Wiz,
thanks for the update... what do you think are some of the reasons the score was so close? did you expect the game to be that close? just curious...

Sounds like a good game. Any crowd numbers? More or less than Wed?

There were fewer people there thursday then there was on opening night on wednesday. Hopefully the attendance will pick up after christmas. Actually Chicago Steam was a decent team. They played well.
