I have been interning for ESPN Chattanooga for about a month now. Since www.espnchattanooga.com was recently launched Nick asked me if I would like to blog for the site. I absolutely love to blog! I started back in 2003 while in high school on the website site www.xanga.com man, what a throwback.
So enough of the boring intro (sorry, Nick) lets get down to the sports talking!
Last night the Lakers defended the Suns by the count of 124-112 to take a 2-0 lead in the NBA Western Conference finals. Man, I thought that Phoenix would at least force 7 games. But it is looking like Los Angeles close the deal in 5 games. Phoenix has to make adjustments and stop Lamar Odom. Yes I just said Lamar Odom, Khloe Kardashian's boo, the candy whore, Lamar Odom! He had 17 points, 11 rebounds, and 4 assist in 33 minutes. I hate to say it but he has been the X-factor for the Lakers. Where was this during the regular season? I guess when it comes playoff time Khloe lets him click the "candy" off of her or something. Either way Amare is going to have to start playing like...like...i dunno someone who wants to win the series! 3 and 6 rebounds in games 1 and 2 respectively is NOT going to cut it! Maybe he should ask Odom for one of his "lucky" games. Is it just me or is Kobe Bryant very good?!
There is no NBA game on tonight for some odd reason. It makes no kind of sense! What in the world am I suppose to do until Saturday? Good grief David Stern are you losing THAT much money?! Well, lets get into a sport that needs some love.
The world cup is coming! But in this neck of the woods nobody really cares (except for me.) So like it or not I am going to get into my soccer break down in 3...2...1... The opening round game USA vs. England should be amazing! USA is improving but still aren't on the level as the likes of Wayne Rooney, Steven Garrard, and Michael Owen for England. Either way it should be high scoring and very entertaining.
In other soccer news I am aroused by the idea of Barcelona getting striker David Villa! I remember playing with Barcelona in different Fifa's and just losing time and time again to Valencia (where Villa played.) Not only well Barcelona dominate La Liga with (my long lost twin) Leo Messi, and David Villa but I will never lose in Fifa ever again!
So I think that this blog should be enough for the first entry. If Nick is not happy with this then I will just give him an Eagles shirt and call it a day. Until tomorrow (or the next time I write my second one.)
