UA Football Game

We went down to Tucson on Saturday to see the UofA play the Idaho Vandels. Maybe the Vandels are the worst team ever, but it was fun to watch the cats kill someone for once. It was any easy drive down to our favorite Mexican food place ever too. We went to El Guerro Canelo before the game. We all had some Carne Asada except for Zane Whiting who had a hot dog. Once we left there we went to the stadium. Once we got there the pagentry and warmups were nice. They had fireworks as the team ran on to the field which scared us all. We were all set for kick off. The UA players were set up for kickoff return. We were very excited. Then it started to storm. They didn't even kick off before the Referees took the players off of the field and the anouncer started saying "For your safety and the safety of the stadium staff please exit the stadium immediatly!" We were disappointed to say the least. We decided to walk over to the McHale center (basketball arean for the wildcats) to look for an ATM. We found a door on the backside of the arena where some kids were milling around. The door was open so we just walked in. We went down a ramp and around a corner then we saw it. Meca for any UA hoops fan. We found ourselves on Lute and Bobbi Olsen Court. It was awesome. We took this picture:

After we milled around the gym for a while, including a guided tour of the weight training area by some really drunk fowl mouthed UA students, we decided to go wait outside for the rain/lighting to stop. We were waiting around for about an hour with some underage drinking baseball players, some other misc. students when we started to notice some rather tall kids coming and going. The first player I recognized was Chase Budinger so I stopped him and shook his hand. This made Drew very upset saying I should have stopped him longer and let Drew meet him. The boys were watching every kid that walked by and saying "Is he on the team? Is he?". Nic Wise came by a little while later and we didn't recognize him at first but then we did. Drew ran into the building and yelled "Nic!" Nic stopped and talked for a few minutes so we took this picture with him.

Soon another starter on the team Jordan Hill came by and Drew stopped him again and took his picture too. Zane and even Alex (ASU Fan) were happy to take this picture because of how tall this guy is.

Overall, despite the rain, lightning and cold wind we all had a good time. UA killed poor Idaho, but it was worth the time. And yes we got to go to El Guerro Canelo (sorry Stacy).

what up

Well I'm really lame. But that's ok. I'm not really blogging anymore. My wife blogs all the time at her blog. I'm not that good. But I've been up to some stuff lately. I'm happy to report I got a new job here within honeywell. I'm moving back to Tempe which is awesome! I'm really happy about that at least. Other things that make me happy is that I'm going to get a real cube and not just a desk in the middle of a room. I'm also happy to be back in a less stressfull (I hope) position. 2.5 years on SAP will kill you. If you don't know, don't ask. I've been interested in the politics of the US too. I'm very happy with McCain's pick of Great white north's Gov! She seems real. For the first time It seems that a candidate for a national office might have actually had to check her checking account before heading out to dinner with the Fam. I'm not sure that she has but perhaps she has, or at least I could believe it if she said she had. I think she looks a little like Tina Fey, whom I find incredibally funny and a little attactive. I don't know, maybe it's just me. I was glad he didn't pick my man Mitt. I have many reasons but here are two. 1) Mitt can run in 2012 if McCain happens to loose or happens to not run at 77 years old. And 2) I'm sick of hearing how Mormons aren't really people and we run around trying to convert others because we are so miserable. I'm just tired. I can use the 4 year recharge period. Otherwise I'm pretty happy about who McCain picked. Since I can't really vote for him, Yeah McCain isn't in my top 10 of choices, I'll vote for the hottest Gov in the 50 states. You know she isn't really hot I guess but she's pretty and very appealing (Smack you Rodam). I'm happy over all about it now, before I was like a chick at the DNC the other night under a glass ceiling, very disenchanted. Barack is so white already, Bill Clinton was the only black guy there talking. I saw an interview with Barack with Stuart Scott of ESPN. It was comical. SS is a total wanna be ebonics speaker (webonics), and Barack's voice sounds like Eddie Murphy making fun of white people. It was very humorus. Rush Limbaugh had a good observation that there were no "persons of african decent" in the lower bowl area of the stadium last night. Too funny.

Well the Hornet's are kicking butt again this year. I feel bad for anyone that get's in our way...Just kidding. Though we are looking good. Drew and Zane and little Bulldog are really looking good. We have Ray, Mondo and Alex that are returning from last year and doing well. Even little AJ, lonely w/o Sky is doing well. The race is on now that Sky went to the longhorns between him and Drew who will get the most TD's this year. However my bet is on Sky due to opportunities. Sky is the RB and LB for his team. He got two TDs in the scrimmage the other night. Nice. Drew got one in his first scrimmage. We are all enjoying it. Games are right around the corner. Here's a quick vid. Sky's #11
