Means we have to change the masthead on the group. 

I posted some reworks in the log thread. I have the Photoshop files at the ready. I understand we have a few themes and I'd love to make a proper one for each theme but it's all up to the man in charge. The current one isn't sized correctly it seems and that was my bad initially.

Here was a mock up I did some time ago locally on my server cause I was bored one winter lol.

How does one become a "member of the Ualbany Football community"?  I would think season ticket holders should have been invited to this, no?

Anyone actually attend that shindig? I lost power in Halfmoon from 4:15-7:45. Cell signal (Cricket, Verizon, Google Fi which is TMo/Sprint) is absolute garbage in Clifton Park/Halfmoon. Virtually unusable.

Tell me about losing power ....  You lost power due to down lines at Englemore and Vischer Ferry Center Roads .... I had power but lost internet service about 12 minutes into the event.  They recorded the event so perhaps they will make a recording available for viewing.... saw the last 5 minutes

I watched it.  I'm assuming it will be posted shortly.  It was nice to hear some info from the Athletic Department.

I was typing my question: When is the anticipated date for the first football game for the spring 2021?  Then the internet died, then i said "what the #$%@!!!  Was there any mention of an anticipated schedule?

I did not see one.  I asked about FB and Lacrosse and got a canned answer from Benson.

Thanks for the response, I expected as much.  All the CAA AD's and football 🏈coaches are waiting to late September to see how thing play out perhaps obtaining direction from the NCAA.

Watched the Zoom highlights from MB and GG. Underwhelming. We learned what exactly? I guess they’re just feeling their way and trying to remain positive about the future. Better to tell us nothing than something that doesn’t come to pass.

I think the goal was just to stay in touch with interested fans.  They really can't say exactly how the spring season will be set up yet.  They did say it was pretty much play it by ear!
