    I updated the schedule in the sidebar.

    It seems like a long time before Nov 1 rolls around.

    Let's see... 12 out of the Magic's first 20 games are on the road. If the Magic can go 6-6 on the road, and 6-2 or even 7-1 at home, the Magic will be at worst 12-8 to start the season. Then comes a stretch of 12 home games out of 15... the Magic really have a chance to establish themselves as strong playoff contenders with a strong showing here.

    At least the Magic don't have as brutal a road stretch as last season, when they played 22 of 33 games on the road in Jan., Feb., and March.

    Less than 3 months before opening night!

    Most teams usually start out slow. We should be able to steal a few games on the road early on. I think it'll be alot better to start out on the road in the beginning. Even if you start out losing a few, there will be plenty of time to recover. Last year was proof, the road destroyed our team, and we were to far into the season to recover. Nov seems like a loong time right now.

    Yes, it does seem like forever until the start of the season. I think most of us are bit more excited than we have been in the last few years. To go 6-6 on the road would be a very positive start for the young team. They say road trips bring a team closer together.. i hope this is true.
