There is a forecast for freezing rain continuing thru late tonight.
THEREFORE, COACH KRIS HAS CANCELED SATURDAY'S PRACTICE.

The Buffalo Wings House in Herndon (13005 Worldgate) is showing Six Nations Rugby via Setanta sports channel.
FYI - Buffalo Wing House will NOT be showing the matches LIVE...
The Wing House will be showing the games, just not live. The bar has regular Setanta, not the Setanta premium.
The games won't be tape-delay broadcast until 8pm (Wales vs. Italy) and 11pm (Scotland vs. Ireland), with the England vs. France game on Sunday night at 7pm.

Jon Carter reports that if we need another venue O'Connels on King St. in Old Town Alexandria is showing them LIVE and doing $4 - 20 oz Guinness...it is $20 for all 3 matches...

Su mmers restaurant in Arlington, one block from the Courthouse metro stop. $20 for all 3 games - live.

Also, the Shebeen in Fairfax will probably have all the games live for $20.

Here is the LIVE schedule for Sat.
Wales v. Italy @ 10:00am
Scotland v. Ireland @ 12:00pm
France v. England @ 3:00pm

Also, Prez Bushy wants to move our scrum sled from its current location at South Run Rec Ctr (7100 and Reservation Dr) in W Springfield.
We need volunteers to help pick it up and load into Bushy's truck. It takes a minimum of 3 people to lift it. We would like to move the sled on a practice night so that we can go to Poplar Tree Park and have plenty of help to move it there.
It looks to be in relatively good condition and not in need of immediate repair.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: Who has combo for lock?
Contact Bushy at jbush@combustioneer.com if you have the lock combo or if you can help with this task.
