just thought i'd share this and see what other fans have done too.
i was in killeen and wanted to hear one of the panthers play off games, but that was during the time my computer had passed on. i called pack98 (my son) in san diego and we came up with a solution! he was listening to the game over the internet, so he called me from his cell phone and then placed his phone in front of the computer speaker. i put my home phone on speaker mode and me and my 2 youngest kids listened to the game!!! hey, you gotta do what ya gotta do! :cool:

I came up with the same idea last year.
My dad was in Lufkin and I was in Waco.
He could turn on his radio and place the phone
next to the speaker and I could turn my phone
on speaker and hear it. My wife thought I had lost
my freakin' mind.

"I'd crawl across a desert of broken beer bottles on my hands and knees, just to hear a Dragons game broadcast over a pay telephone"...or maybe I'd just enjoy my season tix on a nice fall Friday night at Dragons Stadium.... ;)

I could be the guy walking in the desert in front of you drinking
the beer and breaking the bottles on my way to
a Panthers game. Wait a minute...there's no desert between
Waco and Lufkin.

I would bet you would do the latter and pay to see you do the former. ;)

Yeah, I'd need some good knee pads to pull of the former....the latter is "priceless"...

When my Garland Owls played Tyler Lee in the first round last year I couldn't go because I had to work. As it turned out, I came down sick with a respiratory infection and couldn't go to work. None of the radios in the house would pick up the game, so I bundled up and got in the van and started the engine so it would warm up and listened to the whole game under my carport.

examples listed here are almost sickening. just ridiculous. maybe i would do it if my team ever won or even made it to the championship game.
ps-i was kidding, its not sickening. it is very cool that you all love your teams so much.

During Lufkin's state run to the title in '01 was when we really began huddling around the radio for those games we couldn't make. The first nailbiter we missed was the OT win in the Dome against Spring Westlake. After we pulled that one out we began the supersticous (sp) process of having to set up the same radio the same exact way for every game thereafter we didn't make in person. It's worked out pretty well - I think the only game we've lost listening to that little radio was against Garland in '04.
" Left Field " has gotten real creative to get me Katy Tigers Football when I am on the ROAD . $$$$$$$$

I've been listening to a game from the TSRN archives as much as possible to catch up on whats going on in the world of Texas...I can't wait to see it, travel it, and live it.
