"They say the glee team has lured stragglers into sniper traps with cheery renditions of hit songs." "Really? And people fall for that?"

I totally expected to see this as the BP Football Cup

What is a horse shoe? What does a horse shoe do? Are there any horse socks? Is anybody listening to me?

I suppose if you can sell it, you might as well....

I wonder if this is going to become a yearly thing for these two teams? Sure it’s a smaller stadium for UI and it’s a bit far from Champaign, but there are a ton of UI alumn in the Chicago area. It’s not like they’d have a hard time getting people out for the game.

that being said, GO NU!!!

In a dream world

In a dream world the new Cubs manager attends the game to watch his alma matter beat the heebeejeebees out of Illinois.

For those that don’t know Joe Girardi is a Northwestern graduate. He’s one of the few ballplayers who might be making big money without the game.

Formerly known as cubstoseriesby100. Thanks Al for letting me change my outdated screenname.
