One Wish

     There's a lot that I could do with but a single wish. So much could be done to improve my year. I could wish that my Cincinnati Bengals wouldn't suck, that we'd have a run at the top, and better yet, the Steelers would have a turn at the bottom of the league for 20 years or so.  Andy Dalton really WOULD be Joe Montana, with AJ Green as his Jerry Rice. There would be no more legal troubles. Mike Brown would hire a GM, build a practice bubble, get some scouts, and hire a great HC.  Bengals fans could finally be rewarded for years of loyalty.
     Or my Kentucky Wildcats could become even more dominant. We'd win 3 straight championships, beating Duke in the finals of every game, at least 1 of them at the last second so I can stop seeing Christian Laettner every March. John Calipari could stop being compared with Rick Pitino, and would sign a lifetime contract, and more importantly, would really honor it. We'd sign the best players every year, and the NCAA would never investigate us once.
     The Cincinnati Reds would become the Big Red Machine once more. Joey Votto would never leave, and win multiple MVPs in a Reds uniform, while a few Cy Young awards would come this way too. Albert Pujols would sign and break the all-time HR record in Cincinnati, on a grand slam to clinch the division, against the Braves, who would suck for all-time.
     The Lakers would go on an unprecedented run of losing, while the Heat win a championship...the year after LeBron leaves.
     Notre Dame would finally join a conference...Conference USA, due to nobody else wanting them.
     College football would finally come to their senses and have a playoff system to determine the national champion.
     Instead of being on 4 channels, March Madness would be on every channel.
     The New York Yankees and Dallas Cowboys would both be contracted.
     The USA would win the world cup and every gold medal at the Olympics.
     Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson would wreck each other in every single race.
     So much could be done.  But maybe, I should use my wish for the greater good. I could wish for world peace, or a cure for all diseases. I could wish for the world's hunger problem to be solved, or for every homeless man, woman, child, or pet to have a place to live. I really could do great things with a solitary wish...but man, I really want to see my Bengals win a ring.
