My favorite sports teams are (in order of favorite)...
...USC Trojans (ok, I just love the school...I follow the basketball team, I am familiar with the baseball team...would love to get my MBA there - if it weren't for a pesky thing like $150k -, but I am obsessed with the football team)
...Los Angeles Lakers (Kobe Bryant is my favorite player for many reasons - I don't give a damn about what Bill Simmons says...he is a Celtic fan - but if he leaves the Lakers...he no longer is my favorite)
...Detroit Red Wings (I love the Wings and love Steve Yzerman - by far my favorite player in ANY sport)
...Los Angeles Dodgers (I love the Blue...don't really have a favorite player past or present...just love the team - Gibson, Hershiser, and the '88 world series are stuck in my head...mostly because Jason Sharp sat behind me in English class that year and he was a huge Oakland A's fan)
...Jacksonville Jaguars (L.A. has been without a pro football team for many years - in fact, the only pro game I have ever been to was between the L.A. Rams and the Atlanta Falcons [Deion Sanders was on the Falcons at the time] - anyway, the Jags drafted a few Trojans early on {Jeff Kopp, Rob Johnson, Tony Boselli, etc...} so it made sense for me to be a Jags fan. None of those guys are still around and Fred Taylor is my favorite player - I hope he gets a ring with the Pats)
Occasionally, as a fan of sports we are gifted with great days. A few years back me and a couple buddies of mine and my pregnant wife went to San Francisco and saw an entire Dodgers v. Giants series and saw the USC v. Stanford game on the Farm.
Today was one of those days...
...the Wings beat Sid the Kid and took game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals
...the Magic beat the Cavs - remember I said I was a Kobe fan...thus, I respect LeBron...but love to see him lose. I also love hearing about how great of a guy he is...YET, he decided to skip the part were he congratulates the team that kicked his ass - check out these commercials they are hilarious
...unfortunately, the Dodgers lost today...but they still have the best record in the MLB even without Man-Ram (possibly the most unfortunate nickname in the history of the world)
Updates...
I am still researching the short sales, the loan modifications and the foreclosure processes and consequences. I hope to be posting more about this soon.
