Here's to spring practices, the spring game and August!

And...goooooooo Twister Sisters!

I spend all summer dreaming of those nice cool fall days sitting out in my lawn chair, drinking good beer, waiting for kickoff. I am getting sad already.

Atlanta Braves Baseball for me... lots of it... Not quite as good as ISU sports but I enjoy it.

Hehe, that wide eyed optimism, it is so cute, I could just cuddle you like a teddy bear.

Honestly...

Do we really need another NASCAR tiff? Some people like it. Some folks don't. Simple as that.

Is it necessary for either side to jam their opinion down the other's throat?

Ok...so you may think..."Necessary? Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but I do it anyway because it's sterile and I like the taste."

But in all reality - that's a rather extreme case. Do ya wanna be compared to the guy that drinks his own urine?

I don't think so.

Automobiles are cool, but they aren't athletes, and you can say all you want about the drivers and how they have to be in decent shape bcuz they can lose 5-10 lbs a race, but I just think someone who races with their own legs and body rather than with a car is an athlete.

I, personally, just cannot lump nascar in with basketball, football, baseball, wrestling, etc...it's just not the same kind of "sport."

This is the type of year that I wish the FIFA world cup was an annual event rather than every 4 years. I mean COME ON, it's only a month long.

Olympics next summer. That will get you over the hump until 2008 football season goes. Of course all the olympic events will be in the middle of the night next year. I am going to need to get another HD tivo to keep up with all of that next year.
