    What a difference a year makes!

    A TRUE "Cat Man" would realize that Northwestern is a FOUNDING MEMBER of the Conference. Therefore the "Power Programs" have next to nothing to say about NU's continued/future membership in the B1G. (Read the conference bylaws if you don't believe me)

    Cats ranked 16th

    And where are the Washington Huskies ranked? (where I happened to go to graduate school, BTW) Doesn't make sense to me!

    Tourney Games - Now

    Sadly the Norse just hit their Gotterdammerung. :P (Just a little Opera humor going on here.)

    Very Purple Pre-Game Party

    Thanks, Coral. I'm so sorry to hear the news, even though I suspected that's what had happened. I truly loved Jerry's "Purple Parties" and I hope there's a way to pick them up in the future. They were the BEST 'Cats parties I've ever been to -- Jerry sure had a knack for doing these events...

    Nest game.

    Exactly what is a "nest game" anyway? Is it a game for a certain type of fan who has birds in his belfry? (Apologies if wrassler doesn't know what a belfry is.)

    Watch party at WRA?

    No offense, but the NUBB (basketball band) is in Sacramento for tonight's game. It would be a bit of a challenge to split the Band in two. But I appreciate your Purple-tinted thought!!

    Very Purple Pre-Game Party

    Louie, is it correct to assume that FloridAlum is no longer with us? I used to attend most of his "Purple Parties" and I loved them! I'm sure he will be sorely missed, and I'm glad that WR has honored him by giving his name to the "main" message board on WR.

    Do you want to watch the 1996 Rose Bowl game versus USC?

    This would be the same Keyshawn Johnson who illegally had tutors complete his course assignments for him? I want to see the version of the 1995 Rose Bowl where he gets the suspension that he richly deserved. Y'all do know that USC was required to forfeit all their wins in 1995, including the...

    Teddy G's article

    At the risk of getting pummeled by some old-timers, what about hiring Saint Gary as an offensive consultant? As I recall, he led the Colorado Buffaloes to a National Championship before coming to Northwestern, and he might be ready for a move from the Broadcast Booth to the sidelines. I bet...

    Why pull Hunter?

    I think we can safely chalk up the Aiden Smith experiment in the "TOTAL DISASTER" column. :(

    Why pull Hunter?

    That didn't work out very well. :(

    Sparty @NU Prediction Thread

    Are these by any chance Japan's famous Snow Monkeys (macaques) in Nagano? Surely the football gods are willing to forgive the omission of Reindeer Sausage this time if you'd be willing to substitute a Giant Bluefin Tuna instead. ;) Might be difficult to bring home as a carry-on, however...

    Sparty @NU Prediction Thread

    Is this by any chance based on a recent Moose Sighting? Surely your berry patch must be in season by now. :D
