Not much time to blog today, but remembering where I was a year ago today celebrating the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup victory! Chicago will have to hand over the Cup soon- hopefully to Boston rather than the Canucks, but hopefully we can get it back next year!

1. White Sox FINALLY win! Apparently the line-up shake-up worked, or maybe it was just try for the bats to come out of their slumps, as the Sox scored 9 runs. More playing time for Vizquel! Can we get 2 in a row! 2. Bulls take a 3-0 lead over the Pacers. Again, the Pacers played a very physical hard-foul filled games. Lu stepped up as Luol Deng scores 21! 3. Blackhawks 5, Canucks 0! Lu did not step up in this game, as Luongo was pulled in the second period! 'Hawks are still down 3-2, but Game 6 is on Easter Sunday at the UC!!

with K in the house (and Vince Vaughn), Luongo gets pulled out of the net and the Hawks win 7-2! Avoid the sweep and back to Vancouver for another game. http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/sports/blackhawks/ct-spt-0420-blackhawks-canucks-chicag20110419,0,719449.story (Photo: Brian Cassella, Chicago Tribune / April 19, 2011)

Blackhawks had 2nd most local TV viewership in NHL this season. Averaged 96,000 homes. Penguins 1st at 101,000. Not exactly sure what those numbers represent other than the Blackhawks were #2. Last year's Stanley Cup run brought in the casual local hockey fans. Most of them were drop out as soon as the 'Hawks are eliminated this season.

Just watched Duke defeat UVa. Next, Ravens- Steelers. Then, Packers- Falcons. Need to fit in Blackhawks @ Predators, and of course Heat @ Bulls. I'll deal with the cold weather tomorrow at Soldier Field re Seahawks-Bears! Da Bears. Still need to hire that live-in maid to cook and clean for me so that I can be firmly implanted into the couch. Oh well, as soon as I win the lottery!

It's that time to reflect back and make feeble attempts at resolutions for the future. Well, sure I would have loved for all my sports teams to win championships, but 2010 certainly had its moments! 1. DUKE wins 4th NCAA Basketball title!! April 6, 2010 started out with opening day for the White Sox. McLovin and I got to see Buerhle's defensive pay of the year and the Sox beat the Indians. But McLovin knew that I was getting nervous about a college basketball game that night. There are years as a Duke fan that I am optimistic about a national championship (1992, 2001- except when Boozer got injured in the Maryland game). But this was not one of them. If fact, I was still in some disbelief at the final buzzer as my phones started ringing (TEG letting out a scream of joy in my ear!)Duke was not ranked #1 at any point of the season. I don't care too much for ranking my favorite Duke national championship year, but this year with Zoubek stepping it up in a huge way, Scheyer wa...

ENJOY! Bears, Bulls & Blackhawks all win!

1. Thanks to Cliff Lee for forcing ESPN to talk about something other than Brett Favre. 2. Winners- Cliff Lee, Phillies, AL batters (who do the Phillies play in interleague?) and SI's Jon Heyman. 3. NBA winning streaks continue last night for Miami Heat and CHICAGO BULLS! 4. Terrible lose for the Blackhawks last night in Denver. TERRIBLE.
