On the heels of Michael Ventrella's recent win, NBC is once again looking to Chicago in hopes of finding "The Biggest Loser." The reality weight loss show will be holding an open casting call this Saturday from 10am to 6pm at NBC Tower, 454 N. Columbus Drive. Already have weekend plans or don't want to brave the heat? You can still send in an application and videotape the old-fashioned way.
