Do you think all we talk about is sports?

Picture Cincinnati Post columnist Lonnie Wheeler, Gannett News Services reporter Mike Lopresti, Associated Press reporter Mark Schmetzer and myself eating dinner in the media hospitality room at U.S. Bank Arena tonight. Can you guess the content of our conversation?

Was it about the upcoming Xavier/Charlotte matchup? The NCAA Tournament speculation surrounding the UC Bearcats? Was it in regard to some other general sports topic?

Nope.

We were engaged in a lengthy, and quite well-informed, discussion about our favorite episodes of the Andy Griffith Show.

Everything was going fine until Enquirer columnist Paul Daugherty showed up and got us on a Happy Days tangent.
