Here is my opinion on what has happened in the world of sports since the last time I posted. Let us begin.
Kobe and the Lakers win the title...again
As much as I HATE the Lakers I have to respect them. I hope that kobe never gets to hold another trophy though.
Al Jefferson comes to Utah
Now here is some news worth blogging about! The Jazz got a bigger better big man. This of course came after the long anticipated departure of Carlos Boozer. I'd say the Jazz took a big step forward by bringing Big Al and saying happy trails to C-Booz.2010 World Cup in South Africa
Okay, so most of you who know me have heard me call Soccer a "girl sport" but let me go on the record here and now. The 2010 world cup was so awesome that I may have had a change in opinion. The USA had a good run and I must admit that when Donovan scored the game winning goal vs. Algeria I jumped off the couch and ripped my shirt of in celebration. Even after the USA got eliminated I had a great time cheering for Germany. The Spanish team took the cup so...Ir a Espana!BYU and Utah Leave the MWC
What it all boils down to are the following two items
1. BYU was not getting the exposure or money they knew they could get elsewhere and when the MWC refused to listen to them when they asked for some liberties, BYU said it's final good byes to Craig Thompson and the rest of the MWC.
2. Utah got offered a spot in a AQ conference. Making the move means more money more exposure and a better chance at national championships. It only made sense for the yewts to jump ship.
BYU's Roller coaster Season
It all started with a 2 QB system and win vs. Washington, but after that the Cougs went in to a bit of a tail spin losing 5 of the next 6 games. After that things got better in a hurry. Riley Nelson got injured and true freshman Jake Heaps stepped his game up leading BYU to over coming a bad start to finish the season with a winning record after a bowl victory over UTEP. As soon as the season was over BYU "let some coaches go" and reloaded with a young up and coming set of coordinators. 17-16
I don't really want to write about this. But I have to. All I can say is this...U got lucky! (yep...that was a pun)BCS=BS
Auburn beat Oregon to win the so called "BCS National Championship". The BCS is BS and I will never consider the BCS champion and the National Champion. Down with the BCS!!Thats about It. I hope it wasn't too boring. I'll be posting again soon! Until next time...stay safe knuckleheads!
