No Words

For the kind of work that was done for the Homecoming festivities. It was an absolutely spectacular effort by each and every party involved, and there were many. Special props go out to G, K-Rock, LongMan, BigBro, Mary, Speedy, and whomever else made it straight through from the tailgate, which I christened at 7:30 AM, until the end of the bars early Sunday morning. There were dozens of bar tabs at 8 different bars, one near fight, one real fight, one stolen bike, and too many good stories to recount here. I may post about some of the hijinks tomorow, but suffice it to say, Saturday was as fun as football season can possibly be. As LongMan said Sunday morning, "I was out for almost 18 hours yesterday, and I didn't do anything that wasn't fun."

Thanks to TheMom for hosting all of us this weekend, getting the tailgate together, and a great hangover brunch (as usual).

The Hawks won big, but the defense did not play very well. We're at Purdue this coming week, and they are going to give us all we can handle. We need to get our act together, but I think we have it in us. If you're in the windy city, we'll see you at Sedgwick's. Better idea? Email me.

After Purdue, the Hawks are at home against Indiana, and the wrecking crew will have a home game as well here in Chicago. If you want to weigh in on locations and activities, go for it and we'll try to make it happen.

Weekends rule. It was good to see all of you in IC. In three weeks, when the hated Wolverines
come to town, we'll do it all over again.
