Does anyone know if the Boise St. game is going to be available in our area?
Also, I'm curious; How many FW based Falcons are out there following this site?
Gimme some lovin.

As far as availability is concerned, I've heard/read that the game will be shown on ESPN game plan. Also, what I have done in the past, is to go to Wrigley Field and ask Carl to find it for me. Great place to enjoy a beverage & a burger and he always seems willing to try and help. The man has 17 dishes after all.
Secondly, count 3 true fans and about 4-5 of my son's friends as "part-time" rooters for our orange and brown!!
Roll along!!

I guess I could try Wrigley since it is only 2 miles from my house. Maybe we could gang up on Carl and make it a worth his time.

Adrien Spencer and Ryan Sims are from the Fort. You might want to check if there is an alumni group in Fort Wayne. BGSU.edu alumni site might have something. There is a decent size alumni group in Indianapolis 120 miles southwest.

Thank you. I'm was aware of the existance of the Indy group although I have not made contact. I probably should start there.
I was not aware of Spencer and Sims and that is sad, and I am willing to admit that I have ground to make up as a Falcon fan. You can expect a better effort from me in the future.

The Boise State game will definitely be on the ESPN Game Plan. I plan on purchasing that bad boy if it isn't on the "Free" ESPN channels.
Now, I gotta find a way to get the WY game...that will be on the Mountain West Conf channel.
ROLL MN!

Thanks Freak! There will be at least one guy at Wrigley(in FW) wearing orange. And looking for a guy named Carl.

I like Fort Wayne, it is a nice town. I ended up sitting behind Sims family at the BG/BSU game that is how I found out he was from Fort Wayne.

If you're setup with an ISP that carries ESPN360.com, then you can always watch the Boise game for free instead of forking over the Gameplan charge.

Thanks for the tip, UK. Gotta look into that.
