it's monday...

I could talk about the Bears, and how they were fortunate that Peyton Manning wasn't his usual self....

I could talk about how Matt Forte looks like the real deal...

Or how my Iggles are the best team in the NFC....

but, as I'm taking stock of the recent prep week, I thought it was worth mentioning a surprise "stat of the week":

Plano QB Johnny Mendez has more passing yards this year than Geneva's Brandon Beitzel...

and, last but certainly not least, a correction to a Saturday story: East Aurora starting running back and linebacker Leon Harden was not arrested during a sideline skirmish at the Tomcats/Yorkville Foxes game Friday night. We regret the misidentification.
