I could not attend this tonight.  Did anyone from the board attend?  If so, how was it?  Eric, I asked on another thread about the coaches' show.  Is it going to be live every week from Channelside this season?

'mania:

I was at the BullsBash, and saw some of the usual suspects from the Bullspen. It looked like about 250 people were in the crowd. Jim Louk said during the Bull Session show that they will be at Splitsville at Channelside every week during the season for the Bull Session show 7-8pm on Thursdays.  Go Bulls!!
