What is going on in The World of Sports?





Wait just a gosh darn moment. Did I fall asleep and wake up in a world gone off its frick'in sports rocker? Somewhere on the green I hear there's a Tiger on the prowl again in golf. Yesterday's football free agency saw my Raiders replace wide receiver Michael Crabtree with an equally proven veteran from Green Bay named Jordy. I just checked into the NCAA March Madness tournament to see that a sixteenth seeded UMBC beat #1 seed Virginia by 20pts; a first in the tournament history. Tennis saw Venus beat younger sister Serena the other day, finally. Retired boxer Floyd "money" Mayweather wants to jump into the MMA cage and reportedly will begin training "soon." Lebron had a McNasty Dunk go off the viral charts, even though his team lost the game.

And if all this weren't crazy enough, I just watched my defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors fall to the cellar dweller Sacramento Kings, in Oakland. This after it was announced that Kevin Durant will miss two weeks with a rib injury joining Klay, Steph and a host of other Warriors already out due to injuries. 

So what should I expect next, a ground splitting Earthquake to rattle the Bay Area out of bed on Baseball's upcoming opening day? At this rate of unbelievable events altering the sports scene, anything is possible and everything suspect. Maybe Kapernick, who was seen in Houston privately working out throwing the ball, will get signed. If the Juice can get Loose, cant Kap finally come back? Come'on Man!

And to think I recently made fun of a friend who had a framed certificate of achievement on his wall from his college days at guess which school? University of Baltimore County (UMBC)......Who Knew! I had Virginia winning it all.
