[NU Sports] Barnett

[Roy Lamberton]

I know of at least one group that is trying to put together a show.

I think the key is the local perception that NU does not equal ratings, or ad
dollars. You can probably raise enough money on any street corner downtown to do
a N**** D*** show, and probably Illinois, and Wisconsin, but NU's alums are
spread all over the country.

That said, it would be a phenomenal Medill project - something that would give
several interns a full quarter's worth of work. I'm amazed that our J School has
never tried to do it...
