It makes me sad sometimes that we aren’t here too much on the weekends. This is only because there are so many games going on and so much to talk about. Granted, we are a work diversion for you guys…which beats actually working – so we do have that going for us.

Seriously though, I wished more than once that a bunch of you guys were here on Sunday at least. So many things to talk about. Saturday was okay….Tony Stewart got back in the winners circle while making a million and A-Rod hit a walk off which is nice…but it didn’t compare to Sunday.

Sunday saw the Lakers blow out the Rockets to advance to play the Nuggets (and it wasn’t even close), while the Red Wings took down Blackhawks rather easily…and then we got to take a break to recover before the second game started…

During that break we watched Zach Johnson win the Valero Texas Open though….winning the tourney for the second year in a row after watching Paul Goydos choke with bogeys on 17 and 18….

Anyways after the break we saw the Magic dispose of the doucheless Kevin Garnett-less Celtics to advance to the East Finals (and it wasn’t even close – part 2)…let’s be honest – the Lakers …expected. The Magic…not so much…Another Yankee walk off….three straight! We all get to relive it…woulda been funner to talk about as it happened.

I’m looking forward to some good sports posts again from our authoring crew here…hopefully I got one for you coming up at 11. (/tease’d). The reason I bring this up is that everytime I get on the web to find some tasty links, I keep seeing weak crap with no controversy like we have during college football and the NFL season. it makes it tough to entertain you guys on Mondays. I mean – Unless you want me to talk about Fav-Ruh…which I refuse to do that is.

Where does that leave me? Horse racing….meh. I know Sparty wants me to tell you the Yanks are heating up. The Rays…yeah they are stinking right now because of ther management maybe? Have we ever talked about tennis here?

Anyways, David Wells is always good for a bunch of shit talking. But, do you really do this to the team that made you famous? A Rod is really a sticking point for most people…and Wells does have rings so….

I found this exchange on a CavalierBlog:

Optimist,

Are you from the future? You seem to correctly predict every single playoff game the Cavs play. I can’t wrap my head around it.

What is the future like?

Tim
Cincinnati, OH

Yes, Tim. I am from the future – the far off world of 2009. And it’s a magical time that we live in. We have phones that fit in the palm of your hand, an American Hair Club for Men, and a president whose middle name is “Hussein.” We have iPods and Octomoms. No hover-cars, but it’s still pretty sweet here in the future.

But easily the best thing about this Utopian age, Tim from Cincinnati, is that we have a basketball team from Cleveland – (Cleveland!) – that’s about to break the 44-year Championship drought. And the path to the Promised Land will be led by a local kid.

His name is TheBron and he’s way better at basketball than George Mikan or Dolph Schayes – or whoever the greatest player is from the year you’re writing in from.

Anyone here think the Cavs aren’t going to The Finals? Me either….but I dont have them winning though. The Lakers are way too deep and the Nuggets are way too tough…matchup wise – for anyone in the East. Please quote me on this and tell me why I am wrong.  I am almost ready to give rings to whoever comes out of the West *cough* LAKERS *cough*

Wrapping it up without too much controversy…In fact controversy may be dissapating…..like I said…not too much to BS about. Stay tuned for some quality posts throoghout the day.
