the mad sports man

good for a laugh here's one for a laugh. this is from the confused philosopher skit on the royal canadian air farce. "someone has to finish last in medical school. how do you know is not your doctor?" worth a laugh eh?

one confused computer this is one for the pages of wierd and confused. from the time i moved into my new place, my computer went wierd. i went from a cable hook-up to a phone hook-up (without the disruption of the pfone line). when i tried to surf the net or talk with katie on msn messenger, it would get stupid. (couldn't find server while surfing or messenger shutting down on its own). this was happening since thursday - at least till today. today i havent had any problems at all. it mysteriosly decided to behave itself and im puzzled by it. ( i think it was the threat of using a cable hookup). anyways. an interesting story

subway fresh 500 kurt busch won the first saturday night race of the season in dominating fashion, leading the most laps. i think he led 250 of 312 laps tonite. jimmie johnson still leads the points, while kurt busch moves into 2nd with the win. next race is the aaron's 499 in talladega on may 1.

moved in..... finally i am now officially moved into my new place. i'm starting to like it. got all my furniture in yesterday - except the hide-a-bed. that came in today. pics will be up soon - at least when i get a digital camera. soon enough. i'm a little sore. not as much as yesterday. i hope it goes well.

samsug radio shack 500 greg biffle won his 2nd race of the season in texas today. i missed this race because of human error of my own. i remember to get the race to tape THIS MORNING instead of doing it last night and had everything set up except to put the timer on. jimmie johnson still leads the points. next race in phoenix and the subway fresh 500 on saturday night. oh boy saturday night racing.

mobile box happening man have i been going today. started hauling some of the boxes to my new place after work today. i had a two-wheeler to help me out, and boy did it help. made 3 trips moving 13 boxes. 10 blocks there and 10 blocks back and now i am feeling it. its okay, its 13 less boxes to move later. plus laundry and sports stats on top of that. at least i get to settle down a bit.

baseball fun. yikes. geez, i feel like i've turned back the clock 12 years. the blue jays are winning - FINALLY (i hope this lasts all season). i'm really enjoying this. the jays are 6-2 this year AND leading the a.l. east. (wow i cant remember the last time that happened. short memory). i know it's only 8 games, but boy this is fun. 154 games to go. we'll see how this goes. one can only dream.

advanced auto parts 500 jeff gordon won the advanced auto parts 500 after coming back from 3 laps down earlier in the race. great job and great win - his 6th win in martinsville. next race in texas and the samsung radio shack 500.

a cool thing on mlb.com i discovered something new on mlb.com this season. it's called game mini. what you do is: 1. obviously go to mlb.com. 2. find a game in progress and click on the little diamond on it. when you click on the diamond the game in progress should come up. kinda like a virtual electronic view of the field. 3. on the top left side should say "game mine." what that does is shrinks the game to where you can still see what you're doing and still keep an eye on the game. give it a shot.

the move hype man have i ever packed a lot of boxes. its getting to the point where i have nowhere to put the boxes thats outside my room. i still have to keep walkspace to and from the bathroom and for my nerfball space. i can move my boxes to the new place once the rug is put in. need to get motoring quick. im excited to move. im almost bouncing off the walls. yikes, now thats a scary sight (and thought).

north carolina champions the north carolina tar heels are the 2005 ncaa champions. they defeated illinois 75-70. congrats to them.

full slate of afternoon baseball 10 afternooners to start the first full day of baseball. opening day was last night when the yankees beat the red sox 9-2. the chicago cubs and the arizona diamondbacks are still playing. the cubs lead 16-5 in the bottom of the 8th. all other games on www.mlb.com .

food city 500 this was some race at bristol. 14 cautions (i think, not sure though). kevin harvick won this wild one on the "fastest half-miler" in nascar. lots of cars hitting each other causing most of the cautions. one caution involved 14 cars, while another involved 7. the scariest one was when jimmie johnson bumped jeff burton and spinning him, sending burton into the inside wall. after he hit the wall, jeff burton slid back up the track. at the same time kurt busch was coming and wasnt expecting burton to slide back up. before they knew it, front to front meeting. they came out okay. good thing for the HANS device attached to the helmets and tethered to the seats. the HANS device its to keep the Head And Neck restrained incase of a head to head crash. anyways, theres bristol for ya. next week, another short track race. the advance auto parts 500 in martinsville.

illinois vs north carolina it will be illinois vs north carolina in the ncaa championship game. illinois beat louisville 72-57. north carolina just beat michigan state 87-71. the final is monday night. gonna be a good one

beginning of april its the start of april, and i can smell the baseball season already. season starts on sunday when the boston red sox visit the new york yankees. first time they meet (duh) since the a.l.c.s. when boston came back to beat the yankees 4 games to 3. the yankees make a return visit to boston with a threee game series starting april 11. that night is when the red sox get their world series rings and raise the world series banner. yay for baseball.
