Happy Easter
With Easter today I was reminded of a great South Park episode. The clip above is when Stan starts to question coloring Easter eggs. Classic clip. Enjoy everyone and have a happy Easter.

Spring Game
Here is a clip of a TD run by Carlos Brown during today's spring game for the Wovlerines
Sounded like it was a great time and about 40,000 fans or so were there with a huge supply of great recruits as well. Hopefully the weekend will lead to a few commitments and turn the event into something everyone really looks forward to.
Also from what I've gathered Tate Forcier was tearing it up and still impressing. Throwing some great balls and a few TDs the offense looked very different from last years. Even though it is a scrimmage, it shows that he is able to do what was advertised and gives me faith that RR is doing things right.

Why So Mad Miguel?

I hope those balls Miguel Cabrera keeps crushing get a nice resting stop on a mantle somewhere so they can recover from reentry. In his first 5 games this year he has managed to hit .611 with 3 HRs and 10 RBIs while helping the Tigs lick their wounds from the first series against Toronto. At this pace Cabrera could become the all time leader in HRs and has only a career average of .320!! Most power hitters are known for their all or nothing power but Cabrera breaks that mold and seems to be able to put the ball in play with every at bat.
GM of the Tigers (Dave Dombrowski) has received criticism in the past few years as the Tigers have not lived up to their billing and players such as Jurgens blossoming into a great player. Yeah that sucks, but how do you quantify that against the acquisition and long term contract of 25 YEAR OLD sure fire Hall-of-Famer who may end up with some of the greatest numbers of all time?

As long as Cabrera keeps putting this team on his back and staying in the division race, Dombroski won't have to think about those bad decision's. He can sit tight knowing that yeah he made some bad choices, but damn it how many other GMs can say they acquired a player as young and talented as Cabrera coming into his prime?
The best is yet to come Detroit.

Time for the beards

With the playoffs right around the corner and the Wings starting to shape up into playoff form, so do the playoff beards. This just tells you what type of people hockey players are. Sure the Spurs do it in the NBA but are they constantly getting stitched up for a puck to the face or rubbed all over by a sweaty glove? No, that shit is tough, I can't even think about shaving if I let my hair grow out for more than three days without a few tears shimmering down my check and these guys are getting 15 stitches and right back in the next period?
Ah but I'm not here to talk about just beards, the Red Wings are also going to make another run at Lord Stanley this year with a chance at back to back titles. For me the only other sport that is harder to go back to back is the NFL, but hockey playoffs still provide some great upsets and no team is safe. No, not even the Wings.
It is pretty easy to look at what it will take for the Red Wings to win again, goal tending and defense. These both have been the focal points of worry by fans and myself. I do however see the wings getting into the swing of things at just the right time. Even before a game the captain Nick Lidstrom said he thought this team was in better shape than at the same time last year.
With Hossa, Franzen, Zetterberg, Daytsuk, and many other offensive threats the Wings will be able to score. The outcome of the game however will largely depend on how the defense plays.
In short, with the coach we have and leaders who have gone through the beards for so many years now the Wings will have more than enough to get a consecutive title. It won't be easy and there will surely be a hot goaltender or two who give them a difficult time. Osgood will step up and show that once again the fans can talk and talk, but he will do it with his play.
Does it ever get old? And to think the Great One gave it away to the Captain

What did I do?
Here is a pretty funny video from awhile back that I just saw. This guy punches his opponent in the gut and then acts like he didn't do anything. Does anybody man up for their mistakes anymore?

UNC Wins it
It wasn't much of a game to start with. UNC just dominated from the beginning. They set a Final Four record scoring 55 points in the first half. Ty Lawson set a tournament record with 8 steals, 7 in the first half. The second half MSU never got closer then 13. UNC won 89-72 to capture their fifth National Title. With MSU having 21 turn overs its almost impossible for any team to over come that and win. Wayne Ellington took the tournament's most outstanding player trophy. It was a good ending for a UNC class that came back to win a championship. It was also a good run for MSU, they just got beaten by a better team today.

Michigan's Time
Tonight is the National Title game and Michigan is excited. Even us U of M fans are excited for the Spartans tonight, and most of us are rooting for them. We root for them because its not just about MSU, its about Michigan. The Final Four has brought a lot of excitement to the area, and win or lose for MSU tonight, it is still a win for the state of Michigan.
I have a feeling if MSU wins tonight I may get a sensation of the chills. Something I never thought I would feel from my rivals in green. So the time is now for MSU, no longer are they playing just for their fan base and alumni, they are playing for every single one of us that has been brought down even just a little in the state of Michigan. GO STATE!!!!!!!!!
