It's not just the summer months that provides boring TV.

SLOW DAY

So I bring to you this question. What do people watch on TV when football season is over? I personally am not really into the NBA, College basketball is great but it takes me a few weeks to really get into it, and MLB is still a month or so away. Is it too early to start looking forward to the Masters and amen corner? Jim Nance wispering sweet nothings about the beauty of Augusta National. Perhaps I should begin to prep for the everlong Nascar season. Tony's in a new ride but racing in the cold of winter is just out of my perspective. Alas I am resigned to scour the internet looking at scouting sites to prepare for the future and national signing day. Then its the draft and spring paractice and spring games, two-a-days, and finally we can get something decent to watch on TV.

Also on a side note. If your team gets beat 100-0 it really says something about the quality of your team's play. If you beat someone 100-0 it really says something about the lack of quality in your coach. However, if you only have 35 total girls in your school why in the world do you even worry about having a team. If you are going to stress scholastic marks for small class size and high GPAs then worry about book and not basketballs. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

1/26/08

First off lets take a moment to honor Kay Yow. One of the few people who gets a lot of credit for the things she did in life that didn't always translate to the scoreboard. She was a teacher, friend, coach, and example for many people and the world needs more people such as her.

1. The superbowl is this week and it should be interesting. Im already tired of the Pittsburgh fans and and have yet to find a Cardinals fan. Not to say there are not a lot of folks rooting for their QB Kurt Warner (I myself being one as well). I root for two reasons. Kurt is a good guy and also because I am tired of Big Ben winning the Manning/Rivers/Roethlisberger debate beause of SB rings. He is good but that defense wins those games. Put him on a team with no D and he becomes servicable at best.

2. Average hockey game gives us 3-5 goals per game. The all-star game gives us 23. And they say there is no defense in the NBA.

3. ACC basketball is stacked at the top and should be a contender for a title in March but the best basketball will be played in the ACC Tourney as always when no one wants to play teams 9-12 much less 5-8. The middle is where the battle is.

The Beginning

I read other people doing this all the time but for some unknown reason I also feel like my opinion on sports matter. Therefore I intend to update this blog daily with brief and personal opinions. Those of you who know me know I try to keep up with everything but I don't exactly like everything. I will not give commentary on things I do not know or like (Sorry Hockey).
