Members,

Hope you made it through the winter in fine shape as the END is right around the corner.

The football season was a lot better than most EXPERTS predicted, IF we could have played decent ball in Oakland-Phoenix-or Cincy & even the second Steelers game we would have been in the playoffs but it wasn’t meant to be & with the schedule for the 2008 season it will be tough to win 10 games again unless we improve our DEFENSE

______________________________________________________________________

Also the tickets prices for the 2008 season went up in the Dawg Pound from $40 to $50 & the opposite endzone went from $40 to $45. Our bus trips will probably go up to $70 instead of $65 but it depends on the increase from Bliss Charters for the rental of their buses.

We want to thank Amy Martinez for job well done at the Xmas party for the kids as this was the 3rd year she has taken over, again thanks Amy to you & your staff.
