I thought they normally left for games like this on Thursday afternoon, but I wasn't quite sure. I think that if we can find out the exact time that they are leaving, we should go out there and cheer the team on with signs of support. Thoughts?

I think it's a great idea. That would be great to see that for all road games!

The team bus loads at Ford at 11:45am Friday morning and departs at noon. It would be a great for as many fans as possible to be there to cheer them on! For those of you who will be in New Orleans, the team bus will depart the Wyndham Hotel at Canal Place at 3:50pm Saturday for the Superdome; we will have a group that cheers as they get on the bus there too, so please join us.

I know it sucks for me to encourage this idea and then to say that I won't be there, but, alas, I'll already be out of town. I encourage everybody that can make it there to go. I'll even make you some signs to use for this week if you want. I will be there next week for sure to send the team off for the UTEP game.

Thanks, Mr. P!
Hope your boys have a great game up front, keeping Willis in one piece and opening lanes for Mapps and Dorsey!

Gee Mr. Poynter. We used to say that exact statement in the 60's as we loaded into the VW van.
