Your 2008 Memorial Roster

After giving a brief extension to Thunder Dahar to sort out his month of May, we now have the finalized roster. All of our top targets have signed and will be on the mountains in late-May! A rundown of the roster is as follows:

1) Dave "Bluebeard" O'Nan
2) Greg "No Nicknames" Plundo
3) Ty "Big Sweaty" Reese
4) Matt "Psycho T" Plundo
5) Kevin "Mr. 300" Bowler
6) "Cadillac" Clint Kotuby
7) Dan "Crazylegs" Conte
8) Jon "Jiggaman" Cobb
9) Jeff "Taglianetti" Cobb
10) Jon "King" Plundo
11) Rick "The Wedgebuster" Plundo
12) Matt "Thunder" Dahar" (verbally committed. Check is in transit.)

Referee: Chris "The Refereezy" Perry

Very solid field. I would be happy to go to battle with any of the above names. We are less than 60 days away from reporting date!!! Upcoming in the next week or so is a Madden-style ranking system to handicap the field.

Hopefully the rankings will give us a lot to post and talk about through the month of April. The next 30 days will seem slow. We'll need to keep momentum and morale at an all-time high to get us through the month and then once May hits the excitement levels are all through the roof week after week building up to Memorial Day weekend! Wooooo!

We'll need to get a post upcoming - not now, maybe in May - detailing when everybody arrives and leaves and everything so that we can coordinate rides. I know far more people are arriving in Pittsburgh/Latrobe on Thursday this year. Greg is trying to get a Pirates game trip set up for Thursday night. More details will follow but keep that in mind if you have not set up your flight/work schedules for Thursday/Friday. Talk to yinz later!

I am flying into Pittsburgh Thursday at 430pm and want to go dahn to PNC Park for some Irons, 'chos and the pierogi race!!! Psycho T (aka Topsfield) is a card carrying member of the "Left Field Loonies" so i'm sure he'll be going anyway. If you need anymore motivation, it's alumni autograph night! Former bucco greats such as Bob Walk will be signing autographs before the game dahn on the Riverwalk!!!!!!!
