Finally, opening day is upon us. The Disch is a bit behind schedule (*WHAT?*) and the first 8 games now are scheduled to be played at the Dell Diamond in Round Rock. Supposedly the first game at the still heavily under construction Disch will be Tuesday, Feb 20, a Tuesday afternoon game against Texas State. Or Southwest Texas as I still call it. I received an email today from UT Athletics, with a map showing the temporary entrance and where the potties are etc., when we are allowed back at the home field. I think it will be a bit crappy going to the games there, especially after being spoiled and drinking beer at Dell Diamond! :-) This statement was at the bottom of the email I received today - "UFCU Disch-Falk Field's $25.8 million renovation will be completed before the 2008 season."

Tomorrow they open play against the University of San Diego, who swept the Longhorns last year... at the Diamond at 3pm. I bought extra tickets and invited the sales agents I work with. Hopefully someone will show up. The weather persons cannot decide if it will be 65 degrees tomorrow or 14. Siberia's air is infringing upon us. Brrr.

Hook 'em Horns!
