Letter from NA: Feb 10

This week a few of our fellow Hibees in other countries stopped by the forum to say hi—the intrepid Northern Ireland branch and the Australian branch. Nirelandhibby and forzafred, hi! Americanhibee joined up asking for a Chicago supporter’s branch and was no doubt appalled at our relatively quiet board. So northcarolinahibee and I made up for it with a ton of noise. I don’t have posting counts here but you all know. And every bit of it was well thought out and elucidating. Welcome also to our newest member cad1875 who found us from Hibee Bounce, which I stealthily and cleverly posted our web site link on.

On game day, Saturday, mostly it was me and northcarolina (surprise) again posting frustration as neither of us could see the game and for most of it I couldn’t even hear it…hey, where were the rest of you! That’s it. A “match thread” is going up every game day that I have a chance to do it and you are encouraged to be there to post cheers or outcries of horror.

Wednesday we play Gretna (note 7.45 time) and there had better be cheers over it or else we’ll never hear the end it from the yams. Bad enough they’re a point above now.

Next up to guest blog here and tell us some old Hibee stories is northcarolina (In fine keeping with the noise) and also americanhibee has volunteered to write us some rants.

Finally, it was Chinese New Year this week and we entered into the Year of the Rat, which was renamed Year of the Yam Rat in honor of our dear sister team.
