March Madness is here!!

This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. I don't know about you but I love college hoops. Always have. My dad, bless him, was an Illini fan in the 60's and we watch the old black and white when the Illinois team was on the air. I've been to very few games, but the hype is contagious. It IS fun to go to a game, dressed in orange and whooping it up like everyone else. But, I really enjoy the tournament, and by the Final Four time, I know the players pretty well, and have picked my favorites, that is, if Illinois is not in the running. I usually pick a Big Ten (big eleven?) team over any other, loyalty, you know. But, enjoy watching certain coaches like Bill Self, Coach K., Roy Williams, and, of course, our own Hooopeston boy Thad Matta. So, the games start this Thursday, and I have the brackets cut out of the Commercial News. If you need to get ahold of me, check out half-time.!!!!! F.
