No Dogs in the Hunt


Thanks to the playoff swoons of the Predators and Mavericks, my spring sports calendar has become wide open. These two regular season power houses were supposed to keep me entertained well into June. Thanks to Golden State Warriors and the San Jose Sharks I'll have to find alternative sports entertainment products from now until football starts. Here are a few things I'll be pulling for over the next three months....

1.) My all-time favorite baseball player, Craig Biggio is within 37 hits of reaching the 3000 mark. He should reach this milestone by the end of June.
2.) It appears imminent that Barry Bonds will eclipse Hank Arron's career home run record within the next two months. I will be pulling hard that he accomplishes this feat on the road. The new home run champ deserves an ovation befitting his character and medicine chest.
3.) More Jeff Gordon victories in former states of the Confederacy.
4.) I'd love to see A-Rod eclipse the 200 RBI mark for a season. It would be great if he could do it this year and overshadow Barry's big moment.
5.) Rickey Henderson coming back to MLB for a 26th season at 48.
6.) Tiger and Phil in the final pairing at the US Open, on Sunday.

Please let it happen the first week of August when he comes to San Diego for a 3 game series.

However, the fan's wouldn't ignore or under appreciate the moment. He would get booed. Padres fans would show up in "*" T-shirts. This town absolutely hates Bonds. Remember that this is the town that threw syringes at him last year? Yeah... you stay classy San Diego.
