.....well today is mrs. jp23's birthday. And yes, while she'll kill me for saying, she turns 39 today (well technically at like 11:57 pm, which gives her 3 whole minutes to celebrate). And we here at the Riff have 39 quickies for you today to celebrate. Whether it has to do with mrs.jp23 or not:
1. Watched the NBA playoffs last night. That's a first for me in a long time
2. Watched the Derby yesterday. Wife had a great idea: put $1 in a hat, then draw a horse. Winner takes all. And someone did draw the winner. And it made non horse race fans like me watch.
3. Bulls disappointed last night. Always next year.
4. Still have the Blackhawks. Alive and tied.
5. Too bad the Penguins and capitals are meeting now. This was made for the Conference finals.
6. JoePa wants a 12th team in the Big Ten. Preferably from the East. That's a good one.
7. George Mason's baseball team is on the brink of the top 25 rankings.
8. So Detroit guaranteed $41 million to their first round draft pick. Isn't this wrong in today's economy?
9. Didn't watch much of the NFL draft. I'm sick of every little thing being overblown. I mean, who cares??
10. I see that London wants to host the Super Bowl.. You're kidding, right??
11. Isiah Thomas is now a college basketball coach. Whats the over/under that team is on probation??
12. I hate Milton Bradley. Waste of space in my book
13. Okay...39 little rants may be much for attention spans (and sanity). So when I turn 39 in a few days, I shall continue this line. I will leave you with some famous (or maybe infamous) number 39's:
-Roy Campanella
-Malcom X and MLK were both assassinated at age 39
-Neil Armstrong was 39 when he walked on the moon
-Jimmy Connors reached the US Open Tennis semifinals at age 39
-Larry Csonka
-Hugh McElhenny
-Stan Hack (Cubs 1935-36)
Anyway.....Happy 39th SFP
