So we were watching the Illini's 89-64 victory over Southeast Missouri State last night — we have the ESPN Full Court package; you honestly do not want to know how much money we give that network — and when it was over, we flipped around the other games. It was a bad Full Court night; nothing but ...
Freddie Mitchell: Still Alive, Apparently
Well, last night was Terrell Owens' 32nd birthday party in Atlantic City, and reports are filing in.
