So, this one's coming in kinda late...you could say I've been just a bit distracted over the last few days or so.

Anyway, here's what's up this week in the MVFC and our other opponents this season.

If you don't mind, I'll re-post this info here in case any Chicago area 'Necks are interested in attending the historic game at "Whatever Field" (I know, LOL).

The inaugural 2016 Huskie Chi-Town Showdown at Guaranteed Rate Field (formerly US Cellular Field/New Comiskey Park) vs the Toledo Rockets on Wednesday, November 9, 2016.

The game will be the FIRST EVER football game in the 25-year history of the Ballpark.

BE PART OF HISTORY!

NIU will be wearing a special White Sox inspired uniform for the game.

Helmets feature the Chicago skyline and the "Chicago stars" from the Chicago flag.

The "NIU" is in white on the front of the jersey, the numbers appear to be in White Sox font, and the sleeves have incorporated a baseball diamond with silver pinstripes so that the uniform has all three (Black, Silver, and White) White Sox colors.

I think these look really sharp.
