I'm Ready For Baseball Season


After IU's latest heartbreaking defeat in last night's Big Ten Tournament game...I have officially shifted focus to the baseball season. Normally this happens when IU plays its last game but I have zero confidence that they will win their first round game...no matter who it is against. This team's psyche is just to fractured and I don't think that Dakich and the rest of the coaching staff have the ability..in this short amount of time...to get these kids to play smart basketball. For a season that started off with so much potential...it's just so frustrating to see the season end a whimper and not with a bang.

On a different note...I was unable to secure tickets to the Obama rally today in Plainfield...but... he'll be back. I just wish he could concentrate on his message and not continually have to put out fires that do nothing but distract from the campaign. Obama had to spend last night--on various cable news outlets--denouncing inflammatory comments (made years ago) by his pastor
(Rev. Jeremiah Wright
) at his church (who is now since retired). Thankfully the only news outlet that is going completely crazy over this is Fox News (which isn't a surprise) so hopefully this story will not have legs...as it shouldn't.

Sorry to see your furniture is taking a beating. Hope baseball season is less frustrating!

Will you be waving signs outside the Obama event and looking for scalpers? I think you should! Looking forward to seeing you on the news!
