I'm Bad!

Sorry folks, I have been awful at keeping the blog updated this season! I'm not even going to drop a lame excuse...I just haven't performed! I almost forgot to renew the damn site too, I'm slippin'. Thanks to everyone who has been posting comments though and what I while try to do is post a weekly thread for people to leave comments on if they would like and I will update when I get a chance.

Here are some thoughts about each of the teams so far.

EC: same ol, same ol for the Golds. Losing Shea and Beyer hurt, but Fofana has stepped up nicely. They will win a few games they shouldn't and lose a few they shouldn't and battle for that last spot in the conference tourney.

Lax: Been my darkhorse all season, they would be the team I would throw a 100 spot down on in Vegas because they had great odds at the beginning of the season. Mane and Stratton are outstanding and Merklein and Kinkaid have stepped it up. They will be tough to beat all season long.

DJ Marsh: Started off better than I thought they would, but then they lose at home to RF. Not sure what to think of them this season. Can Brian Washington step up and be the big man the desperately need?

the 'Ville: New coach, Skemp's rockin the D League, and yet the 'Ville is right in the mix. Solid guards and Wall looks like he is a force inside. They'll be near the top all year. PVegas, where you at? Did they give you a diploma?

RF: Improved but still lacking the intangibles it takes to win the close ones. In all honesty, they should have beat St Thomas, EC, and Sup, but they didn't and that seems to be the story with RF so far. So close yet so far away. They will upset a top team this year!

StP: Surprised they lost to WW, but they are so damn good, once again. Their depth is sick. It almost hurts them sort of like Texas' depth hurts them according to Dickie V. Dickie V is the most predictable color guy in the biz, without trying I predicted what he had to say next at least 10 times during the Texas v NC game yesterday. Not braggin of course because it is so damn easy.

Stout: I had a dream about watching Stout play, last night. It would be funny if I were kidding, but I'm not, which probably leaves me in the pathetic category. I haven't seen the Devils yet, but by looking at box scores they seem a bit improved. They won't make the conference tourney though.

Sup: Jake Smith, nuff said! Kid can play. If Marcus Helland comes back healthy and Hill and Culy keep playing at a high level we may see these kids near the top when all is said and done.

WW: Congrats to the football team for beating Mt Union in the title game yesterday, I watched it on ESPN360, love that website. I'm already looking forward for Mt Union v WW 6, be there brotha. Dustin Mitchell=beast! I've been waiting for him to show his stuff, but with Vernon around he never had the venue, but now that Vernon's gone he has not disappointed. No rebuilding for the Warhawks, hell they don't even reload, they just keep shooting away. It will come down to them and Point for the title...big surprise!

Have a great holiday everyone!
