Who cashed in on this win? The Florida Gators beat out the Ohio State Buckeyes 84-75 to take the crown at the NCAA tournament. Yes, this is the second time in a row that the Gators have won. Here’s what coach Billy Donovan of the Gators had to say:
“I think this team should go down as one of the best teams in college basketball history, not as the most talented, and not on style points — but because they encompassed what the word ‘team’ means.”
Yeah, that’s nice “Billy.” Can you still be called “Billy” when you’re truly an adult? They can be called one of the best teams in college basketball history because they beat out the other teams. Period. They don’t give those titles away to teams who are “just nice.” Get your head out of the clouds.
Any time I can poke a little fun at anything “Yankees” you know I’m jumping on the bandwagon. As if being the “biggest choke in sports history” wasn’t enough now it looks like A-Rod and Derek Jeter may be dunzo and the “biggest joke in sports history.” At the least there is a little bump in their relationship, but it’s nothing that Dr. Phil can’t fix. Let’s take a listen to what A-Rod had to say about his struggling relationship with Jeter:
“We were best of friends about 10, 13, 14, years ago, and we still get along well. We have a good working relationship. I cheer very hard for him. He cheers hard for me. And most importantly, we’re both trying to win a world championship. The reality is there’s been a change in the relationship over 14 years and, hopefully, we can just put it behind us. You go from sleeping over at somebody’s house five days a week, and now you don’t sleep over. It’s just not that big of a deal.”
Uh, yeah, it isn’t so much of a big deal. However, you know what is kinda a big deal? You guys used to have sleepovers 5 days a week. Between 10-14 years ago you crazy cats were like 18 years old. Isn’t that a little old to be having sleepovers? I bet you guys use to braid each others hair and tell ghost stories, and freeze the bra of the first guy who fell asleep, and tried to contact Babe Ruth via your Ouija board, etc. You girls were clearly BFF’s. Why not bury the bedazzled hatchet and try to win yourselves a World Series. At last count you haven’t won a World Series since A-Rod joined the team. That must be tough. That can be taxing on a relationship. Tough.
Anyway, Derek Jeter is tired of hearing about this supposed “tiff” and says that his relationship with A-Rod is a “non-issue.” Poor Jeter. Denial is the first step in the mourning process.
Fine. So the Colts win the Superbowl. Sure it was a big win for them, but I’m still a bit bitter that the Patriot’s never made it in. That’s right, bitter. Since it was admitted after the playoff game of the Patriot’s vs. the Colts (2 weeks ago) that there was an incorrect call against the Patriots that ended up leading to a Colts touchdown and having them win the game, which brought them to the Superbowl….enjoy the win! However, always know that in the back of your mind if that call was correct just 2 weeks ago you wouldn’t have been going to the Superbowl. Enjoy!
Colts beat out the Bears 29-17 in a complete typhoon.
Ugh, what a game. What a kick to the nuts, if you will. I’m at a loss for words on the Pats loss against the Colts last night (38-34). I’m typically not at a loss for words, but I am. I’m in mourning…and the Colts? I’m in mourning.

Basketball is my favorite sport to play, yet least favorite to watch. Maybe because the Celtics have sucked for a while (although at the time of me writing this I believe we are in first place). Regardless, if we could see more fighting like this, I’d watch more…for sure.
As if you haven’t heard yet, there was a brawl on Sat night between the Nuggets and the Knicks. I mean, any time someone can brawl it out with a New York team, I’m pleased. Anyway, Carmelo Anthony and about 10 other players were tossed out of the game for the fight. Boooo! I say keep them in and give them some type of weapon. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean a gun or knife, more like boxing gloves, or those big foam sticks that they use to use on American Gladiators (great show of yesteryear, by the way). If I could choose one weapon to bring to the b-ball court it would definitely be, hands down, the metal chain with a metal ball at the end that has spikes sticking out of it…similar to what they use to use during medieval times.
Anyway, what a great game! Sure they’ll be fined until the cows come home, but very entertaining nonetheless.
