I usually go to SIU's games, but probably won't make it Thursday night and noon on Friday will be tough for me.

 

Are you guys coming from out of town getting motels for the weekend or what?

I am. I'm getting there around 1pm on Friday since the Birds don't play until 830. Staying at the Holiday Inn downtown. It's a step down. Last year I was at the Hilton downtown. It was way too classy for us.

If the birds making it to Sunday, some friends and I are going to drive down. But we couldn't find enough people who wanted to go the whole weekend worth it money wise.

Yeah, the first time I went two years ago we went on friday and then skipped saturday and went back sunday. After that, we knew we wanted to go for the whole weekend. Hopefully we can make it to sunday so you get to see the redbirds win the damn thing.

I dont know how many of you have Comcast in chicago, but I have a weird thing I am seeing. When games are considered local (Illinois state, Bradley, sometimes even Evansville) they will be played on Comcast channel 101. Right now if I look at the regular guide, it has nothing. However, if I hit the guide twice to display all of the shows for that particular channel, the MVC tournament is listed as a show coming up. Is the (yuck) play-in game going to be on tonite?

No. The play in games are never televised. We have to hope to win tonight and then we'll be on tv tomorrow.
