Anyone know Salchi?
 

Poor guy, first daughter born today, living in Houston.

There's a good chance he's coming to my house tomorrow to bunk down for a few days, with wife and newborn in tow.

I never met him. I always thought he was polynesian for some reason, but I guess not.

btw, it was only after I told Salchi that we had gameplan that he took me up on my offer. :P

yeah, he used to come to all of the tailgates, he's a very cool guy guy. He is also an extremly bright guy (iirc, he was a double major in geology and rocket science). Hi's wife is also a huge sports fan.

Salchi must be stuck on the freeway. He said he was leaving at 5am. Still haven't heard from him, some 8 hours later. (normally less than 4 hours).

"Houston resident Tim Conklin told CNN that he had been in bumper-to-bumper traffic for 13 hours and had only gotten about 48 miles. He said the drive to Dallas, where his father-in-law lives, usually only takes about four hours. "

man, that has got to be one horrible drive, considering he has a newborn child in the car as well as his wife who is still recovering from giving birth. I only hope he left with a full tank of gas and he doesn't run out :(

Still haven't heard from him. His cell just goes to voice mail.

Salchi drove all day and got 20 miles.

The officials that didn't open up the roads earlier are idiots.

Salchi called about 30 minutes ago, and he's coming to my place. Roads are clearer now apparently.

Glad to hear he made it out of Huston but the important...
 

question is... Will he be able to catch the game?
