Catch of the Day. Road House. Be nice until it is time to not be nice.
HOOK:
“Perfect.”
Barry Sanders, Jr. announced he will be transferring to Oklahoma State and will have one year of eligibility left. This is storybook, and you are not a normal person OR you are a Sooner fan IF you aren’t rooting for the kid to tear things up at his pop’s Alma Mater in his final year of college. LOVE this, and I will be pulling for him to finally break out. Going from a top ten team to a team with NO one in the top 18 rushers in the conference last year…is SMART.
LINE:
“UVA.”
I try not to write too much homer verbiage when writing this thing. Well, at least, I try not to push it on you when my teams suck or aren’t in the picture (see “Phillies”). Anyway, it is a round robin at the top in college basketball, and at least ONE writer sees what I am seeing. After a few hiccups on the road, the Cavaliers have righted the ship. Their defense looks like it was projected to look suddenly, and the balance of the lineup is really showing. He says it better than me. 
SINKER:
“Snowball.”
Old school readers know why I call him Snowball. Idiot. The Rockets either don’t know they are one position out of the playoffs or have figured out that they aren’t winning a title with physical specimen/ born loser Dwight Howard. Why is this a sinker? Because, in this league of no true centers, a team in need of size, scoring, and interior defense will pounce. It is sad because he is going to end up on a good team…and I HATE that.
THE RIVER:
“Rousey.”
I am sure Road House will bring in money and be not even close as the original (not sarcastic-it was pure cheese and fun to watch at the tail end of the 80’s). But Ronda either is doing the home Herschel Walker pushup program in solitude, or waited a LONG time to get back in the gym after the Holm loss. http://www.si.com/mma/2016/02/11/ronda-rousey-returns-gym-first-time-holly-holm-loss-photos
That’s it. Lots to come this weekend I assume. Will I blog tomorrow? That is a CLOWN question, bro. Peace.
