The Weekend Wrap (2/11-2/13)
Things we learned:
- The Flyin’ Illini are very good. I am not ready yet to give them the National Title, but I heard one analyst relate them to the 1997 Arizona Wildcats and they have many similarities. They have 3 great guards which is what you need in tournament play, great guard play and effective forwards and a terrific bench.
- Gary Williams can coach. His team has nowhere near the talent of Duke and he swept them this year. In fact, Williams somehow convinced the Ref’s not to give Duke every call, 5 Dukies fouled out.
- Allen Iverson let you know he is still on the map with a ridiculous 60 point performance. Though his scoring had fallen off in the last few seasons, he is finally healthy again and leading the league in scoring, while being 6th in assists. Only LeBron James is also in the Top 10 in both categories and in case you haven’t noticed all the hype surrounding LeBron coming out of high school may not have been enough, that boy can play.
- That Phil Mickelson looks like he is poised for another great season. This golf season could be among the best ever; Phil is in order, Vijay & Ernie will always bring their games, and Tiger finally has the wedding behind him and his swing almost fixed.
- Finally the NHL season looks to be cancelled. In the end that sucks, but it is best for the game. Heck 20 teams say they are doing better financially by not having a season than if they had had one and had to pay the player salaries. When there is a problem of that magnitude things need to be shut down and the entire league needs to be restructured. Hockey is a great game and so much fun to watch, and I know the loyal readers of this site enjoy Stanley Cup playoff hockey still to this day (Andrew, Keith, Josh, Dan). We all grew up watching that fun game in the early 90’s and I wish it could get back to that.
- Karl Malone officially hung it up, and says no chance of a comeback; I love and respect that so much.
Things I disliked:
- Yes it is true that I am a connoiseur of the female chest region. I was recently turned on to a website called www.flashyourrack.com and I of course check it out daily. What disturbs me is how many women pay to have their breasts augmented in a positive or enhanced fashion and how horrible they look. These women spend thousands of dollars on these Boob jobs and they look like Dr. Nick performed them. The nipples pointing the wrong way, the two breasts different sizes, the total unnatural look to most of them.
- Oh crap, the stupid Grammy’s were on last night. Honestly, I have something wrong with me; I hate all these stupid award shows for musical acts especially because everybody wins. There is a category for everybody; it is really not that hard to win a Grammy. I briefly heard a list of winners from last nights show on TV this morning and they included: U2, Usher, Ray Charles, Loretta Lynn, John Mayer, Maroon 5, Brian Wilson, Britney Spears, Alicia Keys, Green Day, Norah Jones, Kanye West, Bruce Springsteen, Prince, and Jay-Z (who retired?). That is just a sampling of winners, from the over 100 categories. That is just insane!!!! (This rant in no way represents my views on the Academy Awards which I actually like, and you need to have talent to win)
- You know what set me off, was stupid Alicia Keys ruining Georgia on My Mind, which was being done spectacularly by Jamie Foxx. But again people insist on proving to me that Alicia Keys can play the piano (http://krisdeblasioswisdom.blogspot.com/2004/06/daily-nooner_22.html#comments) she sucks and her whining crying voice ruined the great tribute that Mr. Foxx was performing.
Things I liked:
- Rick Majerus is coming to Columbia Sunday in preparation for the Gamecocks and the Kentucky Wildcats on ESPN Tuesday at 9 (be sure to tune in). He is the coolest coach of all time, plus he is fat and loves to eat. I am going to get a chance to hang out with him which will easily be the coolest thing in the world. Hopefully he asks me where a good strip club is at, and we can go get lap dances together, that would rule.
- Jose Canseco. That guy rules, I absolutely love the fact that he is blowing up all these baseball losers. Hey assholes, we all know you did steroids, and Jose is man enough to call all you bitches out. I heard Roger Cossack (Josh spelling?) on ESPN radio this morning (he is their legal analyst) say that Mark McGwire and Jason Giambi have every right and reasonable chance to win a case against Jose Canseco in court for liable and slander against their character. But what are the chances of either of those ‘roided up freaks suing? None!!!
DID YOU KNOW OF THE WEEK?
LeBron James, 20 years old and in his second NBA season, has improved in all of the following statistical categories: Points, Rebounds, Assists, Blocks, Steals, Turnovers, FG%, 3-pt % and already has 17 double-doubles as compared to 12 all of last season. The most dramatic improvement has come in shooting percentages. Last year he shot 41% from the field, this year 49% and last season 29% from 3 this season 33%.
