1 1/3 points below their season average. To add punctuation to this pain, the ISU offense was able to salt the wounds by scoring 1 1/3 over average on the inept Texans. This mighty midwest maelstrom is about to be unleashed on the rest of the Big 12 and nebraskans can only shudder at the thought of their inevitable, impending cataclysmic doom.

Beware- This awesome onslaught of inane adjectives and misleading statistics is usually reserved for U of I fans but can unleashed upon those further west (ie. Nebraskans) whose misguided delusional fantasies cause them to incur the wrath of cyclonic fury

You are totally right Joe 3.

Bob was that really you?

all that scoring stats does not matter unless isu gets a win.
