Championship Game Sunday. My picks are Indy and Philly. Hoping to see D-Nabb against Freeney and Harrison in Houston and hopefully a few months after that we will get the Orangemen back in San Antonion to defend their title.

Don't look now, but GMac and the boys are playing some pretty good ball. If they can get some solid minutes from the bench, they will be a tough out come tourney time. Despite their loss yesterday, UConn should roll through the Big East. They are big, deep and talented. The problem with picking them to win the big dance is that they are not smart. They pounded Carolina inside, but many times settled for bad jumpers and committed some horrendous fouls.

Fantasy basketballis not going as well for me. All of the injuries I avoided in football are catching up to me in hoops. Combine that with some outrageous trades in my league and I am sinking to the bottom faster than the Orlando Magic.

Fantasy Football Champions- this guy's squad. I finally won a football league thanks to Trent Green reverting back to his form from last year. I went back to The Chad and even with his 5 INT's, he managed to run in a couple of scores and I rolled to victory with my highest point total this season. Back to back titles next year- don't bet against me. Now I must focus on getting my hoops squad back on track.

A-Rod staying in Texas.....not so fast my friend. Don't be surprised if a deal is done soon. Boston is still lurking and Baltimore might want to offer the Rangers Tejada and a couple of prospects for A-Rod. Think he wouldn't put asses back in the seats in Camden Yards.

Now that 2004 is upon us, what should we expect. Hmmm...I don't care as long as we don't see the return to fashion of Members Only jackets and rolled-up jeans.
