1) NBA Playoff Update – With the 2nd round of the NBA Playoffs being over it is time to give a quick update (remember they are best out of 7 series). In the West we have The Dallas Mavericks (who upset the Lakers) moving on to play either the Memphis Grizzlies or the Oklahoma City Thunder (series is tied at 2 – 2). In the East, The Miami Heat are beating the Boston Celtics 3 games to 1 and they will play either The Atlanta Hawks or the Chicago Bulls who are tied 2 games to 2. Have no fear saying: How the hell did the Mavericks beat the Lakers in 4 straight games?
2) Golf Is Happening? – Yes it is, it is actually still early in the golf season and the bad news keeps coming for Tiger Woods. After skipping the last tournament with a minor injury Tiger will be playing this weekend but unfortunately he will not be the #1 ranked or even #6 ranked golfer out there. Tiger Woods has dropped to eighth in the world golf rankings after being overtaken by Paul Casey of England. It is fine to say: Tiger fell from grace, now he fell to #7 in the world rankings.
