With the start of game one For the Cavs vs hawks game where Mr. James had showed why he is called MVP with 34 points in game one. The score of game one was 99-72, I believe this will go up to game 6.

Celtics better wake up in game 2 tonight otherwise their chances of another championship we soon be faded. Hopefully Garnett will give a inspirational speech.

With the Los Angeles Lakers loosing game 1 at home they will also have to step up there game. Lets see what Ron Artest has to offer tonight for the Rockets.

NBA Playoffs

With the Second round starting yesterday, we also got to see the final game for the Miami Heat in game seven of their series versus the Atlanta Hawks. I feel this might of been the best series in the NBA besides the Bulls/ Celtics series which had four games go into overtime. The Heat had came off a bad season in 2007-2008 with a record of 15-67 and Dwayne wade missing 31 games of that season. This season ( 2008-2009) the Heat went 43-39 and was the fifth seat in the Eastern Conference. They also got to show the Hawks that they were a worthy team to play.
With the second round of play the are down Mavericks are down 1-0 in their series with the Nuggets in the Western Conference. People predict the Nuggets will win in seven games. I feel that Dirk will lift the Mavericks to a series victory. In the Eastern Conference the Celtics lose game one 95-90 to the Magics. I feel that the Celtics have given up an opportunity to move on to the Conference Finals.

FIFA World Cup 2010!

The soccer games are almost here! I feel that this World Cup will be taken by Brazil . I have asked many soccer fanatics “who will win the World Cup?” and the majority of the time the answer is Brazil.

The FIFA World Cup has had their games since 1930 with Uruguay being the first to win a World Cup, but Brazil has the most championships and is one of the only teams to appear in every World Cup. Many people have this as a”money maker” situation with the safest bet, which is Brazil. Maybe we can see a rivalry game (Brazil vs Argentina).

Phelps Being Let Off Easy…

Well it’s finally out there that Michael Phelps has only been suspended for three months and with some of his sponsors like Kellogg’s company to cut away and would not want to renew a contract with him.

Michael Phelps has apologized many times and knows that he has to work his way up to get the same respect from the midia. Well I was looking and he is pretty luck that he didnt lose 100% of the different endorsements. I do hope that Phelps can get back on his feet and start over on a new begining. I also think what saved Michael was the fact that he won 8 gold medals in the olympics and that he has many of the younger kids looking up to him.

Is Phelps going to lose everything?!

I was watching the news and I saw that Michael Phelps might just lose everything he has, from his medals to the companies that sponsor him. I was reading into it further and a lot of the details that were said and I feel that a lot of people are against him I feel that he knows what he did wrong , but for something like smoking a bit of pot I feel that the media has crashed hard on him. I would understand if it were a drug to enhance his performance, but to go overboard and take everything that he has gained because of something that many people use day to day and even other famous people have used and have not got into major trouble for smoking pot than why should Phelps go down without a say in anything? I think people should give it more thought; they should do some other type of punishment which does not require such harsh results.

What do you think should happen to Michael Phelps?
