When are the Over/Unders for the season coming out?

Somebody needs to take it over since LaPorteAveApostle will no longer be with us.


I don't know who LaPorteAveApostle is. Why is he/she no longer with us?

I don't think any of us know him.  He lives in Florida, is a Catholic church musician/organist and was one of our most prolific posters.  Some have speculated that the birth of a child gave him new priorities.  Stranger things have happened...

My memory could be wrong but I believe they might have been expecting their second child. Either way he was spending far too much time with us but he will likely still be closely following the team.

So question #1   Will it take LAA 8 games before he stops by to say hello?    I will say under.

VOTED 7-1. LOOKING FOR AT LEAST 2 UPSETS. BUT BEING A TRUE VU FAN 8-0 WOULD BE AWFUL SWEET.

He logs in every now and then, but hasn't since August.  Wish him well!

My personal feeling is that we will not see LAA posting any comments in the near future.

I got some third hand information about him from someone who knew him when he lived in Valpo. His mother was employed by Valpo. He worked at Moellering Library and was contemplating becoming a catholic priest at one time.

Sounds like LAA is never coming back to the board. I know he was expecting another child, as he said here before leaving.

Looking ahead, tonight's game is the biggest obstacle to a 7-1 November - and possibly a 12-1 Nov./Dec.  :o

Well I'm pretty sure that option is out unless he wants leave his wife and child.  The Catholic church would frown on both.

Was this an at large birth issue?
