Re: Chicago Restaurant Guide???

Of the standard Chicago pizza spots near the loop or gold coast, Lou Malnatis was the best to me. Definitely hit one of the hot dog places with the yellow Vienna hot dog sign, mostly the same, all good.

Re: College Basketball 2013-14

NCAA needs to be shut down all together. How can you seriously put that on a bracket when the widespread notoriety of the tourney is mostly dependent on casual gambling pools. Its about time for a big time school to back away from athletics entirely.

As for the Pats WR it took way more than 2 games to "work in" the rookies. Brady had horrendous stats until Amendola and Gronk where back because of drops, wrong routes, etc. etc. Yep. More like 2 years not 2 games. Those rookies pretty much did squat. Thompkins made a big play in the Sai...

I went to the AFC championship game against Jaguars(!) that year the Pats went to the superbowl and got stuck with 2 tix and had to sell less than face at the stadium. Vividly remember that. So the Pats weren't that far off a blackout even back then.
