a Wow, an 'eh', and a WHY?

So, I went 1 outta 2 in the Final Four. Just as good as the experts on the TV.

I will say that Wow, Michigan State played a fantastic game and I was impressed. They definitely used the home crowd to its advantage and played great. I was most impressed with the way they dominated the boards against UConn.

The 'eh' goes to the North Carolina/Villanova game. I know that 'Nova got it down to within 5 points, but then UNC put on the jets and it was all over. Just not that exciting of a game to watch. This is what happens when you don't care who wins or loses, you're looking for a good game. Overall, I'd say that this didn't deliver. Just my thoughts is all.

Now, the WHY? Why oh why is Sean Avery still allowed to collect a paycheck in the NHL? He hit Bruins goalie Tim Thomas in the back of the head with his stick. I'm begging the NHL to ban him for life, in order so he can live. He's going to come across the wrong guy one day and get bludgeoned on ice with a stick. I know why he did it-or at least I can guess. Gee, here's a goalie pitching a 1-0 shutout with 5 minutes to go...maybe I can rattle him. I'm stoked that TT not only went after him but also gave someone a mouthful of blocker. I'm kind of hoping that the Rangers get the #8 seed in the east, that way they have to play Boston in the 1st round. Maybe Lucic can pummel Avery in Game 1 and we never have to deal with his smirking ever again. I don't know much about hockey, but I swear if anyone did anything like that in any of the games I've played, I'd be livid. Avery has no class and no respect for the game nor its players. And if you think I'm making up what he did, here's the proof:



Oh, and the fact that the B's won this afternoon, home ice for the conference playoffs. Let the Garden rock!

Be good, and check in tomorrow and/or Monday, for the dating story you've got to read (no, it wasn't me, I just was fortunate enough to witness it).
