    -- Wimbledon, before Federer fades
    -- The French Open, before Nadal fades
    -- Complete the trifecta of major races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I've seen the 500, so just the U.S. Grand Prix (if it stays there) and The Brickyard 400.
    -- National Finals Rodeo

    I'd like to spend July in Europe.

    Catch the end of Wimbledon, the British Open, hop the ferry across the Channel for Le Tour, maybe even squeeze in a day or two in Pamplona watching the machitos getting trampled by bovines. You could probably get in on some soccer exhibitions (European Championship in the right year) or an F1 race along the way.

    Attend the first Browns' Super Bowl in which they — gasp! — win.

    One more thing I'd like to see, Ohio in the Final Four. I mean, it could happen, right?

    I've visited all four major sports halls of fame, been at Indy and seen the bricks, saw a goalie score a goal in the NHL playoffs and saw Navy play in a bowl game. I've been to Yankee Stadium and the Astrodome (marched on the field, no less), seen the Oilers, Rockets, Astros, N.Y.Rangers, Devils and more, saw the Hartford Whalers at the Mall and seen the UConn women during their first undefeated run back in the '90s.

    I've done so much of what I've wanted to see. All that's left is to see a championship game in one of the major sports. I'd actually prefer it to be the Rockets in the NBA finals or the Devils when they win the Cup.

    I already have been to Fenway a bunch of times, Celtics and Bruins playoff games, and this past April, a WrestleMania. Next on the list is invading Yankee Stadium in August for Yanks-Sox decked out in Sox gear. I would love to attend a Superbowl, especially if the Foxborough crew are prominently involved.

    I'd love to cover the tennis majors, but as long as I cover one Olympics I can die a happy man.

    Oh, and nailing Natalie Coughlin on the 18th green at Augusta would be nice, too.

    I'd like to attend a Kentucky Derby, the Masters, Grand Prix of Monaco, an important soccer game in the English Premier League, see the AllBlacks play, Daytona 500 (or maybe Talledega),. The thing is, I'm not into horse racing, car racing, soccer, or rugby but I know all would be great events because I'd be surrounded by 100,000+ rabid fans.

    For sports I like....basketball games at Rupp Arena, Cameron, Kansas' Fieldhouse, football at Notre Dame.

    I've seen the Red Sox win a World Series, and have covered every inch of Fenway Park, so those are done. All thats left is seeing the Bruins win a Cup.
