I listen to Eric & Kathy on WTMX in the mornings. Last week, Eric & Kathy "adopted" Wauconda High School’s football team because it had a horribly long losing streak, and they wanted to get a float into WHS’s Homecoming parade. Well, what do you know, but WHS won its game last Friday, ending their losing streak. Now, Eric & Kathy are looking for another school’s team to adopt. The first thought that came to my mind was, "Why not Hoffman Estates High School"? Not to be mean, but HEHS doesn’t exactly have the best record. Palatine isn’t having such a hot season, either, but we were victorious over HEHS last week. What I heard on the radio this morning from a HEHS parent is that they won a game last year, but the last game they won before that was two years prior! It has been bad enough this season that they have been running the clocks even after incomplete passes and running out of bounds! It looks like Eric & Kathy are enthusiastic about adopting Hoffman’s football team. They even mentioned possibly adopting the Hawkeye View. But I think they only mentioned the newspaper because Eric mistakenly thought the mascot was the hawkeye. So, I guess we can find out later this week if HEHS will get adopted by the Eric & Kathy show, and maybe have the Eric & Kathy parade float in two Homecomings back-to-back.
