That's just off the wall,Ralph. I wonder if Ronnie Van Zant is rolling over in his grave. When it finished did you see that they also have their versions of "Stairway to Heaven" and "My Way"?

[AF4]

i actually like the version of the Leningrad Cowboys....... in the video, the Red Army folks r trying thier best to sing the words (u no they have no idea what they r saying...'where the skies r so blue'!!!!)

  M&M's version in 8 mile is ok...but almost evil and UnGodly... i feel dirty each time i see it

.... but the best (non-Skynard version) has got to b Jewel ("being southern is a state of mind").... like TuPac once said..."its all good"

ralph & Hawks 88,  i pray yall r both well

keep the faith and go Hawks

[Ralph Turner]

Yeah, Stairway to Heaven is very good!

In the month of May the VFW distributes Buddy Poppies.  Please take time to give a dollar and take a poppy.  The proceeds of this go to aid the Disabled Vets

In Flander's Field
by John McCrae
In Flanders Fields the poppies blow,
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky,
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead.
Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved and now we lie,
In Flanders Fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw,
The torch, be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us, who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow,
In Flanders Fields.

Those are some pretty sweet looking unis. 

Smith03, do you have any season preview information on any of the UMAC teams and also on Trinity Bible (I know their not UMAC, but still)?

[Andras Bacia]

108 days until kickoff........seems like a long time.

So who's the favorite to win this new conference?

I'm thinking Greenville but that's only based on the history between them , Eureka and MacMurray.  I dont think the other teams have played each other before.

[AF4]

I am excited (and i believe the entire Hawk Nation is also)

we have only played LaGrange (W 43-0) and Westminister (W 42-27)
...so have no clue about how we will fair against the other schools

we were 5-5 last yr (losing to 2 7-3 schools in overtime, 2 schools that went to the playoffs, and oshkosh) and we lost a bunch to graduation...so we shall see...

we no the competition will b tough, we play SLIAC members, Hamden-Sydney (ODAC Champ), Muurville, and Faulkner (NAIA)....we hope to b able to compete

keep the faith
