Chicago fought valiantly but came up
short 30-20 north of the cheese curtain.
But what is going on with the St. Louis
Rams? The one good thing about them is that they're now starting
Lincoln's Andy King. The Eagles did win 10-3, but without McNabb do
they have enough firepower to go far in the postseason? We think
not…

The Illini will have to play much
better against North Carolina on Tuesday than they did against
Western Illinois yesterday. Give WIU some credit, as they were
gritty and scrappy. Illinois, on the other hand, looked pretty
sloppy at times.

Brian Cook led the way with 17 points
and six rebounds. Cook also tallied his 1,166th point, which helped
him pass two former Illini greats, Kevin Turner (1,150) and Skip Thoren (1,164). In addition it was
the 87th start he has recorded in his illustrious career and the
60th time he's hit for double figures.
The Illini are now 28-1 at the Hall
under Bill Self and now have an all-time record of 98-12 against
in-state rivals.
The Illini honored the Hall's
seven-millionth fan, Dale Trulock. Basketball has been played in the
Hall since March of 1963. Last year Illinois sold out all of their
games for the first time in 30 years!

How 'bout those Railers? The Lincoln
squad went a sparkling 5-0 to win their own Turkey Shootout! Next up
for Lincoln is a road contest versus SH-G in Springfield.

No word on any of the area teams in

We did catch most of the Carroll
Catholic-Lincoln Junior High contest last week. What a barnburner
that one was! Great coaching by LJHS' Donnie Aeilts and CC's Todd
Lowman, who was filling in for Brian Brackney.
The Brackneys were a little busy
coaching their new little girl into the world. Rachel Ann Brackney
hit the scales at 9 pounds, 13 ounces and measured 21 inches long.
Congratulations to the Brackneys from the LDN!

The ISU Redbirds are struggling out of
the gate a little bit this year, falling to UIC 65-78. Gregg
Alexander was second in scoring with 12, but the 'Birds could not
find consistent scoring to get over the hump. Next up is a Monday
night contest with Chattanooga. (See
pre-game notes.)

"FANdamonium" is hoping to have some
very special guests on tonight' show. We're hoping that during our
middle, local segment we will have Mount Pulaski night! That's
right!
We're awaiting final confirmation even
now, but we hope to have state volleyball finalist coach Donna Dulle
and new Hilltopper coach Jim Jumper on tonight's show. If for any
reason that doesn't happen, we hope to have them both very soon.
Mount Pulaski has always had loyal and faithful fan support, and now
we understand that they're hooked up to our local cable system as
well. See you at 6 tonight!
Have a great
week, everybody!
