UM vs. UConn

We begin the season with the Huskies of UConn. UConn? you might wonder. Its not basketball season. Yeah - apparently they have football too.

The big question of the young season is "Who's the starting QB?" that would be answered soon.

The tailgate started with heavy hearts as we are missing Sheriff Lora. She will be missed.

Anyhoo - the tailgate today is without our cook - Reggie is off playing softball and left us on our own.

The team today is being led by Brock Mealer - older brother of OL Elliott Mealer. He was told after his accident that he had a 1% chance of walking again. He did so with crutches. God Bless him!

Our starting QB? Denard Robinson. We'll see how this little experiment goes. It can't be worse than last year.

We go on to beat UConn 30-10. Next week - its the Golden Domers of Notre Dame. GO BLUE!

Even the pilots know who's in charge

Hail to The Victors!





RIP Lora

This is written with the heaviest of hearts. On August 25, 2010, God decided that he needed a new angel and He chose to take Lora to Heaven. She had been sick for some time and though we knew this would happen, we were absolutely stunned when it did. She was our Sheriff and more importantly, she was our friend.

You will be honoured at every tailgate as long as we continue. We will never forget you. Thank you for your friendship.

We look forward to seeing you again one day.

One of Lora's favorite pictures of Austi - he couldn't decide if he wanted to sit down or stand - so he opted for both.
