Want to see into the future? Who doesn’t? Lucky for you Prime has connections. Mr. Know It All tells all on what to expect next month in the world of sports, pop culture, and whatever the hell else he feels like spouting off on. Read on if you like but don’t tell your friends who like surprises.

Through history, April has been a hell of a month. It was April 15th, 1912, when the Titanic sank taking the lives of more than 1,500 people. Ironically the 15th is also the day when the U.S. government annually plays iceberg to millions of American taxpayers. Hitler was born on the 20th and Lincoln was shot on the 14th. When you think about it, it’s a wonder anybody leaves the house during April. Still, there’s a lot going on this month and it can’t all turn out bad…can it?

NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament – Championship game April 7
Sports are goofy. Baseball’s Boys of Summer decide the World Series in November, ice hockey’s Stanley Cup is awarded in June, and college basketball culminates its March Madness tournament with a championship game played on – you guessed it – April 7th.  College basketball ain’t what it used to be. Nobody gives a rip about the regular season and the good players come and go like they’re double-parked, but the tournament still commands our attention. My Final Four:  North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas, and Tennessee. National Champs: UCLA

Twins Off And Stumbling – April 15 
The Twins turn a new page this season without longtime stalwarts Tori Hunter and Johan Santana. The new guys aren’t bad, but they are untested and let’s face it, the Central Division is loaded. Hell, even the Royals are starting to well…not stink. It will take a while for all the new Twins to get on the same page and by then, the Tigers and Indians may be long gone. A 5 – 8 start won’t help.

NFL Draft  - April 26 & 27  
The NFL draft draws better TV ratings than a lot of World Series games. Says a lot about both sports. When a middle-aged guy mispronouncing names off a card every 15 minutes outdraws your showcase, you got more problems than HGH. Know what I mean, Bud? The draft intrigue this year will be who goes number 1. With no obvious choice, there could be some wheeling and dealing up top. My guess is the Dolphins deal out of the top spot and Atlanta takes BC quarterback Matt Ryan #1. BTW - if you miss the broadcast, don’t worry - word is the Patriots are taping it, natch.
