I just received an email from the John Cook School of Business saying they still had tickets available for Saturday's game and pre-game reception.

For what it's worth Major League Baseball is requiring metal detectors for next year.

Didn't the same beer cost $6.50 last year?

I don't believe there were any students there who weren't in the band.

I think you are thinking of gifts for membership in the Tipoff Club/Billiken Club.

If they would only give a free beer instead of the free soda.

What's wrong with SLU? I received my tickets today. They are at least 10 days early. Look great.

They showed up at SLU because they walked there from a protest on Vandeventer. Wash U may not have many African Americans but it far from be the whitest school around. The Asian population there is huge. This is a university that had a protest and sit in over Peabody Coal. They would have been welcomed with open arms.

It's a good thing your on this board Joe because you are correct. I think he owned Lucious Boomers and some other Landing Bar. Not sure if he's still here but was not to long ago.

If my old memory serves it was Clark's before Fridays. Before that it was Usselmans sandwich shop.

Just took a bike ride to the clock tower. There were 3 tents still there and maybe 15 people sitting in the stands. Looked awfully boring.

History says we will be lucky to have them by the expo game.

I think kshoe might have been right. They waited for baseball to end.

I was at a business dinner last week with a couple of guys from Witchita Kansas . Somehow Billiken Basketball came up. They knew Jeff Reid and said he was doing well. Graduated from college and was looking for a job.

Suppose to be out soon. Should be very good.

Congradulations to Billikan on being named the new Chairman of SLU's Board of Trustees. I guess maybe this board might now believe he was an insider.

The big Billiken in the sky is pulling for you.

I'm not sure how to describe BillyLou. This was a Ekker special. Kind of had a head that sort of looked like a Billiken on a Big Bird body. When Ekker was fired he took BillyLou with him.

The old billiken in my day was someone in a tuxedo wearing a paper-mâché head. The head looked like the statue in front of the Fez.

Maybe they should bring back Billy Lou?

I remember it being close for awhile.

I agree. Comes across as smug. For me this grouping works better then some of his previous partners.

Disagree. The biggest question mark is the center position,or can Manning stay on the floor.

Nope. I saw him last night. KSDK must be having tryouts. So many new faces.

Clock you point out some good things. I hope your right about another great year. I just hope it doesn't take a year to put the pieces together.
