As a minister, this day is always a day of great anticipation. I always look forward to Easter Sunday and celebrating with my congregation the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Anyone reading this that is a member of Faith Lutheran Church and/or lives in the Flora area is welcome to join us tomorrow morning for a breakfast at 8:30, followed by a church service at 10:00. Following church tomorrow, I head to Crown Point, IN to spend time with my favorite person, my girlfriend Stephanie Velzke along with her "Indiana family," the Hoernigs.
Less important, as a sports fan today is a great day because today is Final Four day. Butler vs. Michigan St. in the first game, followed by West Virginia vs. Duke. I must say that no matter who wins the Butler/Mich. St. game, I will not be disappointed. I am a Big Ten fan, so I like Michigan St. However, Butler has been the "feel good" story of the Tournament so I don't mind seeing them win either. I am hoping West Virginia knocks off Duke just so people such as "Duke" Vitale, Jay Bias, and Seth Davis can whine and cry this evening!
There is also anticipation as a sports fan because baseball season is about to start. Tomorrow the Yanks play the Red Sox (aka: the only two teams in baseball that matter according to ESPN). The Cubbies open play Monday in Atlanta while the Cardinals open in Cincinnati. The White Sox open at Comiskey Park (It's always Comiskey Park to me) against the Cleveland Indians (no, not the team with Jake Taylor, Wild Thing Vaughn, Rube Baker or Willie Mays Hayes!)
