Lacrosse, Primaries, anything else?

Well, it's the Monday after the Face-off classic that was up in B-more. The two teams that I wanted to win did so (I always love it when Syracuse loses, can't stand that team). UVA beat the Orange in overtime, 14-13 (Go Wahooos!) and Hopkins crushed Princeton 14-9 (Princeton's coach, Bill Tierney is a number one prick, met him a few years ago at Maryland for the final four and he was such an a-hole to me because I asked him a question about weak-side D, shyte). I got to see Cornell pull off a huge overtime win against Navy. They were down by 3 with less than 2 to play and they cranked out four straight face-offs and beat the Academy, Streibel accounting for half of the effort there in the last few mins. Sorry, for those of you who aren't into lacrosse or have just a smattering of knowledge about it I apologize. I love the sport and tend to forget that others just don't know the sport. Anyways, things are looking good for a great season (Hopkins just might win it all again, Petro has that team firing on all cylinders) and I hope that teams like Albany, Loyola, or Bucknell can break through and have a great season and make the tournament. Each year there's a surprise team in the Final Four it seems, maybe one can make that leap to winning it all, just maybe.

Has anyone else been a little tired of the Presidential coverage overload? I mean, wow, every burp or fart is covered and the press are blanketing Obama or Clinton like a wet t-shirt. Can't say I'll vote for Obama, but who knows? No way in HELL do I vote for CANKLES, no way.

College Basketball's tournament begins this month and to be perfectly honest, I'm really uninterested. That's a first, I'm just tired of watching b-ball. I am, however, very excited about catching some college hockey, that's fer sure. I miss college hockey down here in DC, there's nothing even remotely close to go and see a game. Maybe Penn State which is around 5 hours from where I live (whooopeee!!!).

Well, the ides of March are in 12 days, make sure you're extra careful and have a good one until next time.
