Time for Oscoda, After Dark

The Saturday night Scoreboard Show!

Yes, yes, Johnny has missed it too! Shall we?

Florida State 31
Alabama 17
Alabama fans right now wondering what that serious little guy that hangs out with the duck is up to

Frostburg State 41
Shepherd 27
Johnny has Frostburg State slated to play in the Fiesta Bowl after this big win

Iowa 34
Albany 7
Iowa better be careful using up all their points like this on Albany

Carson-Newman 41
West Virginia State 10
This one time, long ago, Johnny had sex with a girl who went to Carson-Newman

Ohio State 14
Texas 7
The Arch Manning era lasted 3 whole hours

Furman 23
William & Mary 21
Johnny's beat up Furman hat worn on an early dog walk this morning was probably this difference here

Indiana 27
Old Dominion 14
Anyone else think this is too close for a playoff team last year?

Presbyterian 25
Mercer 10
When Johnny says he checks ALL the scores on Saturday he means ALL the scores. Zach Switzer who scored on a late TD run almost got to loot and pillage. Almost.

Boston College 66
Fordham 10
BC must have been like angry and stuff

The Oscoda City Desk Game of the Week®
Howard 10
Florida A&M 9
It's serious business kids. It's late in the Orange Blossom Classic. Tyriq Starks had moved the Howard Bison into position for a late opportunity for glory. Matt Conord claimed that glory for Howard hitting a 43-yard field goal as time expired. For his efforts, Matt Conord may loot and pillage Miami Gardens Florida for the next 24 hours.

Two quick notes tonight; How about those Oscoda Owls? They scored a big 32-14 win over Roscommon on the road last night. They'll be home to Kalkaska next Friday at the Owl's Nest. 7pm kickoff.

Also, remember to come back for the first Saturday night Scoreboard Show of 2025 tomorrow night, always a good time.

There is no sound in space because molecules are too far apart to transmit sound. Now you know.

Time for Oscoda, After Dark


Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with DEEP PURPLE!

There's just no debate, chicks from dystopian areas are just hotter. 'Knocking At Your Back Door' starting off the festivities tonight.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with JULIE BROWN!

Johnny is old enough to remember when this song came out, from the comedic mind of Julie Brown, and it was considered a total joke. Complete parody. This could never happen. They played it on MTV it was considered so silly. 'Homecoming Queen Has Got A Gun' up next.

She did it, for Johnny...

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with NO DOUBT!

This song, 'Excuse Me Mr.' encapsulates the trouble with the band. No energy. 

LOL, push the furniture back, go crazy.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with M!

Since the Music Series this week is brought to us by the letter M it's only fitting the band named M kicks things off. Jump in, you know the words, 'Pop Muzik' kicking things off this evening.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with MOBY!

This song, 'Porcelain' is far and away the best song named Porcelain. 

FACT!

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE MOODY BLUES!

Always sounding good on a summer evening. From 1970, it's 'Question' taking us out.
