As I continue my birthday road trip home to STL, to spend time with my mother, sisters, niece and nephews, I still found some time to check out some soccer. The Bears were in the unfortunate circumstance of being the guests for the Billiken’s Homecoming Weekend and 100 year Anniversary celebration. In addition to the fireworks display at halftime for the crowd of almost 5800 (2nd largest ever) the Billiken’s displayed why they are ranked as high as #5 in one national poll. There’s an excellent write up on the game at the SLU site, check it out if you’d like more details. I’m going to have some more birthday cake. Ciao.
