I guess we start to see what is going to happen in about 1.5 hours.

Dick Vitale who said last season that LeBron would someday be considered the equal of Michael Jordan said this morning that the Cavs will win in 7. He said LeBron would be like a young Magic and not allow his team to lose.
I am having a hard time seeing the Cavs beating the Spurs except [...]

Racing weekend

May 21, 2007

What a great time, go-kart tracks, good time with family and 180,000 gear heads.
