    Q: Once we get past COVID...what will you want to do?

    Hey wait, we're supposed to be the elitists!

    Q: Once we get past COVID...what will you want to do?

    What you and your ilk are missing from all of this is that if we had taken a statewide vote on a shut down, you would have lost. Like many these days, your preachy talk about democracy comes down to really just wanting things your way and whining when you're in the minority.

    New study finds what we thought it would

    Yeah, I looked back and saw the part i was referring to was a survey of 162 football teams, with a little over 8000 participants. So that's not a crazy transmission rate. Some encouragement, although it was during September when the covid numbers in the community in general weren't as large.

    New study finds what we thought it would

    So 126 schools reporting data have 86 cases. This is supposed to be good news? How many other cases did those 86 lead to I wonder? I clicked this link hoping to be cheered up and am disappointed.

    Edwardsville vs. West Aurora

    45-16 final. Good luck to Edwardsville at LWE next week. Hey KAR, are you sure about the Irish? You'd look great in Dan Mullen's offense down at Florida.

    Edwardsville vs. West Aurora

    WA punt and fumble in first two possessions, each followed by quick Eville TDs. Then WA drives the length of the field and is stopped on downs 2 yards short of the endzone. Eville drives the field again and its 42-10 end of 3rd.

    Crazy Way Tiebreaker For Utah HS Playoffs

    I'm sure there's a multiple wives joke to be made here, but I'll leave that alone. When I first read the link, I was imagining some sort of 3 way checkers version of football. That would be interesting. I like the way they actually do it though, more fun than a coin flip or something. I...

    IHSA Football: So what needs to change?

    Think of it as Maine South stole West Aurora's spot by beating them so they became the #7 seed or whatever. WA wasn't hosting anyone after that, so why shouldn't MS have the home game, at least against any seed they play that's lower than #7? But I agree, it doesn't seem right if the #26 was...

    Yorkville Places to eat

    Respectfully disagree, try Rowdy's. Or go to Mike and Denise's if you have people with you that want a variety of stuff. I actually think Bristol Tap has the best burgers, but they're probably pretty busy by now and it's a smaller place.

    favorite non homer team to watch/root for

    I feel like you're better off getting some experience in the playoffs, as a program, and getting a taste of what that's like and what you need to do to win. Rather than only occassionally making playoffs when you have a really stellar group, and no one knows what to do in the playoffs and it...

    favorite non homer team to watch/root for

    Maybe, I don't know much about them. I know they don't consider themselves Aurora at all, so its not like losing a neighborhood rivalry. It's just the grind, I'm not afraid to say it. No more than the Wheatons were for leaving, or Oswegos for not joining. What's the upside?

    favorite non homer team to watch/root for

    What blossoms can wither fast without the right conditions. Rejoining the DVC means a weekly grind to have a chance at making the playoffs. WA would still be starting behind the 8 ball, because despite all the progress in the program, they aren't Naperville, and don't have the same resources as...

    favorite non homer team to watch/root for

    If it was so perfect, why did WA leave several years ago? And what's changed? As long as the Oswegos don't bail on the Southwest Prairie and there is some continuity for a change, this move is in the best interests of West Aurora. A move to the DVC is in the best interests of the DVC. The...

    What conference gets exposed this weekend?

    I'm not sure what your issue with West Aurora is, but you obviously have one. They were 16 yards away from making it 28-21 a minute or two into the 4th. After stopping WA on that 4th and 1 from the NC 16, Central ran the ball 8 times to go those 84 yards for the final score, eating up almost...
