I’m not sure when we started naming blizzards (I remember most winter events being remembered by things like “Ice Storm of ’98” or “Blizzard of ‘32”), but this weekends storm system deserved to be named after something much tougher than a Pixar fish.
9. Cristiano Ronaldo Nets a Hat Trick
We
usually save our soccer praises for Lionel Messi (who despite leading a 6-1
romp on Sunday, gets a week off), we’ll call out the pretty boy on Real Madrid for
a job well done.
8. Rusty Wallace, An Old Guy, and Three Dead People Join
NASCAR Hall of Fame
Rusty
was one of the pillars of the sport when I was first getting into it as a
youngster. I’ve mocked him several times in this blog (whether it was including
him on the list of worst ESPN employees, or
shamelessly linking to the video of his ’93 crash at Talladega), but for all
he’s done for NASCAR, he deserved to get in.
7. Rob Ryan Lands
With the Saints
Ryan has always cooked up a good gameplan for the Saints,
so this isn’t a shock at all.
6. California Pulls Off Road Upset at #7 Arizona
Here’s your “Top-10 Upset That No Credentials
Doesn’t Give a Shit About Of The Week”, sponsored by Prestone.5. Clippers Survive 3rd Quarter Carmelo Onslaught
Carmelo had 38 points by the end of the third quarter, but somehow only managed to put up two shots in the fourth.
4. Half-Court Heave Leads to Wisconsin’s Overtime Upset
Over Michigan
I’m
all-in on desperation heaves that improbably
tie basketball games. Michigan feels like a #2 seed that’s
going to get bounced in the second round.3. Lebron Dominates Again
Five straight games with 30+ points while shooting better than 60% from the floor is ridiculous.
2. Notre Dame Needs Five Overtimes to Knock Off Louisville
For
those not in the know, that’s a lot of fucking overtimes.
1. Celtics Pull Out Triple Overtime Victory, Now
7-0 Without Rondo
You can’t be surprised at all that Boston dropped
Monday night’s game against the Bobcats after the epic
tilt they had with the Nuggets on Sunday.
