Too Darn Hot

This last week, its been such a pain. Too hot. Just TOO hot. The air conditioners are cranked and the fans are buzzing all day long. Blasphemy!

I don't know if summer sports have started since boy golf doesn't have one, but the weather has been a nuisance to do anything outside. That doesn't mean we don't do anything though or any other professional sport that still play.

Like the Angels:
Interplay league has been stellar with a 4-0 record. Francisco Rodriguez, their closing pitcher, has 31 saves in 12 weeks of the season. The fastest ever. The Angels are doing really really well.

Like the Dodgers:
It has been tough for them with a bunch of their great players injured (Andruw Jones, Rafael Furcal, Nomar...). But they still pushing. Chad Billingsley is being consistent and Clayton Kershaw is doing well for a rookie. There is a lot to look forward to. Just a matter of when.

Like Kobe Bryant:
Although he is indoors away from the heat, he still is preparing for the Olympics. For the Gold baby! He will have surgery on his pinkie after the Olympics and skip the Lakers Training Camp. Oh well. NBA Draft is this Thursday, but Lakers have the second-to-last pick. Maybe a trade? Probably not.

Like Euro 2008:
Probably soccer is one of the sports I don't get and boxing too. But some plays in soccer are SWEET. I'll post some if I can find any. Anyway, four teams are left. Turkey. Germany. Russia. Spain. Who will it be?

As for the professionals and Oxford athletes, I hope the summer sports you do will be well. Make sure you drink a lot of fluids. Don't be an idiot! Have fun guys.
