LOMBARDI SHOW
TICKETS are now on sale for LOMBARDI. It stars Dan Lauria as the famed Green Bay Packers coach and Judith Light as his wife, Marie. Performances begin on September 23, with an official opening night set for October 21 at Circle in the Square. It is directed by Thomas Kail.
It is based on the best selling biography When Pride Still Mattered: A Life of Vince Lombardi by David Maraniss, Lombardi chronicles the legendary football coach's journey from a young boy in Brooklyn to his rise as a sports legend and winning coach of the first two Super Bowls.
I spoke to Joe Favorito, the associate producer and Fordham class of 1985 and the told me that Fordham is planning two special events and that he could enable us to get tickets at a discount.
This should be a great reason to get together again and enjoy a show and dinner in New York.
Fordham should take advantage of this event to promote the University and I am sure they will

FORDHAM STRATEGIES
As you know I have spent the past 40 years as a strategist and I have been impressed with the strategies being executed by Father McShane and his team. Under his leadership Fordham is moving to become one of the premier Jesuit Universities and is enhancing the University reputation.
We have all heard about the major Development projects that the University has undertaken and a visit to ROSE HILL shows how the University has grown.
Recently I read about the development of the CALDER campus, which was left to the University and seemed to be dormant. However the University is now building a small Biology GRADUATE center on the property.
When I read about the project I wrote to Father MCSHANE and asked why the University had not developed stronger relationships with BRONX GARDENS and ZOO. He recently responded and said that the University has created new programs with both institutions and also with the Alfred Einstein Medical Institute.
Fordham is moving in the right direction and we should be proud of the accomplishments of Father McShane and support in any way we are able.
In addition, note that there is new BROADWAY show, LOMBARDI which depicts the life of Vince, a Fordham legend, and the University is working to help us be involved in the show.l

" I just got a call from Fran Maguire. John Costa died today in NYC. He had a massive brain hemorrhage sometime earlier this week and they evidently took him off the life support today.
