whitesoxfan101 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 TCU, with their great defense, somehow blows a 17-3 lead at Air Force and falls 20-17 in overtime, wow. And West Virginia....they pretty good. I thought Maryland did a decent job on defense, and they still lose by 3 possesions and give up 31 points and 300 rushing yards. And yeah, Noel Devine's HS tapes weren't some kind of joke, he reminds me so much of Barry Sanders the way he runs. Not saying he is that good, but the style is so similar.

Heads22 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 You Will Suffer Humiliation When The Sports Team From My Area Defeats The Sports Team From Your Area The Onion As you can see from the calendar, the game is coming up this weekend. I'm sure you are as excited for it as I am, as our cities are rivals and have been for quite some time. Your confidence in your team is high, but rest assured, you will suffer humiliation when the sports team from my area defeats the sports team from your area. On numerous occasions, you have expressed the conviction that your area's sports team will be victorious. I must admit that every time I hear you make this proclamation, I react with both laughter and disbelief. "Ha!" I say to myself with laughter. "What?!" I say to myself in disbelief. How could you believe that your sports team could beat my sports team? It is clear that yours is inferior in every way. When the sporting contest begins, the players on your team will be treated as though they are inconsequential. It will be remarkably easy for my team to accumulate more points than yours. There are many reasons for this, starting with the inferior physical attributes of the players representing your area. Strength, speed, and agility are just three of the qualities that the players on the team from your area lack. The players representing my area, on the other hand, have these traits in abundance. I would not be a bit surprised if the individuals on the team from your area were sexually attracted to members of their own gender. That is how ineffective they are on the field of battle. Underscoring your team's inferiority is its choice of colors. It is ludicrous to believe that your team's colors inspire either respect or fear. Instead, they appear to have been chosen by someone who is colorblind or, perhaps, bereft of sight altogether. The colors for my team, on the other hand, are aesthetically pleasing when placed in proximity to one another. They are a superior color combination in every way. While we are on the subject of aesthetics, let us compare the respective facilities in which our teams play. While my team's edifice is blessed with architectural splendor and the most modern of amenities, yours is a thoroughly unpleasant place in which to watch a sporting contest. I know of what I speak, for I once attended a game between our respective teams in your facility. Let's just say the experience left me wishing that my car was inoperable that day due to mechanical problems, rendering it impossible for me to get to your area to attend the game. If you need another reason why the sporting franchise representing my area is superior, look no further than the supporters for the two sides. Not only are the supporters of the team from my region more spirited, but they are also more intelligent and of finer breeding than you and the rest of your ilk. In addition, the female supporters of the team from my area possess more attractive countenances and figures than yours. Some of the women from my side that I have observed could make a living by posing for pictures for major men's magazines. The women who cheer for your team, I'm afraid, are far too unattractive to do so. One of the more pathetic aspects of the team from your area is the fact that only people in your immediate area possess an affinity for it. By means of contrast, the team from my area inspires loyalty and affection in individuals who live in many other geographic locations. To illustrate this point, let me tell a brief story: Recently, I was on vacation in an area of the country far away from my own, and I saw many individuals wearing items of clothing that bore the insignia of my team. I approached one such individual and asked him if he originated from my area. He said no, explaining that he simply liked the team from my area and had for many years. Interestingly enough, during this trip, I saw no clothing or other paraphernalia bearing the insignia of your team. Do you still doubt that the team from your area is inferior to the one from mine? Just look at our teams' respective histories. In the past, we have defeated you on any number of occasions. Granted, there were times when your team beat my team, but those were lucky flukes. The day of the game will soon be at hand. And no matter how hard you pray to a higher power or how many foam accoutrements you wear in support of the team from your area, your team will be defeated. We will win and you will lose. This is your fate. Prepare for humiliation. It shall be upon you at the designated hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been told he's been back here since Tuesday, and at football team academic meetings the past few days at NIU. If that's accurate, apparently he could be eligible to play next year even though we are 1-A. I can't confirm the eligibility stuff, but I can confirm with 99.99 percent certainty he is now an NIU Huskie, which is pretty exciting for us.

WHarris1 Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Solid win for Illinois, albeit against a bad Syracuse team. Juice looked in control of the offense and strong on the ground. Mendenhall is a f***in God, Pollard looks really good. Starting D was very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Well this years NIU team is going to go about 3-9, but we'll have Demetrius Jones and almost the rest of the team (only 9 seniors), so my senior year could be fun next year at least. And the Illini doing what they should do is nice to see, and lol, Northern Iowa now has the best basketball AND football team in it's state. Outstanding.
