And to all a good night, especially Emmy's First Class and his family.  See you all next season.  Go Foresters!

Yeh, and that Carter didn't even have a chest!!!!!!!!

Way to go FORESTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This joke of a conference" that you played in!!!!!!??

Ya never know:

LFC 2001 (4 - 6)

LFC 2002 (9 - 2)

Emmys First Class,

Didn't mean to get ya so worked up.  Try to have a good weekend anyway.

Oh yeah, only 127 days 'til opening day!!!!!!!!!!!!  Are you ready for some FOOTBALL???  Go Foresters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You might say that.  In 2002, the year we won the Conference Championship, they were the team that ruined our perfect season before the playoffs and caused us to go 9 - 1 with a 35 - 30 score over us.  Also, Knox is the alma mater of our current head coach.  It is also the alma mater of our former head coach and Knox's newly named Director of Athletics.  I think this all plays out for a pretty good rivalry and a pretty good game this season I hope.  A Forester FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

The trees rocked the four years Chad was there (2001 - 2004), compiling a win/loss record of 28 - 13 with the help of a great assistant coaching staff.  Brent Holsclaw was particularly impressive.  Fortunately, we were there all four seasons.  As a supporter last year, it was a disappointing year, but winning only one game all season would be a hell of a lot worse.  Hopefully, the Foresters are regrouping and working hard in the off season.  I've talked to a few, and they seem enthusiastic and are looking forward to this season.  It's unfortunate the game against Knox is in Galesburg this year.  May have to make that road trip anyway.  In the meantime, 128 days to the home opener.  A Forester FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!       

 Attention LFC #57 (2002).  Just wanted to say thanks for stopping over to see Nick in East Lansing.  Meant a lot to all of us.  I know you won't respond, but I know you read this board, so we all just wanted to say how great it was to see you this weekend.  You snuck out early, so me and Nick never had a chance to thank you and say good-bye.  Sooooooooo, 'til we meet again, stay safe.  The door is ALWAYS open either in East Lansing or in South Bend.  Let us know; we'll have a T-Bone and crab legs ready for ya.  Love ya tons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

LFCdad:  We were lucky enough to have found a great school like LFC and have our son play on the 2002 Championship team.  Or should I say "LFC was fortunate to have players fall in their lap and that turned into a championship."  Although we are not from Illinois and had never heard of Lake Forest College, it was actually what we saw when we went on a tour that impressed us and helped our son decide LFC was a great fit for him.  As for that championship, no song has more meaning for me than "Magic Carpet Ride."  Oh what a smile and what  memories that song brings.  As for this year, it's nice to see a changing of the guards like in 2002 (the first time in 19 years for LFC), but I'm anxious, as is everyone, to see what happens the first round of playoffs.  For the boys at LFC, keep your heads up, and good luck against Carroll tomorrow.  They always play you tough. 

LFC HOMECOMING 2005Hey, #57 of the 2002 LFC team, you gonna be at Homecoming on October 8?  Haven't gotten any of those late Friday night calls lately.  Hope everything is okay.  Sorry you missed the big graduation party, but hope you and Bernsy can make it to homecoming.  Come out and help cheer on our Foresters.  #56 will be there with bells on.

Good Luck Brent Becker and our Foresters this Saturday!!!!!!!!!Though we can't be there in body, we'll be there in spirit.  One game at a time.  Don't look past this one!
