No sleep til Tommorow

Since it's the end of the semester, let's start with some housekeeping.

First, I hope everyone enjoyed Dave's blog last week on branding. You think that after a branding campaign that included the possibility of choosing a new mascot and logo, they would have come up with something better than the Owls. Hoot, Hoot is not that intimidating.

I don't know about everyone else, but this semester's exams are killing me. I literally just woke up from a five-hour nap, which was the first sleep I've had in in 28 hours, so this blog should be interesting.

Two paragraph's is about as long as I can wait to bask in glory that is my Chicago Bulls. Nothing makes me happier than watching Luol Deng average just under thirty points a game with D-Wade and James Posey guarding him, and Ben Gordon knocking down jumpers with an efficiency which hasn't been seen in years. Kirk Hinrich and Andres Nochioni are in the heads of the entire Heat team including head coach Pat Riley. This years Heat team looks like the old decrepit assembling of players I thought they were last year. Now I know this series is far from over, but without question, we are seeing a Heat team that is on its last leg and they are not getting any younger, so soon they will be irrelevant.

Speaking of irrelevant, the Marlins are teetering on the edge of falling to the basement of their division. Currently, the fish are below .500 and are losing 3-0 to the Braves. Normally, I like young teams, but the ownership and management's railroading of manager Joe Girardi has turned me off to this team. I do feel bad for the players like Miggy, Scott Olsen and D-train who are ridiculously talented but have to play for a team that can't pay them and fan's that won't show up.
