it's safe to say that outside of basketball i'm not the biggest sports fan but i know just enough in all other sporting avenues that i can probably keep up with your average dad conversations. the only teams i follow across all sports are those from my hometown... my real hometown, not this city... so this is a big week for my family. first, hometown boy cal ripken jr makes the hall of fame, yeah, it may have brought a slight tear to my eye. also, he made it known that he would be willing, if the time comes, to purchase the baltimore orioles, talk about hometown pride...
secondly, this weekend brings the colts/ravens playoff game in baltimore, i think it's time for a little retribution for a certain team bailing on a certain city... i still have childhood memories of the mayflower trucks being shown on the news sneaking out of the city.
did i mention that the ncaa women's basketball team is undefeated? (how can a 17-0 team be ranked under a 14-1 team, tell me) and the men's is at a very respectable 14-2. maybe it is something in the water... but we rule.
