Yep. You'll see that at alot of college town hotels during football season. The other thing many do is make you stay 2 nights. It's takes a little work to find the ones that don't have a 2 night policy and no cancelation fees.

There's always something to talk about. When topics get lean, we bash the crap out of each other.

And there are the discussions about there being nothing to discuss.

Yes, and the best restaurants in DeKalb in different categories.

P.S. I still like Pizza Villa for pizza and Johnny's Charhouse for steaks. And, I love the Hillside for atmosphere.

Johnny's is no bueno....worked there for a year, aside from the owner being a cheap *******, the kitchen is run just like any of your neighborhood Greek restaurants in Chicago... They make NOTHING from scratch....

Hey now, your better Greek-owned establishment make an effort. As for Johnny's, thanks for confirming what I long suspected.

Anyone know if the Thai Pavilion has fallen off since I heard it changed owners a couple years back?

Have we started to debate which conference will best fit NIU?

How about how much we hate Coach Kill? thats always a fun one.

Can we speculate on how much better Doeren is at various things we haven't seen Carey do yet?

How about debating which BCS team we can convince to come to HS by simply emailing their AD?

Don't worry, now is the part of the season where the topics and conversations realllllly go off the rails.

It's like Seinfeld. A board about nothing.

Start a thread on something. We can hold a contest to see how many posts it takes to go off topic.

I thought I heard he transferred.....maybe not.

Not a good sign....Kristen has her arms folded - body language not good, and too much spacing between them. I'll be checking TMZ for relationship updates

I will fight the next person who brings up NIU changing conference. And I will fight that person Hobo-Style.

Excellent observations my friend.....haha I actually am in the Jay Membership fan club (on the field), off of it I could care less

I imagine the "Now What?" would be sex.

Funny how someone mentioned Kill hate

Yet Doeren bounces before the orange bowl And kill before humanitarian

Yet 80% of this team was kills recruits

Enjoy the offseason I will be busy up until spring

Unfortunately, I think that might be included if you have to fight Lord Stanley hobo-style...

Can we please have a discussion on time zones?
