A Great Week In Sports

Well, all in all it has been a great week in sports for me!!
We started the week (last Sunday) with a first pre-season game (a home game) win by the Golden State Warriors over the Los Angeles Lakers…  125-108
The San Francisco Forty-Niners remain undefeated (so far) by stomping the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 45-10!!!  (And it really wasn’t THAT close.)
The Los Angeles Dodgers embarrassingly choked away a 100 win season getting swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks in their National League Division Series!!!
And tonight, the Dubs win their second pre-season game (this one an away game) also against the LA Lakers by 129 – 125.
How sweet it is!!!
Now, being totally honest, we all know pre-season games mean next to nothing.  (Particularly in the NBA, pre-season games only mean something if one of your star players gets a serious injury.)  …And, the Lakers’ starters looked and played better than the Dubs’ starters.  But, our scrubs played better than their scrubs and we managed to eke out the win.  And, I’ll take a win over a loss anytime, even when it doesn’t really count for anything.
All in all, a very good week!!!

Sweep!!!

Golden State Warriors Sweep the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2018 NBA Finals!!!
Dubs are 2018 NBA Champs
Congrats to the Golden State Warriors on winning the 2018 NBA Finals in a four game sweep.  Game 1:  Close, but won in OT.  Game 2:  all Steph.  Game 3:  all KD.  Game 4:  too much of KD and Steph in blow-out “no-mas” victory to end the series.  Two titles in a row!  Oh, my!  There goes those Dubs!
