Good Morning....The Prima Donna (Woods) holds a press conference yesterday so he can show off his booted foot and look for some sympathy....He is just setting it up so when he fails at the US Open he can blame his injuries....Count me as one who has doubts as to whether he'll ever win a major again....The Golden Bear rules....Speaking of golf, ya gotta catch the winning goal in the Canucks-Sharks game last night....In the second overtime a Vancouver defenseman tried to throw the puck deep in the San Jose zone but the puck hit the glass and bounced backwards (just like some of my golf shots that hit trees)....Almost everyone, including the goalie, looked for the puck behind the net except for Kevin Bieksa who realized the puck was going backwards towards the blue line and slapped it behind the unsuspecting Shark goalie....What a way to lose the Conference finals.
D-Wade doesn't have his best game but with The King leading the way the Heat slap the Bulls in overtime to take a commanding 3-1 lead in their series....James, Wade and Bosh one game away from the NBA finals....I've just become a big Dallas Maverick fan....Kobe Bryant is "surprised" that Mike Brown will be named the next Laker coach....Guess he didn't get the memo.
Yankees rally in the ninth with a couple of seeing eye singles and sloppy right field play to defeat the Jays....Carlos Quentin jacks three big flys in Arlington as the White Sox defeat Texas despite a 3 hour Tornado delay....Strange moments in the delay as the fans were removed from the stands and located to concourses, dugouts and service corridors as hail flooded the field and funnel clouds danced all over Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Arkansas....Watched yesterday live as twisters touched down in Oklahoma....Storm chasers must be short some change upstairs as I watched one car chasing the storms drive into one as debris flew across the road and telephone poles shimmied along the highway....One pole actually flew over the car....Wizard of Oz like, man....scary.
Three home run games are becoming commonplace in the major leagues with five in the last two weeks....And they say that pitching is dominating hitting....Whats up with Albert Pujols?....off year, contract year....Look for a big second half....With Adrian Gonzalez tearing up the American League as advertised, Padre fans are clamoring for Anthony Rizzo (one of the three top prospects the Red Sox gave up) to be promoted....Rizzo is rippin' it for AAA Tuscon....So far San Diego has resisted but its only a matter of time before Rizzo, Casey Kelly and Raymond Fuentes pay dividends.
Did you catch the David Ortiz skit on MLB Fan Cave?....funny....Ortiz roams the streets of New York looking for love from Yankee fans as only Big Papi can do (http://www.mlbfancave.com/). Mike O'Hara, who is watching all MLB games from the cave this season after winning a contest, gets a supporting nomination....What about Lenny Dykstra trying to break Dwight Gooden out of Celebrity Rehab....Yes, that Lenny Dykstra who was just bailed out by Charlie Sheen....Nails showed up at Celeb Rehab (due to air in the fall or winter of 2011) with two big dudes and tried to talk the Doctor out of his appearance....Gooden shooed him away....Hope its on tape.....Kirk Gibson (Diamondback manager) taking batting practice with his team the other day trips and falls over first base, causing three of his players to immediately run into the clubhouse to grab some tape and draw a body outline past first base with a "23" in the middle....good stuff.
Shaq, one more year?....talk to ya....
