    Benson transferring? Whoa!

    That block of that particular street is Winnetka on both sides. It becomes Kenilworth slightly to the east.

    Word is that Screamer just bought a house in Northfield. Discuss.

    The Screamer Has Been Silenced

    I was in the handful of front rows down in Indy for the Big Ten Title. 4th, 5th. Something like that. Literally 10 feet from them. I had never sat that close to the band before. I loved every second of it!! GCG is 100% right on this.

    how do students feel about silencing a student?

    So I’ll take that as tacit acknowledgment that there’s never been a fan as obnoxious or disruptive to other fans’ experience. Fair enough. You say it’s silly to make her stop now, given that she’s only got 7 weeks left. That shriek has been a verbal fart in our 7,000 person elevator for 3...

    how do students feel about silencing a student?

    The fact that this woman has a nickname and is notorious and has had articles written about her constant B movie shrieking pretty much says it all. But OK. You've raised a fair point. A point I’m sure you can back up with examples. So in all your years of fandom, just name one NU fan...

    NU Fans & Students Should Be Ashamed

    I’ll see your idea about giving tickets away and raise you. We should do what the White Sox did for years when I was a kid (and may still do for all I know) and give away a pair of tickets to kids who get straight A’s or have perfect attendance. I’m sure a lot of people here remember this...

    NU - a "sub-par talent team" per this Utah OP...

    Apparently, some Utah fan was saying we have no talent based on star rating and measureables (I didn’t watch the video). I disagee. We have lots of talent. I understand the perception, though. It’s a constant topic of discussion among NU fans. I’m just saying that the best way to show...

    NU - a "sub-par talent team" per this Utah OP...

    Defeatism? You must be joking. Yes, I almost lost my mind over the Nebraska game. And I’ve taken my lumps over it ever since. But I think we’re right on the verge of greatness with our facilities and our West title and new QB etc. No defeatism here. None at all.

    NU - a "sub-par talent team" per this Utah OP...

    The topic of the thread was the perception of NU in the eyes of other teams like Utah. They think we have no talent. I suggest that the only way to change that perception is to win against top teams. You apparently disagree and think the way to change perceptions is to try shout down the...

    ND Didn't Belong

    Until they play a real conference schedule, this argument falls flatter than Turk’s flat earth. It’s over. None of the Emeperors of South Bend wear clothes. They never did. All their titles came by biased votes.

    NU - a "sub-par talent team" per this Utah OP...

    We played 3 and lost to all 3. We need to win with our chosen guys or else the story will alway be that we don’t land the talent to beat the bigs, and then we’ll start launching into excuses about admission requirements and graduation rates and keep justifying our position in the football world...

    NU - a "sub-par talent team" per this Utah OP...

    Until we start beating the top teams, this is what is always going to happen until we start landing stud guys that a bunch of top teams want. If we had beaten UM and ND and OSU this year, the storyline would have changed and it would be how Fitz and Co have a Rasputin-like eye for actual...

    Thank you. That makes sense.
