SMART MOVE
The Chicago Cubs plan to invite VCU coach Shaka Smart and Butler coach Brad Stevens to sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" after the NCAA tournament. Smart says, "My grandfather unfortunately is probably in his last days with us. But some of my fondest memories with him are going to Wrigley Field, sitting on the first base side trying to catch some foul balls. Chicago is my favorite city in the whole country, and I've spent a lot of time in the city of Chicago as a kid. "It was kind of a second home for me. I'm a big Cubs fan, probably been to -- conservatively -- 50-60 Cubs games over the years. I once caught a Ryne Sandberg foul ball at my grandfather's feet. So I'm a big Cubbies fan."
