I was filming a homecoming story at Papa Del's and guess who walked in to do a pizza review. @stoolpresidente on tomorrow's Big Noon Kickoff: "It's a test of the student body whether they can be up early and ready to go..." More of what Portnoy said tonight at 6 on @WCIA3.


Had the opportunity to sit down and talk #Illini with @deebrown11 this morning. Check out the full exclusive interview here: wcia.com/sports/illini-…

Dee Brown stopped by WCIA this morning for an interview with @_peterhanson. He went 4-0 in Braggin' Rights games. "It was a pride thing - We can't lose to Missouri... We had a really good Christmas every time we played Missouri." Story coming up at 6. @deebrown11

Sneak it. Then you have 4 shots at the end zone with 2 TO’s in your pocket.


Made my anchor (and producer) debut on Thanksgiving! Nearly six months into full time reporting and appreciating every second.

Holiday weekend means we got to have TWO anchor desk debuts for some of our rookie reporters! @_peterhanson and Katie did so well in their first time anchoring at WCIA and I can't wait to see them continue to grow here

Welcome back to the NFL, Jake Moody!


What a moment for Nahshon Wright.

Kyle Hendricks, an under-the-radar prospect out of Dartmouth who developed into a World Series champion and one of the most consequential Cubs pitchers ever, is exiting the game the way he came in — with zero fanfare. nytimes.com/athletic/67963…


This warms my Illinois fan heart

ISAIAH WILLIAMS PUNT RETURN TD THE JETS HAVE TWO SPECIAL TEAMS TDS IN THE FIRST QUARTER CLEvsNYJ on CBS/Paramount+ watch.nfl.com



Unless the Cubs feel confident they can sign an ace (I doubt it), why would they get rid of one of their best pitchers and a fan favorite?

Breaking Cubs news: Lefty starter Shota Imanaga is a free agent, sources tell ESPN. The team rejected their option to extend his contract out to a fifth year. That triggered his ability to exercise a $15 million player option for 2026. He declined that as well.



Same old Bears

Found a really cool throwback in our WCIA 3 archives tonight. Back in 2018, seventh-grader and future #Illini Kylan Boswell made a game-winning buzzer-beater to send Urbana Middle School to the state tournament. Ice water in his veins since day one 😂🔥@BamBam_Boz


This is proving to be not ideal!

The Cubs have scored 68.2% (15 of 22) of their runs via homer this #Postseason. The percentage of runs scored via homer for the 11 other teams combined is 36% (72 of 200).

This Cubs game feels like a Bears game


Taking Shota out after 2 2/3 innings is certainly one of the choices of all time

I hate that this game basically feels like every Bears game I've ever watched


Just realized Mike Tomlin is coaching a quarterback who beat him in a Super Bowl… That has to be weird.
