I'm beginning to find out how time-consuming Life can be, even moreso than College. I thought I had no time to do everything I wanted in College, but Life moves just as quickly. Maybe I should call it ACL (After-College Life). Or PCL (Post-College Life). Anything acronym that sounds like a knee ligament should work. Anyway, random thoughts, some of which I will try to detail in greater depth sometime this week...
The Dodgers are in the NLCS!!! For the first time since that magical year of 1988!! It's been an up-and-down year for me as a sports fan, with UCLA reaching the Final Four for the third straight year (yet going home without a ring), the Lakers reaching the Finals again (yet losing to the Celtics, an agonizing defeat that finally linked my generation of Lakers fans to previous generations) and now the Dodgers are four wins away from the World Series. Of course, in a year filled with the Pats-Giants Super Bowl, Tiger winning the U.S. Open in five days on a torn knee, Chalmers sending a great college basketball final into overtime, a Lakers/Celtics NBA Finals match, the Federer/Nadal Wimbledon final, the Rays making a postseason run, Sabathia in Milwaukee/Manny in Los Angeles, AND a Summer Olympics highlighted by Phelps winning eight Golds and the U.S. regaining its basketball superiority culminating in a C-L-A-S-S-I-C Gold Medal match that started at 2:30 in the morning on the East Coast, there is only so much we as sports fans can bitch and moan about...
Lamar Odom at point guard. Wrong offensive system, but nice thought...
Reason No. 5,423 why fantasy football sucks. DeAngelo Williams finally pulls a three-touchdown game out of his ass, just when fantasy owners least expect it. Jonathan Steward had all but wrapped up the sole starting role, but now Williams has reached back and re-gained fantasy relevance. How can fantasy owners ever predict what will happen in football?...
Carson Palmer is throwing like his sister...
Why do so many USC offensive players from the Pete Carroll Era flame out in the NFL? Palmer, Leinart, Reggie Bush, LenDale White, Mike Williams, Dwayne Jarrett. Those are six powerhouse collegiate players from the last few years, but they have been disappointing to terrible in their NFL careers...
