    Bricks near the Wildcat statue are doomed

    But, but, but didn't they get it right when making timely announcements of the new football coaches?

    Bricks near the Wildcat statue are doomed

    One wonders why they couldn't have found a space for them in the new stadium. I would have preferred that. Have no idea what Ill do with mine, maybe gift it back to my wife.

    Both my wife and I are concealed carry holders. We've both been trained in firearm safety, and for several years I helped teach women's classes on firearm safety, operation, and shooting instruction. Fortunately, the answer is no, so far, I've never been forced to even show. The second to...

    Nice to know there are at least two of us. If I remember correctly, you live in the Houston area. For 15 years, after I retired, I taught hundreds of people to Kiteboard at South Padre Island. Perhaps the greatest job I ever had, getting them to do something they thought they couldn't...

    CatMan and the wildcat 2011: IF you're worried about getting shot, I suggest you look for the guy packing a handgun rather than an AR 15. According to the latest (2022) FBI Crime Statistics data base Illinois had 842 homicides in 2022. 344 by handguns, 19 by rifle (ARs would be in this...

    I appreciate your response, rather deciding to just delete my post. Sigh. . . However your statement quoted, is not even close to what I assumed is the number of AR 15s owned per FOID card holder. I assumed ownership of AR 15s was somewhere between .625 AR 15s per FOID, to .83 AR15s per FOID...

    Yeah, it's a substitute for the IDGAS button! Check the Alert NU thread before my latest is gone.

    My second post was to pull your chain, which apparently, it did. However, my original post, which you chose to delete, was about the actual, versus perceived effectiveness, of the "Protect Illinois Communities Act", (PICA) that makes new purchases of previously legal firearms (AR 15's in...

    At the risk of either having my post deleted or being banned from the board, I would add a 4th - carry!

    Bob: I'm just wondering whether I've had more posts censored than you or vice versa. I'm getting pretty close to pushing the "why bother" button.

    Not you, you're pretty much on my side of the street. You can guess who it was directed at, and that would be none of the posters on this thread!

    Peeking ahead- what does next year look like?

    It looks like a portal point guard.

    Any Ryan field stuff being sold to the public?

    Nope, they're just crack troops, you know, the best NU can muster.

    Which Big Ten team / fan base do you dislike the most?

    Where is the "all of them" button?

    Any Ryan field stuff being sold to the public?

    I'd just like to get my brick back, unless they're going to re plant it in the new stadium. It would be nice to believe that, but given this administration and athletic department crack troops, that's a stretch.

    Some similarities I noticed last night, laugh if you want, but

    Also, don't forget Montana and Montana State. They're doin' it right there also. All of these teams arrive on the field with ATTITUDE. All four are tough physical teams. They play 1995 NU style football. You have to kill them to beat them!

    Some similarities I noticed last night, laugh if you want, but

    I saw a lot of North Dakota State in NU last night, and I've watched them a whole lot. What I saw was toughness, relentlessness, confidence, sacrifice, and team unity. Positive attitudes even when things are heading south. Coach Braun CAME to NU with these attributes, he didn't automatically...

    For those who want a copy of the game, but didn't record it last night

    like me! ESPNU is replaying the whole game today at 8PM central and again Tuesday 12/26 at 10 AM central. For me, it's worth another look.

    Who was there in 2001?

    Yep, went back to my brother-in-laws in Phoenix after the game. Then got stranded in Phoenix for about 4 days when all the flights were cancelled. Only a few things I remember about UNLV: 1) They served hard liqour at the concessions. 2) The parking lot was dirt. 3) UNLV stunk.
