Courtesy of the boys, a friday night blog is much needed. Against popular belief, tonight me, beard, kev, and chuck are all sitting around in the living room watching Sweet Home Alabama. I know this house is labeled otherwise, which is why the boys wanted the readers to know what really goes on here. In other news, there was a women's basketball game earlier on this week that we showed up to 30 minutes early to see the complete stretching and warmups. No, actually Beard was mistaken and thought the game started at 7. So to kill time, we sat in my car and listened to Taylor Swift work her magic. Wednesday night the baseball team had a basketball night where everyone was split up into their class. Seniors dominated because Phiten is simply too tough to guard. A triple team was not enough. Unstoppable. Biggest trash talker goes to Goat (Coach Mayben). Beard wanted you all to know that he was voted sixth-man by Phiten. Thursday was a typical morning with big dog breakfast prepared by Chuck this time. That afternoon me, Sasquatch, and Beard went out looking for christmas sweaters to wear for the last chapel prior to leaving for the semester break. We struck out at value village, but goodwill treated us well. Kev's sweater is legit, keep an eye out for kitty cats. Thursday night dinner was spaghetti prepared by pasta followed by IM volleyball. It was a struggle, but we squeezed out two wins to assure us of a playoff spot in hopes of avenging our championship loss last year. Also that night, Chuck completed a 35 page paper on Spain. In looking ahead, the gameshowdown will be the main attraction Sunday with all eyes on FB. The family wanted all the readers to look for details on an upcoming white elephant christmas dinner. Signing off.

It's been a while, but Beard has urged me to post with news regarding the apple cup. Enough is said right there. There's always next year. The only news post-thanksgiving is that Chuck brought back a new indoor nerf football for routs through the hallways. The ball is so new that the surface is slick causing more incomplete passes than completions. It's just a matter of getting used to it though. The family went on a wal-mart run last night so that Beard and Kev could pick up some gloves for the house. When the thermostat is set to 50 degrees, it doesn't leave a very comfortable space to live in. Part of the family has dinner already brewing with a chicken & dumplings soup thing in the crock pot. Tacos are on the horizon for others. In other news, Chuck is at Western Oregon on a field trip experiencing a true science lab. Lucky him. If you get SI, I would recommend reading the Rick Reilly article. Lastly, this week is huge in the IM volleyball world. A berth into the playoffs is on the line to avenge our only loss from a forfeit. Take care. Signing off.

Hopefully everyone had a happy thanksgiving and put on a few solid pounds. Enjoy the days off because when we get back, you all know a few extra routs will be ran to burn off the unnecessary poundage added. The house is empty with just the recycling and garbage cans outside showing any life. Kev's car is manning the driveway and an apple pie from Pasta is watching guard of the house. That's right, there will be desert for us all when we return. I have to give a shout out to Chuck for his Pack played well again today. Sets up a showdown next weeekend with the 'Boys. Big time game this weekend with WSU at UW. That game should give the fridge rights back to my magnet. Then husky nation will dominate both the living room and kitchen. I should take a step back and inform the readers about last weekend. Me, Beard, Kev, and Flakey drove out to Pullman for the oregon state-washington state game. Long drive, boring and rainy game, a good nights sleep, and a long drive concluded the trip. Seriously though, it was worth it. Mike Riley is the man. Haven't washed my right hand since. I wish everyone a safe drive back and look forward to see you all. Signing off.

It's a sad sad week. A dismissal has caused havoc to the baseball team. Regardless, we are all pushing ahead. Not much news around the house. There will be more news following a harrassment education training course tomorrow. Otherwise, it was another big dog breakfast this morning. The Jimmy Dean skillet was prepared well by Kev. I think that's all the news. Signing off.

To satisfy the readers, I have decided to continue posting. It's been a big week so far. Lots of big news not safe to share, and lots of big news to share. The food schedule this week has been amazing. Started it off with a big dog breakfast tuesday morning, followed by spaghetti, and concluded with elky joes. Wednesday was just a normal breakfast where I got a buzzer out of my honey nut cheeriors. I was able to buzz both Beard and Kev! Lunch Wednesday was leftovers in which Phiten (emery) and Flakey (Warner) came to visit. Dinner consisted of beef strogenoff prepared by Kev with some help by Beard. Thursday morning was another big dog breakfast. For future meals today we have elk, donated by our new roomie for the week, Chewey (Balbas).
Tuesday we got some conditioning in for baseball by playing street football. I was all-time qb and delivered dimes all day. There is another conditioning session scheduled for 4:30 today. Because the weight room is off limits to some, we (me, Chewey, and Sasquatch (McGraw)) were able to get a one week trial membership at The Citadel (The Courthouse Athletic Club). The place is what a weightroom should look like. There we play some racquetball as well, where Sasquatch dominates. I just wish he took some of that fire into baseball with him. We also received a new weight lifting program for the rest of the fall and got a new beenie.
IM volleyball has just begun and tonight was supposed to be the match of the year, but some key members of our squad will be MIA. Instead I thnk a forfeit may be in the works. In the latest season played of NCAA football, the Corban College Warriors brought home the national title trophy. Despite everybody being seniors, we have all returns for another four years to continue what we built. Beard won the heisman that year to add to his two other heismen trophies in his case. I was a runner up in two of the four years.
Not as exciting, but I did get a new desk to dock my computer at. Makes it much easier to focus when I don't have the fam wanting to run routs through the kitchen and hallways. For some reason I am the only one who can deliver a pass on time and accurately. Some other news Beard wanted to be released is that our sweatshirts came in. Noting else to say about that. That's all the news you have missed and so desperately wanted. See you all Monday. Signing off.

Still big news. It's about to break, but precautions are being taken in the meantime to notify all family members involved.
