Hey everyone! My apologies for a lack of updates to "Notes From The Pressbox." Really no excuses, just had a tough time thinking of something relevant to ramble on about as far as sports are concerned. So I thought I'd ask for your thoughts or favorite recollections of sports. Whether it be baseball, football, racing, basketball, tennis, golf, etc....what memory brings a smile to your face whenever you think about it?
It could be a game you attended, played in, watched on TV, whatever. Just write a little diddy and let us know about it in the comment section provided below. As for mine, it's a tie between watching my beloved Bulls and MJ in the 90's win year after year after year. As a fan of Chicago sports, all the success on the court by the Bulls wasn't really something I was too accustomed to. Right up there, it's got to be the 2003 Major League playoffs with my Cubbies. Now I know what you're thinking, only a Cubs fan would have a fond memory of LOSING, but despite the end result, that was a fun, fun time to be a Cubs fan. Hey, it was uncharted territory, again, something I'm not too accustomed to as a Cubs backer.
Again, a comment section is provided below, let us know about your favorite sports memory. Thanks again for reading.

I guess I would break mine down into being a spectator or a participant.
As a participant, I would have to choose Melvin-Sibley's regional tournament victory in 1983. We beat GCHS in the semi-finals and then Saybrook-Arrowsmtith in the anti-climatic championship. We then lost to the Thad and Greg Matta led Hoopeston Cornjerkers in the sectional @ Watseka. I was a junior and didn't play that much, but it was still a thrill.
A backup to that would be winning a sectional championship and going to state while coaching the Tri-Point JH Lady Raiders in 2001.
As a spectator, it would probably have to be the 2006 baseball postseason. The Cards team was a big surprise that year, anyway, and to watch them continue to win playoff series and eventually the World Series was a thrill.
