The Easter Holiday is always special in most southern cities and this weekend in Tallahassee was special because FAMU’s Orange and Green Game was part of Good Friday. 

Beyond giving the football faithful some hope the baseball and softball teams took care of business on the diamond. 

Beyond the diamond FAMU’s Tennis are finishing the season by defeating its arch rival and the Track team just came back from the Florida Relays in Gainesville.

Spring brings about new things and this Spring may lead to a very hot summer in Tallahassee.

We can all have fun with the joke of the week and also celebrate the amazing week that we have witnessed as FAMU fans.

FAMU Softball and Baseball have delivered on much of the promise that those who have been looking forward to conference play were hoping for.

Additionally FAMU Track was busy across the train tracks at the FSU Relays and Rattler Nation prepares for the upcoming Orange and Green Spring Game.

It's always good to be a Rattler but this week in particular has Rattler Nation excited as we're getting some prepared for what could be a solid two weeks.

FAMU basketball fans are either thankful that it's over or really proud of what the teams accomplished.

On one end the Men’s basketball team fell short as the two seed in the SWAC tournament at a time when they were the highest seed left in the tournament.

While the Women’s team exceeded the expectations of many at a critical time in the year which may have some asking the questions of will we be seeing the return of both basketball coaches.

But on the heels of this devastating end FAMU softball brought out the good brooms while the baseball team had an up and down performance against Southern.

Also Spring Football quietly moves about as we prepare for what we hope to be a massive rebound from the previous season's results.

Someone is calling in the Big Guns and per the usual the Rattlers in Arms have answered the call.

Today we have the Dr. Pickett on the show to talk about the organization's efforts to support FAMU Athletics and other aspects of the university.

The organization has begun a March Madness Membership Drive.

This membership drive an organization has a fresh take on fan engagement which is sorely needed.

In what in comparison to others is a relatively short time the organization has been able to raise over a half of a million dollars which have all been used to support FAMU students.

The organization has made major moves in a small amount of time and we are glad to not only talk about them but to be all be it small part of those who support this organization.

FAMU Track is winning the Meme Olympics while the basketball teams are continuing to provide split decisions between the Men’s and Women’s Teams.

The Diamond Back Rattlers tried to hold their own in non-conference play and the football team is quietly doing its thing at spring practice.

It’s always a good time to be a rattler, but when were approaching 100 days of no FAMU foolishness; it's even better.

FAMU Fans have had some reasons to get excited about the program!

And for those in attendance we all know one fan in particular who adds a little energy to any section he enters.

He provides a little boost of energy to the fanbase and is now the leader of Ratter Boosters.

And he’s on a mission to bring some fresh ideas to Rattler boosters and we want to hear your ideas too.

FAMU Basketball took it on the Chin but the Baseball and Softball teams came through on a short weekend. Also we see that FAMU seems to have solidified its coaching staff.

Love was in the Air and we will take some liberties with the schedule to see you on Monday!

National Signing Day has been good to the FAMU faithful as the energy which has been surrounding the program continues to momentum that a new Coach who has favor with the faithful garners. 

And this kind of distraction is exactly what the faithful needed during a time when the Basketball teams are struggling. 

But Uncle Mo might also be extending to the diamond as well as we see both Baseball and Softball begin the season coming off red hot seasons. 

Lets also not forget that Uncle Mo has been doing some work on the Track as FAMU’s track program is laying a foundation for rattler pride to be exuded to even the like to the most down trodden rattler. 

It’s a good time to celebrate some wins.

The Basketball teams have losing streaks but the track team is finding its stride and the spring sports start this week.

But the big news in Rattler Nation is the success of the Restore the Strike fund raiser.

FAMU’s major officer and all of Rattler Nation are owed a huge congratulations and if you have not already made a contribution I hope to encourage you to make a small donation as many hands make light work.

It is a place of honor to see that FAMU is capable of raising that much money as a unit.

Phase One is Complete now on to Phase Two.

Both FAMU’s Men’s and Women's basketball teams have something to prove.

The ladies were humbled at home while the gentlemen walked out of the gym with a one point loss.

Despite these setbacks the Rattler Basketball team still finds itself near the top of the SWAC and in the Hunt for a Conference title.

Also the FAMU Track team heads to Clemson while the Tennis team gets into the swing of things.

We may also have some special guest Avengers on the show.
