Worst Weekend in South Florida Sports history

First I'm writing this post in a wierd mood, I'm happy I'm done with exams and all my classes, but pissed off because I wrote a blog last night that I somehow closed out words before finishing. So lets get this stated with a little houskeeping.

On Saturday April 21st the FAU Owls football team held it's annual Spring Football game. I really don't know what to make of it,over 500 people showed up which sounds nice until you realize that Alabama drew 92,000 fans and the Hurricanes (the other spring football game I covered) had over 5,000 fans. Next the team looked anemic on offence Rusty Smith threw 2 picks and Sean Clayton threw 1, the only highlight was Willie Rose and his 92 yard run. Which when comparing to the 'Canes those numbers are reall not that bad. Kyle Wright completed less that 50% of his passes should have thrown a pick and threw 1 TD, and Kirby Freeman was worse. The positive is that the defence looked amazing but take that with a grain of salt because this is a game that is condusive to good defensive performances.

I don't know about all of you but this past week was brutal, all I have to say about it is that no man should have to spend 15 hours in a walk in closet with Dave Dipino recording voice overs for a project. That pretty much sums up my exam week.

So Heat finally end their pathetic reign as NBA Champions I am so happy I will never have to hear anyone say that the Heat are champions ever again. Never mind the fact that the fans in south florida don't deserve a NBA champ this team didn't deserve to be on the same floor as the Chicago Bulls. The Heat were old and un-inspired while the Bulls were young and exciting. The Heat deserve to be the first NBA champ swept out of the first round of the playoffs. They pissed all over the regular season playing with no pride and no desire for excellence.

Dolphin's draft was a debacle and nothing makes me happier and I wanted to blog about it but instead I"m going to send you a list of text messages I got from my friend Super Dolfan Danny Lemon (name change, because no one wants to be known as a dolphins fan.)

"Shoot me"

"(in responce to Jon Beck)or worse the next Rex Grossman" he only wishes

"Do you blame me? the dolphins' just regressed another decade and F@$# THE BULLS!!"

"And with their second round pick, the Miami Dolphins select....Danny Lemon, a 6'2 190 pound QB with below average arm strength and a questionable work ethic, has little or no pocket poise hasn't won a big game and is a closet alchoholic, he does have potential out of the backfield if he was someone else and will be happy to drop his pants and wag his *&(*& and $&^%&^ to your delight. He lacks touch on the deep ball his footwork is mediocre and he has a career completion % of 7 he has thrown 3TD's and 48INT's and he can drink 18 beers and can pleasure himself four times in 2 hours, his upside is huge...Thank you Dolphnas now go kill yourself."

"I'll punch Cam (Cameron) in the face, F&^% the Phins."

"So we drafted a special teams player, a career backup QB, and a sumo wrestler, the curse of Marino continues."

"Laugh away,my friend but stay by the phone the phins are taking Jim Rutledge LB from FAU with their 3rd round pick...Congrats"

and my last text from George was Sunday around 4pm it read "I'll fight you right now"

I think that sum's up the worst weekend to be a fan of south florida sports and nothing could make me happier, the fans finally get what they deserve for being so fickle. But I do feel bad for true fans like Danny.

Oh and the sorry ass Marlins' lost 2 and were almost no hit on Sunday. HA HA HA HA
