THIS WEEK’S CHATTERHEADS
Erayna Wright, Jones
Zach Aries, Walter Payton
Lynda Lopez, Prosser
Lee Pikelny, Lincoln Park
MODERATOR Which athlete from your school should fans be watching and why?
ERAYNA: Chanell Washington … she’s a BEAST!
ZACH: Pat Dyer, varsity baseball shortstop.
LYNDA: Jessica Suarez is quite a beast on the soccer field. She will not let anyone intimidate her during a game.
LEE: When baseball season comes around, that would be infielder Jerome Sader. His long, golden hair makes it hard to watch anybody else.
MODERATOR Make a prediction about the Bears’ first game
of the season.
ERAYNA: Hopefully they win … something.
ZACH: I’m an optimist until they prove me wrong: 20-17 victory over the hated Packers, Cutler throws for 250 yards and two scores.
LYNDA: My fortune-telling abilities indicate that the Bears will win by seven points. Then again, I’m not a fortune teller.
LEE: Either Jay Cutler takes off his mask and we find out he is Rex Grossman or his arm falls off on the first pass attempt.
MODERATOR If you could rename a college team’s mascot, what would it be?
ERAYNA: Tigers …
ZACH: I’d rename the Tufts “Jumbo.” Seriously, anything but “Jumbo” would suffice.
LYNDA: I would name them the caterpillars. I bet no one has thought about that one.
LEE: Notre Dame should replace the Fighting Irishman with a priest. This way, after week six against USC, there will already be somebody to perform ND’s funeral.
MODERATOR How does a sports fan know when it’s fall?
ERAYNA: When the calendar says so. 🙂
ZACH: Sunday nights are devoted solely to food and the T.V.
LYNDA: All the Cubs fans flock east.
LEE: Both the Cubs and Sox are out of the playoffs.
