What It Was Was Football

Last night, I went out to the Richmond-Burton (our local high school)-Marengo game. The R-B Rockets won easily, 48-23, and in the third quarter were leading 48-13 before putting in the second string.

I left at the end of the third quarter as it was getting too cold (that's pretty early in the season to be getting that cold).

We were planning on driving out to Dekalb today for the Northern Illinois-Eastern Illinois game, but yesterday we found out that the game was sold out!!! That has never happened before. I guess all the success the team has been having, including the Orange Bowl appearance is finally paying off.

Gone are the days when we could go to the game anytime and get tickets.

Sunday night, the Bears play the Steelers at 7:30. I don't like night games!!
