You know you're having a bad day when..... you write an entire pre-game story and when you go to load it in the airport crashes your laptop.
Oh well, I'll have to start again. In Phoenix - awesome area around the stadium. Massive plaza with people everywhere. Baseball stadium is right next door, people loving the weather, and I'm loving the Louisville cheerleaders.
Not that anyone cares, but last week I described the media work area.... this week the media room is in the Phoenix Suns' practice gym. Pretty nice having it inside the stadium.
As you are facing the benches I am told, but haven't confirmed, that MU will be on the right side (I will be across from the other bench). Good to see Brad Galli down here covering MSU. The Journal will double up, as Tom Enlund will be here and I ran into our good friend Todd Rosiak, who is up here for the day.
Will post as much as I can, if you have questions - fire away, I will find out what I can.
Side note: Also, light rail is awesome. Asked at the airport about transportation and the guy told me that the cab ride would be $25-$30. Then he said a shuttle takes people to the light rail station. 10 minute light rail ride for $1.75 and it takes you to within a block of the stadium.
