Long Time, No Blog?

Sorry I have been away for awhile, not like I have a plethora of followers but it has still been WAY to long. Let me just give you an overview of what has been going on since the last post: hmmmm

1. Kemba did Kemba in the NCAA tournament. They ended up going 14-0 in the tournaments they competed in this year (Maui Invitational, Big East Tournament and NCAA tournament), not to mention they won 5 games in 5 days in the tenacious Big East tournament.

2. Butler, again made a run that ended in a runner-up and pat on the back. But what was ever more exciting was the emergence of VCU. Now being a Hokie I was mad when they made it over us, but what they did was certainly incredible. This was just like the run fellow CAA member George Mason made in 2008, making it to the final four.

3. I have to say this now BASEBALL SEASON STARTED! My favorite sport (just because it was the only one I was good at) season started and it started March 31st, and just how I wanted it too. Yankees took 2 out of 3 from the Detroit Tigers, but just the fact it started to me is a win.

4. NHL and NBA playoffs started sadly the Knicks have been eliminated *tear* and that was the end of my affiliation with the playoffs for either sport. But I still am following both 1. to see LeBron shut the critics up (I know I'm probably alone in that feeling), and 2. waiting to see the Flyers lose in the NHL playoffs. Sadly, my roommates beloved Sabres couldn't pull it off but hopefully my other most hated city can do it. Come on Bruins!!

5. Tiger made a run at a "comeback" during the Masters, although he failed the bigger headlines were Rory McIlroy's disastrous final round 80 or Charl (really you couldn't add the es?) Schwartzel shooting a 66 to polish off his charge to the top of the leader board in the final round comeback.

6. And last, and definitely least the NFL lockout has been lifted and the draft has just begun. Surprisingly, Cam Newton was selected as the first overall pick by the Carolina Panthers. I am just as  shocked as I was to see him go first. Not only do the Panthers have Jimmy Clausen (First Round draft pick from last year) but ever since the NFL combine he has become very cocky (or in his eyes confident) and lost me as a fan. Hopefully this pick doesn't workout for them! On another note I am anxiously awaiting to see where Hokies: Tyrod Taylor, Ryan Williams, Darren Evans and Roc Carmichael go in the next three days.

With the summer coming up my blog entry's will become more frequent because I will have less academic work that will hold me down from writing them!
