The word "team" is often overused in sports writing. It's used casually to refer to a collection of players that represent any old franchise or college. It's used passionately to describe a rooting interestthat's our team. And, occasionally, it's used to discuss what has come to be a clich: the idea of a group of individuals coming together for the common good, sacrificing all personal gain for the greater goal of winning a championship. Serious scribes don't toss around that meaning of the word team lightlyor very often. And with good reason. In sports, there's rarely a cause to use it. But, there is no wiser usage of the word "team"a unified core of players all working toward the same goalthan when applying it to the 200405 Fighting Illini squad that we've all come to cherish.
