I'll miss the enthusiasm with which GoGo played the game. He played hard and he played to win. Aggravating at times, but fun to watch. ARam kind of grew on me. He's another guy who played hard, but in a different way from GoGo. Fiers put up some very good numbers around the off-the-field things he had to deal with a couple of years ago. I enjoyed watching him develop. Best wishes to all three of them.

There are lots of blogs/resources on-line with tips to make your visit as awesome as possible, including tips for traveling with kids. Off-hand, I can't think of specific sites, but I know they're out there. We went last year (no children, though)--my sister and mom did all of the planning for us.

I loved the original series, as weird as it was. I'm excited at new episodes, but also wary, since it's been so long.

It was a nice treat at the end of a long day at school. While the song is now almost everywhere, it was a fun video to watch, and fun to see the guys relaxed.

I had a similar thought about Wacha, but, since he's on the "wrong" team, he can't be Fozzy.

I kind of agree with rwa12--GoGo as Gonzo, but I'm not quite sure why.

So, as I'm watching the game the other night (the one when Scooter had a great game), I realize that, every time I hear "Scooter", I start picturing the Muppets. Then, after the game, I ask hubby, "So, if we have a Scooter now, who on the team is Kermit?" His response, "Shouldn't you be asking who's Dr. Teeth, since Scooter was their manager?" So I put the expanded question to you--Who on the team would be the various Muppet characters?

I thought I saw that live events as well as replays were available, but I'm not certain.

I realize this probably isn't true, but I picture you watching the equestrian events, yelling at the TV trying to psych out the horses & riders into falling. Not quite, but close--I did make comments to myself about some near misses, and about one jump in particular where the horse lands on a steep downslope.

I'm going to be such a girl right now, but I can't remember the last time I got to watch the equestrian events. I saw some of the dressage over the weekend, and I'm watching the cross-country stage right now. So far, I haven't seen anyone fall, but one of the U.S. horses did balk at one jump, and has struggled to clear a couple of others.

When I get up in the morning, and there's a note on my computer, from my husband, to check out a thread, and he signs it with a smiley face, I know it's gotta be good. But, when I nearly laugh out loud, risking waking him up--even better than I expected. I had forgotten about the themed trip until I read the first post. As craigharmann said, it's fun to see the team do something like this, and hopefully it will loosen them up a little so they can have fun while they play each day.

Every time my husband walked by my computer last night, he cracked up. Every time I sit down to my computer, I can't help but smile. I'm thinking about putting it on my computer at school, too.

A blog (don't know which one) stated it was Ron's idea. He's done a great job as first-year manager, especially in keeping the team loose yet focused.

Mine too. I love the closeness this team is showing, and the next month is going to be a lot of fun. (Something to get me through long days at school.)

The glacier expedition we did was out of Skagway, out past Haines. As some have said, there are a multitude of opportunities, especially for things you may never get a chance to do otherwise, like the zipline for us. (I totally surprised my husband by saying I was interested in trying a zipline, and I didn't get scared one bit. In fact, I was hooked after the very short "training" line at the start of the course, and I look forward to being able to do it again some time.)
