What on earth do you have against Illinois, Rocky Top 98? I can't think of a single reason to hate Illinois. I don't like sore losers and whiners (i.e. Steve Spurrier, Bob Stoops, Geno Auriemma, etc.) GO LADY VOLS!!!!! Bring home the gold!!!!
How could you have the Cardinals on this list? They are about the only team in recent history with a salary of less than $75 million that has won. The Yankees pitching staff has a higher salary than the Cards entire roster.
I understand the Rams being on this list since they beat the Tennessee Tits.
