Fine with me. It'll make getting home a lot easier.


And I plan on staying the whole time. I wanna see What Hanie can do. Plus Orton and the starters will play three full quarters. if there was one preseaon game to go to, it would be #3.

So untrue......the stadium will be at least 3/4 full at the end......we want to see who are players will be "when", not "if" one of our starters go down!

i caught the first series for each team. i'll have to check the listings to find otu when the NFL network is showing the rerun.

looks like they are trying to put some more rinkles in the return game. lucky they didn't get stuck at the 5. holy crap. but even if they never run it in a regular season game, gives the opposition something to think about.

Random note for today's game from the Trib's blog:

Back to the present, and it's even stranger than the past. There are people milling about the infield. Chris Chelios, wearing a Ryan Dempster Cubs jersey, is parading the Stanley Cup around the pitchers mound. He throws out the first pitch and sails it over Eddie Vedder's head. Yes, this is all really happening.

Hey everyone/anyone.... what do you think my chances are of buying a ten club ticket off of a member if I show up at Kasey's tonight or even outside the venue? I was there yesterday, and my seat for the show was 2nd balcony last row, so I think it would be a totally different experience if I were to get some really good seats. I LOVED the show yesterday though, don't get me wrong.

How'd the raffle go? Who won the framed Ottawa poster I donated? I hope you were able to get it home safely.

I'd say your chances are pretty good. There were lots of people with extras at the pre-party yesterday.
