Boring time.

Right now in sports there are a few things going on. and it seems like in my blogs and other things all anyone ever talks about is the world cup or NBA free agency. Not very many people are even talking about baseball but i guess that is a little important.

There have been 4 no-hitters this year. The pitchers have totally taken over the game. The better pitching you have the better team you have. There have also been some teams to have winning streak of 11 such as the Rangers and White Sox. Yet, thats not what anyone is talking about.
They talk about the free agency of many NBA stars. Leading all these stars is LeBron James. Then there is Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh, Dirk Nowitzki, Amare Stoudemire, and others. This is what people are talking about. But how much can you talk about the same people and where they might go. Eventually the people listening get less interested or they want to hear about something else.

The fact that there may be a super team in Miami. They might have LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Wade. That just seems rediculous, but now it seems like the top option. I think that the better thing to do would be to wait it out, but i don't think that many sportswriters or reporters would agree with me.
Then there is the fact that we almost had a super conference in college football built this year. That would have made this summer sooo crazy that i might now have been able to handle it. But that did not happen and the college football landscape is not completely different.
Finally, the world cup. The USA had made a good run and many Americans were very excited about this years world cup. We won our group and got to the next round and we lost. But, the action continued. Many Americans are still watching. This is the most watched world cup so far. There is a sudden interest in the world cup, but in recent cups there has been little participation from the American people. Now we have many fans. Maybe this will start a little surge for people who want to play soccer well and be in the world cup. Maybe someday America will win a world cup.

Brazil was my favorite team left after the United States lost. Today they suffered a close but not so close loss. They had a good first half, but the second half was too much and they ended up losing. It was too bad. The only team that i like that is left is Argentina. They seem to be on a good path and have been winning games, but I hope i don't jinx them.
