A message for those geeks over at IlliniPundit …

November 25, 2006 in The Sports Page Tags:

The Bradley Braves are SOOOOOOO going to kick kick the U of I’s butt tomorrow.

That will teach his commenters to mouth off about which city has the best basketball teams.

Yes, I am the guy who once said this. I have since learned my lesson and now I am a member of the Church of the Three-Point-Shot and am a devout follower of the Rev. Jim Les. And I’d rather be wrong in predicting a BU victory than right in predicting a loss.

Besides, since the state high school basketball championships are played at the Peoria Civic Center, it’s only fitting that the city is now home to the state’s best college basketball team.

    I say you make this interesting. Gordy has to do a Lou Do picture if Braves win. You have to do a Versace hairdo for a picture.

    I doubt there’s a hard drive in the world with enough storage to hold an image of Dick Versace’s hair.

    But I will make this wager, if Gordy Hulten has the *ahem* testicular fortitude to accept. If he agrees to change his header image to the score of the game, I will agree to do the same.

    Since I have no doubt what-so-ever that BU will win, I can’t lose.

    The header image will have to run for a full 24 hours straight on a workday. That will give up both time to do the rather simple Photoshop task.

    I’m in.

    Yesterday was our worst game all year, and your best. If we play that badly two games in a row, we deserve to lose.

    This win could give Bradley the forward momentum they need to face Evansville and Drake, while Illinois can then focus on (3)Ohio State and (7)Wisconsin. And (24)Maryland. And (15)Arizona. et al.

    EIU down 10-3 to ISU in the second quarter of I-AA football playoffs. Comeon Pnathers!

  6. Billy Dennis Says:

    IP: A little correction. TONIGHT will be UI’s worse game of the year.
    ;-)

    So Bradley wins tonight. It’ll be a topic among Illini fans until, oh, about Wednesday, while it’ll be a topic among Bradley fans until, oh, about 2031.

    Wisconsin, losers to Missouri State? All of those rankings that you stated mean that the Big Ten is overrated, as usual.
    :)

  9. Super J Says:

    Illinois wins.

    In other news, the sun will be rising tomorrow morning.
