Saw Bruce Springsteen for the first time this past Saturday night at the U.S. Bank arena.  I thought it was a good blend of old and new songs including a couple gems that I wasn't expecting.  It was a packed house including the seats behind the stage that had a good view of the stage, but mostly the back of the band.  Bruce did start almost an hour late which was a little disappointing, especially since I'm 6'4" and had to sit in those narrow aisles at the Arena.  "She's The One", "Badlands" and "Glory Days" were three of my favorites from the show.  His new songs fit right in with his classic material.

Have you filled out your tournament brackets yet?  We do it here at WGRR and now my kids want in so we started a home pool.  I'm also competing in four different online bracket challenges.   My final four - UCLA, North Carolina, Georgetown and Texas with UCLA winning it all.

Brett Favre says its for real, he's retiring after 17 years in the NFL.  One my favorite Brett Favre memories from his last game here in Cincinnati.
