Better Late Than Never

Greg Swartzentruber and I traveled to Los Angeles over the weekend to visit a worship minister candidate. We hardly did any sightseeing, but we had to see one important landmark. I guess it’s better late than never. Go BUCKS!

New Poll

Check out my new poll on the right-hand column. Baseball is in the air! Let me know your thoughts on the Cleveland Indians this year. Will this be the year? Personally, I’m not holding my breath.
LET’S GO TRIBE!  

A Snowy Script Ohio

Take a look at the video below. How sweet is this? GO BUCKS!

Ohio State 42, Michigan 7

Five years in a row. Wow! If you’re a Michigan fan, please understand that we have to revel in this while we can. I’m sure the tables will be turned soon.

GO BUCKEYES!

The Blind Date

This is perfect as we anticipate the Ohio State / Michigan game tomorrow. Here’s the beginning of the script leading up to the first words. It got cut off for some reason.

The Masters

I’ve got to admit that I’m pretty pumped about watching The Masters golf tournament today and tomorrow. Who is the favorite after two rounds? Tiger is five shots back. Phil is seven shots back. Sounds like playing conditions are really difficult this year. Maybe Fuzzy Zoeller will mount a charge. Anything can happen.
Give me your [...]

Bracketology

Two of the best weekends in sports are forthcoming. This weekend is the Final Four and next weekend is The Masters golf tournament. I’ve got to brag a little and say that I picked all of the final four teams correctly. I sure messed up a lot of other games, but I got the final [...]

The Kardiac Kids

Watching the Buckeyes against Xavier and Tennessee reminds me of the Cleveland Browns in the early 80’s. But hopefully the Buckeyes, unlike the Browns, can win a championship.
The Buckeyes basketball team also reminds me of the National Championship football team back in ‘02. They won a lot of close games and eventually won it all. [...]
