New Falcons Site - No Forum Yet

You may have noticed a newly designed Falcons website. It looks good so far but some of the features aren't working yet - namely the Fan Forum (The Unofficial will review the new site once it's done).

For all you Fresno Falcons forum junkies, here is a quick fix Old Falcons Forum. I don't think you can post anything on it though, just wander through.

For those needing to do some Falcon related posting, while we wait for the new forum, just click the comment link in this post (or any post) and comment away.

Start Planing Your Falcons Games

The 2006-2007 ECHL schedule is now out and about. The Falcons open with the tough Vegas Wranglers; that's a solid opener. Check the new schedule out by clicking HERE.

Unfortunately, Fresno doesn't play Bakersfield until November 28th. Does that mean The Unofficial has to wait till the end of November before we can talk smack to Condor Blogger NL Belardes?

Doesn’t matter, we ain’t waitin’ – CONDORS PLAIN SUCK.

Sorry for the long bloggin' break. I Just got over that overtime Alaskan heartbreaker. So, back to it.

GOOD BYE "CLARKY" HELLO JOE
Fresno, Calif. – Fresno Falcons CEO John Tull announced today that the team has hired Joe Babik as Director of Media Relations. Babik will be responsible for all of the team’s media relations efforts, in addition to serving as the radio play-by-play broadcaster for all Falcon radio broadcasts.

“Joe brings five seasons of play by play experience to Fresno and we look forward to starting a new era of Fresno Falcons hockey on radio,", said John Tull.
