  1. Let's not forget that the local area HSFB games have been moved to Saturday if I'm not mistaken due to the RNC. I think this may have a small impact on the attendance as well as it being UT Chat as well. My guess is under 30K.

    The Jesuit Plant game will be starting at 8pm one block down on Himes Ave. I'm a Jesuit alum and my son just started there as a freshman. I would have liked to have gone to this game, but no way am I missing the opener for our Bulls.

    Let's get the party started. Go Bulls!

  2. Hey E.T.-

    I'm one of those old alums you were hammering, class of '86, circa Charlie Bradley and Tommy Tonelli.  When I was there, school spirit was non-existent.  After graduating from USF, I went to UF for a couple of years of doctoral work and never finished, but became a huge Gator fan.  It's hard not to become a Gator fan while living in Gainesville and having no previous loyalty to any program.  To this day I am still a Gator fan.  However, the Bulls are #1 now.  Next year I'm going to join the Bulls club and get season tickets.  This process of growing the fan base will take time and as the current students graduate with the experience of big time college football they will stay loyal and support the university.  This is how it works.  And of course winning helps.  Hear that CJL.

    Go Bulls!

  3. Start by watching the Bucs play the Falcons, then we'll attend the 4 pm Christmas Eve childrens Mass.  After that we'll head to my in laws for the traditional Christmas Eve dinner, including roast pig, black beans and rice, yuca and plenty of libations.  Open presents Christmas morning, have parents and in-laws over for breakfast.  Then head to my aunts for Christmas day open house.  Come home and pack for Las Vegas, while my kids pack to go to NC with my parents for the Bulls thrashing of the Wolfpack.
