Jordan Lynch would be a good coach for Purdue to build a relationship with. He is stockpiling D1 talent on Chicago's South Side.

🤣

I agree , they are just pressuring Illinois to do something. I could see Illinois politicians screw it up as well . Chicago is not called the Windy City because of Wind .

Sure, if the Bears build and maintain those roadways they should be able to charge for their use. Actually sounds like a great model for most roadways in general.

I’ve been a licensed IHSAA Basketball Official for eight years. I think I do a pretty decent job being a solid arbiter of the rules of the game. My daughter plays on a 10u softball team based in our town. I’ve coached baseball and softball for a few years—but I’ve never umpired. I’ve got a good handle on the rules, especially at the 14u level and below. We needed a plate ump for a scrimmage last week for our 12u team. I volunteered to do it. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in an officiating capacity. Idk how patched umpires are as consistent as they are. I’ve never been one to argue balls/strikes, but I definitely won’t now. I’d encourage anyone who wants to argue those calls with umpires to go work one game behind the plate. It will literally and figuratively change your perspective.

What you are describing are the unwritten rules of Baseball that have existed since long before your darling child got punched out on a horrible called third K.

My stance still has not changed no matter how many different threads are made...... 65-35: Arlington Heights ........
