- 1st, I will clearly have an NBA finals preview up.... It's coming...don't panic...in the meantime...follow me on twitter @browismyhero for info on that and more....
- Jameer Nelson to play in the finals....well this will clearly affect things....he is suddenly the great unknown...he was playing at an all-star level prior to injury but playing this quickly would be WAY ahead of schedule and no one thinks he can be near 100%....at the same time...is he still an upgrade from Anthony Johnson? I say yes...
- The Memphis/Derrick Rose cheating scandal is coming to a head....Memphis says they find nothing wrong...Calipari is out of there...the NCAA is going to have to handle it...
- The Braves are 25-25....is this what I had in mind after 50 games? No...but at the same time there are bright spots...the starting pitching (outside of the dreadful 5th spot) has been very, very good...Jurrjens has emerged as a legit top-20 pitcher...Lowe has been steady....Vazquez shows glimpes and Kawakami has been competent....keep in mind...Hanson and Hudson are on the way and this could honestly be the best rotation in the MLB if they get there and get it going...
- Manny isn't making the all-star game....the big fuss about this is unnecessary b/c a vast majority of his huge voting turnout was pre-suspension...the backlash alone won't allow him to get voted in...but the voting public is STILL dumb enough where he'll be in the top 10....
- Brace yourselves...NHL Mention.... It's cup finals time so I'll throw it in...especially when the Red Wings (my dad's favorite hockey team) are up 2-0.... this has been big for the league's mini-resurgence to have some big names (and a great Caps/Pens series earlier) throughout... maybe they'll be relevant....but probably not while Gary Bettman is alive....
More later...
