What a day!

I just got done doing more yard work after a busy and crazy morning at a trade show for my kids from school. It was great but just another measure as to why are kids are so far behind the suburban kids. That is an entirely different discussion.


Huge game 2 tonight for the NHL Stanley Cup finals. I expect Boston to be more physical, especially towards the Sedins. I think it is almost worth it to take a penalty early trying to rough on the up. Nothing crazy like a major but a really hard rough might be worth it.  They also need to fire the puck, from everywhere.  Get it to the net and crowd the crease! Here we go..............I am saying Boston 3 - Vancouver 1.

I was recently entered into a Brady vs. Manning debate I am going to bring up here soon. The choice is obvious to me.

Yard Work and Stanley Cup!

I'll start by saying this.......yard work sucks! You work hard and sacrifice to get the bigger house and it just means spending more time than you did before making it look nice. It never ends and it is crazy how much your view on it changes from when you were a kid. I would cut off a finger if it meant getting out of yard work to play football with the Benson crew..............never seemed to work and I'm glad it didn't. I understand my fathers point of view now.

Low scoring (zero scoring so far) but the game is really exciting for the start of the Stanley Cup.  I am OK with both teams winning because I respect them both but I think the Canucks will eventually pull it out - six games but I can see it going seven.  Bostons best chance is to smack the Sedin's around a little. I think it gets them off their game a little.

I'll leave you all with a little image to get you into the hockey mood!

NBA Finals

Well.....they start tonight and I think this should be a great series.  Not the ultimate NBA fan but do follow and watch enough to have a solid feel. I do know Lebron is best player in the NBA and if you think otherwise you are an idiot. You don't have to cheer for him, like or want him to win...but he is a beast on the court. He can dominate the game in so many ways. I think he at times makes poor shot choices and should drive to the hoop more, but he looks like he is playing vs. JV players at times.

I would love Kidd and Dirk to get the title as well so I am kind of in a good spot. With that said and watching the game now I will take the Heat in 6. I just think they are too good and this title will validate "The Decision" like it or not.  Many people, including myself hate the way he went about that and I think there was more to it we don't know about. But if they win, he will get exactly what he changed teams for and that makes it the right choice for Lebron.  All his haters should be MAVS fan big time or else Lebron's choice was the correct choice.
