  • Scary - Ummmmmmmmmm, so at the half time of the NBA All-Star Game they have some "entertainment." LeeAnn Rimes was cute and her song, while very boring, wasn't bad. But right now there's this band on called "Big and Rich" and, well,...

  • LeBron in BG? - According to this article, the Cleveland Cavs will be bringing their training camp to NW Ohio. Either UT or BG...I think BG would be the better choice if they really want to get away from the hype...hope it works out....

  • I wanna be like Mike!! - Well, I saw the ending of the career of the only figure, other than my dad, that I really idolized tonight. Gotta admit, I got a little teary. I saw him in person first his rookie season at a game...
  • 20,273 in stunned silence - The Shot... I get goosebumps every single time I see or hear that. One of the defining moments in MJ's career. And Craig Ehlo's too for that matter. ;-)...
  • Farewell to Michael - I'm going to post something I once wrote about MJ on here later, and maybe some other thoughts on Michael...but for now, read these words from Bill Walton. I've never been a huge Walton fan, and sometimes think he considers...

  • Pontiac Commercials, Jimmy V, and feeling... - Ok...so the Pontiac commercials they're running during the tourney give me goosebumps every freaking time. VERY good ad campaign. Fuel for the soul, indeed!! I don't think I'd have done them any differently myself. I still haven't seen Bryce Drew...

  • Favorite day of the year!! - Well, this has always been my favorite day of the year...the first day of the NCAA tournament. This year is a little different. With the war starting last night it just takes some of the "fun" out of the day....

  • Blah - Michael Jordan played last night. :-) Hard to beleive he'll be 40 in February... I have a headache. I think Kris Tuel would be perfect for a writing job like she's considering!...
