KICK-OFF LUNCHEON

by **BUS** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 8:51 pm

Over 850 and that is whithout the football team. Total attendance over 960.

Greg Gardner did a FANtastic job and he is a good person. Needs to settle down and get married, have 2.3 kids, soccer practice etc...but he is genuine.

His quest for all... coaches, players, teachers, administration and fans is... do a little more. If we all do just a little more just think where we might be at seasons end.

Very motivational.
Thanks Greg for what you do for and with SMU.

Did anyone else feel the collective groan go through the room when JJ announced that he thinks it's "likely" that all 4 QBs will play this season?

Actually those were the beans settling in everyone's stomachs.

Those "beans" looked horrible...I didn't touch them.

No, I wasn't, so you may be right. I was speaking more to his attitude throughout his time here. He always came off as overconfident to me.

BUS- why do you want to curse the President of the Mustang Club like that? In my business, we call that putting a contract out on somebody! :wink:

Mr. Statler: I was referring to the FRONT ROW of instrumentalists in the pic but, yes, there are others in the background. Your keen eye never misses a beat, does it? Say 'hello' to Waldorf.
