'Loffs

It is Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final Brought to You by Ceasar's Palace and a real burn barner it seems. Vegan and Wershington are tied 3-3 with 4' left in the second period.

It is Game 7 of the NBA Western Conference Finals, the winner to play Cleveland and Houston is up a big 12 pernts on Golden Pond with a minute left in the half. If Houston wins this, I think this is a real opportunity for Cleveland. And that exasperates the hell out of me. Houston is good, everybody is good in the conference finals but this generation of "Rockettes"  has not been to The Finals before and Cleve has been there four straight times. Cleve has the best player...and you know the adage. Cleve would still have the best player against GS but it would be close and The Town has got sooo many great players, four Hall of Famers, they claim, with justification: Curry, Thompson, Durant, and Green. And Golden has played the Mistakes the last three years, winning twice. They Know they can beat Cleve as many times as they want. There is No. Doubt. in them. In Houston there will be doubt. They have not played Cleve in the Finals, or anybody else in the Finals. Big psychological advantage to Cleve if H wins this and closes out GS.

Final check before I lay myself down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to burn. Houston leads Golden State 54-43 at the half. The "Capitals" and Vegans are tied 3-3 at the end of the second period. GOOO CAPITALS, BEEET VEGANS. GOOO "WARRIORS", BEEET "ROCKETTES."
