Tony,
Are you going to Penn State? It will be colder than Kyle Korver up there!
Congrats to the MU Women's Soccer team...
Tony,
It's Bernie G. in Philly formerly of MC...oops, I mean MU.
Keep up the good work and I hope to see you at a basketball game soon.
Have a nice Thanksgiving!
Bernie
You enticed me to look up Korver's stats..shooting 35 % from 3 and the team a whopping 28 percent from 3...brrrr.
It prob won't be that cold..but I won't be going. Friday night is HS fball and - to the Press - the only thing more important than HS football is, well ----nothing!
I doubt if we're sending anyone, though that's not official.
Had it been RU or maybe even as close as UConn than maybe..but a moot point now....
Bernie...you too. !!!
