Do we call it the Final Four Final? Or the Terrific Two? The Doozy Duo?

Anyhoo, I’ve had a really bad year predicting, but I have had a strong feeling about Florida’s chances ever since the first weekend. I gotta think Billy D closes the deal tonight and Joakim becomes the second surprise champion in his family.

Should be a heck of a game either way.

P.S. Jimmy Rollins just ripped a double to extend his hitting streak to 37. Sweet!

Everyone is talking about Greg Oden and the phenomenal Ohio State recruiting class, but I say watch out for Chase Budinger at Arizona. A 6’7″ kid who can shoot the three, post up, or find the open man, Budinger can probably play 4 positions in college. He’s gonna be real good.

Story of the year so far:

In the mail, he received a promotional DVD that was intended to get fans excited about the new season. But instead of commentary from Ryan Howard and Chase Utley, it was an extended video of cock-fighting in Spanish.

Don’t miss the video (link under the picture).

Now there’s a competition I can get into — Pooh Sticks, or dropping a stick in the creek and seeing whose stick gets to the finish line first. Throw in a few beers, and that sure sounds like a fine afternoon.
