It sure feels like summer-time......in this southern college town. The temperatures are in the 90's........it's humid.......it's hot........and it's only June.
It is Wednesday.........."Hump Day".....Here's what we're following:
A series.......after all..........
The Orlando Magic beat the Los Angeles Lakers last night, 108-104. The Lakers still hold a 2 games to 1 edge in the best of 7 .....with the home team winning all three games.
From the Chicago Tribune: Orlando Magic sets shooting record, beats L.A. Lakers in NBA…
The Magic shot 63% from the field........Kobe Bryant missed 5 of 10 free throws........commits four turn-overs........And the Magic still only win ....by 4 points.....at home.
Last night, they dodged a huge....."Kobe" bullet.

TV..........and the NBA.....A love-fest........
These finals may not include New York, or Boston.....or LeBron James.....but.....America is watching.
Last nights over night ratings.......according to Nielsen:
| Time | Net | Show | 18-49 Rating | 18-49 Share | 18-34 Rating | 18-34 Share | Viewers Live+SD (million) |
| 10:00 | ABC | NBA Finals: Game 3 | 4.5 | 12 | 4.9 | 16 | 10.647 |
| NBC | NHL Stanley Cup Finals: Game 6 | 2.5 | 7 | 2.1 | 6 | 6.145 | |
| CBS | 48 Hours Mystery (repeat) | 1.9 | 5 | 1.2 | 4 | 8.850 |
The NBA is beating Hockey's Stanley Cup by almost a 2 to 1 margin....
That myth about the NBA being a "thug" league.......is just that .....a myth. In the all important 18-34 year old demographic........the NBA is being watched in more homes ....and sports bars than ever before.
Admit it..........these guys........are the best athletes in the world.
Mike Vick & Bankruptcy.......
Seems Michael Vick.......is not exactly bankrupt......At least the judge hearing his case is not convinced. He gave Vick until July 2 to come up with a new plan.....and even suggest Mr. Vick sell a few houses and a few cars.....to pay off his dept.
From Bing.com: Judge: Vick Must Get Bankruptcy Plan In Place By July 2
Poor Michael........
Hump Day.....short-shorts:
The Atlanta Braves......have won 3 in a row...(shhhhh) don't tell anyone.
Including last night.....The N Y Yankees have lost all 6 games to the Boston Red Sox...
Joe Montanas' son........is going to the University of Washington...to play quarter-back..
Tiger Woods.....won his 67th career PGA tournament Sunday....amazing!
The WNBA is back........are you watching?
Have a great....."Hump Day"
