[NU Sports] NU Sports News Digest 12/26

www.PurpleWildcats.com
for Purple Reign
& the NU Sports List

Sorry this is so late today, I am finding it harder and harder to do this along
with my business and family obligations.

Just out of curiosity, how many of you out there actually look at this
regularly?

When I took this over from Frank Loomis, it was one of the few internet link
listings on the web and when we moved Purple Reign over to Scout.com, it was one
of the things that was copied by most of the other Big 10 sites.

Anyway, now that so many feel they must link stories [without much comment, I
should add] on the list, maybe its time to fold up the tent and do something
else with my mornings.

Thanks
