Woods Wins Accenture Match Play
It is a scary thought when someone tells you that Tiger Woods is at his best during head-to-head or match play competition. He has again proven this statement to be true by winning this weekend's tournament, the Accenture Match Play. Not only did he win the crown, but he did it in a dominating fashion. He ended the 36-hole match with a 8-and-7 victory, the biggest winning margin in the tournament's history. The win also gave him a few more things to add to his resume: Holding all 3 of the world titles at the same time, having a 4-tournament winning streak under his belt, and a 5-world tournament streak. Even more impressive, Tiger said after the match "I think this is the best stretch I've ever played". Is this the peak of Tiger Woods? Will anyone step up this year to make a fierce competitor? Will Tiger finally succeed in the Triple Crown? The only way to answer these questions is by watching this summer's golf!

Zednik has Neck Injury
With 10 minutes left in the Sabres game last night, Panthers forward Richard Zednik was cut in the neck by a skate of teammate Olli Jokinen. He was rushed to a Buffalo hospital to have immediate surgery on the wound. After 2 hours in the operating room, he is now stable and on the road to recovery..and hopefully playing again.
This type of injury is the second the Sabres have seen. Clint Malarchuk had a similar incident while playing goalie for the Sabres. Malarchuk's accident happened about 19 years ago, and I hope it will be another 19 years (or more) before it happens in the NHL again.

New York Giants - Super Bowl Champions
I will be honest, I wanted the Patriots to win. I was hoping to see history last night, but the Giants were the better team and the outcome of the game showed it. The Giants are a fun team to watch, and I have kept a close eye on their games throughout the year. Eli started off the year struggling, but ended the year as the Super Bowl MVP. His play throughout the playoffs and last night has been no less than stellar! He did deserve the MVP for the game, but so did the Giant Defense. They played out of their minds and kept Brady from having any chance for good timing. Congratulations to the New York Giants, and enjoy the excitement that comes with it!

BCS Championship Game Monday Night
It has been an exciting week of College football Bowl games! Throughout the week, we have seen blowouts (USC, Georgia), upsets (West Virginia, Michigan), and even close wins (Kansas). With only a few games left, and the Championship game coming up on Monday, what should we expect? The only thing that is guaranteed is great football!
I feel that Ohio State and LSU will be a great matchup for the final College game of the year. My guess is that it will be a close game, but LSU will come up with the win. It is hard to say that Ohio State may lose 2 years in a row, but I feel that LSU is a little more well-rounded, and can squeak out the win. Cheers to a great game...I will be watching!

Week 15 - Miami Dolphins
Between the horrible weather in many games this week and a few upsets, this week's football was very exciting to watch! I enjoyed watching a white screen all day that was called the Browns vs. Bills game, the extremely high gusts of wind in the Sunday night game, and many others. For upsets, I was shocked to see Dallas losing to Philadelphia and San Francisco winning their match against Cincinnati. The game that impressed me the most though was the Overtime win for Miami.
A few weeks ago, many people throughout the country were impressed with how Baltimore played against the New England Patriots. They had the game won until Brady and Co. were able to pull out a game-winning TD drive. This week, they lose to the winless Miami Dolphins? The win came from a 64-yard catch and run to Greg Camarillo in Overtime. The series before that, Matt Stover missed a 44-yard field goal that would have given Baltimore the win and kept Miami winless.
Cleo Lemon had a good day with 315 yards passing, 12 yards rushing, and 1 passing TD. His favorite receiver of the day was Greg Camarillo with 3 receptions, 109 yards, and that winning TD. Marty Booker also had a good day with 8 receptions and 88 yards. For the Miami rushing game, Samkon Gado was the lead rusher with 43 yards and 1 TD.
Congratulations to the Miami Dolphins for finally getting a win for the season!
