Another layer for the build-up.   Can't wait myself, although the idiots at AYSO scheduled my daughter's soccer game at kickoff.

Same with my daughter's game So.Cal...then their "party" is after at Build-A-Bear at Disneyland.  Ugh.

Isn't that within walking distance of the ESPN Zone?  Take a long bathroom break.

Yes it is, but I will get the evil stink eye from my wife that could turn me into vapor if I even attempt that one.  That's why God created TiVo!

Bo was truly a great man.  I knew him when I worked at U of M athletic department in the 80's.  Behind his gruff exterior was a sweet guy.  He knew I went to marquette and always had wise ass comments to make about Al, who he was good  >:(friends with.  It is  a sad day for the Maize and Blue.  My prayers are with his family--may he rest in peace.
