What an amazing finish to the NCAA Basketball Championship. The Jayhawks led it at the half, let things get a little hairy towards the end, then tie it back again with 2 seconds left with a CLUTCH 3-point shot from Mario Chalmers. In the overtime they took the lead and never looked back.

Due to the mix-up my mother-in-law suffered last November, we got free tickets to Smuckers Stars On Ice. We left the kids with a sitter, which was good, because we didn’t get home until 10:30.

ABCNews reports that Brett Favre has decided to retire from the Green Bay Packers. I loved watching this guy, the play-making of an Elway without the baggage of “Gee, did he have to do that to the Chiefs again?”

Great Super Bowl, unlike some. Congratulations to both teams.
What a mess with one second left.
The third week of the basketball season, I refereed three consecutive games, including the late girls’ basketball game. That turned out to be a good game. The score was pretty good for 7th and 8th grade girls, 32-30. It was probably the best game I officiated this season, with great athletic aggression but without the [...]
The AP reports that Oscar Pistorious, a double-amputee sprinter, cannot participate in the Beijing Olympics because his prosthetics give him an advantage over other runners.
It’s a cool world where this can actually happen. “We can rebuild him. We have the technology…”
Should he run in Beijing? No, of course not, any more than if [...]
