When I Said Super, I Meant Super

What a crazy week it has been already. Can you believe that the Giants won the Super Bowl? I was sitting on the edge of my seat for way too much of that game. 17 to 14, I just can't get over it. I keep seeing news coverage of the celebrations in New York and they look absolutely crazy.

Last night was also really intense. I decided to stay in and watch the numbers come in from the primaries, that and the weather was terrifying. I won't say who I like for either the primary or the general election coming up in November, but last night was exciting no matter who you are rooting for. The weather though, that was even more nerve wracking than the poll numbers coming in. I haven't heard of too much damage around Carbondale and Murphysboro, but my thoughts go out to all of those areas that were hit hard.

On the happier side of life; the Saluki Men took down Sycamores 80 to 69 last night. They obviously weren't too worried about the weather. This win means that the Salukis are now tied for 3rd with Creighton. The guys will get a few days to rest now; their next game will be on Feb 10th against Creighton at Omaha.

In case you didn't know; February is Black History Month. SIU has a number of events going on to celebrate the month of February. There is so much going on that I can't list it all in this blog, but if you are interested go here.
