About BabylonDon »

BabylonDon is a lifelong Chicago sports homer, of the most shameless variety. After an unendurable stint in Packerland, Don moved to Ottawa, making good on a threat to "move to Canada, if they ever elect a White Sox fan president."

A storied contrarian, BabylonDon also posts on politics, music, and events of the day at: http://www.politicalgroove.com/

In recognition of his many years of hard work and dedication , he was recently given the prestigious Lifetime Achievment Award by the 'Clean Plate Club'.

BabylonDon has a dog, and an occasional beer.

With Danny Granger having his best season last year, can he live up to expectations coming into the 2009-10 season with his beloved Indiana Pacers?

What did you think of the Packers - Bears game? I went back and studied the film to come up with some surprising observations, including the key play in the game that everyone has overlooked.

Comments are always appreciated.

Thanks,

Al
