volatile and as certain as it is confusing. Love can be professed
in countless ways to numerous types of people and is the vessel
that motivates even the most hardened hearts. One can go on and on
trying to explain love, but the tuth is , love is too expansive to
be summarized in a few words.

The beer hall was packed wall-to-wall with people. Large men in
extra-large Packers sweatshirts and women in after-work
professional wear crowded along the long bar, waiting to be seated.
A surly group of middle-aged men in leather jackets—the types who
invaded Madison last weekend in the wake of the high school
basketball tournament—kept toasting one another and looked
dangerously close to falling over. And until the polka band took
the stage, the background music consisted of laughing, screaming
children, the clink of pint glasses and the swishing and swooshing
of wind pants.

With the way the Big Ten season unfolded, all 11 teams in this
weekend's conference tournament know that anything can happen. The
fact that any game can be won by any team has to be comforting for
the Wisconsin men's basketball team, who, despite grabbing the No.
4 seed, will play Indiana, perhaps the hottest team in the Big
Ten.

Over the past two months, the pages of this paper-and most
others-have been graced by the judicious, boyish grin of John
Roberts Jr. A mere 50-years young, Chief Justice Roberts will no
longer be featured on the nation's front pages for he is now
destined to the leafs of history. And, although aspiring attorneys
will study the four days in 2005 when Roberts out-performed the
nation's top acting troupe-the judiciary committee players??-those
charming cheeks will soon fade into supreme oblivion, appearing
only at regularly scheduled presidential inaugurations and awkward
court photo opportunities.

This week begins a three-part series chronicling Wisconsin's
recent success in sending its departing players to \The League.""
Undoubtably one of the strongest positions during the Alvarez era
has been the offensive line, which has skillfully protected Badgers
quarterbacks and paved the way for Wisconsin's reputation as
""Running Back U."" However, for all the success Badger offensive
linemen have had in the NFL, its two most decorated players,
All-Americans Aaron Gibson and Chris McIntosh, were the biggest
disappointments. Both were drafted in the first round in 1999 and
2000 respectively, but both proved unworthy of their lofty draft
status, and are no longer with a team. Currently the Badgers have
five offensive linemen playing:

As his team trudged off Camp Randall last Saturday, something
didn't sit right with Northern Illinois Head Coach Joe Novak.
Hadn't his team run and passed all over Wisconsin? Hadn't his
defense refused to bend against Anthony Davis and a gargantuan
offensive line? Hadn't his team, missing six key players, laid
their heart on the line and played a wonderful game? Most
perplexing of all, hadn't they deserved to win?
