one hundred nine days before
- Miles and the Colonel attend a basketball game (the team has a losing streak every year but always wins against the deaf-and-blind school), where they put aside their "passionate hatred for the Weekday Warriors" (109before.6).
- As they find seats, the Colonel and Miles confront Kevin, the leader in Miles's hazing. Kevin proposes a truce, but the truce hinges on Miles's knowledge of presidents's last words, so no truce is reached. Go Miles.
- During the game, the Colonel leads the Culver Creek Nothings (yes, that's the name of the team—they have no mascot) in rousing and insulting cheers. You should really go read them yourself.
- Finally, the Colonel upsets the opposing coach so much that he gets kicked out of the game; not to worry, this is his 37th time of being kicked out. He has a reputation to maintain.
