Duke Vs. Davidson 2

After seeing the game today and reading this article I have to say that it is nowhere close to being right. I'm not taking anything away from what Davidson did today, but the game was nowhere near a close match. Duke out played them in every way even though the score didn't show it. Davidson is a really good ball team and I hate to say it but they will probably beat my team NC State, but they didn't really have a chance today. They do have an amazing team and an amazing player in Stephen Curry, but Duke was a much better team and the game was never close, regardless of what the score says.

Dwight Howard The Beast

Last night Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic played the Pheonix Suns. Although Dwight and the Magic lost he scored 30 points and posted 23 rebounds. In my eyes this is amazing. Considering the guy is just a few months older than me and he's making millions of dollars a year playing basketball and he can dominate like that makes me feel about worthless. It's even more impressive to me that he put up those numbers against the Suns and their guys like Staudamire. It looks like Dwight might become one of the better players in the NBA and I'm glad I get to watch him.

Duke Vs. Davidson

Tomorrow Duke plays at Davidson and I will be at the game. Duke will have a time guarding Davidson's Stephen Curry who is averaging 26 points a game. It will be a good game considering Davidson lost to Carolina by only 4 points. Duke has a good team this year and this will be a very enjoyable game.

A Sad Day For Football

This week Sean Taylor, a Washington Redskins player, was shot and killed in his own home in what many say appears to be a burglary gone wrong. It's been reported that Taylor had started to clean up his life after the birth of his daughter and his new found responsibility could be seen. It's sad that a player in the height of his career faces the darkness of his past although he's tried to escape it. Now Taylor's daughter is left without a father because of some acquaintances that he had in his past. I hope that this event can help younger athletes realize that the decisions that they make now can come back to haunt them in the future.

Battle Of The Best

This week arguably the two best tennis players ever played three matches against each other. Roger Federer won two of the three matches but Pete Sampras has been retired for 5 years. I believe it was a wonderful idea to have these two face off in what I speculate was an attempt to get more viewers. Federer has been the most dominant tennis player the past few years and Sampras won 14 Grand Slam titles during his career.

LSU Out

So it seems that I was wrong a couple weeks ago when I said that LSU and Oregon would meet for the BCS National Championship Game. Since then both teams have lost and seem to be out of the hunt for the title game. Since I seem to be wrong so much I will not guess who will be playing for the title again. However, LSU is still one of the best teams in nation considering the two times they have been beat it has been in triple overtime.

The Packers

Like many times so far this year I am once again gonna talk about Brett Favre and the Packers. They are 10-1 this season, the best start of a season in Brett Favre's career, and Brett is continuing to break record after record. Just yesterday he set a record for most consecutive completions by a Packer qb with 20 in a row. As I've said before, it makes me so happy to see Brett doing so good this season. To see him smile the whole time he is playing lets you know he is having fun and is enjoying himself.
