You had me for a second, but I know Elics can't eat that much. I mean really, I think about 7 or 8 grains is all he can handle in one meal.

First, that was funny.
Second, they were a 25 pt underdog, so no one was expecting much.
Third, they really got thumped.

Rut is always asking about the last time that Illinois beat Michigan, so...

Final

Illinois (3-2, 1-1 Big Ten)

Michigan (2-3, 1-1 Big Ten)

1	2	3	4	T
3	14	7	21	45
14	0	0	6	20

now we know that it was October 4, 2008.

Just like Taco Bell and Jack in the Box in college. Much past midnight, nobody in those establishments were sober, inlcuding the cashiers. Good thing college students can be fed after midnight, unlike Gremlins.

Toledo over Michigan? Sheesh!

What'll happen next, something bizarre like UNC beating Notre Dame? Nah....

The results may not be as drastic, but it's still not a good idea.

Holy Toledo! Off the crossbar and through from 48 and then a chip shot miss on the other end. Another loss in the Big House.
Where's Rut?

I am right here. And if Michigan wins another game this year, I will be surprised. I said this while sitting in the Big House during the Wisconsin game. Unlike some here, I have perspective on the team and what they were going to do this year. You do not fill lose all your offensive play makers and play a QB that has never played a snap before this season, a RB that has never played, on offensive lineman that started before this season and numerous wide receivers that never played and expect to have success on offense. This does not include the fact that the players were not recruited to run this offense with a brand new coach that is not from the program. I am not a Cubs fan that gets excited about minimal accomplishments and brags about it.

Michigan is terrible and they make more headlines then any team from Nevada (I have no idea what Nevada did in any sport let alone football). I guess you are jealous.

Peace

When I was a kid (in the 19th century) my friends and I used to go to Comiskey Park to see the White Sox. We'd stop at Carl's Red Hots on Stony Island Avenue ( I think they're still there) on the way there to pick up a bag of Vienna jumbo kosher dogs. They were boiled, then put on a steamed poppy seed roll. You could "drag it through the garden" which meant putting on virtually any kind of veggie you wanted plus you could choose from about five kinds of brown mustard. They'd put it on a piece of white butcher paper and pour a huge amount of hand cut fries right out of the hopper all over the dog then wrap it up. Here's the best part - 25 cents! The weird part was that they carried only Nedlog (golden spelled backwards was their slogan) non-carbonated pop. We wouldn't buy any but wait until we got to the ballpark to get a Coke.

Man - I miss those days.

BTW - anyone who put ketchup on a hot dog was drawn and quartered.

That still is the only way that I know to eat a 'dog. Your description is so right on that my mouth is watering for one.
One question - 19th century ???

That's known as a "joke", Lcubed. I know they're hard to recognize because we're not supposed to make them anymore.

I knew MP was old, just not that old. Little did I know that he is that old and that explains all his meds. Nothing wrong with an innocuous joke IMO.

I only said I went to Carl's in the 19th century, not that I was born then. Actually, I was born 6000 years ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Sure they did. Just ask Sarah Palin.

OOOPS! A joke. Sorry.

Rut, it's the bizarro world!!

Big Blue loses to Toledo in the Big House while Carolina is 5-1 after coming from 11 points down to beat Notre Dame.
