Locos Express News 10/19

As always, if you've missed any past episodes of Locos Extra on Sundays, you can catch up on the episodes here via KTNV channel 13.

The game on Saturday is themed "Kid's Rule," so all kids 12 and under are free. All UNLV students with valid student ID are free too! There will be a fan fest that starts at 10AM with bounce houses, face painters, BMX riders, skateboarders, and more.

The 2010 UFL Championship game site has been announced. It comes as no surprise that Omaha will be hosting the game. They've been selling out, and their fans are very enthusiastic. Hopefully Vegas can catch up!

Safety Lewis Baker and kicker Steven Hauschka won UFL defensive/special teams players of the week due to their contributions to last weeks game. Daunte Culpepper should've won offensive player of the week, for throwing it to us so many times. Barker had two tackles, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and an interception against Sacramento, while Hauschka hit four field goals ranging from 36-47 yards during the game.

Late Game Updates

I've been pulled away from the blog for a while, but I'm working on being back on top of things full time. Anyway, here's some quick blurbs for the previous two games against Omaha and Sacramento.

GAMEDAY 9/18/2010 TUSKERS @ LOCOS

Today is the day we've been waiting for for 303 days. It is the start of the 2010 UFL Season. There are two great games to watch today. The Sacramento Mountain Lions will be in Hartford to take on the Colonials. That game airs on NESN at 11:30 Pacific time.

The second game features the UFL championship rematch between the Las Vegas Locomotives against the Florida Tuskers. This is the game that a lot of UFL fans have been waiting for. Will the Tuskers claim revenge for the Locos taking away their perfect season? Or will the Locos start their championship defense in dramatic fashion?
