The Roadrunner Connection: The new game
Reports came out last week that the NBA's Toronto Raptors are considering rebranding their organization, which might include a name change from Raptors to something else. Branding is difficult, I live it every day as we try to build the brand of the CSUB Roadrunners. Whether local, regional or national, the challenge to make headway is out there for every professional or intercollegiate team or business organization.
Now I love our name, Roadrunners is fitting for us, campus was built on an area once rife with the critters, although now the kit foxes have taken over, but don't expect us to rename anytime soon. I've had a few visiting teams ask me about the name, one guy didn't realize that a roadrunner actually existed, he thought it was just a cartoon, then again he was from Kansas and I'm pretty sure the species hasn't migrated there.

The Roadrunner Connection: A little about the people I work with
Summer is coming up, now that CSUB baseball season ended abruptly in the WAC Tournament, we are officially dark for the season. 2012-13 is over for us, and 2013-14 basically starts in August when the fall sports season begins.
In the meantime I figure I would take the summer to highlight a little about some of the coaches and staff I work with. We all have stories, whatever steps we took to get here have landed us on the same path here at CSUB.

Warriors big sixth inning nips the Stallions
The odds might not have been in their favor, but as explosive as the Mountain Baseball offense has been this season, there was little doubt that a comeback was possible.
After spotting Madera South a sizable lead in the CIF Division III semifinals, the Warrior offense came alive in the bottom of the sixth by scoring eight runs to pull away for an eventual 9-5 victory.

The Roadrunner Connection: National Anthem not optional
I attend plenty of sporting events throughout the year, whether I' m working or just enjoying the spectacle as a fan, I spend more times at ballparks and arenas in a single 12 month period than many people do in their entire lifetime. Yes I do consider myself lucky.
But I've started to notice a startling trend developing across the country, lack of attention during the National Anthem. Is it just me or are more and more people ignorant to proper etiquette when it comes to the Star Spangled Banner?
