This is good, yeah?
Hell of a performance by your son today. Congrats.Finally a night game !!!
Pick one:
- I have to rake leaves
- My kids have soccer
- My wife accepted an invitation to a wedding
- I live 1700 miles away
- Writers choice: __________________
Actually, though I live 1700 miles away, I will be watching. NCState is going down two weeks in a row!
Well, after we fly back from the wedding my wife told me we have to go to in Kingston, Jamaica (1726 miles away from Syracuse), I was signed up to rake leaves off of my kids soccer field for games early Sunday morning. Then we have a Halloween party (couples costumes).
None of those are true, obviously, but I felt that a challenge was issued!
I was just thinking I would make my annual pilgrimage, although being in VT means my trip is much shorter. So I ask myself, what else is happening next week and can I skip it to attend the game?WINNER!
Love the response. I was just preparing everyone's (myself included) excuses early to get it out of the way. I live in the Houston metro, I am 1700 miles away and cannot get to the game.

My 18th wedding anniversary is Saturday and it was my idea to go out with friends to hear a yacht rock band. And the wife is now insisting we wear appropriate outfits (I ain't calling them costumes).
Maybe we should just split up this week...
Unfortunately mine's all true though.Not as original as SUinHershey's, but more draconian.
There has yet to be a kickoff time that pleased everyone. But I like a night game.
Assuming they’re local. I live 2 hrs away. There’s a scarcity of rooms due to family weekend. Logistical nightmare. Not sure I’ll be making the trek. Hope the locals come out.All the family types can get their kid stuff done and still make the game.
