This day in sports history...In 1896 the first modern Olympic Games took place in Athens, Greece.
Hello friends,
- April is here and sports fans know what that means. Baseball is back and I couldn't be happier. The Jays are off to a quick start and I am hoping that this trend continues. I thoroughly believe that this team can be competeing come September. Sure they are in a tough division but I am not as high on Boston this year as most people seem to be. They made some great acquisitions in the field but I don't feel that thier pitching is as strong as the public believes. Thier top three pitchers are solid but Josh Beckett is a question mark and you never know what type of season Matsuzaka will have. I see Jon Lester having a great year but he and Buchholz and Lackey cant carry the team. The Yankees have not done much to improve themselves surprisingly while the Rays have resorted to signing aging players such as Johnny Damon and Manny Ramierez to fill holes. Baltimore has made some improvements so we will see what happens. Go Jays!
- Congratulations to Kemba Walker and the UCONN Huskies on their NCAA Men's Basketball Championship.
- Either Tavis' skills at NHL 11 are diminishing or mine are getting better.
- Good luck to everyone in this last week of school!
Take care,
Nate
