Thanksgiving Destination

[mike23]

Where is everyone going this Thanksgiving to get their hoops fix? I am from Jacksonville and I plan to watch Richwoods here in town and travel to Peoria to watch the Tournament of Champions event.

Does Thompson play Friday or Saturday?

The tourneys website indicates Houston Klein Forest plays Decatur Christian at 11:45 on Saturday morning at Carver Arena. It will be a long day, but should be fun day to see future and current Braves in one day.

Everyone's favorite poster and political pundit VromanFan will be in that tradition-laden basketball haven of Hoffman Estates, Illinois. Somewhere between the strip malls and the corn fields.

If I have time might swing by the McGovern Classic at St. Rita on the southwest side of Chicago. Used to draw a great field...for example saw Julian Wright and H-F there....now its pretty weak. Its my mediocre alma mater's team and a bunch of mid-level Chicago Public schools.

Pretty dull stuff...but hey you asked!

My wife and I will leave Mexico on Tuesday for our home on Table Rock lake. We will celebrate our twenty fith wedding anniversary on tuesday night at Big Cedar lodge and then head to the house for Thanksgiving. My only sports while back in the US will be my Chiefs on Thanksgiving and Bradley games on the wekend.

I hope everyone has a safe a happy holiday!!!!

[it's boogie time]

I wish I was in Peoria to see one of the BU signee's, but I'll be up in Hoffman Estates for the Bradley games.

I'll be making the trek up to the Sears "Centre". (Is it better if it's called the Centre as opposed to Center?? Peoria Civic CENTRE???)


GO BRAVES!

Hey no argument here...I didn't go to Rita....Rice no longer plays in this one....a big reason why the field's quality has dipped.

Ya, when I went to Rice we played in it, but then Coach stopped and switched to the Lincoln Way tourney.

I'll be making the trek ... a whole FIFTEEN minutes over to BU games at the Sears Centre.
