3. A secure internet hook-up. No more "Convention Gate" scandals.
4. Lastly a list of what is needed from the community to bring this thing to reality ie. cords, routers, food, drinks etc. We will help.

We are going to definitely blow by this Covention Gate. I am just saying that to be housed in the same proximity and a place like the Embassy totally alleviates a heck of a lot of headaches for the host. There is a reason why it is such a successful venue. I have been to the middle of the road deals with my family before and it just doesn't work. I want to be with my family, my boys love to swim and work out and go room to room. Eat, sleep, play, all on the same block. We really, in my opinion, have outgrown a smaller venue.

While we are on the subject we surely don't need no guesswork or bartering from leagues. The membership should be more in tune with what is proper and an all-inclusive, walk up tournament makes any league championship secondary as it should be. Of course it would be great to have a league championship or two. Just keep in mind the MFCA provided an excellent venue to play and if you wanted to stay. I can't see myself missing the MFCA for a league championship and I must wonder about the cost of two trips instead of one. I don't see that happening.

What we need now is for the remainder of our miniature football brethen to either formulate ideas so that we can see some Stoners, Diamonds, Saltys, and others because to be frank, their skilled coaches are just as good as any plus they are great people to hang with too. This can be a bonefide, prime time extravanganza unparrelled in the history of miniature football. The venue should match. Just my 2 cents.
