 Remember Friday football league?  How about football every day?
We are having a long Fall this year at WITS, so playing conditions have been beautiful.  And the debate continues on about when you're allowed to rush the quarterback.  Let me know what you think at alumni@witsyeshiva.com.  The basketball court is still ruled by Charles James and Elimeir Weiner (Bais Medrash).  Click here to see video of Elimeir and Chuck playing basketball

 Automatic Club Update
  Thank you to Eytan Israel (Class of 2001) for signing on as #41.  Isn't it great to see Wisconsin Institute for Torah Study on your credit/banking statement?(I know the full name gets cut off the statement sometimes but at least you could get part of the name on your credit/banking statement!) If you give tzedaka through a donor advised fund at intervals for tax related purposes, you can still be part of the club.  Just contact me at alumni@witsyeshiva.com.  Members will be receiving their club cards soon in the mail.  (not this Shabbos)
