To Watch Today...

• College Basketball: #6 Illinois @ Iowa. Dee Brown continues his Godzilla-like march through the Big Ten, but today, will face a very solid defense. [Big Ten Wonk] • Golf: Mercedes Championships. Stuart Appleby has a one-stroke lead, but I'm not sure who to root for in this one. I kinda hate anyone who spends January in Hawaii, playing golf for money. Well, except for native Hawaiians with gambling problems. I've got a soft spot for them. • College Basketball: #12 N.C. State @ #25 North Carolina. Because the winner of this one can claim that they are the 2nd-best team in their particular 25-mile radius.
