And I'll be there to referree if necessary. Just kidding- BG actually is a nice guy in person. I've almost never wanted to hurt him. :-P I've got to remember to bring my camera. This could be historic, like witnessing the signing…

Can't make this Friday but Greg and I are making our own long weekend on the 17th-19th and going to both the PDL game on the Friday and the Reserves on the Sunday. :-)

No, I don't remember what it was called. I've heard of that one though- I have a co-worker who was selling it for a while. They were going to make a million dollars. Surprise surprise, they didn't. And her husband is actually a ve…

Agree. We were invited to dinner by a longtime friend/former co-worker of Greg's and the guy's new girlfriend, whom we'd already met and liked. Had a fabulous dinner, lots of good conversation, etc. and then she brought out the mira…

Heritage Classic at BC Place= New turf?
I didn't see it in the actual broadcast either. Greg and I were commenting that it would have been useful b/c we could barely see the ball.

Anyone else going to the game on Sunday? Assuming we can get up early enough, Greg and I will be there (not coming up for the game Saturday, so we'll have a 3.5 hr. drive before the 11 a.m. game Sunday- bleah).

I was just going to ask that. I'm hoping you all had a good enough time to do a repeat on Sept. 14th so I won't be the only one there. ;-)

Pretty much all of the 100-level stands for the whole game. 200-level, it depends on the section but generally sitting except when the action gets close to a goal. TBH I've never really noticed what they do in the Hawk's Nest.

They charge more for "premium" games.

^ OK, thanks for the info. Greg and I will probably drive up for the Reserves match on April 14th so that'll be a good test, since we'll probably get there right before the game starts (going to have to leave by 7:30 as it is to make an 1…

Thanks, now I can make some motel reservations. For those who have been there, Thunderbird Stadium has ample parking? If not I can probably figure out a bus route. Also just a note if you're coming down for Sounders U-23 v. Vancouver on June…

FYI: The Sounders put the Timbers Army all in the 300 level last night, instead of having some in 100/101/102 and the rest above them in 300 and 301 like last season. Presumably that's what they'll do with you all as well. You'll ha…

Anyone here watch the NBC TV show Grimm (besides GoF)? They have a quote at the beginning of each show. Lookie what it was on Friday! Bizarre coincidence, no? Edited to add photo because I'm tired, dang it! :-P

Would be nice if the Mariners would move their game to afternoon but I doubt that would happen. Ugh, they're playing the Yankees that night too, so it'll be packed. Guess that gives me an excuse to hang out with you guys after the game s…
