That's right!! My goof! I'm such a dimwit at times! And I just got through reading it earlier.

It's been a tough week for me. My car's alternator went Monday night. I had to walk a mile to get home then had to walk a pretty good distance to get the part the next day. It's a good thing that I was able to catch a bus on the way back.

That's a rough one! You're good to go now?

Yes, so far so good. Now all I have to do is replace a bad outer tie rod on the driver's side and then get a re-alignment done.

Ouch! That's a surprising loss.

Actually, the Bulldogs are not as bad as their record shows them to be. They were one of the top teams in the WAC last season.

Hey, sorry to read about your car troubles. On the other hand, I'm enjoying following your dynasty, as always!

Looks like your first year at Boise State may be similar to my first year at UTM. How is your recruitung going? This may be more important at the mid-major level than it was at VMI.

It just hasn't been my week car wise either. Some dumb moron (have you ever heard of a smart moron) let the air out of both tires on the passenger side while I was at the library on Tuesday. It was a good thing that I only had to drive about a football field length to get to the nearest gas station.

I should be playing the game against SJSU tomorrow. I'll jot down the scholorship offered recruits and the top 10 based on interest.

I was blessed with a young and talented squad at VMI and didn't need to do much recruiting, although it was kind of tough to bring players in.

I did briefly last night, but just to take a quick glance and a drink of water from the water cooler/fountain/whatever.
