Quite a Fun Sports and Entertainment Related Weekend
The Hershey Bears won twice at home this weekend to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the AHL Calder Cup Finals. One more win and the Cup goes back to Hershey. Go Bears! Way to win on Saturday 3-0 and on Sunday 2-1! The team is getting outstanding playoff goaltending. We are very deep in goalie prospects now. That is such a comforting thought, isn’t it ?
The Bears play again at home trying to close it out on Tuesday. Click here to read about yesterday’s big win.
The Washington Mystics started strong too with a Saturday night win over Connecticut and a big win over Atlanta at home yesterday. We have a lot of depth now; a lot of team speed; and an entire new upbeat and positive attitude. We had a big and enthusiastic crowd yesterday at our season home opener. It was loud and it was appreciative of how we responded to being down big after the first period to coast to an easy win. I am hopeful that our rebuild of the Washington Mystics is as successful as our rebuild of the Washington Capitals. So far so good. Click here to read about the Mystics performance from this weekend. I hope to see you all at a game this season.
Winning Begets Winning and Losing Begets Losing…
Has Federer lost it? Ever since the start of the year and his battles with mono, he hasn’t been his once dominating self. Losing in the Olympics to James Blake doesn’t auger well for his play in the upcoming US Open. Nadal seems to have psyched him out and is now the king of all of tennis. The King is dead…long live the King!
Youth Must be Served
We saw a passing of the torch yesterday, a 22-year-old stepped up and a 27-year-old stood down. That was an amazing day of tennis. Nadal is a warrior and Federer is a champion of grace, style and substance.
You could see in Federer’s eyes that he knew that he had been surpassed by a younger great player. What an epic battle. What a fun finals at Wimbledon.
