Saturday

I went to the theater and watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I thought it was grand. Count this as a heads up it’s sorta like Knocked Up and Superbad, and I know some people didn’t dig those films. I did, and if you did you will like this film.

Afterwards I watched Duke beat Loyola. I’m happy that Finnerty was able to score a hat trick. I liked that Duke fans cheered for him just like he was still a Dukie, even though it was a life or death game. But ya know the better team had to win. Go Blue Devils! I’m perturbed that if Duke beats Ohio State next week and Hopkins wins their next two games, Duke and Hopkins will meet without being in the Championship game. That’s so uncool. Bah ram the silly bracketologist.

TGIF

I’m tempted to say that I’ve never been happier than now for a Friday, but I know that wouldn’t be true. So I will just say that this is one of the happiest Fridays I’ve ever had.

This week was long. Thank God for that the weekend is here…if I had some beer I would drink a few and chill. But I don’t (Sometimes I really miss Mexico) so I’m going to grab some ice cream and watch Babel (Finally)

I’ve discovered that I really like the word “finally”. It’s so authoritative and definite.

The Penguins whipped the Flyers in game one, 4-2. I’m so happy. Let’s Go PENS! (Sidney Crosby’s facial hair is a joke…but I still love him. Does not being able to grow facial hair make you less of a man? If it does, I think he’s skills on the ice and the fact that he’s a professional hockey player and making millions overcompensates.)

I hate my over use of the word “alrightie” I say it way too much, and it’s one of those words that you can’t just say once during an exchange. It goes like…”I’ll be back in a little bit. “alrightie” I’m going to step out to the store, “alrightie” if my patient comes just let them know I’ll be a couple of minutes late, “alrightie”. Okay, I’m gone. “alrightie”.

I hate it!!! (I think my dad passed it on to me somehow…)

Kobe Bryant “finally” won an MVP award. I know some people are saying that the award needs to go to the best player of the year, and they are claiming Chris Paul is that guy. And you know I can’t argue with that. The dude was awesome this year, and what he’s doing in the playoffs…wow. But Kobe has been in the league for 12 years, and we all know that he is one of the best if not THE best player right now, so naturally I feel that it’s about time he gets rewarded. Because if not now, when?

Breaking heart throb news. Michael Phelps is moving back to B-More after the Olympics. Coach Bob Bowman is taking the CEO job of NBAC, so he’s following him.(I love ESPN Magazine…it’s like a stealthy way of stalking without stalking ya know) I’m kinda sad because I have a channel that’s dedicated to Big Ten sports, so every now and then I get to catch Michigan’s swimming team. Now I’m going to have even more limited viewings. Blast it.

On the brightside…Crabcakes and football!

He’s my special friend!

Ryan Reynolds is engaged to Scarlett Johansson. 

Lots of hearts are currently cracking.

Let’s Go Penguins!!

THE PENGUINS WON!!!!

I have never been on edge like I’ve been for the last 50 minutes. Pit was up 2-0 at the start of the 3rd, 2 minutes into the period and the Rangers tied the score up. Yes TIED. Oh god…Sudden Death overtime…15 minute intermission…waste of a 4 minute power play…7 minutes past….I’m thinking “Blast it. Just finish the evil Rangers off already!”…Then it happened.

Eastern Finals…the claim of “Pennsylvania’s Team” is on the line.

Life’s Precious

CBU’s President died yesterday in a car crash. I’m broken up about it and I haven’t even attended the school yet. I met him 3 weeks ago at the President’s Reception. He took a couple of minutes out of his time to talk to me about the school. And from that meeting and everything I heard from other students he was a cool Brother and pretty down to earth. It seems so weird that he could be gone just like that.

Not Harrison!

I’m not refusing to believe this story, I’m just choosing to slightly ignore it for two reasons.

1. The story that ESPN is getting from “a source close to the investigation who told Anthony Gargano of Philadelphia’s WIP Radio who is telling ESPN” is different than what the police have said in their press conference.

2. In America there’s a nice little amendment that states you’re innocent until proven guilty. I wish more people remembered that, because a lot of bad things would be prevented like say…ruining the rep of one of the most beloved Colts in the last 10 years. Or sending over 350 kids to foster homes when 74% of all foster children end up on the streets. But who’s counting?

Anyhow if this all turns out to be true, all Patriot fans are welcome to flood my comment section with cracks and quips…

Wee Words of Wisdom
“Fez, The foundation of a good relationship is three little words: I don’t know. What’re you doing? I don’t know. What’re you thinking about? I don’t know. Who’s that under you? I don’t know.” Kelso, That 70’s Show

Mixed Emotions

Thanks to the Mavs and the Suns lost tonight I’m officially on the East Coast Playoffs bandwagon now. It’s becoming more interesting by the day.

Did I mention that the Mavs and Suns are out of the playoffs? And that it’s devastating even though it was expected?

The Penguins are up 3-0 against the Rangers, and the O’s won. So while I should be overjoyed for these milestones the NBA loses are overshadowing everything.

Avery Johnson needs to go.

Yabba Dabba Doo

The Bachelor is just like every other loser guy. He just ditched Noelle, the only real and likable girl, for two ditsy girls, one blonde and the other brunette. Typical.

Things that made me happy today: I signed today. I’m an official Buccaneer. Dulcy finally posted. And I got to chat with one of my bestest guy friends ever. Yippee.
