I've been going to the annual NCAA Championship game the past few years. I shamelessly use the game to push my (and any sane person's) Anti-BCS agenda. As always, I wait too long to get tickets from the "official" channels and...

My creativity is squelched.
My (creative) juices are sucked dry.
I am uninspired.
It’s soot-gray.
Seriously. In just a few days, over just a few words, I’m more drained than I thought possible. Who would have thought it could have happened so quickly and...
