It is Elimination Weekend in some world sports. Exorable Liverpool went splat in the Champions League embarrassing England and giving cause for anti-Livers like moi to change our underwear a couple of times since the glorious result came in.
On the Left Coast of the colonies the Houston "Rockettes" are laying some wood on Golden State. They lead at the half by 10 and led in the 1Q by 17.
And tomorrow we have a double elimination. Will the Beans break wind and cause the Sword to go limp or will the Sword the slice and dice the Beans. The adage that playoff series are won by the team with the best player is firmly on the cutting edge. Predictions here: a cheater's boldness in the Houston-GS series, the Rockets will rise and end Golden State's spectacular run. And in Beans, I'm going with the adage. The Beanies are too young, too inexperienced, and are missing their two best players. LBJ does not want to have another Humiliation in Boston. One caveat: LeBron is bushed, has only one full day rest between his 46 in 46 supernova Friday and manana. Does he have enough left? Yes, barely. Cleveland wins the game and the series. It will be Cleveland-Houston in the Finals and with Chris Paul undoubtedly back the "Rockets" red glare will turn the wine and gold into blood and pus.
