Green Hotels? Yeah, right.....
I'm sure many of you have checked into hotels and seen the signs about how they're "so concerned about the environment" and all with the option for using your towels and sheets more than once. But recently, I checked into a hotel in Kansas City and at the front desk, they gave me the whole...

Re: Tournament Committee = Thumbs Up Their Asses!
So let me get this straight. Since Duke has 3 white guys in the starting lineup, somehow that makes them a more television draw? Wow. By that logic, the NHL would kill in the ratings.
