    Not sure what the protocol is, but should we present the banners to his family? Think that would be a nice gesture.

    Thanks for the praise on the banner guys. This couldn't have been done without FluSH, Carts, Pronto, and AL-MO. Those guys are the real stars on this one. Working through a hell of a lightning storm on Friday the 13th with the power going out briefly at one point? This had horror show written all over it, but we pulled it off.

    I really think that that would be a great idea and really think that his wife and family will appreciate it a lot.

    We (my wife and I) will talk to his wife tomorrow and ask her...

    We left the big BUDGIE banner at BMO attached to the railing. I would have suggested that the one the NEE guys did be the one to give to his wife anyway since it's got the dates and everything on it. Maybe we could get as many people as possible to sign it with one of those silver sharpies or whatever?

    It's a great idea.

    I know his wife really appreciated the minutes silence and the banners produced. It was a great show of respect...

    We'll call tomorrow...

    I think they both looked great. And to be honest, I liked the RPB one better because the letters were bigger and you could see it better.

    Great effort by both groups though.

    Bigger is not always better...it wasn't about size or showing off, but about showing respect for a man who had nothing but love for the game and TFC.

    I think he was just stating his preference.

    And I agree...bigger is not always better....at least I hope that's the case!!!

    Both banners were definitely great and I am proud of everyone who contributed....and definitely to the entire stadium for that moment of silence....very well observed by all.....great job everyone...

    and the Budgie banner was still on the rail in the South End according to AL-MO
