From your fearless leader, Pinckney -

________________________________

Slackers/ Meanies:

April Fools fest is on.  I have a young group of recent UCONN
alum,(who can actually run +play!) that are interested.
So oil up your knee braces, strap on your active ankles, start your
zone diet, whatever and get ready to play this April.

Even if you think you are too slovenly to make a run at actually
moving around on a field, you are expected to be there and provide
some excellent, seasoned heckling and beer drinking. (yeah some of you
should only be drinking light beer at this time...)

My guess is that it is the last and only shot of having a real reunion
team.

Pass this on to whomever you can from that era.

Matt

Ps. I am giving you all 4+ months to plan for this!  Suck it up and
get your asses out there!

It's of course ironic it's called The "Ultimate Sacrifice Memorial".
Why didn't they place this thing near the ROTC bldg? I think the chem
field made a sacrifice as well.

Subject: Re: Uconn tourney next weekend

OK everyone, so our tournament got a little derailed due to lack of teams...

Instead, we are now going to have a hat tournament on Sunday, October 26
only, starting at 9:00am.  Its going to be $10 a person, with the proceeds
going to help fund our trip to Trouble in Vegas this February.  Let me
know if you are still interested in coming down and playing.

Hi there,

Sounds like you guys are having a tourney.  Nice!  You're looking to have an alumni team?  Well I'm cc'ing the masses, so if anyone is interested you will now be inundated with emails from them.  

I'll be there, tailgating, that is.

So far, I understand that the tourney is October 25 & 26 and is at UConn somewhere.

Will you send out details about time and location? Or will it get posted on your website?

OKAY, ALUMNI, THIS PART IS JUST FOR YOU:

BEFORE YOU HIT REPLY ALL, YOU COULD.... JUST....

... RSVP TO GRETCHEN AT: gretchenfetscher@...

... GO ON OUR YAHOO GROUP AT: http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/Uconn-Dukes/  AND SEE WHO ELSE IS GOING, LIKE ED DID ALREADY.  GOOD JOB, ED.

... GO TO THE TEAM's WEBSITE TO SEE IF THERE IS INFO POSTED: The Team's website

... OR REPLY JUST TO THE PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE A SPECIFIC QUESTION OR HECKLING FOR

AND THE REASON I AM TRYING TO DO SOME PREVENTATIVE CHASTISING IS THAT THE TEAM IS ABOUT TO HAVE A TOURNAMENT AND THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ANSWER TWO HUNDRED EMAILS, JUST FROM THE ALUMNI.

THAT'S IT. THANKS!

Becky

Hi Everyone.

Okay, l will 'splain it better....  :)


NOTE:  To navigate around the Gallery, look for the links at the top left side of each page, and on some pages, the bottom left side.

1.  Go to the main page of the gallery  http://ctultimatealumni.com/gallery2/main.php


2.  Click on the first picture, it's  above the caption "Album:  Our Reunion Games"  http://ctultimatealumni.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=26


3.  Click on the first picture, it's above the caption "Album: 2008 Reunion"  http://ctultimatealumni.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=683


4.  Decide where you want to put the pictures you are adding, and click on the picture above that album's name.  For example, "Friday Party".  Once you are in the "Friday Party Album" you will see a bunch of pictures.  As of this email, there are about 20 in there.  Now look to the left side of the page, there is a list of options.  Click "ADD ITEMS".  That will allow you to add items to that album.  


5. It looks like you have to select each photo individually, but if you Zip (compress) up to about 10 photos then you only have to select that zipped folder.  The total size you can upload at once is 8 megabytes.  Photos can be 1 to 6 mb, depending on your camera.  For example, last night I uploaded a zipped files, it was 6 mb and had 8 pictures in it.


Hope that helps!  But call or email me if you are stuck!

Hi Friends,

Exciting news for me... I have been able to update our photo gallery so that you can upload photos yourself.  :)

This is the directly link to our photo gallery: http://ctultimatealumni.com/gallery2/main.php.  This is also accessible by going to ctultimatealumni.com and clicking on Photos.  

It will ask you to register.  This prevents hacking, etc.  The register link is at the top right corner. You will need to create a username and password.  KISS, People.  And write them down somewhere nearby.

You can create your own album or add to existing albums.  If they are reunion photos, go to the Reunion Folder, then the 2008 folder and look for the right folder:  Friday Party, The Game or Saturday Party.   You can upload photos one at  a time or if you Zip them you can upload a bunch all at once (the faster way).

In our Photo Gallery, you can add and read comments and rate photos.

Enjoy!

If you don't already know this, it's Spring Weekend at UConn.  And if
you don't know what that means, it's the party of the year.  It starts
Thursday and goes all weekend. Most undergrads will not be sober until
next Monday night.

I sent a message to the current team and gave them all the details of
  our events. I also told them not to sweat about bringing stuff to the
parties (college kids' budgets) and that if they need rides to let us
know.  We don't want our youngun's driving drunk or missing out b/c
they don't have a ride.

So I will let you know if I get any requests and thanks in advance.

I did find that if I click on the link in Becky's original posting, I
also get the "document not found" error.  However, when I actually READ
Becky's post, and followed her directions (click on the "Database" link
on the left), it did work.  Interestingly, the URL displayed in the

Hey Boz, 

I'd like to believe it works ok, b/c other people have added their info.  So, assuming that it IS working.  When you get to the database page, look at the top of the page.  Are you still signed in?  Next to yahoo sports, it should say "Welcome ... (your yahoo username).  If you still can't get it to work, just send me your info and I'll add it for you.

I guess this means you're coming to the party.  Now what can you do about getting the other 90's players that live in CT to come?  Slackers!

Hello Party People,

To RSVP for the party Friday night (
puleeez RSVP) go to our Yahoo Group's database section:

http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/Uconn-Dukes/database

You can still come if you don't RSVP, by the way.

In our Yahoo group's database, you can see exactly who is going, how many people they are bringing and what they will bring to the party. And you all can do it yourself. No excel spreadsheets to update and email out to everyone. Too, yeechy!

You have bookmarked the Yahoo group, right? Well, since you forgot, click on one of the links in this email, there are several - at the top and bottom.  Now bookmark it! Okay, when you get there, you may or may not be signed in. Look at the very top of the page and see if you are signed in to yahoo.

Okay, now if you are signed in, half way down on the left, you will see a menu list in a light blue box. The first is HOME or MESSAGES, below that you will see DATABASES. Click on DATABASES. In the next screen you will see... a table! Ha! You thought I was going to say database, didn't you?

Carrying on here, the only table there is called REUNION PARTY 2008. Click directly on that title. Now you will see some names in a list, Becky & Dennis are at the top. To add your info, click on ADD RECORD - it is in blue, in the middle of the page, just above AND below the "Records".  Now add your information. You can edit it later if necessary. Then click the blue ADD RECORD button and you're done.

See, wasn't that easy?
hahahaha. Jokes on us Old Guys. Laugh it up. But seriously. Go there and RSVP you slackers.

Becky

Well, lets see.  Since sending my first ever email I've been busy looking up words in the dictionary, clearing sites for posh tents, checking in with my mom to be sure its ok that dukes sleep at my house (she said yes), visiting the web site to see when the alumni game is, rounding up the chickens so they don't get in the way of sleeping dukes and making sure I'm not mucking up the yahoo site cuz Becky is serious.  And on top of all that I've had to spend time in front of the mirror reminding myself that I am in fact Beanie.
So now that I have a moment.  It's nice to be so well received, but I knew I would be.  Thank you.  the truth is I do have a "space" for the post game/Willington pizza event.  In fact I have two.  It would be good if the one person who is most in charge of making a decision about this event could give a shout out cuz I think I can offer a great family friendly venue, maybe even offer a choice of venues, to help with this great and glorious weekend.  Which is actually now on my calendar.
I really do have a large yard for tents, several open bedrooms and pullout couches, 3 showers, a urinal, and chickens. So while Fish remains true to his roots, running fast, cutting hard and subbing often, the rest of you can be sleeping at my house.
call me 860 742 1078, so I can help.

I think that's an excellent idea!
 
For us, that is...
 
...and it's true, Beanie, there is nothing to fear about Buck, though there are some others that are well worth watching.
 
Provided they can still walk without assistance after the game.
 
Perhaps an Ibuprofen and aspirin buffet could be served?

Beanie,
Hi.  I am one of the old sages from years gone past.  Do not fear me.
I highly encourage you to consider inviting 40+ of your closest friends to this location for the Saturday night post-game wrap-up, re-take, embelishment, fact-spinning and other-wise pointless event of nothing-ness.
It might provide an interesting venue for political careers to be ended (ask Senator Braister - Boob) or any of the others that wish the dice had rolled another way 10-30 years ago.
 
I will support refreshments - not to worry.
 
or not.

Ok, here goes.  So I've only ever sat at my little computer and "listened in" on all this great disc chatter, feeling a bit like a member of Homeland Security.  But now seems like a good time, as any, to pipe up!  So I have never attended a Alumni weekend, and may  not attend this one either (I cant remember why but Ill get on that soon) but I did play from 85 to 90, live 10 min, from the Mother Ship in Coventry, count Rob and Pam Miller and the Cronin's as good buddies and have a big house with empty bedrooms, lots of lawn, no toddlers who need to nap and just a general all around good feeling about all the great things that flow over these internet ways.  So having said all that, I would be happy to have my house be a destination for any alums and theirs the weekend of the big tado.  Private room with a bath, all at a reasonable price and I promise to leave the light on.  So pass the word, drop me a line, let me know how I can help.  I have no clever nick name, I'm just
Kathleen

Welcome to you Yahoo Group.  You can post all you want here and people won't get 20 emails a day.  Ha!

If you are a member of this group, you can VERY EASILY CONTROL the amount of emails you will get.

1.  Sign in - at the VERY top of the yahoo page next to YAHOO SPORTS! it will say "sign in" if you aren't already.
2. Just below the HUGE ad banner at the top, it will say "edit membership" in tiny letters. Click on that.
3.  Select the option you want, probably Daily Digest or Get No Emails.
4. Done.

- Becky

I see we already have 10 members, but no posts.  You guys are so silly.

Matt, (Mod is God) you can put a photo of us on the home page.  It's
in the management section (which is only visible to you) on the left
hand side.

Thanks and Merry Christmas everyone
