4/7: The Return!

Sorry for my sketchiness the last couple days...back to civilization....and a big weekend that went down

To the College Hardwood....
  • Okay, okay...you all know who won the Final 4 games....and no, I didn't see them (anger) but I do know that I had 3 out of 4 possible matchups that would give me a chance to win my pool on Monday night.....and the 1 I didn't have (Mem/Kan) is what happened.....Unfortunate....However, I'll be locked in....don't worry about that....I'm gonna take Kansas, but I'm not convinced

  • Women's Tourney! Okay, I watched both games last night....pretty much in full...Candace Wiggins is nasty....and Candace Parker is dragging a shoulder...should be a good final on Tuesday

To the association once more....

  • The story was the huge Mavs comeback to beat Phoenix and hold down a place in the playoffs for now....Dirk with a big-time 32...but I say Phoenix collapsed more than anything (9 points in the 4th)....

  • Recap: New Orleans beats GS...bad times for the Warriors (despite Monta Ellis's 32 and 10 boards wow).....Seattle deflates Denver in 2OT behind Kevin Durant's ridiculous 37 pt, 8 board, 9 dime game....

Baseball..

  • Don't do a whole lot of standings watching this early...but checked in last night to catch up....the AL East is totally upside down (Boston and NYY at the bottom)....the Tigers are 0-6...yes, 0-6...my world series champ and favorite AL team....yikes.....Oh well, at least the Braves are winning the East...at 3-3 no less....Smoltz looked great yesterday but left early...ominous...

Other stuff....

  • Jerryd Bayless leaving early for Arizona...big blow to them...he's a legit top 10 prospect though...all the tools to be a big PG at the next level...
  • The NCAA and NBA are rumored to be announcing something soon....possibly an extended age limit....that would be huge news

Should be a big night tonight with nat'l title game and all....If it is a blowout though, not much to turn to since the NBA is off...at least I have the Braves
