We're coming for you... 8 days left Herky.
The Most High Clerics of the Evil Wizardry Guild have appointed me to deliver a message. So that you can understand me, I must ask that you remove your arcane memory-constrictors and peer back into the dark hours of your history. Let us recall the recent triumphs:
If a frenchman can do it ...
Brett Basanez - 2005
... an Asian can do it ...
CJ Bacher - 2006 & 2008
... and a lanky goddamn philosopher can do it ...
Mike Kafka - 2009
... then you can bet your amorphous, over-sized, corn-fed asses a hobbit can do it ...
Dan Persa - 2010
PREPARE YOUR SPELLS HERKY

Well done, sir
Unfortunately for jNW, this team seems to be able to remember past performances and use them as fuel. Just ask Sparty. Unless you take out Stanzi again, anticipate something that you would like to forget in the future.
/well-intentioned smack talk
Never count out the Wizgerald
… but yeah after seeing the Nigh-Unwatchable Spartan Massacre of 2010 – I’m not feeling real good about it.
You got me
I am totally jealous of your usage of Lord of the Rings metaphors in trash talking. Totally.
I wish I were as cool as you, Dildo Baggins.
Brunettes not fighter jets
Dude
The majority of specific references were Dungeons & Dragons, which your pro bro pointed out below with his witty-as-fuck Second Edition comment.
And yeah, it’s nice to be able to trash talk when you’ve won 4 of the last 5 meetings.
Yeah?
Well, your starting runningback is named Trumpy. I hated that episode. It was really boring. Northwestern should never have been allowed to ally themselves with crappy European filmmakers.

"We're Coming For You"? But it's a home game...
…oh, well. I guess it’s exciting when anyone attends Ryan Field on jNW’s behalf.
Less memorable than Sam Okey's Hawkeye career.
Wrigley should be a great setting for the battle over the Sweet Sioux Tomahawk Land of Lincoln Trophy. Top Hat on a Box.
FUCK YEAH
Top hat on a box comin’ home to Evanston.
Also, at least it isn’t the Land Grant Trophy… blurgggh
True
Or the Telephone Trophy. Or, for that matter, the CyHawk Trophy. I just realized that Iowa State plays for some ugly trophies. At least we can offset the CyHawk with Floyd and the Heartland Trophy (which I actually think looks good).
Tear.
Dude don’t mention that H* trophy for 2 or 3 years

I'm really interested in that game.
I had really high hopes for outdoor hockey at Wrigley but the actual execution was kind of unimpressive. One of my favorite parts of the fan experience at hockey games is the proximity of the fans to the rink and it seems like that was completely eliminated in that Hawks/Wings game.
I’m trying to picture what the fan experience is going to be like for Cats and Illini fans. Obviously a football field is much bigger than a hockey rink, so hopefully fans can get closer to the field in this game.

A little something like this...

But holy mother of baseball I hope they cut the grass in line with the field before the game.
Exactly
Except with Illini fans

Good luck catching too much of it on TV.
It’s on at 2:30pm CST, the same time as the OSU/Iowa game.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I don't know about at Wrigley
But after seeing two Wisconsin hockey games in football stadiums (WI-OSU @ Lambeau and WI-Michigan @ Camp Randall) I can say that there’s something special about 50-60k fans at a hockey game that can offset the distance from the rink.
Not only is there an actual secondary market for tickets to a jNW game...
… it’s actually fairly lucrative.
Will wonders never cease.

Ryan Field is officially Kinnick East.
Before you respond, let me remind you: Brian Cook called me smug, which makes me the Obama of smugness. I'm basically Smugbama.
Not so much this year...
You’ll have a big chunk to be sure but based upon previous weeks I’d expect to see 75% of Ryan in purple.
Now I cannot say for sure how loud they’ll be… given all the crotchety old fuckers.
Well your seats are purple, so that makes sense.

Rumors of NU fan extinction are exaggerated...
While the creature is quiet, and often reclusive, NCAA ecologists assure as that at least a couple hundred still exist.

Your mocking of karma is additional proof of the transient nature of jNW football fandom. Team A beats jNW, “That’s ok, we don’t care about football anyway.” Team A loses to jNW, “Hahahahahaha, you guys suck and we ruined your season.” Ugh. Fans just don’t mess with the football gods.
I don't see how that follows.
After a loss I still care about football, and I don’t want the team to win just to ruin others seasons, I want the team to have success and compete in a good bowl game.
Karma – as in the belief that the universe keeps some magic counter of your “good” and “bad” actions and fucks with the laws of physics to balance each person’s happiness / sadness with their tally – is fucking absurd and what I don’t believe in.
Calling Karma 'fucking absurd'
is most certainly bad karma. Enjoy herpes.

In the past 10 years, just four team owners have not paid a luxury tax and are not on pace to pay one this year: Donald Sterling, Jerry Reinsdorf, Chris Cohen (Golden State), Bob Johnson (Charlotte).
Two owners’ teams averaged an operating income of over +$10 million per year while their teams have lost over 60% of their games: Donald Sterling and Jerry Reinsdorf.

Yes, the second half made me feel much better about next week
of the PSU/jNW game, not the Iowa game. The latter still makes me shudder this morning. Wondering if the Fitzard can conjure up a run defense in a week?
