4 Thumbs Up/Down

"4 Thumbs Up/Down" will be a new segment in which I give people, places, or things 4 thumbs up or 4 thumbs down (in honor of Rick James).

4 Thumbs Up to Trent Meacham: Boy Wonder finally came through in a big game. A tip of the cap is also given to Wayne McClain for developing the press that made Northwestern crap the bed.

4 Thumbs Down to the Northwestern student section: The chants of "it's okay you'll be working for us someday" may be immature but you go over the line when you taunt Jeff Jordan by asking him if his Dad is at the casino or whorehouse. Oh and throwing your shoe at a ref doesn't help either.

4 Thumbs Up to Randy Moller: The NHL Florida Panther's play by play man sure has a flair for the dramatic and hilarious.


4 Thumbs Down to Alfie Patten: Alfie became a father at the tender age of 13. No really.

4 Thumbs Up to Gus Johnson: I wish you could call every Illinois game and just when I thought you couldn't top rise and fire or hell yes! you go and do this -


4 Thumbs Down to woman in front of me at the AT&T Store: Here's the deal, there isn't a bluetooth headset on Earth distracting enough to stop people from vomiting in their mouths at the mere sight of your face.
