mace you can merge this if you want, but i thought id post it here for those that dont go to the destination phoenix thread.

go to www.suns.com and you can see a picture of yours truly in all his pasty white ugliness linking to the first part of our blog regarding our trip from downunder to phoenix. (im called sunsdownunder there)

i encourage all suns fans from here to join planet orange also and check back regularly to help increase interest in our trip.

:lol: You aint seen my white pastiness yet. ;) I'm so white I am almost transparent.

Let's just say that we are lucky we are going in the middle of winter or you would be walking around with someone resembling a beetroot.

SDU, you are my hero!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go man, and get the group together. You need to get KJ7 down here too!

Anyways, I wanted to put together a bball game for when you guys get down here with the cats in the real gm forum. However, I have moved to Denver. Maybe there is a way I can catch up with you guys, fly down to phx and catch up with you guys.

What do you say?

yeah eastside sounds good mate, will flick you a PM with details of the trip/itinerary early next week. Will be in Phoenix after the 6 game road trip out East - if SDU's modelling contract hasn't kept in NY of course haha

We're expecting the old hands to make an effort which means you champ! I really want to meet Frank for a beer...

Damn, I had not read your itenerary until just now. You guys are nuts.

I would consider flying from Toronto to Boston. That is a quick turnaround and a long drive. Here in Arizona we have the dog days of summer, I would say the northeast has the dog days of winter, and by dogs, I mean sled dogs. It would suck to get stuck in a blizzard, atleast with flying you only need a short window to make the jaunt to bean town. And I am not sure how much time crossing the Canadian border will take, I have not crossed it since 9/11.

The Atlanta to DC drive is going to hurt as well, with the short turnaround between games. I would consider skipping the Hawks and heading straight to DC from Charlotte, or heading to PHX from Atlanta.

I don't think I will still be living in PHX when you guys are here (maybe, just not likely), with options being NYC and LA right now, and holding out for Hawaii, Tokyo, Sydney and the Carribean. If I am in in NYC or LA I will have to meet up with you guys, have a beer and shoot the shat.

Road trip is sweet man! Sounds like it is going to be good.

PM me and I am keeping my eyes open for flights for that week. Also, let us know where you will be sitting at US Airways.

If we want to do a pick up game, we might have to find a place, get some emails together and do it that way. We have a few months left, so lets see what I can do.
