Sobos headed to state title game is the Rockford Register Star article detailing the Sobos 45-22 win against Kewanee Wethersfield. Kewanee Wethersfield who were the IHSA 1A State Champions last year. They also beat the Sobos last year. The Geese fans were very cocky at the game. So it’s nice that they all ate some humble pie.

The Sobos (12-1) will now face El Paso (13-0) at one pm on Friday, Nov. 29 at Memorial Stadium in Champaign. It’s pretty amazing that this is for the Class 1A state title.

My last article had a few comments posted to it. Comments being the link after the AIM icon. You click that and then your taken to the Forum so you can post your comments on what I wrote.

A couple of Geese Fans stumbled onto my site and left some words. Not words of wisdom by any means. These two chuckle-heads come to my site to comment on how me calling them cocky was wrong. Here are their unedited comments:

I think the COCKINESS came from the home team more than anything. And it is to bad all the showboating on the field didnt get the flags they deserved. You guys won fair and square, but you definitly wasnt the best team. Our boys were the most sportsman like kids in 1 A and it is sad that most of them said that the hobos were the ones that were cussing on the field and rubbing it in. We knew from last year how unsportsman like you people are so yes some of us did have an attitude coming to the arm pit of Illinois. We all will be rooting for Elpaso and hopeing the HOBOS go down on friday. It is sad that a reporter would put something like that in the paper but doesnt suprise me at all. Coming from such a nasty looking and smellin town.

COCKY????
Well if that doesnt just piss me off. your players yelling and screaming at the sidelines of Wethersfield. The profanity used by your players on the field. Talk about pathetic example of a possible 1A Championship team.
As far as the Officiating. Only way to explain that was they dont deserve to officiate a 5-6 grade game.
POOR SPORTS period is the only way to explain the Homo SObo

So because of these two rocket scientists you have to register to post comments. This is my website. I have nothing to do with the South Beloit Football team. I just happen to be a graduate. I’m a fan nothing more. You don’t like then you can leave. I’m all for free speech. But if your going to talk shit you have to be man enough to do it openly. You can’t say this dreck and hide behind the anonymous guest posting account.

I could say more, but then I would be as bad as these two Geese Fans.

A few posts back I was bitching about how the hotel hadn’t put up anything supporting the Sobos. They do now:

Ah the power of the internet. I hope they keep it up till after fridays game.

**Update** Well it’s down already. So much for the hotel being one to support the community.

Champaign corker and SoBos closing in on ultimate prize are two Beloit Daily News articles from todays paper. The first one tells about the Sobos 45-22 victory over Kewanee Wethersfield. The second one is by Sports Editor Jim Franz. Here are my favorite bits from the first article:

“It’s awesome to be able to beat them at home since they knocked us off last year and went to state,” Goldsworthy said. “This year we beat them, so hopefully we go and win state.”

“Last year was a disappointment, but this year we made up for it,” DeJuan Listenbee said. “To be the champs, you got to beat the champs and that’s what we just did. And to get there, it’s a dream.”

And boy what a dream it is. I think this dream has been every Sobo Football players. The game was awesome to watch. It was great going down on to the field after the game was over surrounded by all the Sobo fans. Friday I will be nervous as hell. I can’t go to the game, due to the fact I’m dead broke. But I will be thinking about them the whole day until I find if they won.

I got an email from Sony Online Entertainment Inc. and couldn’t be happier. Here is what it said:

We are pleased to inform you that your signed TERMS OF USE, LICENSE AND NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT for participation in the beta testing of Star Wars Galaxies ™: An Empire Divided ™ has been received and verified.

Of course this is all I need. I’m already playing Dark Age of Camelot and Earth & Beyond. I guess a little Star Wars Galaxies won’t hurt.

SoBos’ workforce is the Beloit Daily News article detailing how the Sobos stay in shape. Here is a little bit from the news item:

For the past two seasons, the SoBos have seen the results of a strong workout regimen. And much of the praise can be directed to defensive coordinator and conditioner Todd Martens, who came on board during South Beloit’s 2001 season.

Yep you have to give Martens some praise for what he has done. Let’s hope that he is keeping them going for this game friday.

This post is regarding the Breaking Policy post from last week. It’s kind of funny how rules are made to be broken. It shouldn’t be any surprise to anybody who knows me that I disregard rules. I’m a little disappointed in some of the managers though. The restaurant manager caught me smoking and it appears she hasn’t narked me out. I even told her that when she speaks of me, she speak well.

If I was a manager I would have narked. I mean that’s what managers are supposed to do. You have to maintain that pretense of some kind of command. I have no respect for someone who doesn’t have the balls to do this. Sure it’s cool she didn’t nark on me. And I’m not looking to get written up.

It would be different if me and this restaurant manager had some kind of buddy friendship going on. But I don’t really now this chick well enough to consider her a buddy. She sure as hell doesn’t know shit about me. Maybe next time she will nark on me. That is after they read this.
