Last weekend, my wife and I visited the Chicago Botanic Garden. While it’s not in Chicago (it’s in Glencoe) and the word “garden” doesn’t nearly do it justice, it is very botanic (botanic, of course, being the Latin word for “full of allergens”).
Luckily, all of the tree pollen in the Chicago area had already wreaked complete and utter destruction on my sinuses a few weeks ago so I’m fairly certain my body now is either completely resistant to tree pollen or is entirely composed of it. Either way, I was ready to hang out with nature without feeling the need to sneeze all over it. Which I’m sure nature appreciated. If there was a Hallmark card for not sneezing on living things, one would be enroute to me as I write.
With my sinuses behaving, I could enjoy the Chicago Botanic Garden in all its glory. And I would argue that it’s at its gloriest (maybe not the best word I’ve ever made up) in mid-spring. The flowers have just woken up and are ready to start their day. The vegetable garden is starting to come along.

Will Brinson of CBS Sports recently ranked all 32 quarterbacks in the NFL from best to worst and former Baylor standout Robert Griffin III was right in the middle of the pack at No. 15.
Brinson classified RG3 as one of the young guns in the same category as Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick.
Below is what Brinson said about RG3.
Can I get a big, fat asterisk for this selection? I cant possibly leave RG3 out of this group, but hes also dealing with an ACL injury suffered in the playoffs last season that very much makes 2013 a gigantic question mark. When healthy, Griffins one of the most dynamic playmakers weve seen in a long time. He took the lowly Redskins back to the playoffs and he did it with a combination of deadly accurate passing and awe-inspiring running. Healthy weapons and an improved defense and, most importantly, Griffin being healthy, should equate to another big season.
You can .
If I had to redo his list, heres how Id rank a totally healthy RG3 among the NFLs best.
1. Aaron Rodgers

The net loss in 2013 as compared to net income in 2012 was primarily attributable to decreased revenues in 2013.
