Who is ready for the Red Herring?

I'm starting to feel that need for our annual red herring. Who else is ready?

So this year has something to do with fish. We can work with this.

My Rookie team is finally starting to get excited!

The four people that so far have said they can wait, either you lie, or you aren't as obsessed as you ought to be. Knowing FIRST, you lie!

On the contrary, they are trying to finish all those things that they were planning last spring to do before Kick-off.

With everything I have on my plate -- chess, academic challenge, debate -- it's not a lie; chess and academic challenge are going away for me once the build season starts, so I'm savoring them while I still have them.

For real. Its tough. Being on a varsity sport, doing daily winter track workouts, and robotics? yikes. I value my sleep-so I can definitely wait for the kickoff. I'm not saying I'm not excited though... bring it on!

What sport do you play? I go to Oak Creek, so we probably play against you a few times.

You might try the game hint threads. No offense, but anything you can think of with the picture has probably been thought of, done, and posted already.
