Yes, I am female. And everything else I have said/posted is pretty much me. I AM a Huskie Football Addict so my name fits me to a T.

Now as for the other thing about Akeem... I don't know specifically what his toe problem is and I don't know exactly when his surgery was. I really don't even know FOR SURE that Iowa is out of the question. BUT, don't you think Coach Carey will have a plan for this if Akeem can't play? Not time to panic yet.
And MD...PLEASE don't go getting all crazed and super pessimistic on us, ok?

Guys, please don't let my being female change your attitude about me.

Dont worry I caught myself in time this time before a complete meltdown.

Actually, I was thinking about that all the way home...all 2 + hours of the drive! My sons would have LOVED doing this. They love football but are not the athletic type. All 3 of my boys did music as extra curriculars. I think there are a lot of guys who would have had a good time doing this.
I was jealous of the x's & o's with the pros that the men got...but now that I've done football 101 I think it was a lot more fun.

HFA - and you thought this wouldn't generate a lot of comments! You had a great report, a big scoop on AD (I wonder if the coach wishes that hadn't gotten out since I'm sure Ferentz reads the Dog Pound) and even a spin-off thread. A pretty good day's work. How did the scoreboard look?

If Carey didn't want the news about AD to get out, he wouldn't have let AD attend Football 101.

I figured that out like a year ago. Actually reading her posts would help with that. for example "my husband and I", etc.

Sorry I didn't have the sarcasm meter on. That's why I added the Ferentz thing.

Righto Bob! And we all know how women...ahem...like to talk.

The scoreboard looked...black! However, I can also tell you guys that the old movie theater lot (next to Lincolnshire Apts.) currently known as the "Spirit"lot...was fenced off and completely dug up. I have no idea what may be going on there. I didn't seem to me that it was in need of repaving the last time I parked there - year before last.
Thanks for saying I had a great report. 04-cheers

Nice. Anything to make the experience better I am for. Good thing I got the pass this year.

How many ladies there were in their mid to late 20s? My girlfriend expressed interest in going next year after I told her about it. I don't want to throw her out there with a bunch of cougars in their 30s-60s haha.
