The 8th Man is always down for forthy liquid concoctions of the adult persuasion! Might be tough for me since I have visiting realtives but I'm sure you'll have some takers. I'll definitely be pregaming a little bit Sat. Some of the 8th Man might be pregaming already!!! lol

Only one not confirmed is Mo, I am sure he will be there, but he has not been at practice. Last night was a lot of going through all the rules, the big difference will be "The QB box".

From the film I have seen Rutherford looks like a pretty good QB, big guy too. #31 on the defense looks to be one hell of a corner. This should be a lot of fun, I hope they play starters, I know it is asking a lot when playoffs are coming. I hope we learn the rules fast enough , a lot of things are different. It will be interesting to see how they handle the speed of our defense. Kalfez should be a huge factor(Although have not heard about his knee injury). Porter and Joyner could have big days because these teams are not used to seeing teams run the ball the way we do. Looking forward to it, any fans coming from Erie find us at Nathaniel's before the game or in section 122(Right next to your bench)

I believe the team bus will be departing Erie after 8am, so the smurf, scooter and I will be there around 11 or Noon.

I have a feeling we will have to extra block off that section for this game because people are going to want to be right down in front

The way everything went down, a lot of people are writing off indoor football Before the move to the AIFA, on average, what was the Raiders attendance for their home games?

Barto claimed 2,700 - I know the eyeball figures from fans, including a number of them on here, don't reach that.
Even so, I doubt we see that many people for any of their games from here on out this year. The Raiders have an awful lot of goodwill work to do to get fans to care again.
