  1. here are a couple of those calls. The ATrain fumble happened right in front of us. we were in the horseshoe in that corner. Everyone, including all the Illinois fans, thought it was a facemask. well, it wasn't really close to a facemask. so it goes to show what illini fans know.
  2. no. nor should we seek to trade zambrano.
  3. the undead war chiefs of the 12 tribes of the illini nation carry him off the field.
  4. the running up of the score was only done in response to dan hamhuis's disgraceful flopping against the boards in game 5 of the predators' series.
  5. leshoure rushed for 330 yards in a one-way game during the first football contest at wrigley field in 40 years. what the [expletive] else do you need, a legion of mini-ditkas carrying him off the field? for [expletive]'s sake man.
  6. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXsNq9eo0cM how did i miss this for so long?
  7. here are a couple of those calls.
  8. i hope they don't do it every year, or regularly. this game was kind of legendary, and will go down in illinois lore and will be up there with griffith's 8 touchdowns and grange's 4 touchdowns in one quarter against michigan's impregnable defense.
  9. one of the most amazing things i've ever seen on a basketball court, no doubt. he real good. what a class that was.
  10. i don't know, the public was tired of getting jobbed, and it was a nearly every fan everywhere felt that replay should be instituted. after an important nationally-televised night game between unbeatens got totally blown up, i don't think it much mattered what important figures were behind it, it was going to happen because fans and alumni wanted it.
  11. no, that was illinois-michigan 2000 when a-train kept fumbling and they kept ruling him down and illinois kept not fumbling and they kept ruling that they had fumbled. sorry sulley, no one gives a rip about Illinois. Now when Penn St, Michigan and OSU start losing games with some questionable reffing, thats when things change say what you want but it was a national game and a complete embarrassment for the referees and the big ten. they kept showing the replays over and over and over. i'm not saying it was the only reason, but it was a contributing factor, li'l ol' U of I or not. EDIT: if anything, replay is to combat the bias towards the big super-sexy mega-schools, to level the playing field a bit.
  12. no, that was illinois-michigan 2000 when a-train kept fumbling and they kept ruling him down and illinois kept not fumbling and they kept ruling that they had fumbled.
  13. tell us how you really feel.
  14. on inside the nfl, they had martz wired upfor the viking game, his reaction to the cutler interception in the end zone was hilarious. he just says "oh, jay no." and he didn't really even shout it, it was more an expression of hurt. i laughed. it was like jay had woken up from the matrix and begun unplugging people one by one like cypher did while his father looks on in horror.
  15. *points at avatar* sukka eh, give them some coins and ship them home, they'll have a tale to tell their grandchildren.
  16. feels good to beat up on fancy pattie.
  17. and ford has almost 100 yards and 3 tds. man, if we could have beaten michigan and minny.
  18. leshoure is having a real good day.
  19. we'll always find a way to blow it. imagine if persa were playing.
  20. now that is some hard-hitting insight and analysis.
  21. we are the best team in the NBA if we get melo. we gotta keep the pressure on the nuggets to accept our very generous offer.
  22. yeah, i think they will regardless. they have a good team, even if they are chuckers.
  23. I read that earlier today. It just seems bizarre. Why would Bill Carmody run off a talented kid like Coble if he was actually capable of coming back and playing this season? There has to be something more at play here. according to some rumors, coble had no friends on the team, was on a family trip in hawaii during the italy tour, and was seen often playing pickup basketball during the summer.
  24. http://espn.go.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/18359/coble-left-northwestern-over-injury-dispute interesting commentary regarding kevin coble and his decision not to play basketball this year.
  25. gypsy curse, or possibly their underground robot army.
