Golf teams ‘stay the course’

The ball was going everywhere that senior Peyton Camardella didn’t want it to go. Between hitting the ball just short of the green or straight into the water, Camardella was having a very out-of-character match for her first nine holes of the girls’ golf sectional on Monday, Sept. 5. That was until she looked at the little number 19 written on her ball, her boyfriend’s jersey number, and was reminded that no matter what, it will be OK .

Michael Reese Site Developers Make $10 Billion Pitch For Bears Stadium

The Sun-Times reports that developers have made a $10 billion (with a B!) pitch with a plan to make the former Michael Reese Hospital site the next home of the Bears. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard the former Michael Reese Hospital site floated as an option. Back in 2024, it joined a long list of options that have been presented to the team in its search for a future home. The Bears have since dismissed it as an option, citing safety concerns about it being built over an active rail line and the lot size being too small for what the team was hoping to build. Still, there are folks who want to take one last stab at it. And frankly, I admire their gumption. More from the Sun-Times story , which includes an anecdote about a sweetener that Capri Investment Group could toss in that certainly grabbed my attention: To further lure the Bears, Capri and its investment partners said they were willing to purchase the team’s Arlington Heights property it’s “the key impediment to the team staying Downtown and fairly considering Bronzeville,” Primo said. “There should be absolutely no reasons why the Bears and the NFL

CHICAGO - Northwestern travels to Ohio State for a college football showdown Saturday against the sputtering Buckeyes. It’s a great chance for the Wildcats to knock Ohio State out of the playoff picture, which would make the 2026 season a rousing success no matter what happens in the final two weeks of Big Ten play.

Palatine Retires Rand Road TIF, Freeing Up $5 Million for Schools, Village

Arlington Toyota — Reported Business Tied To Corridor Redevelopment. Palatine council members voted to dissolve the Rand Road Corridor Tax Increment Financing District, a move that will redirect more than $5 million in property taxes to the levies of local taxing bodies once the district winds down at the end of 2026. The district helped reshape a stretch of Rand Road into a retail corridor anchored by Walmart, Target and Arlington Toyota, and its retirement closes out more than two decades of village-led redevelopment along that strip.

Investigation finds evidence of racist, homophobic slurs at Illinois rivalry football game

The allegations of homophobic and racial slurs during a rivalry football game between New Trier (Winnetka, IL) and Evanston Township (IL) on Oct. 16 at Northwestern's brand-new $862 million stadium have been supported by evidence. New Trier Superintendent Dr. Peter W. Tragos said in a statement on Monday, Nov. 9 , that a joint investigation between the two schools found evidence supporting the alleged hateful slurs New Trier students directed at Evanston band members. "Since the game, we have conducted more than 40 interviews with students and staff," Tragos said in the statement. "We have also followed up on reports submitted through TrevTips and email, reviewed available videos, photographs, and social media material, and conducted additional interviews as new information emerged. This work has continued in collaboration with Evanston Township High School. "I want to make clear that the investigation supports accounts of hateful language and actions directed toward the Evanston marching band from individuals in the New Trier student section. We take these accounts seriously and recognize the hurt this incident has caused." Evanston Director of Communications Reine Hanna confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that Evanston worked with New Trier to investigate the claims. "We have been working closely

Letter: Perhaps it’s time to disband New Trier student section

I attended the Evanston Township High School meeting on Nov. 9 to stand in solidarity with our school leadership, school board and students. It was illuminating. ETHS school board members and New Trier staff members discussed reports of students in the New Trier section yelling racist and homophobic comments at members of the ETHS band during an Oct. 16 football game at Ryan Field. Some on the ETHS board have deep knowledge of New Trier from prior work experience there.
