Well well well.....tis the season to be Irish!!! This weekend Ryan and Sam will have the streets, bars, and girls covered in downtown Minneapolis, MN for St. Patrick Day's weekend! Stay tuned for more...... Showers are done, drinks are being drunk, remixes are being listened to and all the while women are waiting for the night to begin. Here we go! Sam here with an update.....let's just say they don't call me Champion for nothing! Playing war (the card game not the computer game) with Ryan and let me tell ya....he SUCKS! I am destroying him! General Sam is a Champion! We're 3 drinks in each and feeling very Irish! More to come....
The morning after...........WOW.....what a great first night! If you aren't in the Twin Cities for the weekend you best pack your bags and get here. Ryan and Sam took this town to a whole new level last night. We started out at Nami Sushi with some Bailey's on the rocks and crab cakes followed by some sushi. Great meal to start the night. Next we headed over to the Ugly Mug and continued to enjoy the Irish drink Bailey's on the rocks. Drinks in hand and scoping out the bar, we finagled over to the pool table (which was broken might I add...The MN bars just don't have the same level of craftsmenship as the WI bars do when it comes to bar games). Anywho, we got some balls from the bar tender and played these two chaps who thought they belonged on ESPN Pool TV. To make things interesting, the loser had to buy a round of shots. Well, if anything is on the line, Mr. Ryan Barrou brings his A game, and that he did! He ran the table like he ran the Get Lucky Triple 7! So pool game one, shots of Goldschlager down the hatch, and on-ward to another bar.

Sun, what make the sun so GREAT!
Yes guys, you know what I'm talking about...since the sun has come out this week women have come out of their caves and shown why we are thankful for the sun. You might not normally compare bears and women but in this case YES! All winter most people wait for Christmas or the new year, no i wait for the sun to unveil the most amazing thing "great looking women"! I do have examples...so I've been the member of a gym now for 2 months and i go about 4-5 times a week and so I like to work out a little but what gives a guy drive like a girl in tight workout pants and a couple of different color tank tops overlaying one another and they end up matching her shoes! Over those past 2 months it has been like a cold gym with just guys, I'm not that big of a guy so it's not like i can just walk around and have gym swagger, so I sat on a bike or ran or went late at night to avoid that exact guy! BOOM, the sun came out on Monday and so did the hibernation of outrageously great looking women! Thank You Sun and thank you tight workout Capri's! If anybody has any great pics feel free to post! - The Playboy Grado King himself, Mr. Barrou!
Sam Champion here as this blog's resident weather expert and I too must agree with Ryan! The sun = Hot women! And being a weather man.....that is great math...and I'm not a math major either....both Ryan and Peter can attest to that : ) So, as the weather warms up, so does the clothing attire, the hormones and pheromones, and the possibilities of having a wonderful day and time with beautiful people! Sun makes everything better! So let’s hear it for the sun and what it brings! Today being a lovely day in the greatest state, Wisconsin for those who thought of another state, had lot of positive things come to life as a result of our friend the Sun! Not only were there a lot of very good looking women out and about, they were very friendly and ready to mingle. One was even forward enough to compliment your one and only Sam Champion on his beautiful baby blue eyes! Albeit, she was a cougar, but hey, I’ll take the comps anytime from an admirer! Aside from that, people are just in a better mode with the sun finally gracing us with its presence for more than a couple of hours. Readers, followers, and others, please share your thoughts, stories, and praise for the Sun! He is great and almighty like our CFO, Peter Dufferson, who by the way ladies, handles our monies : )
Today’s post was brought to you by the letters S U N and paid for by HOT WOMEN EVERYWHERE INC.! Thank you for being a sponsor of the Sun and supporting our blog!
- XOXO, Sam Champion……where there’s a story, there’s the Sconnie Boys’ COO : )

March Madness Begins...What its tuesday!
Yes, more play-in games this year from 2 games to 4 this year and look for more to come in future years! This year i started looking at the brackets and besides the #1 seeds i didn't know where else to go with my picks. My fellow Kobalero posted he liked UConn in an earlier post, but please they are tired kemba is only one man and they are going to run into Penn State...just kidding, they should have a great shot of making it to the sweet 16 and possibly farther. Sorry about that nonsense, my pick to win the show is Kansas in one bracket and Ohio St. in another. They are built on veterans and athletes, what is better than that combination...in the game of basketball that is? I know our blog shows favoritism for the Wisconsin Badgers but this year looks to be very gloom, with now all stars and Mike Bruzewitz on the sidelines it could be an early exit for the badgers. If anybody has any help with brackets feel free to post, could always use another point of view, I only watch big ten basketball and don't get to watch a lot of the other teams till conference tourneys! - Ryan Barrou, CEO OUT!!!!!
Okay....even though I love this season (March Madness), I can't predict winners when it comes to the NCAA Tourney like I can predict weather to ensure success for guys and gals to have a fun time! With that said, my picks are in and we'll see how I stack up against Ryan and Peter. Those two live and breathe sports….not literally but they know a heck of a lot more than I do….I just enjoy watching and playing them. Any who, like my fellow Kobalero, Mr. Ryan Barrou, I have Ohio St and Kansas playing for the grand prize with Ohio St cutting down the nets. My UConn Huskies will make it to the Elite 8 but that’s where I have them fall. I'd love to pick them to win it but this just isn't their year (next year will be). So, there you have it....the quick and dirty version of my picks and I already feel like I picked all the wrong games.....see told ya I wasn't good at predicting winners! As a sidebar or note, please refer to my fellow Sconnie Boys (CEO and CFO) for sports advice and come to me (COO) for advice on anything and everything else : )
Thanks for reading and best of luck to all of you who are playing this marvelous thing known as March Madness! May you pick the right teams to advance to take the house from Vegas (feel free to donate some of your winnings to our site as the Sconnie Boys love the Vegas!

Best Holiday of the Spring...Let's hear about other great Holidays!
Hello out there,
One question for all those reading this blog...if anybody, the man writing the March Madness blog must have not been irish or had a taste for Green Beer, Women in plaid, or much of an accent. For me St. Patrick's Day is the best holiday in the spring with drinking, drinking and girls drinking....sounds pretty fantastical to me! I live in Minneapolis (thats right champion "Minneapolis") parades start at 6pm on thursday followed by pub crawls and hopefully bad decisions thereafter! Now if you are sitting at home this weekend and wondering why you are bored or by yourself watching basketball, remember your friend Ryan said get your ass to Minneapolis and join in on the live music, the "Get Lucky" run where let me remind you last year there was a 3:1 girl to guy ratio and so if you like these leggy, flirty, probably drunk girls trying to act irish you have only yourself to blame! Look to your left look to your right and yeah you should be in Minneapolis! Thanks for reading this blog it has been sponsored by Durex the most trusted brand of condoms, its like a school psych in that it's always there to help you be protected!

March Madness - The Best Holiday Season of the Spring!
Okay people! This is what we've all been waiting for......The NCAA Division 1 Men's Basketball Championship! The field of 64 (well 60 of the 64 teams are in round 2) has been set! Time to start bracketing and picking winners! Will Duke repeat? Will the 1 seeds make it to the Final 4? Or will there be a surprise team this year? Who knows what will be but we do know who's in and who's not. Get those brackets out, your iPhone searching for the stats, and start navigating your way to the championship round! My bet is with my beloved UConn Huskies! Let's go Walker!
RtI Summit - Green Bay, WI
AH, Titletown USA! Not a bad place might I say!
This past week I got to not only experience Green Bay in style just like the Packers, but I also got to explore this fascinating place known as Titletown USA while on business! Yes, on business....the only way to travel and go because its not on my dime : )
The basics, the conference was held in downtown Green Bay, WI at the swanky Sierra Hotel and K1 Convention Center. Very nice place and well run conference. Aside from the plush setting, I learned some great things but even better, got to see better things. The oval office, body shop (jk....I wouldn't go to those places while on business.....for pete sakes...I'm COO B%#ch! But I did go to the Coaches Corner for lunch.....delicious burger and packed packed packed! From there, I took in the 2 keynote speakers......I should have been one but that is for another time : ) The evening was the best! I went out with some work fold and met up with 2 of my friends at Titletown Brewery and Bar! Let me tell you....very cool place. Old railroad building with 2 levels of fun. The upstairs......also known as the VIP room (Yes, Sam Champion is VIP....look it up). This level featured a bar with all the Titletown beers on tap.....the few I tried....very tasty and highly recommended! Aside from the bar, there were pool tables, jukebox, and wait for it...........SHUFFLEBOARD! A professional length one...its was like a mile long............heavenly! On this journey I did not get to play shuffleboard but next time I will. This time I was too busy playing pool with my boss (sorry Mr. CEO, it wasn't you...beside....you aren't my boss....I am : ) Anywho. my boss is a fricken pool shark and he was half in the bag getting deeper and was still shooting the lights out. I won 1 game by default. The games were close but I wasn't able to beat him outright. Fun times. Between schmoozing with the big wigs and socializing with my friends......beer and apps were had and enjoyed. If you are ever in Green Bay, please check out Titletown Brewery! At about 10pm the place started to clear out, so me and my friends when to one more place for a nightcap. Oh, I almost forgot, the most important part of the evening.......the sleazy gov from WI got his cronies to illegally pass a bill that will ruin WI....yes RUIN WI. Thanks a lot SW! Glad I didn't vote for your dumbass......my ass could do a better job! Oh well....that's also for another time. The nightcap was at another very nifty place in DT GB (that's downtown Green Bay for those that don't speak cool or awesome). The last stop was at Fox Harbor Bar. Historical building but very nice. Me and my friends played darts and had some lovely Crown Old Fashions....wow...those were good! In between winning at darts I was texting Ryan Barrou, the CEO of this lovely site to let him know how cool GB was! However, he wasn't getting back to me....must have been working some girl that he is in deep with! So the drinks were gone, the games were over, and at 11pm this champion needed to get some shut eye to rule the school world in the AM.
Green Bay, WI! Great city, great people, and great things to do! Until next time, stay sharp, be cool, and be a champion!
XOXO, Mr. COO, Sam Champion......the champion of champions!
Spell check next time champion of all champions...just not at spelling! Great post and I think we need to post something about march madness, by the way make sure you forward me a bracket by Monday so I can get you in the pool with the guys.
- Till next time Ryan Barrou
Yes, I know about spell check. As soon as I hit post I was like shit....I forgot to spell check! Oh well....the jist is still there! And yes, I'll send you bracket via email! Its March Madness Baby! Go UCONN! - Mr. Spell-It Sammy Champion : )
