And then there were......


Well, that's hard to say. I've still got a couple of hockey teams to follow, but the Maineiacs and the Fighting Irish are done. The Maineiacs were swept in their playoff series, but they did announce that they're coming back. Forgive and forget??? Well, probably. The Irish got knocked out of the NCAA's in the first round, a disappointment, but they had such an excellent season, that it's hard to be too disappointed. There are still the Bruins, Pirates, and the Steel to root for.

March Madness continues its March. The Fighting Irish women were done early on as were the Lady Vols. Sigh. The Fighting Irish men are still alive in the NIT ("Not Invited Tournament"), so that's a bright spot. The NCAA's have been pretty exciting. I've been rooting for the Big East and they have two teams in the Final Four. It would be great if it ended with 'Nova and UConn facing each other in the finals.

At the end of hockey and college basketball seasons, I'll be going into hibernation. Oh, I'll watch baseball, but much of the summer it's just too darn hot to care. Bring on the Fall weather with football, basketball, and hockey anew. Yeah!
