legitimate possibility with no bias

It’s that time again for Chicago’s famous cross-town baseball rivalry with the Cubs and Sox going at it. The morning of the series opener, our local newspaper had a front page article posing the question, “Does God care who wins the series?”  The article has some interesting things to say and I’m not exactly sure where I stand on the issue theologically — however, with no World Series championship in over 100 years the answer seems somewhat obvious.   Sorry B, thanks for tics…go Sox!

the madness of march

If you don’t care about college basketball ignore the following entry.

Did you fill out your NCAA brackets? It’s a requirement in my family. Since my kids were old enough to point they have participated. Being away at college is no excuse, my daughter at NU had to fill one out and give me her picks. FYI  My wife won last year, but this year my team will take it all — Go LOUISVILLE!

Who are you picking?  Not everyone’s favorite team makes it into the “Big Dance”  as the Paul Brogan video shows.  Who is Paul Brogan? I don’t know exactly but he proves that the tournament does bring out the madness. And Paul, I accept your apology for the unnecessary rhyme.

Sox Win!

Corey and I celebrated the Sox 1-0 win over Minn Twins. I did what we have labeled “beat the twinkies” dance. It’s off to the playoffs!

Sox vs Cubs

Now that the less than amiable Chicago baseball cross-town rivalry series is finally over, here’s the final analysis – Cubs - 3 wins, 3 losses. Sox -3 wins, 3 losses. It’s a tie! Both teams scored 31 runs. Both teams are good this year. Both teams lead their divisions. Both teams come from the very cool city of Chicago. Can’t we all just get along? How about a big collective HUG?  Where’s the love?
