LPGA:
Michelle Wie finishes second in her first event as a member of the LPGA after earning her way on through Q-School. She had a three shot lead on the back nine and couldn’t hold off a charging Angela Stanford. While most would say this is the latest in a long line of failures for Wie I see it as a positive. While getting bad advice while coming up and ruffling a lot of feathers along the way she needs to get in position to win to learn how and fulfill all that promise. She has one of the best swings in golf for a man or woman and will be a force for years to come. I have no problem with her teeing it up with the men as long as she earns her way in.
MLB:
A Rod, A Rod, A Rod. Just had enough of it already and it has just begun. The last thing hopefully I will say on this is how can MLB just leave him out there like a sacrificial lamb while 103 guilty people sit there unscathed. If I was the Yankees I would want them made public so the heat would die down on A Rod and other teams fans couldn’t boo as loud while guys on their team cheated as well.
Who says you can’t go home again. Ken Griffey Jr. has agreed to go back and play for the Mariners. I loved watching that swing and it will take my back watching him in that uniform again. Too bad the skill level isn’t the same.
NBA:
Tracy McGrady shuts it down. After watching him not be able to dunk the ball a few games ago it was time to quit trying to push it and take care of you. At least he doesn’t have to go to a bad Nets team that was rumored before the announcement. I think he should have told the team before the rest of the world, guess I am old fashioned.
Sometimes I hate the salary cap. As a fan I can’t stand when your team has to get rid of someone not because they can’t help your team but because they make too much. Tyson Chandler was the latest victim of this. The Hornets had to dump him and really hurt their chances of winning the title. Now they weren’t the favorite but they had a punchers chance now that chance is even smaller.
NFL:
Interesting use of the franchise tag by the Chargers. You have LT and you use your tag on Sproles. Now I know that they couldn’t lose Sproles because of the uncertainty of the LT situation but didn’t they just dig the same hole they are trying to get out of? They want to pay LT less, now you go and guarantee Sproles a top five salary and he isn’t even a full time back.
