When and where is this taking place saturday?  We live here in Mobile and may get out to it if we can.  Unfortunately, that's Opening Day for Little League here so all depends on the details if we can make it.

Anyone got a link to the event?  details?

Let's hope we win both!

Just got back from the Rugby match where it was a tough game.  Was 0-0 forever, we then went up 6-0 but they scored right back to 6-5.  The second half we took charge and ended up winning 25-5.  Was a GREAT experience.  If you guys ever have a chance to watch these guys, you will really enjoy it.  Had a great time talking to Chris Jackson's parents as well as Justin's dad, Psycho and saw some great hits by "house" and one hell of a tackle by Cappie I think they call him to turn the tide in the match early on.  Kid can fly.

I got a ton of great pictures.  Not much time before my son's baseball game, but will get them up as I can over the weekend.  Will try to make the championship game tomorrow before his baseball again, so we'll see. 

Thanks to David **** for helping plug us in and everyone associated with team all the way to Coach Campbell allowing Hunter to get a pic with the team. 

Go Bulls...

[Ricky the Bull]

Thanks for the update!  Are you going to be able to make the championship game tomorrow?  They are supposed to play the winner of the Vandy/ECU game.

If they win the championship game, the finals championship is going to be in Sanford on April 16/17.  Road trip, anyone?

Go Bulls!

[Ruger7mmmag]

We're going to try.  Hunter has baseball at 2pm, so we're going to try.  Think the championship game is at 11am.  If so, we're going to be there.

[Guest nybullsfan]

Thanks for the news Ruger, way to go Bulls, welcome to the Elite Eight!

Yuppers, tomorrow's game is at 11 AM. Win it and we're in the Final Four!

I don't know the "terms" for everything, so forgive me ignorance trying to describe the pics. 

Pre Game, getting their jerseys.

Pre Game huddling up.

MTSU player gets "bloodied up" so he has to come out (2nd half)

"House" comes out.  Man does this guy lay the wood.  Hope the hotel they have the team staying at takes animals!  What a beast.
