Kinda bummed that tonight’s ball game was rained out. Actually, I’m really bummed. I actually don’t have tons and tons of grad school work to do. Would’ve been a perfect night to watch some baseball. But no dice. Now I’m stuck watching ESPN highlights of hockey and pre-season NBA.
Which leads me to ask: which sport is more irrelevant these days? Since Jordan left the game, the NBA hasn’t had the same appeal for me. But The Association is actually doing quite well these days in urban areas. As for hockey…I know this is the south, but I honestly don’t know anybody who cares. Quick: name for the me the pivotal moment in last season’s hockey playoff. Go ahead. I’ll wait. I’ll bet most of you didn’t even know they played hockey last season.
So if you could only pick one of the two sports to lose, which one would it be and why?
already & not yet 
I’d pick NHL. Then again, I’d probably choose the NBA playoffs over MLB, but that is another story.
NBA – just no love there. The true excitment is in NCAA basketball, seems like the stars get to the ‘big’ stage and then become consumed with the benjamins and forget the love of the game.
Are you telling me you aren’t gonna join my NBA fantasy league? Scared I’ll put the whoopin’ on ya?
who me? why do you think my team name is the rented mules.
No, I was talking to Bybee.
Yeah I’m afraid you’ll beat me down like you have in fantasy football.Oh wait, that’s right, I’m the dominant force in fantasy football, I forgot. Fantasy NBA is for fantasy football doormats.
What about fantasy Nascar? Yes they do have it, the guy I coach with here is winning his league. I asked him if he were beating the entire 8 other people that must be into that.
I didn’t know rednecks could be nerds, too.
Chicken.
All right, I’ll beat you down in two sports.
I knew that would do it.
