Thanks for the valiant efforts in 05 and 06 to get the Suns to the NBA Finals Mr. Sarver. But now, its clear that you are not interested in spending money to keep you best finisher (Amare Stoudemire) and your seasons top scorer (Jason Richardson). Now it seems like you are trying to dismantle the team and send them into another direction.

Under Protest
I've have made it no secret that my least favorite teams in the NBA are as follows:

Old School!
Much like Michael Jordan when he came back to cement his legacy with the Bulls, I am on my way back to college. I know I'm still not at the university level, but I am going back to it and am not going to quit until I get my degree.

A New Hope
Give it up to the Utah Utes who TOTALLY dominated Alabama. This seasons bowl games have been a little more on the disappointing side for me. I must admit though, I did not think that Utah would have any chance against a Crimson Tide team, who during the year, were ranked #1 and were in one of the tougher conferences in all of college football. But the game more than won me over. They dominated all aspects of the game and it was hard hitting from the beginning. As great as that game was, it could never wash the taste out of my mouth of having to sit through the Ohio State/Texas game. Oh, My, Gosh! How anyone could rationally pick Texas as the number one team in the nation is beyond me. Ohio pushed them around all game long. Texas' defense is soft and allowed the bucks to take the lead at half-time and overcome an 11 point deficit in the 4th quarter. Ohio should have won the game and had it not been for blown coverage on the final touchdown play then it would be a different blog today.

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
For the first time in 35 years the Cardinals are in the playoffs and it looks like they'll be 8-8 when they finally do reach the post season. While they could have made the last two games at least competitive. Minnesota I can live with, after all it was during the "you have got to be kidding me!" weekend. But in New England today they came into a buzzsaw of a blizzard. After not seeing so much as a snowflake for the past 25 years they were forced to play in Foxboro stadium in a driving snow storm. While many will state that its all apart of the advantage of living in a certain place, it is all subject to mother nature and that is all an advantage over the opposing team. Especially when the teams come from the west coast.

Dreaming of the perfect Bowl
For the 29th year in my life it is once again bowl season. It truly is the most wonderful time of the year. I haven't always been a follower of said season but once you're in you're in for life. Through my friends in high school and my Buckeye father I was introduced to the beautiful game of college football. For countless Saturday afternoons, when the leaves were finally beginning to turn colors my father and I or with my friends, we would watch the great players like Eddie George, or Jake the Snake Plummer, or Pat Tillman doing all the little things that made him great. At the end of those regular seasons you always remember, without a doubt who the best team in the nation was. Even with great teams such as these there was the championship game that decided it all.
