Miss me?

I took a little break from the blog after the NCAA tournament. Since then, the baseball season is about to finish it’s first month and the NBA and NHL playoffs are in full swing. So, I’ll borrow from myself and utilize my quick blast format from my podcast in today’s blog.

So it looks like Steph Curry will miss about two weeks with his knee injury. Golden State is good enough to finish off a weak and uninspired Houston team without him. They won’t be able to finish off the likes of the better Western Conference teams, ie. San Antonio if Curry has to miss significant time against them. The Golden State coronation as repeat champs in the NBA suddenly has a new subplot.

Fans of the Washington Capitals have to be breathing a sigh of relief. A team that has history of first round chokes had probably raised big concerns after taking a 3-0 lead and then dropping two straight to the Philadelphia Flyers, you could almost see the “here we go again” scene playing out. Luckily for the Caps, they found a way to close it out and move on.
I’m glad Charlie Hoffman won the Valero Texas Open, not only because he’s one of the better unheralded players on the PGA Tour, but that his moment of chunking a ground ball drive could be looked in amusement versus costing him a tournament win.

And congrats to Brandon Turnage, he was the winner of NCAA Tournament Bracket Challenge and a $50 gift card.
