Did you know......

That your Northwestern Wildcats are a resounding 5-0 on the young football season and going for 6-0 this Saturday.  Yes they haven't had a signature win yet and they do like to keep game suspenseful until the end, but they are 1-0 in conference games and have some real momentum. 

I know what you are going to say. You'll say "But Mike, weren't we 5-0 last year?" And I'll say "NO, what are you talking about? We had two wins than a 5 game losing streak. We got killed last year."  That's why this year is so impressive.  And it isn't me who is excited.  We are currently ranked in the Top 25 for the first time in a while.

We got a big game this week against Penn State.  When we beat these 'Bamas (sorry, Beth) we will be bowl eligible.  If we go to a (respectable) bowl game I will lose my freaking mind. 

LET'S GO!!!!!

Cook hall was devastated by the loss of two of the community's most beloved cakes. The stabbing victims were peacefully enjoying the department BBQ when the one Emily Hoffman sprung from the shadows to enact her crime.  Security cameras have caught the perpetrator red-handed.The suspect remains on the loose and extremely dangerous (to any baked good). A motive has yet to be determined. Security at Thursday Coffee Hour has been increased.

UPDATE: As of 10/4, 5:03PM CDT, the killer remains at large, having committed several more atrocities with no apparent end in sight. Police are still baffled as to the possible motive behind these senseless crimes.
