A Game 6

Yes I did it. I stayed up for the unthinkable! 109 MINUTES...It ended at about 12:55am last night, Game 5 between the Detroit Red Wings and the Pittsburgh Penguins!!!! THREE OVERTIMES...A must win for the Penguins as the Red Wings had the chance to win the Cup at home in Detroit. Well, IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!!!!! The Penguins, who were predicted to lose the Stanley Cup in what some said would be a swee,p pulled it out last night with a goal by Sykora at the 109-minute mark!! If not for Max Talbot's goal with 34.3 seconds left in regulation the game and Cup would have gone the Red Wings. It was one of the best Stanley Cup hockey games that I've ever seen! It's precisely why you have to watch the Cup, one of the best championships in professional sports. Wednesday Game 6 in Pitt! Go Pitt !!!!!

And an update to my interview with TO, Terrell Owens on Friday morning. Last night on ESPN.com in the lead story, TO "was slated to earn $7 million this season in the last year of his contract, but he now receives a 4-year, $34 million deal. Owens is slated to earn $27 million over the next three seasons, making him -- along with Randy Moss, Javon Walker and Larry Fitzgerald -- one of the highest paid wide receivers in the league." Great news for him!!!! He did seem very at ease when I asked him about contract negotiations the other day and whether or not he would end his career in Dallas. According to ESPN.com, he will be 38 in the final year of the extension, 2011.

Am I nuts? Yes. Don't stay up until 1am for Cup games when you have to wake up at 4am. Not good for the brain cells. Especially when the next night is the results of the South Dakota and Montana primaries and perhaps a victory speech for Obama, as he will now be the presumptive nominee for the Democratic Party!!! After 6 months and 61 contests! Obama needs 42 delegates to clinch it. This is as more superdelegates are piling on to close the nomination. Look out for tomorrow's headlines today.      VICTORY.....IT'S OVER....FINALLY A WINNER....HISTORY HAS BEEN MADE......SIX MONTHS AND HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS DOLLARS LATER...THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS A NOMINEE. What headline would you create for tomorrow's paper? Send me some ideas.
