Always thinking about our guy, Barry Melrose, this time of year. I started covering NCAA Tournament television with Barry in 2006. Colby joined us in 2019. Barry had to retire in 2023 because of Parkinson's. Lives in Ohio now. Miss the big guy. I know he's watching. Miss the cigar smoke and his high volume cackle.
For anyone who would like to hear Mark Carney’s outstanding Davos speech in full here it is. This is what true global leadership looks like.
Canada should be immensely proud today, because they are leading the fight back when others dare not.

JFK and Jackie at a diner in Oregon, 1959. As Kennedy sat in the diner, he was a senator at the time and still relatively unknown in most parts of the country. He hadn't even officially announced that he was running for president.
However, during this photo, he was on an unofficial campaign trail, and most members of the Democratic Party knew he would run. In fact, back in Washington, a "Stop Kennedy" movement was already underway from his competitors.
Throughout 1959, Kennedy traveled the length and breadth of the land, with a full schedule of speeches and public appearances, combating critics and challengers attempting to derail his bid to win the Democratic nomination.
He traveled all over: the Midwest, California, attended a Cubs game, met Stan Musial (famous Cardinals baseball player), and visited a West Virginia coal factory. Interestingly, he faced smaller crowds out west, and in this photo, taken in Oregon, he was a virtual unknown.
"In Oregon," recalled photographer Jacques Lowe, who traveled with JFK for part of 1959, "Kennedy walked into a union hall to find eleven men waiting to hear him." Undeterred, according to Lowe, JFK didn't miss a step. "Without hesitation, he launched into his speech."
Remember: Charlie Chaplin died aged 88.
He left us 4 statements:
(1) Nothing is eternal in this world, not even our problems.
(2) I like to walk in the rain, because no one can see my tears.
(3) The most wasted day in life is the day we don't laugh.
(4) The six best doctors in the world...
1. sunshine,
2. Rest,
3. Exercise,
4. diet,
5. Self-esteem
6. friends.
Keep them in all stages of your life and enjoy healthy life...
If you see the moon you will see the beauty of God.....
If you see the sun you will see the power of god..
If you look in the mirror, you will see God's best creation.
Believe it then.
We are all tourists, God is our travel agent who already made our itineraries, bookings and destinations...
Trust him and enjoy LIFE.
Life is just a journey!
Live today!!!!
When Albert Einstein met Charlie Chaplin in 1931, Einstein said, "What I admire most about your art is its universality. You do not say a word, and yet the world understands you." "It's true." Replied Chaplin, "But your fame is even greater. The world admires you, when no one understands you."
