Wizards Go Distance, Top Nets in 4th QuarterThe Post

That’s right Brad, your Nets got taken to school by my Wizards — their lethal power is causing you sweet pain, oh sweet pain.

Actually, I doubt either of us care quite that much. Still, it was pretty cool to see the home team beat someone. This was only my third NBA game and it was the first time Les Boulez had won. It was looking bad there for a while when Vince Carter kept making alley-oops, but treys started raining down for the Wiz. They also had a lot of steals, especially in the 4th quarter to seal the game. Highlights include 30 points from G Larry Hughes and mascot G-Wiz finding Sonny Jurgenson in the stands during the kiss-cam segment.


NATS MISS OUT ON PEREZ

Had GM Jim Bowden been wiser with signings, the Nats could have gotten this guy.


Thom LoverroAt least the Nats should be funThe Wash. Times

Just having a baseball team in D.C. will make it more fun to be a Nats fan than a Yankees fan. Here, we can live without the high expectations and just enjoy the team. If you are a Yankees fan, there is no substitute for a World Series victory, anything else is a failure. I will let you know if Loverro is right at the end of the year, since the Yanks and Nats are my two teams.

More praise for this year’s recruiting class. Also, QB Anthony Morelli says he expects to start this coming season. We shall see.


Scott wants to stay, butThe Morning Call

Parkland High grad is happy at Penn State, but not if he’s redshirted.

No surprise here. My advice to Austin Scott is to work really hard and do well in school. Those two things will keep him in action.
