Surely which team you pick has an awful lot to do with how old you are.

I completely respect everything about the 89 team and what they did and meant to school legacy and whatnot. And maybe head to head they pummel the 05 team. But 2005 was just dominant compared to their peers, and, as the Sleepers guys said the other day, the best Big Ten team of this century. Purdue this year could change that, but they’ll still finish with at least two more losses than 05 Illinois.

Nicely said.  The 89 team gave us a chance and some hope.  The 05 team was fully expected to seal the deal.  Head to head?  That would be a great game!

89 vs 05 would be an unbelievable matchup.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.
