Taking the train to D.C. this afternoon for two days of meetings.Nothing Drino, Bolt or Illini related here but let's be honest, Abe Lincoln was a beast. Is there any question he would have been an Illini fan had there been a team back in the mid-1800s? Of course not. He and a side-burned 1852 version of Bruce Weber would have smoked pipes and discussed agrarian pre-capital issues of the day. He and the 1855 version of Ron Zook would have sipped absinthe and tested each other with feats of strength.
He probably would have also liked the Cubs or Cardinals, and perhaps either the Bears or Rams. He could also have been a Kentucky fan.
No man is perfect.
