sitting at a table with a couple of olinemen at the table. Great event.
I’m at the kickoff lunch now

Looking forward to joining the Purple tomorrow. Flight arrives around Holiday Bowl Parade time so will at least make it for the pregame festivities.
There were several moose sightings by self and family members this week and if we are lucky there may even be a Bullwinkle balloon in the Holiday Bowl Parade.

I'll be wearing the new grey jersey my awesome wife gave me for Christmas
I may to a rant board post about the rest of Christmas
Fun event. Full house in a very large ballroom. NU fans well represented to this sold out event
Just shook hands with Coach Fitz. Pretty cool!
Event was great fun. We sat with two freshmen LBs and a freshman RB. Fitz and the 4 team captains sat at the head table. Joel Klatt emcee'd some fun exchanges with the players. Food was good too!
Didja give him any game plan suggestions? Ya know, stuff like. "Fitz - two words: Bubble Screen".
Or "9 words - slow developing sweep that gets stuffed by the pursuit"
I gave him Turk’s and Wrestlemania’s game plans and told him to do the polar opposite!
That's actually one of Mick's plays: "Flat Earth, Comfy Shmufy Couch Right"
Are they blocking you from the salad dressing?
The 2 freshman linemen were Sam Stovall from Tennessee and Charle Schmidt from Libertyville, IL. I sat next to Sam during the luncheon and he was generous responding as I was bending his ear asking probably too many questions. Learned a little about nuances of recruiting. The new training facility is a gamechager for new recruits and is much appreciated as an on-campus facility. Athletes are also taking some of their meals there together at some kind of training table. When I toured the U of Oregon indoor training facility I was impressed by their training table for their football players and other Ducks athletes. I imagine ours is similar. Fun afternoon and got to go to the car show at the convention center next door after the luncheon. Now my question is a small SUV like a RAV4 or Nissan Rouge, or a hybrid or all-electric. I’m in a condo so having to jump thru hoops for a recharging station on-site might be an issue.
our colors arent purple anymore.So its common that we wear color assortments. I think getting away from the Northwestern colors may be a good thing. And having the players decide (Many are from Ohio and Florida) is a great thing. We need to move past the university and its poor representation in football, and now identify commercially with UA tie-ins.
"Hail to Purple, Hail to White...."
So White actually IS one of NU's colours.......
I got a RAV4 about a year ago that I keep at my fathers place. I rarely drive it, but I bought a Toyota so I would not have to worry about it.
I am partial to the Honda CRV over those other cars. I own one right now and am thinking of getting a second one. Reliable, functional, and stylish car with great safety features. In general I think Honda makes the best cars out in the market.
