Durty Butter Updates

First and Foremost, We at Durty Butter would like to congratulate Roger Powell for making the Bulls 15 man roster this year! Way to go Roger, now hopefully he can get some playing time this year.

And thank you Derrick Rose for hurting D-Will in the second game that the Bulls played against the Utah Jazz. He can't stop screwing over the Illini, even in the NBA. He better be an All-Star, because I don't think Chicago can handle another bust at Point Guard.

The Cubs extended Jim Hendry's contract for 4 more years, and I know that most people lay the blame on GM's when their teams season doesn't end the way they want it to, but he has put together a pretty good team. Plus this gives him a chance to clean up the mess that is the Kosuke Fukudome contract!!

Todd McShay of ESPN has Vontae Davis as the second highest rated underclassmen in the Nation this year. This is great for Vontae, and pretty much means that he is gone after this season. It is an ESPN Insider article.

There is a really good webcast called "Talking Illini" with Boz and Mr. G
Go to www.talkzone.com and click on "talking illini" they talked to Kurt Kittner this week and also they prepped the Illini-Wisky game. These guys are really good, and you get a lot of solid info about the Illini Football team. The second hour has Kittner.
