Illinois High School Football Thread
Holy cow. Why play so many tough games? Will we even make the playoffs? Looks to me like like every game except DePaul and Notre Dame are tossups at best. ... Congrats to Marist for somehow beating Benet for the state basketball title. Held Benet's offense to nothing. Marist must have a heckuva coach in bball. Do they have any college prospects? I think Benet has one or two. Benet barely beat the Kleinschmidt's in the semis then again failed to score many pts vs Marist.

Sincere congratulations to your son. Tell him we Rice grads are so happy we got a coveted state title thanks in large part to the linemen. How far a drive is Norbert's from your house? Will u drive to many games? Keep us posted on his progress. Is Norbert's known for good football?

2026 Olympics
Wow. As Sally Field would say, "You hate me. You really hate me." I loved her special skate and loved Team USA hockey. Pulling the goalie early worked and the OT win was legendary.

2026 NFL off season thread
Is Wolf Lake nice? I see it's only 20-30 miles from downtown Chicago? No big deal to drive there. That said ... do u guys think this is really a possibility? Or are the Bears just using their neighbors for leverage only to stay in Illinois? Pritzger made it sound like they are close to a deal with the Bears. Weird that the Bears would put out some news singing Indy's praises a day after a positive meeting with Pritzger's team. He said it was 3 hour meeting and they are close to a deal. So what's gonna happen? I say 80-20 Bears build a new stadium in Illinois.

2026 Olympics
Thrilling comeback victory for USA women's hockey. Pulling the goalie worked! Then the OT goal. That's dramatic stuff of legends. Was mesmerized by the great women's figure skating victory. Alysa Liu was perfect in her routine. Not one mistake. Great comeback story. The Olympics still works for me as long as the athletes don't get up on the podium and bash America. I totally buy into the stories of hard work and am a sucker for the athletes' reactions on the podium when they are full of joy not political angst. GO USA! Women's hockey and Liu! Heroes in my eyes.

I need to watch this in its entireity. I almost forgot we had to beat Rita a second time to take the title. We usually play somebody like Lincoln Way in big games.

That'd be a bill of about 20,000 I'd suspect. I'm sure they want to give rings to the freshmen, sophs, varsity players and coaches and also the longtime PA guy and others. They shoulda just done a gofundme. I think most Rice grads would give at least 500 to 1000. What a nice guy to do that for the kids/coaches.

Caulfield u have lived overseas a long time. Has your Chicago accent left you completely? Is your voice all different? Are you a lot healthier cause of the food over there not being as infested with chems and junk?

2026 Spring Training Thread
I've been optimistic til this. BTW it shouldn't be called a rebuild. If so it'd be a rebuild of an unsuccessful rebuild. The last rebuild didn't end.

Caulfield is in the running for board MVP. 1.) Caulfield. 2.) Fathom. 3.) All the Brother Rice grads.

Player suing White Sox...
Didn't most teams in all sports demand players get the shot(s)? I remember a lot of places were firing people for not getting the shot. I'll stop here before issuing an opinion that might get me in trouble on here.

Sox sign Fedde (2026)
No risk. What if he's good? I think the Sox are in a spot they think they can flirt with .500 and that means contention so they adding bodies.

Munemania: Murakami and Judge pacing each other
Embarrassing lack of class and ineptitude ... wonder what our play by play guy will nickname this budding star.

OD 26 Man Roster Projection
That's true. There's no reason to welcome losing any more. The Sox have more than a handful of useful to very good players so might as well win this pathetic division. If the Sox are soon to become a perennial contender, a WS isn't out of the question in the next five years because anything can happen in the postseason.
