* My apologies for being absent last week. Cancer raised it's ugly head with my mom early last week. She's in her "seasoned" 70s, a tough as nails coaches wife, and will fight this as best she can; one first down at a time!*

Life a bit refocused right now, but still Mountaineer proud!

---------------

This Saturday's weather trend looks fantastic. Chill will be in the air the scents of a well established fall will abound, and I can think of no reason why THE ROCK shouldn't be packed this weekend for Black Saturday!

8 AM - Low 40s, Mostly sunny.

Noon - Lower to mid 50s, Mostly sunny.

Kickoff - Mid 50s, Mostly Sunny

End of game - Lower 50s to upper 40s, Mostly clear.

Winds should be light, but if they do blow, temps will feel more like the mid to lower 40s.

GO MOUNTAINEERS!

Sorry to hear about your Mom. Good luck and just keep moving those chains down the field into the Endzone.

Will do... thanks!

Sorry to hear about your mom, unfortunately I know what that's like. On a more upbeat note, I'm SO glad that weather is looking good this weekend. We have a half season package (kids and all) and this year the weather for our previous 2 games (Citadel and Elon) was awful particularly the Sundays after the games. We'll be making a long weekend out of this final game and it sounds like it's shaping up to be a good one.

Prayers and best wishes for your Mom.

Good luck to your mom. Some things are more important than gameday weather.

Thought and Prayers to you and your family WXAPP. I lost my mom to cancer in 84 and my dad last year so I know what it's like to have a parent ill. I hope she goes into remission and you can enjoy many more years of life with her. Cherish the time you have.

Excellent, thanks.

And best wishes for your mom and family.

Thanks for being a good son for your mom. May there be many first downs in her future.

Thanks you all very much for your well wishes. I am humbled and proud of my fellow Mountaineers.

WXAPP,

My prayers go out to you and your family. I pray your mother stays strong. Go Apps!

WXAPP,

Very sorry to hear about your mom. I knew something was up last week when Mike ran out of the office early that morning. We found out a short time later the reason. Everyone here is praying for all of you.
