I am typing this as I watch Memphis battle Kansas for the NCAA Championship. It has been a very good game. Kansas coach Bill Self has his kids playing very well defensively. They are blocking shots, getting back on defense quickly, and shutting down Chicago's...
March brings many good things to sports fans in Chicago. It is the beginning of spring and the end of that blasted wintry snow-rain mix. The sun is actually still out at 4:30 in the afternoon. The Bulls and Blackhawks seasons come to an anti-climactic...
I made a list a few years back of the top 10 things I wanted to see before I died. Most of these wishes, or dreams, involved gorgeous Swedish models. Some items on the list were career related, like starting a hot dog stand. Yea, I want to sell hot dogs...

It's time for March Madness! Put down that book, forget about TIVO, and quit doing work for next 2 weeks. Stick yourself in front of a TV and a bracket and let's have some fun! Check out my picks and get a chance to see the method to my madness this year! Woohoo!...
