Wish I could go to T-Town and cheer you on. Good luck homie and leave it all on the field. Most of us dont have the talent to even be taken seriously by scouts. All MGo prayers go out to you hoping you make it to the Big Leagues...and stick

Best of luck.

If you make it to the show as a lefty you can make enough money that you could reopen the publisher so Brian doesn't have to use kickstarter any more.

win/win

However this works out at least you chose a path and commited to it.

No matter what happens, simply the decision to put yourself on the line is a triumph in itself.  The going for it can be as fulfilling as whatever the original dream had to offer.

Thanks for putting it out there so we can root for you!

Dining advice while in Tuscaloosa:

1. Eat at City Cafe in nearby Northport for a great meat and 3 diner.

2. Eat at Dreamland BBQ, its legendary.

3. 15th Street Diner, if its still there.

Its only open during the week.

Skip Dreamland and go to Archibalds. Much better.

Skip 15th St dinner. Same idea as City Cafe, but not as good. 

Hit Nicks in the Sticks, and have a few Nickademus's. Make sure you arent driving though.

Chucks or Surin for sushi.

Get a pitcher at the Houndstooth and sit on the patio people watching. Then go down the street to Gilletes to check out the sorority talent. 

Waysider is a must for breakfast. The Bear ate there every game day.

Rama Jamas for lunch. Its in the shadow of the BDS and full of old Bama memoriblia. Plus the owner, Gary, is a great guy.
