35 Random Sports Thoughts

I sit through quite a few college classes everyday and I'll admit that my mind sometimes drifts from the class subject. Usually it ends up on sports and I decided to write down the thoughts I have about sports. Here are the last 35 I've had. It's a random list and I just thought it would be a fun post and a good conversation starter. Feel free to comment!

1. There won't be another team win 72 games in the NBA. That Bulls team was incredible.

2. Nelson Cruz will be postseason MVP if he keeps this up and the Rangers win the Series.
3. The hiring of Theo Epstein means Cubs fans have a new savior. I remember the "In Dusty We Trusty" slogans and all that. We will see if Epstein and his new manager can do the job.
4. HOW DO YOU GO 100+ YEARS WITHOUT WINNING A WORLD SERIES?!?!
5. I think I'm starting to like Jay Cutler a little bit more...but I still hate his attitude.
6. The Cardinals look good and the bullpen is actually doing a great job.
7. Pujols will stay in St. Louis but Fielder is going to leave Milwaukee.
8. Nyjer Morgan is an idiot and is playing to his actual skill level this postseason. A.k.a not well.
9. The NBA is committing one of the biggest blunders ever with this lockout.
10. Can there be a charity game with NBA players at the Wigwam in Anderson, IN? (2nd largest high school gym in the nation)
11. Baylor may have the most athletic front line ever assembled this year.

12. The Packers are going to repeat as Super Bowl champs...hate to say it, but it's true.

13. Moneyball was a great movie. Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill both did a phenomenal job.

14. How much of the new Walter Payton book is true? It's one of the saddest things I've ever read.

15. Catching Hell was the best ESPN film to date.
16. There will never be a player more competitive than Michael Jordan. Kobe has the same mentality but LeBron is so far off from those two.
17. I believe in the Detroit Lions but they will lose some games soon. Tough schedule coming up.
18. The Yankees and Red Sox panic too much. They are both fine...not too much work needs to be done with the rosters.
19. Thank the Lord the Marlins have a new stadium! Now the A's need to get their own and I'll feel better about MLB ballparks.

20. North Carolina is going to win the national championship in college basketball. Such a complete team.

21. Aaron Craft is a stud. Expect big things this year from the sophomore.
22. Tom Brady is in the top 5 quarterbacks of all-time.

23. U.S. Soccer may never reach the pinnacle fans are hoping for.

24. Mark Sanchez is overrated and so are the Jets.

25. The media loves certain teams and they get more coverage than they should (Jets, Cowboys, Heat)
26. Cardinals will win the World Series but no team will ever catch the Yankees in WS wins.
27. If Dwyane Wade had come to the Bulls then they would easily have won the title last year.
28. The Bulls are still in store for 2-3 more championships before Rose and Noah are done.

29. The Brooklyn Nets just sounds cool. Hopefully they can be competitive.

30. Alabama and LSU is going to be a must-see game for college football. It's the national championship game basically.

31. Boise State will probably never get their chance. If they do it will be this year. Alabama and LSU will beat each other and Oklahoma could lose in Big 12 play.

32. College conferences suck now. I hate it.

33. Hardly anybody can tackle in the NFL.

34. I wish basketball players had to stay in school for two years. Imagine Eddy Curry at DePaul or LeBron James at Ohio State...

35. Where the heck are guys like Eric Crouch, Jason White and Major Applewhite???
