Historic election night in America today. A true watershed moment in history as America welcomes it's first black president-elect. Nobody thought this day was ever going to come. Now it's here and it's real and this is a proud day indeed for America. It tells anybody and everybody that this is still the land of opportunity and in the words of a delirious Kevin Garnett after his championship -"anything is possible!!". I can't imagine how much this means to a new generation of minorities in this country. They can now aspire to be anything they want to be including the President of America. Congrats to Obama and his brilliant campaign for bringing this change and hope and we expect many more changes.
Speaking of hope, the Suns are still hoping to be an elite team. They are 3-1 and today they crushed the Nets. But then again thats neither here or not there. The Spurs are surprisingly 0-3. They lost to the Mavs tonight. A tough schedule so far, but still it's odd to see the Spurs 0-3. Of course they will start their rodeo trip eventually and thats probably when they'll start winning and go on some sort of a run. They'll be fine, especially when Ginobli comes back. Until then, I'll just enjoy the increased scoring I am getting from Timmy for my fantasy team.
The football weekend was good, though I was distracted by the election fun a little bit. Texas Tech upset Texas and kicked them off their number 1 ranking. The longhorns almost got out of their brutal 4-game stretch unscathed, but they stumbled at the last hurdle. Now Tech is ranked all the way up at 2 leap-frogging Penn state. Penn state is pissed, but they need to focus on their schedule and just do their job because Texas Tech will probably lose given their brutal Big-12 schedule. Alabama is at LSU this weekend and thats no walk in the park. So this thing is long from over and I expect several shake-ups in the BCS standings before it's all said and done. If Penn State wants the right to get blown out in the championship game, they just need to hang in there and win their easy games. They'll get their wish.
