TAILGATING. Is it a tradition for you?

Tailgating, what does it mean to you? For some it's a party before a game and for others, it's a chance to experience the football game without being inside the stadium. So why are some trying to ban it? In the ESPN column Reilly has written his mentions that some are worried that these tailgaters drink to much and then are let back onto the roads. But Reilly says, then breathalyz everyone leaving the game, if they blow .08+ don't let them drive. What's the difference right? Do you feel the same way, should tailgating for those not attending the game be allowed?

Both Alberta teams go head to head once again this season, who will you be voting for? Do you go out to watch the game with a big group of friends, stay in and have people over? Do you make bets, or play trivia?
Well whatever it is that you like to do, get ready cause it's going to be a great game.

College Football-

Sunday morning students fled a building when a fire alarm was pulled. Normal right? For two individules it wasn't. Jasper Howard, a Connecticut football play, and Brian Parker, were stabbed outside after the fire alarm was pulled. It was said that a fight broke out between two groups of people. Parker was let go from the hospital, however, Howard was pronounced dead after taking a stab to the abdomen.
Coach Edsall was torn whether or not to cancel this weeks game, but said he knew that isn't was Howard would have wanted. Was he right in this decision? The team decided to wear Howard's initals on the back of their helmets and take his jersey to each game for the rest of the season for support.

I wish all the best to Connecitcut and his family. Have a good season UConn. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4576659

The link at the end is going to show just his top ten goals of last year out of the 56 he scored.
