    Football GO ILLINI!!

    @zlw1 I was happy when Maryland and Rutgers joined the Big 10, since I knew the sports would be at least competitive, on par with the rest of what the Big 10 usually puts together. Now that we have Oregon, USC (not great this year, I agree!), and others, its frustrating since it seems like...

    Football GO ILLINI!!

    OK, so I ditched the Cowboys logo, and am back to the ILLINI! Let's talk about a 6-1 start, that's the best football team we have had in YEARS! Beating Michigan yesterday, ranked #22, this is a great start for us!!

    OMGosh - the post office

    OK, so this week's episode of "Why Do You Break My Heart, USPS?" My little son ordered a figure from Feebay last week, Florida to Southern Illinois. Here's the tracking history: The most frustrating part: IT WAS IN ST. LOUIS! 45 minutes from home, and then USPS inexplicsbly sent it to South...

    Baseball World Series Winner?

    @pinetarboys Its rough, no doubt. Hopefully it turns into a more competitive series, I know the Guardians are better than they have been playing!

    Baseball World Series Winner?

    Ok, so Dodgers are up 3-1 on the Mets, one game from going to another World Series! Yankees and Guardians stand at 2-1, its anyone's to win at the moment, though I think its going to be the Yankees who go to the WS. I am changing my vote, the Dodgers are playing amazing baseball at the moment!!

    Baseball World Series Winner?

    @grapler135s you are totally right, I thought that the LA/SD series was going to predict the eventual WS winner!

    Baseball World Series Winner?

    @grapler135s What a surprise that you voted for the Dodgers!! In all honesty, I may change my vote, I don't know that the Yankees could beat them in the World Series, LA is just playing some great baseball right now!!

    Baseball World Series Winner?

    Hey all, So we have Cleveland vs. NY Yankees in the ALCS and Dodgers vs. NY Mets in the NLCS. Will it be another Subway Series in New York? A rematch of the great Series in the 50s where the Yankees and then-Brooklyn Dodgers were so dominant? Does Cleveland make a splash and win it all this...

    Halloween Fun!! 🎃

    So this weekend I rewatched the original Dracula: And Wolf Man: Chaney Jr also donned the cape, this one was odd to see as an adult: Much creepier than I remember as a kid! Then I dug into a few of the no-no movies from when I was a kid, the English Hammer movies. Not gonna lie, they were...

    Halloween Fun!! 🎃

    I just gave those VHS tapes to my colleague who collects, she was very excited to get them, saying her husband loves the old time monsters! I said that I picked them up for a buck at the yard sale, and I remember collecting those as a child, I was 10 in 1991 when Universal first re-released the...

    Halloween Fun!! 🎃

    Talk about perfect timing! I went to a neighbor's yard sale this afternoon, and found a bag of horror VHS tapes for a friend who collects them....for a buck apiece, half price since today's their last day! A few classics from the original Universal Monsters Classic Collection, who remembers...

    Topps Did Good: 2015 Bowman's Best Case

    @horfin @everwake I have also heard stories about Panini not being nearly as good as Topps....I jokingly sent in redemptions from the 80s to Topps one time about 5 years ago, and they sent me a few cards, no HOFers, but it was fun to get something back! Cheers! Kevin
