I would have started this much sooner but I've been busy chipping wallpaper off my hallway! For those out there are considering buying a home in the future let me tell you be prepared for cleaning and fixing things you didn't know existed before. I'm thinking of opening a consulting business where you get walked through every single thing you will have to do to your home then you can decide whether to buy or not. Don't get me wrong I love my house and would do it over again but a little warning would've been nice. Someone else that should have been warned not to get a big head was Tennessee. I think just about everyone saw they were ripe for a letdown against a very good Vanderbilt team. Bruce Pearl was doing the talk show circuit like he had won the super bowl after the Memphis game. He said he was proud of how his team acted like they had been there before, he should follow suit. Funniest moment from the Memphis-Tennessee game- My wife asked me with five minutes left "Is that guy going to kill us" speaking of Dick Vitale calling the game. I would like to see a three man booth of Gus Johnson, Dickie V., and Brent Musberger. I realize you would have two play by play guys but someone would have a brain aneurysm five minutes in. I wanted to mention that the NHL trading deadline came and passed. I really like the Penguins getting Marian Hossa, and the Sabres were smart to trade Brian Campbell although I'm surprised they couldn't get more. The thing that struck me the most about the deadline was that I have fallen out of touch with the NHL. I have always been a huge hockey fan but the lack of major TV contract, and lockout have made it a "check the scores" sport for me. I didn't know who half the players traded were and I doubt many people did....sad really. Game 2 of last year's finals lost in the ratings to a rerun of Mama's Family! From Vicki Lawerence to Yao Ming. The Rockets have the worst luck if they could ever keep all of there guys healthy they would be a legitimate title contender. There current win streak was just enough to get Houston fans hyped before we realized that they are in fact cursed. There is breaking news right now that Congress is going after Clemens believing he didn't tell the truth and I want to know if there is anyone in America besides them that's going "yeah lets throw him in jail".......absurd. One last thing I wanted to mention today an icon died today in Pittsburgh Steelers announcer Myron Cope. For any of you who have ever lived in the Pennsylvania, West Virginia area you know the love that was felt for this man the creator of the terrible towel. I'll never forget those annoying Subway commercials during college. RIP. I had to keep this short but coming soon MLB preview, NFL draft thoughts, and Conference tourneys!!! My palms are starting to sweat.....hello Canada!
