Extra IL coalfield history-May Day posts: The Coal Mine wars of the 1930’s had workers fighting workers (and National Guard) in service of mine owners. Tovey had very competitive men's soccer from 1916-1940’s. Tovey was where, Andrew Gyenes, became an early victim of the wars.
Is it: “History repeats itself” or “History doesn’t repeat itself but it rhymes”? On May 5, 2024 @ChicagoHouse_AC men's 1st team takes on United Serbian SC in a repeat of our 2023 Amateur Cup match. House will be looking for a Twain result after last year's 2-1 loss. #CHACHistory
Coal Mine #8 was the reason for Tovey (1920 pop: 913), and in 1921 the immigrants to this new town had a competitive soccer team in the Central Illinois Professional League. Imagine, a town of <1000, had an opportunity for soccer as a profession in 1920’s Illinois coalfields. 2/2
52 Weeks of IL mining towns soccer history Post 17: Taylorville, IL is the Christian County seat, and was founded before coal mining was prevalent. As mines opened in early 20th century, new towns were constructed nearby, and soccer was a key sport. Tovey was founded in 1910. 1/2
I can watch this all day 💆🏻
🥊 Round 2 of the USASA Region II Amateur Cup resumes this weekend! On Saturday, new boys @NorthIndianaFC . visit Valhalla of the OVPL, then @InterDetroit hosts @MichiganStarsFC U-23s.
Friday Finishing after Training 😎⚽️
The rematch from last year's Amateur Cup tilt is set. House will once again travel to WI to face United Serbian SC on 5/5 at 5PM. Take a short trip north of the border to support House, see how the squad is shaping up ahead of our MWPL opener on 5/14 and stock-up on Spotted Cow!
I don’t like what happened today, one bit.

Great to catch up with @NateDMiller Incredible journey and testament to what can be achieved with hard work. Amazing ⚽️👏🏽
Good morning! Time for the final voting of the sweet 16! You can vote at lowerleagueusa.com/march-madness-… Good luck to @LubbockMatadors, @FCBuffalo, @SiouxFallsCity @ChicagoHouse_AC, @AnnapolisBlues , @LivoniaCityFC, @OklahomaCityFC, and @riverlightfc !
In the 1930’s, coal mining in Taylorville-area was common, and the men’s soccer team incorporated immigrants from a surprising place: France. Zephir Plouviez, captain of the miners in 1932, was unique enough to be called simply “Frenchy” in game reports. 2/2 #SupportLocalSoccer
52 Weeks of IL mining towns soccer history Post 16: Sporting success was expected in Taylorville (pop. 10,506). The 1944 HS boys basketball team was 45-0 and won IL white state championship. Men's soccer was also very competitive in 1920’s Farrington Cup. 1/2 #SupportLocalSoccer

@LaurenceWHolmes I’m a pastor. I did not like the prayer. It felt very manipulative.
@mjeffries645 Usually it’s the folks that can’t afford to be taken advantage of too. That’s one of my problems with it.
@LaurenceWHolmes I’m glad you spoke out, and made it clear who wrong this was. There’s a lot of this going on where people are being taken advantage of like this. Great radio today.
I don’t like what happened today, one bit.
.@LaurenceWHolmes was upset by the Bears having a pastor speak at their press conference. “You chose to ask for God’s grace for a stadium. You should be ashamed. “You are using the word of God to try and fleece the flock for billionaires.” Listen: shorturl.at/jyBX3
