    Feeto's Friday Upset Special........

    Last Post: You guys are so smug and self-righteous that you seem to be looking for posters you can mock and ridicule. You are quick to criticize, and even quicker to take offense, but God forbid that any of it bounces back to you. I said in one of my posts that this board's like high school...

    Feeto's Friday Upset Special........

    You should look up the meaning of the word "horrific." If an Amtrak train collides with a freight train, killing 50 or 60 people, that would be horrific. If a train with a load of fuel oil derails in a town in Canada, burning 40 people to death, as one did in 2013, that would be unspeakably...

    Feeto's Friday Upset Special........

    Because you once lived in Park Ridge, every trauma that happens there has a personal effect on you you? You're like those goofball kids in college who need trigger warnings on their books and designated safe spaces where they can go when their tender feelings are bruised by insensitive speech.

    Feeto's Friday Upset Special........

    They'll have to identify the Maine South players from their dental records. Oh, wait. I take it back. I didn't know that you guys were so squeamish. You've never laughed at a morbid joke, or seen an episode of "The Walking Dead."

    Feeto's Friday Upset Special........

    Mount Carmel will run over Maine South just like that Metra train ran over a person in Park Ridge this morning.

    How did the "New Caravan" look?

    Swahili, thanks to you and all these other enlightening characters, my perspective is now as broad as the open, unfenced distances of the American West.

    Ignorant? I was there in '63, but I didn't see you in honors class.

    How did the "New Caravan" look?

    Swahili, a clarification: I did say in a second post that I was "Not sure Maine South can stop it.," expressing both faith in the team and an element of doubt, which is usually a sensible approach, especially this early in the season. I used the word "maybe" for the same reason, as in "maybe...

    How did the "New Caravan" look?

    Hey, MC63, I got up every morning and took the 63rd St. bus from Racine to Stony Island just so I could have the privilege of going to Mount Carmel. I didn't have a car like you. Swahili, you need to sharpen your reading skills or hire a proofreader. I didn't say that they could "run at will...

    How did the "New Caravan" look?

    Yes, such as that guy who picked Hinsdale Central over Naperville. Or all those guys who were gushing over Phillips in the first few minutes of the game. There were also several votes for Fremd over Lake Zurich, Rita over JCA, and Michigan City over H-F. As for me, I'll eat my slice of humble...

    Well, it's a long season, and we'll all have plenty of chances to be wrong.

    How did the "New Caravan" look?

    Believe it or not, Lynch had more passing attempts than rushing attempts at NIU. Maybe he didn't have the receivers. I don't think Carmel will be one dimensional. I think it will be a juggernaut, a blitzkrieg with both ground and aerial forces. Not sure Maine South can stop it.

    Jwarigiku. Is that Swahili for jagoff?

    Pretty wiped but a quick recap from today's NIU games?

    Yeah, Edgy, that's a lot of games, a lot of concentration. But you were the first to jump on Rice's band wagon. Good, early call.
