Hah, no kidding. Of course, I was probably too poor that point to stock up on Warriors gear to keep me through the next 50 years....
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.
Jay Bee, that is how I remember it, GE's vs. Lightning. There was even a rumor going around that Lightning prevailed, but that was just a rumor. Agree, if I was half as aware then I would have raised hell. I did vote for Lightning, but I was probably impaired shall we say.
"Cords said the decision wasn't the result of pressure from Indian groups.""The decision - which Cords attributed to unspecified university officials..."Somebody should get a prison sentence for this atrocity!
Im embarassed to admit that I remember being really excited when they revealed the Golden Eagle mascot and he skated around on roller blades. I thought he was awesome...then again I was 9. Mind you I also LOVED Bleuteaux as a child

I wonder how the guy pictured on the right hand side of column (Royce Dam) is doing these days.
I just got off the phone with Royce. He is a bit hard of hearing but he has a fascinating story to tell. We shared our love of fly fishing and it turns out Royce is a Marine who served throughout the Pacific Campaign. Royce was in the 3rd wave to hit the beach at Iwo Jima - the wave when the Japanese defenders finally opened fire. Royce related that his unit took 80% casualties within the first 10 minutes of hitting the black sand. He mentioned that by the end of that first day his Platoon Leader was a Lance Corporal - everyone else in the chain of command was gone. Royce fought on Iwo for a week before finally catching a few. He was awarded the Bronze Star, Purple Heart and his war was over.He said he was also on the front page of the last edition of the Milwaukee Sentinel, pictured with an American Flag. Unlike too many other nations, our military has always consisted of citizen soldiers like Royce who answered the call to duty, served with distinction, then returned to their civilian life. But while Royce left Iwo Jima it is clear that Iwo Jima never left him. God bless the Royce Dam's of this Republic.
I did the same Larrym.Saw this MUBB treasure in the sports section:http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=P51QAAAAIBAJ&sjid=AxMEAAAAIBAJ&pg=4249%2C2909338I remember he was coming to campus with hype. Cuse was supposeldy after him but for his other talents.
77I gotta ask if you knew this great Pinoy in McCormick named Mark Afable. Fr Rick Abert got us together to give us the "Have you considered becoming a Jesuit?" talk when Mark commented, "You know Fr, being a Jesuit sounds great but there's this one little thing I'm not sure I can give up..." Even Rick laughed. Mark was one of the nicest guys I met at Marquette.
I know Mark. Good guy. He's an attorney for American Family (Corporate side) in Madison.
Sorry, Keefe.Sounds like he was before my time (AS '97).
Fordham has a fence and their campus is much nicer than ours and so is their "national draw"
