TOWN 2.0: I'M BACK

Ok so a lot has changed since March 9

Let's recap shall we, and I'll try to go in order:

MSU got robbed against Wisconsin in the Big Ten Tournament, got sent to the South Region, made a nice run to the Sweet 16 before getting their asses handed to them by Memphis.

1 of my best friends in the game got married. Congrats once again to Marty and Jenny F.

The Pistons won 59 games, got to the Eastern Conference Finals...AGAIN...and lost...AGAIN! WTF! Which means, Flip Saunders, get yo ass out of Detroit.

RED WINGS - 2008 STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS! LET'S GET IT DETROIT!

Tiger Woods won the U.S. Open on 1 leg. Unbelievable

I made a big splash by coming up with a MCBB Prestige Rankings that was a big hit on ESPN.com. Shout out to Nick2Cents for helping a ton with the process. Check his spot out too (Nicks2Cents@blogspot.com). Nick, you can thank me later for the free pub.
Top 10 teams since 1985
I chatted about it too

I made my last trip to Chicago for a really long time. I'll let you read between the lines for that one.

The Lions went 4-0 in the preseason...still waiting on that first win that actually counts...we'll get back to them in a minute.

The Tigers, led by awful starting pitcher, an awful bullpen, and awful defense found a way to finish last in the AL Central after having the 2nd highest payroll in the bigs. HUH?

I've moved from R1 to R2 status.

I heart Mark Dantonio (pause).

The Michigan State Spartans lost their season opener at Cal. They've won 9 of 10 games since. That's right. Michigan State is 9-2 and can win the Big Ten in 2 weeks...seriously...no i'm not just making that up...i'm serious!

All of my fantasy football teams suck, except for the one I don't pay much attention to. That was is 6-4 somehow and is the highest scoring team in the league!

Back to the Lions. The Lions are 0-9. They've been outscored 145-63 at home. They stink. They suck. They are awful. They've lost 16 of their last 17 regular season games. They have an idiot coach talkin about a shovel and a pick and some tomb or some shit. Get him out of here!

The Michael Curry era has begun in Detroit and Chauncey Billups is no longer around. The man known as A.I. is wearing the Red, White, and Blue. Damn it looks strange. They need time to gel but they'll be fine come playoff time.

Izzo's got the boys locked and loaded once again. No. 7 in the preseason, games against Maryland, Gonzaga, Tennessee/Georgetown, North Carolina, Texas, and Kansas. Should be a fun year. Final Four in the D. If they get there then it's bananas!

And of course we can't forget: MY PRESIDENT IS BLACK! Barack Obama got it done. 44th president of the United States. Shout out to America for getting this thing right. I'm not a huge political guy so don't get it twisted but this definitely seems like the right move. And no I didn't vote for him because he's black. For those who didn't vote for him, remember that this is your president too. We gotta work together to get this done.
