Wise's Bio

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.

Hey Wise,

Decided to start doing weekly MLB Power Rankings. If you get the chance, I'd like it if you took a look. Thanks.

Hey,

After the great success of my first article about the uniform numbers 1-10, I have come back with the next installment, with the best players to wear the uniform numbers 11-20. I hope you can take a look and even comment on my choices. Thanks in advance!

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.

Hey Wise Guides,

John Sterling is one of the most eccentric and passionate play-by-play announcers in all of sports. Here is a gaze into the heart, soul, and lungs of New York Yankees radio. I would love to hear your comments and feedback on a great, yet quirky man.

Hey Wise Guides,

SI’s Selena Roberts has chosen to haunt A-Rod, and do anything in her power to achieve money, success, and fame. Is she really so different than A-Rod after all? Read why I said “NO.” I would love to hear your comments and feedback.
