Live Commentary by your correspondent Uncle Rico

60 Days: The whistle goes off, Grunion RFC has 60 days to raise the total of $50K. Will they do it?
58 Days: A few days into the match and the Grunions begin well with a 2K run by Ken "El Presidente" Jacobsen. Is this all he's got? We'll see!
50 Days: After the good start, Grunions are not able to build any momentum.
40 days: Grunions are not looking good and the clock is ticking.
30 days: The game is on a stand still. Where are the top players?
25 days: Some small but essential ground is finally made. But the Grunions are still stacked at the 5 meter line! Will they finally be able to snap out of the dry spell?
24 Days: A 1K run by veteran and Fossils supremo Bob "Caveman" Schwartz, Santa Barbara is finally playing Grunion Rugby!!
18 Days: There is movement on the sideline. A group of players started warming up. Will they impact the game?
12 Days: "Merman is finally making ground with Gregory "Judge" Smalles and Mark "men of mystery" Kelly showing some impressive moves!"
08 Days:"Low sugar Troy finally makes it appearance, now we r playing!"
05 days: "Big Drive from our generous members, Grunions are finally out of the 22"

Membership Drive Half TIME
"A third of the way in, the first half was a hardly fought match. But there is still lots of work to do. The second half of drive starts now, we have till the end of the year 2008"

2nd Half:

50 Days:"a BLAST from the past, Frank Rizzo performance earns the Grunion 8 percentage points!"

01 Days:"we are almost half way, but what a drive so far...Raffle will be drawn on the first monday of January. However, Donations will be welcome throughout the rest of the 2009 season. Thanks a lot to all of our supporters and Happy Mer Year to you all"
