You have to give credit to a team who publicly says they’re glad that Wisconsin’s home court win streak survived against MSU because they wanted to break it…and then goes ahead and breaks it.
Dickie V says the ’89 Flying Illini were better than this current group, and it’s true that the current team doesn’t have anybody as good as Nick Anderson, but this team doesn’t have to pretend that Lowell Hamilton, Larry Smith and Marcus Liberty can actually play, either.
Jack Ingram took time away from his cross-country stalking of Bill Self to hit a couple big threes.
Why the f@#$ does a guy from the Neshoba Democrat have a vote anyway?
It’s impressive that in the game the Bulls’ finally allow 100 points in…they win anyway.

Mariotti puts down the doughnut to apparently have an acid trip while writing this column about the Badgers’ crowd.
Chris DeLuca on the Mets and Sammy. Wait, screw it, I’m not even linking to it. It’s not like this jackass ever has any insight into anything. Instead, watch the world’s worst weatherman! I love this.
The Wizard of Roz finally has his vision back after that close call with Sharon Panozzo’s reflector hat and says John Paxson’s smart.
George Karl? Oh, god, why? Do they want up-close access to his hare lip scar?
Peggy Ordonez limped into Detroit yesterday. Actually he didn’t even have to do that. They went to him.
Dougie Eyechart can take his World Series clinching baseball to Shea. It’ll be the only one they see for a long time.
Delgoner? Even for the Post that’s a weak headline.
It’s funny how both Cubs and Mets fans think Sosa-Floyd is a bad trade. That’s probably the definition of a good trade.
Apparently, nobody wants to take Baltimore’s money.
America’s finest news source on a relationship in New Jersey that analysts say has exceeded second quarter projections. Hmm.
I don’t think it was so much that the Badgers were unable to get Wilkinson open looks in the final four minutes, as much as it was they were seduced by their early success with the three. Ray Nixon hitting three of them in the first half, and Chambliss nailing a 25 footer made them believe that they could win that way. They did the same f’ing thing against MSU, and only realized with two minutes to go that Wilkinson’s good. I don’t think Tucker or Wilk took a shot in the last 4 minutes.
Roz lists “Finding Forrester” as his 6th best sports movie of all time. He does this despite it:
1. having nothing to do with sports
2. not being good
Yo, Ebert! Chess is a sport, fatty. Oh, wait, that was Searching for Bobby Fischer… My bad. Have some cake.
It doesn’t get any better than an 80-year-old Sean Connery shouting “You’re the man now, dawg!”
Hey, it looks like Rozner was fairly drunk when he wrote this. He wants me to manage the Cubs this year. He and Baker Basher both.

Hell, at least I’m smart enought not to double post…17 minutes apart.
The Illini won with defense and perfectly executed offensive sets down the stretch. Other than the wide-open layup Taylor missed, the Badgers were locked down by the Illini in the final few minutes.
The offense ran perfectly with the two dunks plays involving Augustine. The first play was a seal-off play, allowing Augustine to get inside away from his defender, Wilkinson, while nobody else was around the hoop. The second play was a drive-and-dish, which again allowed Augustine to have a play where nobody could block his shot at the basket.
As for the Illini’s NCAA chances, right now there are only six teams I would be worried about before the game: Duke (Obvious reasons, Williams is a force inside, Redick and Ewing can match up pretty well with two of the Illinois guards, and the officials are often nice to the Dukies. The big issue is if the Blue Devils can match up three guards against three guards.), UNC (Most talented team in America, could run with the Illini, but Roy Williams is the coach, which I don’t think is good for UNC), Kansas (Self knows the Illini players and their strengths and weaknesses. Jayhawks need better outside shooting though to go along with Simien), Syracuse (3 words: Two-three zone), Oklahoma State (Struggling right now, but they play defense really hard and Lucas can always go off on you) and UCONN (I know UCONN is struggling right now but they are defending champs and have a really good inside game, plus Calhoun almost always has his teams going up at the end of the season)…
Best game I’ve watched since their Round-of-8 run in 2002 against Kansas. Or maybe 1989. I dunno…Pudding. Please?
It was a great game, and Illinois is the best team in the country. That said, I still don’t understand how, up by 1, with the ball, with 3:40 left, coming out of commercial, Tucker and Wilkinson are on the bench. The predictable Nixon forced shot followed by a HELMJGHLFFKHGK over the back followed, and it was all down hill from there.
Delgoner is weak. When I tried to force Carlos In a Delgado da Vida on him,? Now that was good. Right? Right?
I don’t know what “pie faced” means but Wilkinson’s girlfriend is hottt

The philosophic thesis that all knowledge is ultimately founded in experience has in the end led to a postulate concerning the logical clarification of any statement about nature. Such a postulate may have seemed justified in the period of classical physics, but since quantum theory we have learned that it cannot be fulfilled. by wsop
