Seems like it was just yesterday that I was getting ready to take the afternoon off work and head to some Hot Thursday CPL Week 1 Action! Now it's the first round of the playoffs? Come on! Not sure if it's a record, but there are 21 CPL Teams in the IHSA Playoffs! 21! If I'm being honest, beginning with this week, I really don't have to post about the CPL because this is the time of year that the board comes alive with CPL talk! On to the picks!

Senn @ Carey-Grove
The subdivision dwellers in Carey-Grove are really in a pickle over this one. Tonight is the big trick or treating night where the full size candy bars take a back seat to the not spoken of yard decorating contest between, Brett, Chad, and Austin. By the time all the inflatables are down tonight, Muffy, Brittney, and Tiffany will be prepping for the big progressive costume party on Friday night in Lognanmark Circle. It's the biggest event of the fall! Tyler and Logan plan on having the Starlink hooked up, and the giant projector and screen on Chad's lower patio to catch the game while the bobbing for mini bottles is going on. None of it matters anyway. Senn rolls off the bus 22 minutes before the game in full uniforms and drops the hammer!
DAWGS!!

Hoffman Estates @ Lincoln Park
Serious question. Do people actually live in Hoffman Estates? I thought it was just car dealerships, strip malls, and chain restaurants. They should play this one on the grass field in Oz Park next to LP High. At least you could leave at halftime and get to Brando's for some karaoke.
I GOT YOU BABE!!

Genesseo @ Sullivan
Every year, Genesseo pays for at least on CPL Team to roll into Genesseo and play early in the season. Apparently, they pay for everything. Transportation, food, etc... Hope they aren't looking for Sully to pay them for making the trip to Lane Stadium for this one. Sorry Leafs, CPL can't get the bathrooms working in that joint, let alone pay for your bus.
Look for quarters in the couch!

Amundsen @ Geneva
Geneva has to be thinking that Amundsen is going to be distracted by the Lululemon wearing, baby stroller pushing, Pumpkin spice sipping, avocado toast eating crowd that will be pre game tailgating on a beautiful Geneva Saturday afternoon. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Joke is on them! Amundsen plays in Winnemac Park Baby!! They cut their teeth on Athleta and Canada Goose, and sweat pumpkin spice!
I LOVE FALL!!!
 
It's Ghhost's big night and he's taking time out of that crazy schedule to drop CPL love on us all. Thanks buddy, stay blessed and happy haunting!

Senn @ Carey-Grove
Speaking of haunting that Senn team is known for it. I was back at the Har Hig the other night and overheard these two random guys reminiscing about some old HS football days. They start talking about who they played and then the one guy starts in, then we played Senn. Other guy without missing a beat says, let me guess they showed up 30 minutes late rolled off the bus and got after it. I almost spit out my beer. The legend is real. No Way the DAWGZ don't shock the world and take down CG.

Hoffman Estates @ Lincoln Park
Hoffman Estates sounds like the snobbiest softest suburb there is. You know who's not soft though? The kids that are playing on broken glass in the middle of that grass field for a few years before they get called up to varsity and play at the grizzled bathroom-less mecca known as Lane Stadium. True character builder that upbringing is. But even with that mindset I just can't get past one feeling...
NOBODY messes with the Hoff! See you at the top. Trim the shrubbery Estates escapes.

Genesseo @ Sullivan
Genesseo is for sure an encased meat packing plant right? Sullivan sleeps on the salami, stumbles and gets slaughtered.

Amundsen @ Geneva
Did somebody say weekend antiquing?!? I'm guessing the fine Winnemac parkers have their bags packed and are making it a weekend. Unfortunately they're coming home with everything but a W, pack up the Wagoneers!
