About Wise »

Wise Guides creates guide books to sports stadiums and ballparks and has a Web site, www.wiseguidesonline.com, where fans can access their content as well as rate and review their own game-day experiences. Wise Guides is run by Chicago brothers John and Andy Buchanan, who love sports but also strongly believe there is much more to going to a game than just sitting and watching the action: There are stadiums and neighborhoods to explore, no two alike, and food and drink to sample and history to learn and interesting people to meet. That's the philosophy of Wise Guides.

Zach Beatty commented on Notre Dame Football on, Yawn, NBC...Try To Stay Awake

As a huge Notre Dame fan, I agree the games to tend to drag out. But to keep the deal with NBC Notre Dame has to...

Hot Poll

Hot Poll: Should Notre Dame ask NBC to cut back on the commercials to shorten their games? 50 people have voted…

No, everybody does it and they need the dough and exposure to stay competitive

6.0%
Yes, I love football but the current situation is ridiculous

48.0%
Who cares, the first thing they need to do is fire Charlie Weis

This is my best friend in the world. Plus he can write a mean article. Check him out. If you say something nice, I'm sure he will mention you on his weekly sports talk show here in Vegas and worldwide on the www. He is paying me to do this.
