Anyone else in Section 105, near row 58? Any good tailgates? My daughter and I will fly in from DFW after my son, who plays for Northwest (Haha) wins his playoff game. We don''t get in until 1:50, but I'm hoping all runs smoothly. Let me brag about my boy to pad the word count. First grade, full contact football, his team, the Northwest Texans, are 8 and Oh. Margin of victory, 238 to 18.

I hope his daughter is six years old

But if he is knocking on your door
Open it, because you probably need and deserve to go to jail, otherwise, the Cops will use a battering ram to open the door for you.

We're in section 104, row 8
RUTS, our crew, and I are tailgating at Garrett Church with the PSU Chicago alum association. All you can drink for $15 (10 if you buy in advance.)

Section 104 or 105
My wife and I are also in section 104 or 105, I think around row 14 (don’t have the tickets with me at the moment, but remember seats were close to the field around the 5 yard line). But if this is like the other NW games I’ve attended, you can pretty much sit anywhere you like.
We also plan on stopping by the Chicago Chapter tailgate.

Section 103, row 8
I’ll likely be at that tailgate as well. And I’ll probably be one of the few (if only) people wearing a Penn State Icers hoodie. (Yeah, I know – surprising isn’t it?)

Has Mack Brown visited your house yet?
I understand he has his 2021 recruiting class wrapped up already.

I wonder if he’s scouting fetuses yet, getting film of ultrasounds and sending offers to the expecting parents.

When are the twins arriving?
Start enjoying your sleep now, cause when that day gets here….

When do you sleep?
Do you work from home? Ours don’t arrive til March; ‘due date’ is 3/29, but I’m just hoping they wait until March.

I sleep plenty now – my twins are 6 and I have 2 older kids. But none of my kids really slept well until they were 2 – they were always afraid they were missing out on something. It was torture! I would have committed to all sorts of unsolved crimes just for the chance to sleep a whole night. And I occassionally can work from home, but not so much work usually happens when the school bus returns the kids to home.
Good luck getting close to that due date – you really want those buns to bake as long as possible before they come out of the oven. My wife was miserable as hell but still made it to 37 wks.

Have you already started playing Fight on State to them via headphones on your wife’s tummy?

Running up the score in first grade football?

Also
what percentage of the teams in the league are named either the “Texans” or the “Cowboys”; I’m guessing 75.
Beat Northwestern.

there’s probably a couple still named the Oilers

In all seriousness
If there are 10 teams in the league, I’d be dissappointed if we haven’t got at least 7 of the names down.

Holy Hullstache,Batman
Haha,you guys are so much help. Let me see if I can keep up.
1. She’s gorgeous, 17, and I’m a good sport,, but she can now shoot a beer-bellied pervert from about 800 yards. Big targets,you know. It is the law here that she learn to shoot. The end of the gun barrel will be hot. Oh,and she plans to attend PSU next year. If any of you clowns are caught ogling a certain Lionette, my wife, not a good sport and a NY Italian. Your future, fuggedaboutit.
2. joetothep, I’m not sure whom that is. It looks like Randy Travis.
3. Garret Church sounds great. I will try to make that. I don’t know about all you can drink. I’d love to participate, but I don’t think I can talk her into driving the rental.
4. Mack Brown was banned. I’m hoping for a walk on linebacker spot if we are still down here in Nintendoland.
5. Running up the score? A little, I suppose, but only on certain teams. They shut off the scoreboard once a team is up by 30. We also allowed one team to score, as they had not scored all year. We put non-skill players in skill positions many times for the experience, but, if there was a head coach with a poor reputation, I’m afraid we might not have been so magnanimous. We have one kid, if he has the ball, will score every time. When we play shark tank, he is never solo tackled. Those moves can not be taught. Our head coach actually went to Iowa, so,yes, I heard a rash of @%#$ the following Monday at practice, but not from him, from the UT fans. He is a good guy and really cares about the kids.
6. Eight teams in the league,and two are named Texans, because they both feed into the same high school, the Northwest Texans. We are Texans Navy and the other team is Texans white. The other teams are the Bobcats, Porcupines, Eagles, Hornets, and the Lions White and Black. How did you do? Oh, yeah, no Rainbows. You can’t associate with anything with such implications in Texas.
7. Here’s the boy. Look for him in 2021.
8. Here is the high school football stadium. Our game is there tomorrow morning at 8.
You guys are great. See you in Evanston.

+1 for all of response 1, and another +1 for Porcupines.

That dude
is Chris Hansen, the host of NBC’s To Catch a Predator. Intended as a warning to baconway asking about your daughter before he knew her age.
But now that he does, all he has to do is wait out a few more months, avoiding a beer belly, and start shopping for a bulletproof vest.
Have fun this weekend in chitown. Would have loved to have been out there with you all. Go Lions!

I’ve seen that show once. I love the excuses these guys with alcohol, condoms, and whatever else come up with. You’d think by now everyone would assume that any 14 year old who consents to meeting a 40 year old guy is going to be Johnny Law. Perverted and stupid is no way to go through life. It’s going to be a great game. Anyone staying in Skokie?the bulletproof vest won’t stop the mother. You need anti-Guinea armor and an anti-vise helmet. I always knew my daughter was safe as the Seńora would leap over my cold, dead body to destroy anyone in her path.

I’m in that stadium right now. The Trinity Trojans, ugh, just did the haka. They were state champs last year. A bunch of Samoans and Tongans. They just burned our D Backs with a play action, for a 60 yard touchdown strike. It’s going to be a long night.
