Weekend Quick Hits

  • Duke vs. North Carolina. #1 vs. #2. Anytime this happens, it is huge, even when it is Women's College Basketball. That is precisely the match up Sunday Night in Cameron, as the Lady Devils try to build on their destruction of Tennessee this week by avenging a three loss season to the Heels last year. If anyone should ever care about Women's Hoops, this is it. Go Lady Devils.
  • The Red Sox have gone from Johnny Damon as their center fielder to Coco Crisp. Big step down. The Red Sox will not even provide the Yankees with their biggest challenge in the AL East this year. Look for that to come from the Blue Jays.
  • Wanna feel old? The Challenger disaster happened 20 years ago! I was a Freshman in college at the time. Next thing you know it will be 23 years since Philly won a pro sports title of any kind. What? Oh, never mind....
  • Sean Taylor could serve up to 46 years in prison for aggravated assault. I, for one, hope they toss him in the slammer and cost him the rest of his career. I am sick of these punks thinking they can get away with anything just because they are athlete/celebrities. Lock him up!
  • Quick Quiz: what team in the NHL has the most points? If you said the Carolina Hurricanes, you win a free trivia face off with my brother in law Ted, the hockey guru. My guess is none of you earned that prize. At least Jaromir Jagr is leading in total points and Dominik Hasek in goals against average...some things stay constant!!
  • Enjoy your Saturday....

Two words: Eric Staal. The reasons the 'Canes are what they are.

Oh, and the Sharks killed them when they played each other earlier in the season. One more reason the West trumps the East. The West's #10 team annihilates the East's #1.

I'm just sayin'.....
