The game on the 10th should be a star-studded affair. Turner has to be there and I would assume the Cowboy, J-Mac and the others will be around for the game too.
Anybody know?

Most likely because remember all of the top 50 players will be honored during a home game this year.

The former player typically hang out in the Yordin Center or the IPC don't they? I haven't seen many of them in the stands in the past.

Bump reminder (should have done it yesterday).
Too bad MLB didn't coordinate playoff game times with NIU, but I already signed up for this and am going.

Nice video tribute tonight for Diesel. Tom was introduced, given a Huskie football helmet by SF, and it was announced by Bill Baker that Tom and family will be honorary captains at homecoming.

He was not introduced, so probably not. I could be wrong.

Congrats to Tom and family. Well deserved. Any chance the Diesel tribute and/or the induction ceremony will be put online?

Burner coming out with the flame hat was awesome. Great sense of humor.
