I thought you sports fans might enjoy this.
This morning Ben came to me with the Orgonian sports page, which had a picture of a basketball game on it. Ben then ran over to the tv and pointed back and forth between the paper and the tv.
Unfortunately there were no games on this morning, but I did have the Jesuit championship game recorded. I turned it on and that seemed to pacify him, as you can see below.
I fear that this combined with the giant basketball hoop in my living room is proof that my son has been sucked into the sports world never to be seen again (at least not during a basketball game). Seriously, you should see him and Ian Saturday mornings! It is quite the sight!!

Go Big Red!
wouldn't have guessed the country was so behind them...I voted for Northern Iowa. love those bastards
also, no one in New Mexico has the Internet. and Iowa, watch your back, Wisconsin is holding a grudge about something
in other news, the blazers blew a golden opportunity last night, playing the most anemic 4th i've seen in quite some time. if they played with half the heart NIU does...ah fuck
ps
with Lucas out for MSU, and either Tenn or Ohio State down the pike, its plausible. also, nice jump on the ol' bandwagon there, Idaho. And Maine, don't you have some galoshes to put on?

Ryan Reynolds is a douchebag
Wow, looks like my earlier post has generated some buzz. No surprise, I'm kind of a lightning rod for conversation.
Duke is unathletic because they only have one athletic guy on their team, Smith. When talking about guys like us, sure they're all athletic. When talking about division I collegiate basketball we have to hold them to a higher standard. For example, if you can't dunk you're not an athlete in the college basketball world. So scheyer, although a great shooter and pretty good ball handler, would not be considered athletic. Same for Singler. I know he can dunk, but he's 6'9" so he should be able to. If you watch Singler play, he doesn't really beat opponents with his quickness or athletic ability, but rather his basketball IQ and tenaciousness. I'm not saying it's a bad thing but they are what they are.
What a first day of the tournament. Overtime, buzzer beaters, close games, notre dame losing...what more could you ask for? Unfortunately, it was mitigated by a very bland and boring second day, although props to both cornell and gonzaga for getting me some good wins.
Finally, as if it weren't enough that ryan reynolds is married to one of the hottest women on the planet, i just found out he's gonna be the green lantern. You all probably knew that already but I would just like to say that this casting decision is like choosing rowan atkinson to be the next bond. For shame hollywood, for shame.
