Minifig Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Not a big deal.. right? Yeah.. it is. It's the first time they've been beaten by their arch-rival in twenty nine years. Yes, twenty nine. The Streak is over. Undefeated Mishawaka beat visiting Penn 26-10 Friday night to end Penn's 153-game Northern Indiana Conference winning streak. Mishawaka (7-0) had not beaten its arch rival since 1980. Penn (6-1) had not lost a conference game since 1985. The Kingsmen entered the game ranked No. 1 in the state's 5A classification. Link. ---- I am a Kingsmen at heart, but I'm so happy for the Cavemen.. and they totally deserve it for every single time we've destroyed them in the past. As I said on my Facebook: They do deserve a win.. just every .. how many years has it been? 30? We can do that.. just every thirty years.. we give them a false hope that they'll win again, and then we continue to dominate them from here on out. Simple. Kind of like a Kingsmen's approach to Pavlovian response conditioning.* :) *At the time I didn't know it'd been twenty nine years. Congratulations Cavemen!

Growled Member Posted October 6, 2009 Member Share Posted October 6, 2009 Good for Mishawaka. It's time someone else had a chance at winning things. I have to say, though, Penn had some very impressive streaks going on there.
