Previewing the previews: some question marks

So in about a week, we’re going to pop open the previews for the season (if you can’t wait, check out what Sippin’ On Purple has been doing thus far), but as I sit here watching the Northwestern vs. Wisconsin game from last year, I can’t help but get excited for the season. But as... Read more »

Jim Phillips and the marketing crew over at Anderson Hall will be putting a full-on “engage eight” blitz on the Chicago advertising market. According to this release, there will be seven year-round billboards... Read more »

"They're Not Good At Football, Kick Them Out"

The Commodore is not happy. Soon (if not already), they’ll be our enemies.  Right now, however, it’s time to stand up for our academically-oriented brother, because it is not all that long ago (a couple weeks, really, during all the expansion talk), that we had to deal with this kind of idiocy.  Remind you of...

The Many Moods of Bill Carmody

We were going to wait on this until closer to basketball season, but given the recent news, we thought it might be a good time to launch this segment.  Following Northwestern men’s basketball is an emotional roller coaster.  One minute you’re beating Purdue, the next minute Trevon Hughes is jacking off threes in your house...

The Curse of Not Really Caring

Ho-hum The Cubs have the Curse of the Billy Goat. The Red Sox had the Curse of the Bambino.   The Wildcats’ basketball program seems to have the Curse of Not Really Caring. When it’s all said and done, it’s just basketball. The university has bigger fish to fry. So does Kevin Coble. There’s no... Read more »

Lucy, you have some 'splainin' to do...

Kevin Coble has announced he will not return to the Northwestern basketball team after recovering from a foot injury. This is all very odd, as coach Bill Carmody said a few weeks ago that Coble was on schedule and doing well. However, according to Lindsey Willhite of the Daily Herald, Carmody wasn’t necessarily sure about... Read more »

Jordan Mabin: The Key to Everything

We know you can tackle, now we need more pass break-ups I know, I know. Football is a team game. It’s about the name on the front of the jersey, not the back. Pat Fitzgerald, if he read this post, would probably beat the shit out of me. That doesn’t change the fact that if... Read more »

Robbie Caldwell: Hilarious Good Ol' Boy

Breaking sports news video. MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL highlights and more. If you want a good laugh, just watch some video from SEC Media Day.  Robbie Caldwell, the interim coach at Vanderbilt (aka NU’s opening opponent), is absolutely hilarious.
