The 2009 Season Begins!

Well it's that time again Ute fans! Unfortunately I have to start with some bad news, over half the Romney clan will be missing the first game of the season Utah state, but be sure we'll be there for the rest of them. So as long as everyone is still up for it we'll follow the same format as last year. i.e. rotate the main course and sides for the season. The schedule is as follows, please let me know if you can take a main course and which week works best for you.

Thursday Sept 3rd 7pm- Utah State
Saturday Sept 26th 5:30pm- Louisville
Saturday Oct 24th 2pm- Air Force
Saturday Oct 31st 6pm- Wyoming
Saturday Nov 7th 4pm- New Mexico
Saturday Nov 21st 2pm- SDSU
I'd like to get some opinion about doing some type chili or BBQ cook off for the SDSU game so give me your thoughts on that as well.

All games are currently available, The Romney Clan which normally takes the first game of the year will have to pick up a different game so we'll fill in where we're needed.

As usual the more the merrier so if you know of someone who you think would like to be included in the group go ahead and forward them this email and/or send me their email address. Or invite them along and just give me the added head count.

Well we've got two weeks left in the season and only one remaining home game!
If we can manage to not trip up this Saturday next week will be a very exciting week.

I've added a slide show with the pictures from the TCU game hope everyone had a good time.

Expect an update Monday with the TDS game information.

8-0 and Ranked 11th

Not much else I have to say about that!
8-0 heading into the bye week, finally played a full game of football. We've got a very tough November in front of us but if we can manage to make it through without an L we'll be playing new years day some where!!!

VS.




Well two home games in, and what really could be the biggest of the season it is a must win!

Weber State was well Weber state, good times but not the biggest game we've had!

This Thursday we'll be having BBQ with all the fixens! I'll be getting there as close to 4 as I can with most everyone else showing up right around 5.

Hope to see you all tomorrow!

VS.

Well we are two games in and we've played 2 good halves of football, which were enough to get us the W's !!!!

This week we are up at Utah State with a 6pm kick off time. Unfortunately the Romney's will not be traveling to our stadium, but we will be watching the game at our house. Due to cost of travel and the lure of Oktoberfest that afternoon we've decided to enjoy the game in comfort as opposed to another game on the benches.

Feel free to give me a call or mail my home address if you would like to join us.

I'll be posting pictures from the past two games as soon as I get some. Hope you enjoy your weekend!!

VS.

Well we're home and 1-0 for our home opener looking to avenge a shut out last year in Sin City!!

Kick off is at 6:00 pm and we'll start setting up around 2:30. No parking pass? No problem arrive by 3:00pm and you won't need one!!

Food assignments

Main Course: Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches- Romney's

Drinks: Swett's

Vegetable/fruit trays: Claudia, Brigham, Sarah and John

Dessert: Mangone's

Chips and Dip: Haug's

Our Headcount looks to be right around 30 but I will send out an email with a final number by Friday.

---Last year we had those not with a food assignment bring $$ to offset cost, I'd like to do away with that and just rotate assignments so we don't have to worry about it. But I will post a poll on the blog site to judge people's thoughts.

Please feel free to call or email me if you have any questions, assignments are very flexible so if you have any problems questions or concerns just let me know. If you email please email my home address, joe.romney@gmail.com

Going to Michigan???

If you are going you should call my cell Saturday morning so we can all hook up and crash some tailgates! If you don't have my cell # email me before Thursday and I'll give it to you. If you don't have my email I probably don't want to hang out with you before kickoff anyway!
