Re: Chief Illiniwek\'s Last Dance
While I'm certainly pro-Chief, I haven't gotten concerned or angered or anything over the issue. That said, halftime at football/basketball just won't be the same anymore and I will miss Chief's performances dearly. There's nothing quite like how it can dominate all of Memorial Stadium or Assembly Hall and the feeling of unity one gets when singing the alma mater. Shame to see that tradition end.
EDIT: MyTurn2Raise makes several good arguments in the Sporting Events thread and seems very well educated in the issue.
