Well, I can say last week’s blog was the first time I ever made the front page of the sports section…and the first time I ever got phone calls about my writing. Thanks to Jim Rossow at the News-Gazette for getting my prose out to the masses, and thanks to those of you who contacted me with your thoughts. For those of you who were reading my blog for the first time last week, please know that this is all in good fun. No need to have a contentious debate on who qualifies as a celebrity or what qualifies as a connection to Illini sports.
