CARDINAL Caravan this afternoon

Thursday Cardinal Couple

-Final Cardinal Caravan at Captain's Quarters

-Another Lindsey headed to the press table...

6 p.m. the start time for the activities at Captain's Quarters down on the Ohio River. Rick Pitino, volleyball's Anne Kordes and soccer's Karen Ferguson-Dayes the featured speakers. The Ladybirds and Louie the Cardinal Bird will be on hand as well with Al Greener's excellent UofL Pep Band. Who knows, you just might run into a couple of Lady Card hoopster as well.

Captain's Quarters is a great place to have Cardinal Caravan!

Even though CARDINAL COUPLE won't be able to attend, we've got readers there that have promised to provide us a full report later this evening. If you go, go early...it gets crowded down on the lawn.

The Howitzer enters fatherdom...

Congratulations to Louisville/Cardinal Sports Report impresario Howie Lindsey and his wife Stasia on the birth of their first child...a nearly 9 lb. baby boy that was named Howard Lindsey IV.

As LSR head man Jack Coffee reports...Mother and child are doing fine...Dad not so well.

Nine pounds...about the weight of Sonja's bowling ball. You can probably expect this one to be running around with a notepad and tape recorder in pre-school a few years from now...getting inside scoop on lunch entree prospects, milk break trends and the latest scuttlebutt around the sandbox. Way to go, big guy!
