You think that D-1 hoops isn't full of pressure?...think again...as a donnybrook of a game was going on between the top ranked (former) Syracuse Orange (real clever) and the Duke Blue Devils...at the Duke court...where they are known for the Cameron Crazies...out of control, yet, in unison student body...a humongous home court advantage...and forget the coaches of the teams are the most decorated of all still in the game...and forget that the game is down to the last 11 seconds...and forget that the Orange is driving to the hoop to tie up the game...and forget that the ball went into the hoop...and forget that the biggest flopping team in the entire nation is Duke...but do remember this...the ref had a game ending block/charge call to make...do remember where the game is...the ref called a charge, and thus, negated the hoop...and then...mister, calm, cool, collected, Orange Coach, Jim Boeheim, went absolutely ballistic!...ah memories...runs out on the court...flailing his arms about like a hyena...they do, don't they?...and gets 2 technicals fouls and is ejected...and the game is over...this is as visual as I can get...you'll see it today...all over the land...I
must say, it's the toughest call to make in hoops...flop?...or real?...regardless of that, Coach Jim had to be booted...and so it goes...think there's no pressure?...by the way, the 1st time he had ever...I mean EVER..been ejected...

The most fun of all tourneys in the PGA is the match play event in Tucson...last year it actually snowed...what?...throw out that Tiger and Lefty aren't in it...it's still a beaut...and the guy that is impressing me...and knocking off real, like better than him, pros...none other than the now hairless (er, less hair) Puma promoter, Rickie Fowler...what?...he's a hack!...well, the kid went and changed up and got a new coach...and a new swing...it's sweet, kids...and he's moving on up...plays Jason Day (one of my favs for a super year) in the semis...

Must give you news about my son's surgery...so far, splendid...as he has the achilles spliced together and is progressing so well...a top notch doctor...and we'll see how it goes the next couple of days...this old billy goat may be going back if needed...by train...hate the drive...

SDSU lost...at the Pit...New Mexico...geez, they play great D...but the O is lacking...I really thought that they would pick up that part of their game up...it is tough to win on the road in the Mountain West...especially at the Pit...and go figure...Billy Grier's USD finally got a win against his old team...Gonzaga...I keep telling you....he coaches the heck out of that team...they just aren't gifted with a lot of talent...anyway, it broke an 11 game streak to the Zags...congrats!...

Did watch the US in their hockey...gals and guys...it's fun, isn't it!...fast paced and loads of action...no brawls....dang...so much better than soccer...but...the Americans were not victorious...

So Entertainment Weekly did a review of the Miley Cyrus Concert....which means they must have gone to it...and this is one man's opinion...gave it an "A"...what?...so who exactly would go to this?...teeny boppers?...I doubt it...guys?...maybe...she is kind of gross...gals?...???...older folks other than her parents?...none, I would imagine...eegads, go figure...

Disturbing sign out of Padre land...our mystery man...our 3B Chase Headley...came to spring training using crutches...seems that he pulled something...and is out 2 weeks...this is after he said he was feeling fit and trim and ready to make up for last year's debacle...hmmm...

Have a nice Sunday, kids...
