The foo is one of the original Peoria Prancers and Blades who bounced around leagues in central and northern Illinois back in the late 60’s and 70’s. He is from St. Louis and was friends with Barclay Plager, who coached him. Now, he lives in Peoria and is a big fan, attending as many games as possible. He got into it with a Peoria PR person about Rick Wamsley, arguing that Wamsley is not a good match for this young Rivermen team and certainly not fan-friendly. When he comes back to town to visit, I’ll introduce him to you guys!

Did Foo play at Winterland?

He knew some of the Rainbow Rockets in that Winterland thread I started on the STLToday. I may know Foo. What is his first name and last initial?

I'll vouch for foo as well... he's a great guy...

I was at Harry's bar last night on Market Street and look who walks by me. Talked to him a bit and he seems ready for the season to start. Guy has bulked up a lot. Guessing he's 6'1-6'2 and up to 215-225. He's a tank.

Check it out boys, Halak training over in Slovakia, in his new Blues gear. Sadly, no helmet!

One of the few rewards of going through old boxes in the basement. I have at least a couple of hundred of these in a box. This happened to be the 1st one I pulled out. Dated Feb. 15, 2000.
BTW, THIS is why I am DanGNR ! !

Halak's new glove via ASs on twitter. Hope to see the new pads and blocker as well. For that matter, can't wait to see Halak in action for the Blues.
