Today I’m going to cover a whole bunch of sporting news since I haven’t posted in about a week. Gary Sheffield hit his 500th homerun this week. The Florida Marlins are 11 and 1 through the first two weeks of baseball and they are killing everyone they play. This week the Yankees had there first home game in the new Yankee Stadium, and yester day they got beat 22 to 4 to the Cleveland Indians. The Indians had a 14 run second inning. When people have feelings for the Yankees you either love them or hate them, and I am more of a hater I guess you could say. I just do not like the way that they think if they buy up the suppose to greatest players and pay them crazy amounts of money and still not win or like last year even make the playoffs.

Moving on from baseball the NBA playoffs started yesterday. Starting with my favorite team, the Lakers, they have the Jazz the first round of the playoffs. To day was the first game the Lakers won 113 to 100. In what I thought was a rather easy game for them, from the start you could tell that the Jazz really never had a chance. Then today the 76ers and Magic played and this was a pretty exiting game. The Magic were up by like 15 or so and the 76ers came all the way back and won with a last second shot 100 to 98. In one of the surprising games the Bulls beat the defending champs Celtics 103 105 in over time. The Cavs killed the Pistons 84 102. Everyone is thinking that it is going to be the Cavs and Lakers in the Championship; I think that half of that is almost for sure. There is really no one in the west that can compete with the Lakers and the way they are playing right now and they think it will be the Cavs since the Celtics don’t have KG but there are some teams that I feel can beat the Cavs in a maybe a series that goes 5 or 7 games. The Rockets bet the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks knocked off the Spurs too. Atlanta just beat the Heat and Denver and New Orleans just started. Also they hockey playoffs have started but I’m not a real big hockey fan so I really don’t want to talk to blog about any hockey other than in local sporting new the Roughriders lost last night in the last 15 seconds of the game so their season is over.
