10 Awesome Things That Happened This Weekend (4/5-4/7)

10. Rob Gronkowski Needs Further Surgery
           No word yet on whether or not Gronkowski’s infection originated from an Irish pub, a strip club, or a house party.

9. Cubs Strip Carlos Marmol of Closer Role

            Is two days the shortest leash a closer has ever had in MLB history?

8. Louisville Women Join Men’s Team in Championship Game

7. Connecticut Finally Beats Notre Dame, Makes Women’s Title Game
            I could give a shit about women’s basketball, but I had a hard enough digging for seven things to put on this list, so filling two spots here is worth the plug for women’s hoops.

6. Jimmie Johnson Dominates Martinsville

            No Credentials has a hard team thinking of a race he looks forward to less than one at the track that Jimmie Johnson dominates at more than any other.

5. Clippers Clobber Los Angeles
            I’m not sure which stat is more incredible, that the Clippers won their first division title in franchise history, or that they swept the Lakers for the first time since 1974-75. 

4. Carmelo Continues Going Bonkers, Leads Knicks to Win in OKC

            New York is looking more like the team that started the year as the greatest threat to the Heat in the Eastern Conference.

3. Will Middlebrooks Racks Up 3 Dingers
            For those not in the know, that’s a lot of fucking home runs.

2. Michigan Tries to Choke, Hangs on to Beat Syracuse
            All Syracuse needed was a Michigan player to do a Chris Webber and call a time-out they didn’t have to push the Orange into the Championship Game.

1. Down 12, Louisville Rallies Past Wichita St.

            If my bracket is any indication, the following prediction is probably awful, but No Credentials sees Louisville winning by double digits tonight.
