Memorial Weekend Sports?

I couldn't be more dissappointed in the sports-world this weekend.

The NBA playoffs are lousy. I can't stay awake long enough to get into any of the series, and just when I think I may be pulling for a particular team, the refs blow the whistle (or don't) and ruin it for me.

I don't know what game those guys are playing, but it is nothing like the game of basketball that I grew up with. There does not seem to be any cohesive rules. It's become a free-for-all out there. I can't wait for College ball to start back up.

Then the Indy 500 was on today. Rain, and accidents. That about sums it up. If the race wasn't under caution, it was red-flagged for rain. Not much excitement there either.

The most exciting news in the sports world this weekend appears to be Mike Vick's involvement in dog fighting. "Outside the Lines" on ESPN, went way outside this morning showing actual footage of dog fights. I about lost my frosted flakes. It's not pretty.

All I can say is that Vick better have an option C available. No more football, and no more dog fighting will leave him wanting some excitement. . . .Maybe he can go to Vegas with PacMan Jones.
