What SPORTS Did You Watch Today? - 2017

Just watched the Cavs-Wizards go overtime. Best NBA game I've seen this season. Incredible drama, shots, improbable things. Lebron with a career high in assists!

Various college basketball games. Nothing really earthshaking. On the scoreboard I also saw that my Vanderbilt Commodores lost to the Missouri "Safe Spaces". That's freakin' pathetic. Missouri has sucked all year and Vandy at 12-12 needed to win out to have a shot at the tournament. Now they're going to have to win the SEC tourney which will never happen.

I hate Mizzou.

UFC PPV prelims on Fox Sports 1

Seriously????

First F'n day of Spring Training and the Cards already have a candidate for TJ surgery?????

he is a pretty high prospect too right?

He was going to be the number 5 starter.

He's only 22.  He threw around 50 innings last year and had an ERA less than 1.50.

And it's official, he needs TJ surgery. He's scheduled for it tomorrow. I guess since the Cards traded Jaime Garcia they had to keep their starting staff consisting of 3 TJ veterans intact.

Watching the Tarheels and NC State. Tarheels are up by 21.

Jets at Penguins. An exciting game, Pens took a 2-0 lead only to give up 3 straight goals. The Pens managed to tie it up and eventually get the win with 21 seconds left in overtime. Crosby recorded 3 points (including the game winning goal) to give him 1002 career points.

I've been watching various NCAA basketball games most of the day.  Nothing too interesting.

Now I'm watching Bellator MMA on Spike.

UFC on Fox

What a bunch of bloodbaths tonight!  I've seen more blood tonight than in the last 5 years of WWE.  This has been more like the old ECW minus the kendo sticks and barb-wire bats.  Already 2 broken noses and tons of blood all over the octagon mat. And one massive roundhouse kick that split a guy's ear open.  Yuck!

Smackdown Live!

Now Kings vs Avs. The Avs sure do stress me out but I love hockey.

Duke vs Syracuse

Later it will be Louisville vs N. Carolina.

I also just flipped over to SEC Network to catch the end of the Vandy/Tennessee game.  Typical redneck Vol fans didn't like a call and started throwing stuff onto the court.  Why?  Neither team is going anywhere anyway (they're both 15-13).  Oh I forgot, these are "Rocky Top Rednecks" we're talking about here.  Geez I hate UT and their fans.  I lived in middle and western Tennessee for 8 looooooong years and really learned to hate The Vols, Rocky Top and the whole eastern part of the state.  Thankfully I lived only about 20 minutes from Vandy which was like a breath of fresh air.

Currently watching the Coyotes against the Blackhawks.

Bellator MMA on Spike

Duke @ Miami

This game is pathetic; both teams are shooting less than 40% from the field.  It's like watching a JV game. To make it even worse Duke is only 1-6 from the free throw line. Geez, just horrible shooting by both teams; no one should win this game but it looks like Miami will.

Premier Boxing Champions later tonight

Currently watching Ducks - Kings. Surprised to see Jeff Carter fight Ryan Kesler.

Otherwise quite a dull game. 1 goal, 2 fights. One period to go.

This first fight on PBC is a heavyweight war.

Currently watching the Pens Flyers stadium series game

I started watching Louisville and Syracuse but that was a blowout so I watched the second half of the Cardinals/Marlins spring training game. 

Now I'm back to NCAA B-ball with Wisconsin @ Michigan State.

You know, I don't think I've ever seen one Pirates spring training game. I'm not even sure any are televized and if they are, they must be during my work hours.

They're sort of interesting to watch because once you get to around the 4th inning both sides start playing guys you've mostly never heard of.  Kids who know they'll be going back to the minors but are up for the experience, Rule 5 guys, non-roster invitees, etc.  By the time today's game finished the only Cardinal on the field I was familiar with was pitcher Matt Bowman.

Just watched the Blackhawks defeat the Blues 4 to 2.

Watching the Capitals and Rangers.

Bellator 174.

Holy crap, the first fight ended in 13 seconds.
