Bears Win, Colts Win; Best Superbowl Ever?
Sections: Sport Jan 22nd, 2007 6 Comments
It doesn’t get any better for someone who grew up in Northern Indiana. Both teams I’ve gorwn up with are in the Superbowl. That said growing up closer to Chicago and now living there means I’ll be squarely in the Bears camp for the next two weeks.
Go Bears!
Notre Fooball Success & the South Bend Marriott
Sections: Sport Jul 14th, 2006 2 Comments
From Gene Wojciechowski’s ESPN column:
A year ago the South Bend Marriott required a two-night minimum stay during a Notre Dame football weekend. I know, because my company credit card was billed $299 per night.
Now for the Sept. 9 home opener against Penn State the Marriott is requiring a three-night minimum for — are you sitting down? — $649 (plus tax) per night. By the way, the 298-room hotel is sold out. The Marriott loves Weis.

The Sun ran a photo of one linesman grabbing his backside so as not to expose the tattered seam, and an umpire named Stuart Taylor was quoted as saying, “It was embarrassing. There were lots of accidents and ripping sounds.”
