Morrissey is hands down the best columnist in Chicago and like his fellow Irish counterpart, Rick Reilly, can turn a phrase. Always a good read in the windy city no matter what the topic.

Rick Reilly has written a couple of absolutely hilarious golf novels. Great read. Of course, when it comes to sports writing, no one can touch Dan Jenkins imo.

Jenkins is right up there, and much more than a sports writer. I don't laugh out loud very often while reading, but Reilly in Who's your Caddy, specifically the John Daley chapter, had me soiling myself.

I hate myself for this but I'm rooting for Duke over West Virginia. If Duke wins then I win my bracket pool at work. I feel entirely too filthy over this situation. I hope Jurassic won't be too mad at me.

Krzyzewski versus Huggins? Hell, I hope neither team wins! Let 'em both forfeit and have MSU and Butler play for the National Championship.

Huggins? I'd like to see Krzyzewski versus Hogan! BTW - continuing off topic, Rowdy Roddy Piper now has a comedy nightclub act and regularly appears at a comedy club here in Portland, which is where he lives.

Yup, read that one too. Reilly has a new book out called "Sports From Hell; Search For The World's Dumbest Sports". I think it's about wimmens basketball. Haven't read it yet but I'm looking forward to doing so.

Sounds like yet again another golf book by Reilly.
