    Congrats to our Seniors, thank you for being Redbirds. The weekend started with a No Hitter, and ended with a 3 game sweep of the Purple Aces to move back into 4th place. Thursday vs the 5/12 winner. Maybe a matchup with Bradley again. But then likely a match with the Egyptian Dogs (who...

    Taken to the woodshed this weekend. UNI is good and were on a 6 game winning streak which was extended to 9 with the sweep. The astro truf dome, lets blame it on that. Dropped back to 5th. 4 days of practice and then 3 vs the Purple Aces.

    MVC Conf tourney future sites

    I don't know any IHSA events are at the grossinger arena and it would be a neutral site. If there was an event, you could work out a deal to move that to RBA and everyone wins.

    You could argue having it in Bloomington then. Bring the economic impact to the Blo/No area, but separate it from campus. State Farm is a big basketball sponsor this would be in their backyard. 7200 seats

    Illinois State to the MAC?

    They should still grow the Computer Science more. Maybe go heavy into Cyber Security, even more than they already have. Maybe get noticed by the government and get extra funds there.

    2-1 Weekend, likely needed all 3 to have any chance at passing Belmont and holding off Bradley. 6 games left, 3 this weekend, 3 next. Still tied for 3rd, but technically 4th based on tie breakers, probably. The overall is likely the tie breaker with Belmont (we did not play them this year)...

    Coming soon . . . the Illinois High School Transfer Portal

    This was all over the news here in Chicago because some wrestler went from Downers North to Montini and wasn't allowed wrestle. That's likely where this issue started to take shape, because it's in the news and some lawyer wants to make a name, bla bla bla. But talking with parents of Jr High...

    Always a good day when you beat Bradley. Also move ahead of them by a game and hold the tie breaker by sweeping the series. I caught about 30 min of the game, very windy at the Louisville Slugger Complex, a couple of the cameras kept shaking from the wind, gave me a headache, just like the...

    Weather got better and so did the Lady Birds. Maybe we should march them out for basketball against Valpo, seeing they took all 3 this weekend. At least they know how to beat a last place team. Yes it took a walk off in the last game but a win is a win. 5th place now, unfortunately have to...

    Yes. Unfortunately it's an hour and a half away and my daughter has a game (or at least scheduled for one because who knows with rain). If it was Saturday, would totally be there.

    Dropped a pair of one run games. 1-2 series. Not looking good right now. I got to watch some of a couple of games on TV.

    Schertz looks to be Gone!

    If Pedon delivers a run like Schertz did for InSU. I'd be happy as crap to see him get a job elsewhere at 6 or 7X his ISU salary. The question is can you find someone with the same fire to come in behind them and capitalize on all the press and keep the ball rolling. That's why I feel Drake...

    Who do we go after? I asked ChatGPT:

    My daughter's softball team's montra is "If you ain't cheatin, you aint tryin". Worst that happens is someone from U of I changes the number on our page? HAHAHAHA

    Who do we go after? I asked ChatGPT:

    we are thinking about this all wrong. Let other university raise money, and then we hire some kids who know crap about computers to transfer that money into ours. Not our fault the U of I people put the wrong zelle or venmo number on their site and it went to ISU. And too bad transactions are...

    AEG & FOX SPORTS LAUNCH THE COLLEGE BASKETBALL CROWN: A REIMAGINED POSTSEASON COLLEGE HOOPS TOURNAMENT

    Problem is this tournament was created by 3 of the P6. It's to appease the people who backed up the brinks truck to broadcast their games. Yes it might stop after 3 years, but with it being on real TV, it has a better change at drawing money and advertisers. And it being in a destination...
