Condolences to GD and RR.

According to the Movoto Real Estate blog’s latest analysis, [i]America’s suburbs are among some of the smartest cities in the country.

The analysis collected data using the U.S. Census American Community Survey, greatschools.org and business listings. The 109 suburbs were then ranked based on the following criteria:

Colleges and universities per capita
Public libraries per capita
Museums per capita
Percentage of students with bachelor’s degrees or higher
High school graduation rate
greatSchools.org rating (based on test scores for the area)[/i]

Curtis around end. Touchdown! Locke's helmet is off and there seems to be something wrong with his face.

Mark Locke is the perfect sad story. NFL type talent, knew families in Evanston that tried to do everything they could to straighten him out. Was friends with the guy during those years.

He was the guy they bent every rule for at Nebraska, but still couldnt stay.

There was a guy in my class who was just like that named Manny Henry. He was supposed to be the best back to come through Evanston since Howard Jones. Manny was big, strong, and fast. He just couldn't really cut it in school. I'm pretty sure he went to Missouri. Maybe he was at Purdue first and then transferred. I don't remember for sure, but that sounds right.
