Steve, to your point, yesterday when all those adorable little girls came out with the cheerleaders during one of the timeouts I turned to my wife and remarked that you would never see that at the other basketball games in town. If anyone looks down their nose at us for that, I don't care. I love seeing fans in the building of every age, color and economic stratum. I love finding ways for the little kids to be involved. That's Milwaukee. If we are securely in the Arena next year, we are primed for big things the next couple years. The coaches are very excited about the infusion of talent, and should be. Recruiting to the "UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena" is huge. I can only shake my head at the insulting suggestion that we should be the fifth wheel tenant in a new building, or worse, playing in the mini-arena down the hall, or in some curtained off space that screams "small time." It's not hard to understand the motivation behind those suggestions. MU has a program between semesters in which high school pep band members are invited to play with the MU pep band. My daughter signed up for two games but became ill and couldn't attend. Couple students from school that went said it was fun. It is a nice program.

Told him in the handshake line how proud I was of him. He has played like a champion for two seasons. I think he's the best point guard in the modern history of Milwaukee hoops and that's high praise considering some of the guys who have played for us. Only 63 turnovers this year? Man, Jordan Aaron and Kaylon Williams used to have that in their sleep!
