The French were just salty that Trump one-upped there May Day parade. Oh wait, I meant Bastille Day, we didn’t display the missile launchers. 

Well, in the case of Alex Morgan, it was “sip tea on the graves of the doubters”. 

The word ILLINOIS was not added to the flag until 1969, at the request of a soldier in Viet Nam. His base displayed all the state flags but it was not clear which state the white flag with an eagle seal on it represented, so he requested the addition. 

Turning a triple play against the fastest base runner on the Astros. And only the fourth time in 50 years that a team had a grand slam and triple play in the same game. 

Pretty sure Sarah’s wrong when she mentions the census of 1965.

Now that the glass ceiling has been shattered, maybe we can go back and look at North Carolina one more time.

Michigan has experience taking down Big Ten championship banners. Tractor Traylor - cough cough.

Well Fox Sports is too busy ignoring the MSU - Olympic gymnastic scandal, so doubt they’ll cover much from Korea.

He also ran in 2000, but I guess we can chalk that up to Fake News.

Of course they are covering their asses. Have you seen the size of their contracts?

After the first successful onside kick, why wouldn’t the receiving team put ten players up at the line to make sure they recovered the second onside kick? There were at leas six players dropped back to set up a return, who had no role in the ensuing scrum.

The university has consistently managed to be tone deaf on this issue, trying to straddle a middle ground, where there is none. Any good, derived from the correct decision to drop the war chant, is completely undone, by their ham handed non-communication of the decision.  

I don’t quite understand the title of the article. I am familiar with the terms Chicagoland and Chi-Town, or Second City / Windy City, but never have I heard it called Chi City.

The best thing I can say about that picture is the dude is dead and buried in Holy Sepulcher cemetery. Not to far from my parents.

Don’t you mean “ble$$ed”.

I blame WGN. When it became a superstation with the Cubs (like TBS and the Atlanta Braves) and the Sox made do with a shitty UHF signal on WFLD, the dye was cast.

Michigan should have lost that game. Illinois’ Chris White (Mike White’s son) clanked a winning field goal off the upright at the end of regulation. No overtime in those days. Never saw a more dejected crowd filing out of a game.

I saw a Hawk nail one in our back yard the other day. The only thing left behind was blue feathers.

Just an example of the hypocrisy of the NCAA. Other schools forced to drop their native american imagery, but not FSU, because with the NCAA it’s all about the Benjamins.

Living in Champaign IL, I’ve already been down this rabbit hole with Chief Illiniwek. I think the revised black hawk logo for the Blackhawks is a 100% winner.
