What a bitch. How do you even fire someone from a non paying internet blog? Meanwhile, while Chet continues to live the fantasy life by driving from the Chi to Jackson, MS I am stuck sitting here in bed at 8 AM on a Friday with no work and nothing but basketball to be watched. So I guess someone has to pick up the slack and make a post. But just to be clear, I am posting not out of fear of the chairman, but rather the good of the site.
Anyways, obviously a lot has gone on this week so I am going to highlight a few important ones.
-First, you are all welcome for that sweet call on Louisville yesterday. Looks like the only occasion left for Pitino's awful white suit is the post derby formal at the Gaeger RV. (Which I am sure will be nothing but a first class affair) RIGHT SIDE!!.
-What a start to the tourney. Four last second wins in five games, when has that ever happened? Gotta love having all the games staggered and all on tv. Great move by the people at CBS. Next they need to find a way to eliminate all announcers except Gus and Raftery.
-Have to be impressed with the effort the kids from Princeton put in yesterday. You could combine the SAT scores of the starting five at Kentucky and they would not add up to the score of any one player on Princeton. A perfect example of what college athletics should be vs how they are in reality. If only the Tigers had prevailed. Oh and by the way that last second layup for Matt Howard? Right place right time, but still...ONIONS!!!
-Hawks open the biggest two game stretch of the season with an absolute egg. How does that happen? The inconsistency of this team continues to anger many, but I want to know where has the defense gone? Was Brent Sopel really that valuable? I find that hard to beleive...they need to turn it around fast. Brutal closing schedule including three more with Big D. If Toews and D Rose are gonna sweep the MVP trophies Hawks need to string together some more wins, starting in Phoenix.
-I was watching the Bulls game with Ling Ling the BBall king last night and I heard Stacey King say something I never could have even dreamed of. Dudeman compared The Shiek to Magic Johnson. Really? It may be less ridiculous for me to get on here and compare Chairman Chet to Mark Fucking Twain. Love the shiek, but unless he contracted HIV in the past 24 hours, please hold the Magic comparisons Stacey.
-Sources say Cubs are not interested in Michael Young. What is going on with Jim Hendry? A $6-8mm dollar a year performer at the twighlight of his career getting paid $16mm a season...that sounds right up Jimmy's alley. Unless you can find a way to turn Carlos Silva's dead carcas into Young and about $15mm please stay away.
-Soriano projected to hit 7th in Quade's opening day lineup. Aside from the fact that is where he SHOULD be hitting...7th really? The eigthh highest paid player in baseball is now hitting behind your first baseman who finished last year with an average below the mendoza line. All I can really say about Soriano is...FOUR MORE YEARS. FML.
Ok kids that is all the time I have for today. I am about to embark on my journey to the Matthew Patrick Tyrrell nuptials. I could spend an entire post making inapropriate comments about this, so I am just going to leave you with this:
I always knew Tyrrell would make someone happy for the rest of their life...I just thought that person was Bracey Wright.
Terrible blog post. You're fired.
