Who's your pick for Cubs 2007 MVP?
Mood:  d'oh
Topic: baseball
Trying to pick the Cubs 2007 MVP is very tough to do. Three players are contenders: Derrek Lee, Alfonso Soriano, and Aramis Ramirez. I won't consider a pitcher as there were none that won 20 games (Zambrano was close at 18, but he lost 13 games and had a 3.95 ERA). I will go with Soriano who led the team in Runs, Triples, and Home Runs. Alfonso's RBI's were lower than Lee and Ramirez but that is because he is the lead off batter. Soriano was only 8 Hits away from having the most Hits, and two Doubles away from having the most Doubles on the team. He also had 19 Stolen Bases. His .299 Batting Average was a little lower than Lee's .317 (probably due to having 130 Strike Outs) but his average is still quite good. I am basing this decision mostly on paper statistics, I watched mostly Dodger games this year! Who do you think should be MVP?

The New Orleans Saints got an old fashioned Horse Whoopin'!
Mood:  celebratory
Topic: football
After intermission and shaking off a sluggish first half, the Indianapolis Colts opened their regular season looking better than ever as they mauled a highly-respected New Orleans Saints team in the second half to register a 41-10 victory in front of a national audience Thursday night to secure their third straight win in a season opener.
The New Orleans Saints hardly knew what hit them, except that it was excruciating.
In the process, the defending World Champions put the rest of the league on notice that they shouldn't expect to see a post-Super Bowl slump from this team.

2007 STANLEY CUP FINALS
Now Playing: Anaheim Ducks vs. Ottawa Senators
Topic: hockey
The fight for the 2007 Stanley Cup begins in a few days. This year the Ottawa Senators will take on the Anaheim Ducks. Having been to several games at what we used to call "The Pond", I am a big Ducks fan. At one game, the crazy mascot they call Wild Wing came down from the ceiling on a rope and landed about three feet away from my seat. I might have been on the big screen or on television for a few seconds. The idea of the Ducks is a bit childish compared to other hockey teams, but it was created by Disney and it is my home team so what are you going to do about it. I just love hockey. Here are some cool links. >>> HONDA CENTER Formerly known as the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim. Home of the NHL's Anaheim Ducks, formerly known as the Mighty Ducks.
