GROBBER’S MONDAY RANTS—April 5,2010

***Some weekend! It started with Arena Football returning and the Chicago Rush defeating the Iowa Barnstormers Friday night in Des Moines.Then it was over to Indianapolis where Butler kept it’s great season rolling with a two point win over Michigan State and Duke hammered West Virginia setting up a Title Game Monday evening behind the Bulldogs and Blue Devils Monday night.Sunday,the Blackhawks,who just a week ago had dropped three straight,have now won three in a row and clinched their first Division crown in 17 years! Now it’s Opening Day for Baseball. The White Sox send Mark Beuhrle against the Cleveland Indians and Jake Westbrook on the South Side while the Cubs later in the afternoon will have Carlos Zambrano opposing Derrick Lowe and the Braves in Atlanta. Also at Miller Park,the Brewers will start Yovanni Gallardo against the Colorado Rockies today.
