UTEP vs Tulane in Key Game For Both Football Programs

Taking Jess and the kids to Sun Bowl stadium thus evening to watch the Miners battle the Green Wave in a big Conference USA game for both teams.  Tulane was just plain awful the first part of the season but has played much better of late.  We all are aware of Utep' s struggles on offense this season and are wondering if tonight the offense will finally match the effort of their defense.  I think Mike Price is a good man and has done great things for the university but agree with most El Pasoans that this should most definitely be his last year. Eager to see who starts at Qb for the Miners this week and how many fans will show up hoping for a victory instead of a heartache.  CoOn a side note, I am really curious to see if fans will spend about $8.50 for a beer and if they will refrain from littering the field with their expensive brew if Miner offense starts to stink up the joint.  Should be an exciting evening and hopefully a sweet Homecoming for Mike Price and his Miners.

UTEP Women's Basketball 2012-2013 Season

The season for the UTEP Women's basketball team is right around the corner and expectations are once again sky high for this year.  The women are looking to continue their dominance in Conference USA and hope to ride the leadership of Jr. Kayla Thornton. The Miners are ranked second in the CUSA preaseason poll behind a tough Tulane team. 

Our family tries to attend as many women's games during the season.  Ticket prices are incredibly cheap and the action on the court is second to none. 

Good luck to Coach Adams and her team this season.  Go Miners!


Walking Dead Season Premiere

 

Have a tough decision to make between watching the Texans beat the Packers or catching the season premiere of what is one of the best shows on the planet.  I have become a huge Walking Dead fan and have looked forward to the season premiere more than Miner fans have looked forward to basketball season.  Hope the season doesn't dissapoint  and the Zombie action is fast and furious.  Just to show that watching this show isn't pointless check out the leadership lessons you can learn from surviving a zombie apocalypse.

Are you a Walking Dead Fan?  Any predictions on how the series will play out?  Who will be the first to become a zombie happy meal?  Love to hear your opinions.
