Through with Illini for football season

A recent issue of the Chicago Tribune carried an article which bore the following headline – "There is no 'D' in Illini." I would add nor is there any "O." This season, for most intents and purposes, is done. So am I. I will not attend another game – using that term loosely.

What do we have to look forward to next season? A coach who cannot coach, a quarterback who cannot throw and an "All-American" wide receiver who would have trouble becoming an all-star in the St. Joseph Pee-Wee Football League.

I have heard that the Quarterback Club, in honor of the stellar team play, may change its name to the "Illinois Nickelback Club."

Being a longtime Cubs fan, I am well versed in the motto "wait until next year."
