Brad and Goliath

Every once in a while a great story comes out of the woodworks...a bloke who just seems too good to be true...like a Coach Kelly of the Ducks...and yet, is what he seems...well...there is such a fella in this smallish university in Indiana...at Butler...where his teams have repeatedly done the David and Goliath routine...huge underdogs, and beat the heavy favorite...a few years back he took the Bulldogs on a merry chase in the Big Dance...to the final game...and his personal stock went way up...could have had most any job out there...nope...he started there as a volunteer and worked his way up the ladder to be the boss...and likes where he is...WELL...he has done it again...everyone's number one, Indiana, came a prancing into hostile territory to play...Butler...and Coach Brad Stevens did it again...knocked off Goliath...just a great feel good story, unless you are a Hoosier fanatic...maybe, the best team in the land is in Indiana...

Staying in the hoops field...the Clips keep a marching on...this time unloading on the Bucks in Milwaukee...their 9th straight win...the scribes would rather write about the demise of the Lake Show, than the emergence of the spectacular Clippers...AND...SDSU beat cross town rival USD yet again...let me tell you this...the Aztecs are just starting to gel...

The bowl season has begun...and the Arizona/Nevada one was a kick...as the Pac 12 team scored twice in the last minute to shock the Wolf Pack...like 49-48, I think...

OK, I can tell you the more I see about the Connecticut Massacre, the more sad I get...it has got me to the core...and, if I hear one more NRA rep try to tell us that it's not the gun....well...you know...people, let's all band together on this...let's get the semi-automatic rifles out of the public's possession...please...
