Thanks for clearing it up.

Feel free to point out where I said “this is the standard (Illinois would have to meet) for a golden era.” Those who can actually read words correctly, and understand them with context won’t find thst I said that anywhere. All I said is that three championships in 5 years would indeed be a golden era. Absolutely nowhere did I say, or even imply, that that was “the bar” for Illinois.

Merely making the playoffs 3x in 5 years would be a great accomplishment for Illinois.

Being bowl eligible is a commendable job. Doing it two years in a row is really something..

Don’t disagree, but I think “golden era” would be somewhere in between being bowl eligible in 2025 and 3 nattys in 5 years.

Bowl eligible two years in a row is a good start, though.

JJ: "Tempo just told me 3 natty’s in 5 years would be a Golden Era…"

Your screenshot supports JJ's statement.

Tempo: "Absolutely nowhere did I say this was the Illini “bar” for a golden era.

This also appears to be correct from your screenshot. I don't see where anybody said that you said it "was the Illini “bar” for a golden era."

It’s exactly why he busted me in the nuts for 20 minutes in the text chain. And it’s why he brought it up here. He’s making the case I said that is somehow “the expectation” for a golden era.

PAMan shared the picture that started the whole fucking thing because of the “golden era” comment. Are you really this fucking dense?

For the record, I don’t think you’re that fucking dense. But I do think you’re an epic level of ankle biter.

When did the Dodgers do 3 in 5 ?

You’re right, it was actually 3 in 6. You TOTALLY owned me!

We're making progress.

Now where did someone say, or imply, that you said "that was “the bar” for Illinois ?
