One Term Proposition

“ I will be held accountable. If I don’t have this done in 3 years, then there’s going to be a one term proposition.”

“ This is Obama’s economy, that’s fine. Give it to me.” – B. Hussain Obama

One term, you want it – you got it.

Kentucky 2012 National Champions

Kentucky Wildcats Basketball program at 38-2 are the 2012 College National Champions after defeating Kansas 67 to 59 in New Orleans last night.

While the Jayhawks big man totally shut down and exposed Anthony Davis offensively, the UK MVP shined on defense in blocking shots, steals, rebounds and overall hustle.

The Kentucky guards lit it up from outside. Offense gets the glory. Defense wins the game.

Kentucky was in control most of the way but Kansas mounted a late rally. The lead would have been cut to 3 but a fatal mistake bunny hop, double dribble negated a 3 pointer that swished through nothing but net.

It may be One & Done for UK though as all 5 of Kentucky’s starters, 2 freshmen and 3 sophomores, could be selected in the early rounds of the NBA draft in June.

Time will tell. Congratulations Kentucky. Go Blue.

#15 Lehigh Beats #2 Duke

#15 Lehigh University beat #2 Duke in one of the greatest upsets in NCAA March Madness history especially since the game was played in Greensboro, North Carolina.

The coach of Lehigh said it best: “ The only thing that really mattered is we had confidence and belief in ourselves.” – Brett Reed

CJ McCollum, the Patriot League player of the year, was unstoppable driving the lane at will. McCollum scored 30 points and the Mountain Hawks of Lehigh University stunned the Duke Blue Devils.

Lehigh came in confident, playing like they had nothing to lose. The pressure was on Duke and it showed.

“ They had the best player on the court tonight, McCollum. He’s really one of the outstanding players in the country and you could see why tonight.

I’ve been in this game for 37 years and it takes you to incredible highs. It also takes you to incredible lows. Tonight’s one of those lows.” – Mike Krzyzewski

Injuries and NY Giants do in Packers

One and Done for the Green Bay Packers. It is the New York  Giants who advance to the NFC Championship game at the SF 49ers.

The NY Giants made the 15-1 Packers look very average.

If you don’t believe a healthy offensive line or key injuries are important, ask the Pittsburgh Steelers.

All praise and glory to the “all-in” winning G-men. Eli Manning led the only visiting team to win in this NFL playoffs.

It takes a lot to get coach Tom Coughlin to smile. On Sunday the NY Giants did it.
