 Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.

[wesleydad]

time to play jeopardy, what do phila, phila, raliegh, tampa bay, and austin have in common?


they are the cities i ended up in today on my trip to temple, texas for this weekends game.  we spent 2 hours sitting on the plane in philly waiting for clearance from the faa to fly out due to a dent in a door.  the delay would cause us to miss our connecting flight in nashville so we had to get off the plane, get put on another flight which took us to raliegh and tampa on the way to austin.  instead of arriving at 1200 we got to austin at 5, 13 hours from when we got on the first plane in philly.

no matter, we are here and looking forward to saturday.  the team arrived around 730 and the boys will have a little edge to them for practice tomorrow since nothing is open for them to get any food

happy thanksgiving to all.

Amen!!  Wow, what people have to go through to see a game, hehehehehe.....  Well, I hope you yell your guts out for us.  I will be listening!  I'm happy the team got there to get a day of practice in.  I have a feeling that they will be stretching those scoring legs out during the game.

Whataburger was open.

conrad, so was IHOP.  nothing better than enjoying a nice thanksgiving meal with other travelers looking for anything to eat.

nice article on the rivalry.

will you be at the team reception today?  we are staying at the super8, right off of I35, about 3 miles from mary hardin baylor.  i am not sure about places to hit after it around that hotel, but there is a bj's brewhouse right up the road from out hotel that we may hit later.

teamski and pawesley, i may do a little screaming, but not sure if it will make the pressbox.  hopefully, conrad will keep you posted on the enthusiasm of the wesley faithfull who have made the trip.  as far as i know lano's dad and brother are here, so we can probably make a little noise.

latest weather update, partly sunny with temps in the 60's for gametime.  should be good football weather, not too hot or cold.

i will report back later tonight with the mood of the team after the president's reception.

i have been surprized by the relative lack of bantor for this game from the umhb folks this year.  last year they were very vocal in their opinions about the game.  i mentioned it on their site and got a "cautious optimism" explanation.  it seems that they are not as confident in their team or maybe they have finally grown to respect wesley as a program equal to theirs as far as national recognition goes.  maybe things will heat up today.

Go Wolverines,

Give'm he**.Wesleydad and family, enjoy each moment.D3 is the ultimate sports experience.
I liked the article and would love to see an article with a reprto on Beavers and Jackson running wild,
together with some good qb hustling. I am confident theat the defense is ready to shut the door on UMHB.
This is your time...if the boys want it bad enough..they will go and take it...nobody gives you anything
on a football field...GO WOLVERINES!!!!!

Thanks about the article.

I will be at the reception, saw the 'brewhouse,' got excited but then it was closed.   Maybe tonight.

Team flight went smoothly. The team mood last night was hungry, literally.

Conrad,

Looking forward to your broadcast with baited anticipation!!   I'm getting stoked. 

Go Wolverines!!!!!  8)

well, here we are 1030 and ready to go.  i mean at night, ready to go to bed.  the team is ready, the reception was nice, props to the president for having it and being here for the game, not many other presidents would do that.  i think wesley is better and will win the game unless they turn the ball over.  there is something missing from this umhb team compared to the last couple and i think it will show tomorrow.

mule, thanks for the props, we will give em whatever we can while we are here.

teamski, the broadcast will be fun as you listen to wesley score enough to win.

we plan on being at the field around 10 to show the umhb folk how to travel and still have a little tailgate, they didnt do much last year even after we invited them to stop by,  we dont need no stinkin invite.

enjoy the win.

[Teamski]

Enjoy the game Wesleydad.   Do us proud on the tailgating front!

GAME DAY      GAME DAY       GAME DAY

IT IS TIME FOR THE GAME TO BEGIN, WELL IN ABOUT 4 HOURS.  THE WEATHER IS GOING TO BE GOOD, LOW 60'S, SUNNY WITH A LIGHT WIND.

I THINK WESLEY WINS THIS GAME.  UMHB RELIED ON A HALF BACK OPTION PASS AND A KICKOFF RETURN FOR 2 OF THEIR TOUCHDOWNS LAST WEEK.  THOSE THINGS DONT GENERALLY HAPPEN WEEK TO WEEK SO I DONT THINK THEY WILL BE ABLE TO DO MUCH AGAINST THE DEFENSE.  IF THERE WAS ONE THING OBVIOUS LAST WEEK, THE OFFENSE PLAYED IT CLOSE TO THE VEST, WEATHER OR DECISION, EITHER WAY NOT MUCH AGAINST THE MULES.  IF THAT IS THE SAME GAME PLAN THEN THIS WILL BE A QUICK LOW SCORING GAME.  THE OFFENSE HAS TO BE OPENED UP WITH SOME MEDIUM PASSES OR UMHB WILL CROWD THE LINE AND NOT GIVE UP ANYTHING SHORT AND WESLEY WILL STRUGGLE TO MOVE THE BALL.  I DONT THINK UMHB WILL VARY THEIR KICKING GAME EXCEPT TO KICK IT AWAY FROM BEAVERS, NO SQUIBS OR POOCHES.  THEY ARE GOOD AGAINST RETURNS.  NO TURNOVERS AND WESLEY WINS IN A LOWER SCORING GAME THAN MOST THINK, 21 - 13.

[wesleydad]

time to go, off to walmart to get some grub and then to the field.  enjoy listening to the game and about 400 et we will know the fate of the boys.  out of here.

Good luck to Wesley today...

Since my neice is a student, I have "reluctantly" become a Wesley fan (although not against WU  ....)

Bring it home....
