A Few Things........Learned From the Weekend



Normally....we do this on a Monday......

But Monday came....and Monday went. Sorry, but some of us still have to work for a living. And in my line of work, the hours can get a little crazy.

Anyway........back to what we learned.....

In the Beijing Olympic.........

It was thrilling to watch the 10,000 meter race on Sunday........Ethiopians and Kenyans.....These guys were actually lapping world class runners.

The last 800 meters..........was a sprint.....And when I say sprint.....consider this. The last 2 laps were clocked at 55 seconds each......The race ended up with Ethiopia 1 and 2, with a Kenyan claiming 3rd.

USA 106, Germany 57.......

The Americans played perhaps their best game ..........We said here first.....that this team would dominate...........well........take a look:
Americans drub Germany 106-57 in men's…



WFAN has some changes.....

The "Mike and the Mad Dog" show..........is history. Chris "Mad Dog" Russo has left WFAN....Leaving Mike Francesa to go solo. Sources as Russo will sign with Satellite biggie , Sirius. For all of us one time New Yorkers, we remember 66 WFAN, "the fan"........When they took over 66 WNBC....some 20 years ago. Nothing stays the same ...forever. Good luck , dog.





"Transformers"...........was a pretty entertaining movie.

In this .......southern college town.....it was move in day for all incoming University of Georgia freshmen over the weekend. Am I glad.......I've already been there. My daughter is a senior........married...lives off campus. But I still remember her freshmen year.....utter chaos.

Did we...........really learn .......anything?

This weekend?
