Depending on what the hurricane does I would love a chat on Monday for Tulsa - Denver. We can see how thie Billy Joe does at QB in his 2nd game...If the hurricane comes towards Louisiana I wont be around for the chat

Ditto. I have finished filling my sandbags and hoping that Northern Illinois can dodge this one. If not, I'm on a bye anyway...

Did you capitalize "Northern" because you're at NIU? Or just out of respect for the denizens of your sector of the Land of Lincoln?

I ask 'cuz I live in "Central Illinois" - Springfield, to be exact.

I mean Northern Illinois, as in North of I-80. Central Illinois is a pipe dream, as anything South of I-80 is Southern Illinois, a.k.a. land of the filth-eating hayseeds.

JK. To answer your question, I meant the stateline area and not NIU.

My question for you is how does a Packer fan end up in Central IL? Better yet, how does one in Central IL become a Packer fan?

By having grown up in Wisconsin and relocating to Illinois for a job (exactly one year ago today, I might add!). Of course I got from there to here via Chicago (where I lived for 6 years) and Tucson (9 years).

Of course, even native Central Illinoisians take note of the shimmering beacon of light, hope, and truth that is the Green Bay Packers football club. I see quite a lot of Packers paraphernalia down here.

Yessiree, some bright people down here. But then there are the poor, poor Bears fans...

The little lady and I already have plans tonight, so I'm afraid I won't be able to make it...

I should be here- might be playing Halo, but I think I can pull myself away from that long enough to make the chat...

Man, now your sounding like a Cubs fan. Unfortunately I know the tell tale signs too well.

There is Green Bay Packer paraphernalia. I for one believe it should be banned in the same manner as the fireworks are in Illinois. You should have to go over the border to find it.
