[NU Sports] Meineke Bowl

[neonrye at aol.com]

Glad to hear it, and good to hear from you, Harry.  Remember, guys (and gals), it's an early game--so don't party too much or too late.:-)

Forgive me Coach Roy and others who lean right politically, but I can't get Rick Perry out of my mind whenever I see the "ATM" logo.   It gives me a little added incentive to want to crush the Aggies tomorrow.    I want to shut the former "Yell Leader's" yap once and for all.  By the way, why is it that A & M calls their cheerleaders "Yell Leaders" when the rest of the civilized world doesn't?

It is time for Fitz and his "Young Men" to have their "One Shining Moment" (Oops, dreaming about going to "the Dance" again:-)).

Go U NU!

ey Listers,
Is anybody out there?  Where are all of the emails I was expecting to read on 
he eve of our big bowl game?   It has been so quiet I thought maybe I was 
omehow thrown off of the List.
I have no prediction to make, other than to say that I would love to see us get 
ff to a good start for a change in a bowl game.  Other than the Sun Bowl vs. 
CLA and the Alamo Bowl vs. Mizzou, I can't remember us breaking in front.  
sually we get down by at least 2 TD's before we remember why we are there.  I 
now that A & M ihas proved to be a first-half terror, second-half dog this 
ear, but I would hate to count on a late comeback against a team that, at least 
n paper, seems to have a decided edge in talent and probably depth.  
We need a big game tomorrow out of our Special Teamers, especially Venric Mark, 
s field position will be very important.  If Danny P. has a short field to work 
ith, he will put a lot of points up, and it will ease the pressure on our 
unning attack.
I will be watching the game at our traditional NYC suburban gathering at Buffalo 
ild Wings in Stamford, CT.  The University has taken our email "invitation" and 
xtended it to incoming freshmen recently accepted as "Early Decision" 
andidates.  I am "hosting" the event, pinch-hitting for Ken Monroe, who has 
one a superb job building our group to an established gig, and who will be in 
hicago for the game.   I am looking forward to teaching the new kids "Go U 
orthwestern", which, of course, we sing after every 'Cat score (lubricated with 
Purple Shots" to celebrate).  Hopefully, those of you in Houston we hear our 
oices raised in song throughout the day.  Please root them home.  It's time to 
nd the drought.
Go 'Cats!  And Happy New Year (which it will especially be, if there is a Purple 
elebration when the Fourth Quarter ends).
