60. Daniels (Derek Anderson...this is how I feel about my pick)


Well, those are the Picks in line with the Mock Draft conducted by Zacharias Straebel and Myself about 5 days before draft day. We felt the TE run would go much sooner, but alas, it did not. Look for Draft grades before the opening game on Thursday. Everyone please set your lineups and don't get too cocky

The Official 2008 Chicago Bears Prediction Thread


As wonderful as this baseball season has been for both sides of town, we all know that baseball is for fags. Thus, it's time to get excited for the Bears. I'm not quite sure how good the team will be, but I think with the collection of minds (except Barney) in this league, we can collaborate on a good set of predictions.

Just to balance the optimism and pessimism, I'll suggest this format--record, team mvp, one good thing, one bad thing, and one surprise, and any additional comments

My prediction

Record: 5-11

Team MVP: Lance Briggs

One Good Thing: Matt Forte receives Rookie of the Year

One Bad Thing: Bears start at least three Quarterbacks

One Surprise: Less than two paternity suits are filed against Urlacher

Bear down

Welcome to the Launch of the Official Kappa Sigma Alumni and Other Members Fantasy Football League!

This Blog will be used for various fake news stories, random lists, put-downs towards others, etc.

Please roam around the site and check for its multitude of options and features (Straebel you don't have to since you have years of Blogxperience. Let's make this a solid Blog and try not for everyone to rip on Danny only, I mean it is really easy (but fun) and sometimes gets old (not really).

Man, Myth, Legend, Buckeye?




I remember one of my first days at the U of I at C-U meeting various members of our beloved Kappa Sigma fraternity. One of these members in particular was quiet, reserved and hibernating-bearlike. His name was Tom Mathews. Soon did I realize that this Tom fellow really wasn't a Tom at all, but would go by his alter-ego, binge drinking alias Madden
*pictured at right (yes, as in TurDuckin). Not only would Billy constantly expect Madden to utter the words, "BOOM!" every 10 mins. but with his resistance to it, it became a challenge.


As an offspring of John Madden himself and a female Moose, Madden continued his college career matching multiple feats that may have been legend worthy, among them:

-Beer Bonging an entire 40 oz. of Malt Liquor (Please comment if you know what type) while myself and my Dad were sleeping in my room on Dad's Day weekend and proceeding to puke it all up in about 48 seconds

-Co-man with myself an unheard of streak of 8-10 beer pong matches one at some random party where a kid looking like Dirk Nowitzki was there and the playing surface was a closet door

-Complete an hour and a half nap at a bar blaring Kiss FM music whilst in a banana costume

-Spit out puke chunks on a fellow Cubs Fan at a game after attempting to not throw up after returning with two beers in the 8th inning after they stop serving in the 7th (Also, after we were moved the 1st of 3 times)

These are the few of 100's and please feel free to comment with additional stories, out-of-body experiences, etc. For all you Gingers out there, I have met your king and I am not impressed....
