Hooray for June!!!

Alright team. It has been about 2 weeks and not much has happened, but we've got some stuff to talk about, mainly my addiction to Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10, but other stuff too.

First things first!!! Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 is like the heroin of video games. I have spent most of my time that I'm not sleeping or working improving my golfer. Bethpage Black is intense!!! But I digress.

Back to the topic at hand: A few things that have caught my eye: Brandon Marshall, The Colorado Rockies, and the state of U.S. Soccer.

Let's start with soccer. The U.S. Soccer team cannot be fully described right now. Never have I seen a team in any sport, with the exception of last year's Broncos, choke in big games like this. Hell, last night they gave up a two on one breakaway on their own corner kick!! That means all the way down the pitch folks. In the past four matches they've won one, at home, against Honduras, a team they should beat handedly. The U.S. Soccer team has approximately one year to get things figured out before the World Cup in South Africa and I suggest they do that before they get eliminated in the round robin phase of another international tournament.

On to Brandon. As far as I'm concerned Brandon Marshall has gotten himself into something that he has no control over and will ultimately cost him dearly in the end. The Denver Broncos will only trade him for the equivalent of a 1st and a 3rd round pick. However, last time I checked, there are not a lot of teams looking for a player who leads all Wide Receivers in dropped passes, fumbles, and domestic assault arrests. So, Denver wont get a 1st and a 3rd for him. Leading me to believe that if Brandon Marshall does refuse to play Denver will be content to let him sit out an entire season and destroy his free agent value. So, it looks like B.M. is stuck between a rock and hard place that he caused himself. This whole thing makes you enjoy Knowshon Moreno even more. The kid comes in, does work, and lets his agent come to terms on a deal behind closed doors. Must be what you mean when you talk about "Character Guys."

Finally, your Colorado Rockies!!! My beloved Rockies are 3 games out of the wild card all of a sudden. Look, whether or not you like the decisions that D.O'Dowd has made, like me, you must admit that Jim Tracy is a great manager and that these young and upcoming players that we will trade for nothing in the next couple of years are great to watch and make this lull in the sports calendar very exciting. Folks, it's summer, it's nice out, and your team is good, go catch a Rockies game!!

Alright, I'm out. In the meantime tell yo friends about me!!!
