First things first. Tiger Woods has announced that his 2010 PGA season will begin at "The Masters". I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. I hope Tiger lost all of his golfing ability and resorts to playing in Mini-Golf Putt-Putt tournaments from now on.
The Notre Dame men's basketball team took an 18 hour bus ride back to South Bend after losing in the Big East Tournament. They did this because the horrible wind and rain this past weekend made flying out of NYC very difficult. Yet, after that long of a bus ride with the only movie available to watch being Nicolas Cage's "Knowing"... I think the Fighting Irish would rather have just walked the entire way.
A fake Georgian broadcast (the country, not the US state), which claimed that Russia was invading, led to panic and hysteria throughout the country. That is 2 weeks too early for April Fools Day!
The University of Rhode Island missed the damn NCAA Tournament again! Even though the NIT means nothing, I guess I'll go watch URI if they make it to the Final Four at Madison Square Garden. Providence College and URI haven't done anything worthy in the NCAA Tournament in like 10 years! I guess I'll just keep hope that the Ivy League's Brown University will eventually represent RI in March Madness.
Great news! K-Fed is now beginning to open up about life after Britney. This is the moment I've been waiting for... for such a long time. I almost can't sleep at night thinking about all of the interesting and life-shattering details.
The Yankees' "God Bless America" singer, who left NY after making anti-semitic remarks, has been seen wearing a Red Sox jersey. It took him awhile, but at least he came to his senses.
David Beckham will miss the World Cup due to an injured Achilles. All those ladies in South Africa aren't going to be happy about this news. Nobody quite "bends it" like Beckham.
LT will bring his "Electric Glide" and Over-30 running back body to the J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS! The Pats vs. Jets games next year just got even more interesting!
Okay lets sum up what the Cleveland Browns have done recently. They sent QB Brady Quinn to the Broncos and released QB Derek Anderson. The Browns then signed QBs Jake Delhomme and Seneca Wallace. A lot of things happened there in the QB department, but I'm not sure the Browns got any better. I think the city of Cleveland is going to have to wait a few more years before the Browns are relevant again.
The Denver Broncos new QB Brady Quinn says that he wants to start for the team... yea and I want to be a movie star. You have to prove that you're worthy first my friend... or just get lucky.
The man who stalked ESPN reporter Erin Andrews received 2.5 years behind bars. I wonder if he'll be drilling any peep holes in prison? I'm sure his neighbors won't look quite like Erin Andrews did.
The Illinois men's basketball team is seeded # 1 in the NIT yet can't host a first-round game because Cirque du Soleil is performing in the arena this week. That certainly is a kick to the nuts of everyone involved with the basketball program and its' fans. That seems like it would be something that would happen to Emerson College pre-2007 (when we didn't even have our own gym yet).
After a tremendous 183-year run, the annual Whitsun cheese-rolling event in England has been canceled for safety reasons. This is a national tragedy indeed. The English greatly look forward to dangerously running down a steep hill while chasing after a round rolling block of cheese every year. I guess the country's value of the game of soccer just got raised even higher.
Mike Tyson will apparently have his own reality show on the Animal Planet. I don't care what it's about (although I heard it has to do with racing pigeons), but I'll give it a chance because Tyson is Must-See-TV!
Two first-round NCAA Tournament games I can't wait to see are # 1 Syracuse vs. # 16 Vermont... and # 5 Temple vs. # 12 Cornell. Why you ask? Well no 16-seed has ever beaten a 1-seed, yet Vermont beat Syracuse in the NCAA Tournament like 5 years ago when the match-up was #14 vs. # 3. Can the same type of thing happen again this year with the stakes even higher, or will Syracuse get some revenge against those damn Catamounts?!
You always have to route for the Ivy League because they never really get any college basketball love. But this year's Cornell team is capable of actually making a deep tourney run. They have a solid team who almost beat Kansas at Kansas earlier in the season. Yet a solid Temple team led by the amazing Fernandez kid will have something to say about that. This game will feature great fundamentals and some sweet passes.
My picks.... Syracuse keeps the 16-seed losing streak alive as they man handle Vermont and Cornell uses their brains (imagine that) to edge Temple in a close one. Let the games begin!
