Dale Liszka
Hometown: Greenville, PA
Graduation year: April 2003 (by some miracle)
Major(s): Drinking, Carousing, and Debauchery
Minor: Computer Engineering
Currently living in: Washington, DC
Signature Move: The Dale Flail (you've been warned)

Favorite quotes:
"Dude, did you just lactate? Dudes don't lactate." -Paul "Happycake" Jesse
"Oh shit, Nick's hurt again..." -everyone
"Heyyyy dijoyu knows thahemmigwayses hass $1 beerses BEFORE soccerrtime?" -Me
"Ole Ole Ole Ole OLE OLE!" -anon
Interesting fact about yourself: I have had 2 major surguries from Soccer (torn ACL and broken neck
(C6 vertabrae))
I have not had toenails since I started Hooligan Soccer. Ask anyone
who's played with me why not.
Best Hooligan moments:
- Handing out 300 slices of cheese during Hooligan Soccer's first appearance in the Freshman Activities Fair (2000)
- Being the first organization to destroy the Pete's lawn
- Mid winter soccer in 3ft snow drifts
- Having allocations requests read to (and denied by) the Chancellor for:
- A miniature donkey, 1 year of stable time for said donkey, 5lbs of crisco (2000)
- A bullhorn (2000)
- Inflatable swimming pool (2001)
- $1500 to purchase car wreakage (2001)
- 1 Adult sized ScoobyDoo moon bounce (2002)
PS. Hooligan Soccer did not historically have a good relationship with
those [sic] at SORC or the Allocations committee. That is why we play
these little games.
Advice: Being a Hooligan is about friends, partying, and debachery...soccer
is actually a side effect.

Paul Jesse
Hometown: Plymouth Twp, PA
Graduation year: April 2004
Major: B.S. Electrical Engineering
Minor: Industrial Engineering
Currently living in: San Diego "America's Finest City"
Favorite movies: C'mon...after all those nights of Office Space and Super
Troopers...how can I pick another. However if Harold and Kumar were out
while I was still there that would have been on the list too.
Favorite quotes:
"It's stinks like sex in here"
"Are you high? I'm not low"
Interesting fact about yourself: I can clap with one hand..and if there was
ever a ghetto Bob Vila show it would be hosted by Dale and myself.
Best Hooligan moments: way way way to many to list. A few are definitely
"The Dale Flail"; When Ulis, Nick, and I were actually good before we got
injured/old/lazy; The mud games...I think there may still be mud in my ear
canals and teeth
Advice: The real world is NOT what it's cracked up to be. Take your time
in college and enjoy EVERY minute. Don't worry about getting straight A's
because what you know doesn't matter, it's who you know. All that matters
is the piece of paper. And most importantly...make sure what you are going
to college for, you really really like. Don't get a degree in something
because you think it will pay well after school. All degrees pay well if
use it to it's fullest. And it's not worth 4-5 years of torture just to
make a lil more money.

Interesting fact about myself: At one stretch sophomore year I was at the
Presby ER 4 times in 5 weeks.... by the time I blew my knee out the nurses knew me.
Best Hooligan moments:
The very first organized Hooligan night where we had 10 games of 7 v 7 at the same time going on on the Cathedral lawn.

Advice: For the love of God study
something you like and may actually like to do for the rest of your

Advice: As Dale said, Hooligans is rarely
about soccer and more about everything else that goes along with it. Once
you realize this, it becomes so much more fun. As for real advice, how
should I know...I'm delaying my entry into the "real world" for at least another
two years, ask me then.
