Sunday Sundown Rundown - 4/14/13

3 Up

1. A full weekend. I won't have one until May 11th. Two days in a row definitely makes a difference. 

2. Yankees triple play against the Orioles. Chaotic, but pretty darn cool. 

3. Knicks clinch the Atlantic Division, and lock up the second seed in the Eastern Conference Finals. 

3 Down

1. Teens Leading Prostitution Ring of Other Teens - We all read and hear of many stories daily that raise the bar of humans doing dispicable things, but this one stayed with me all week. Really?! Where are we eventually heading in society? 

2. Canadian Teen Suicide - After Steubenville, Ohio, who would've thought something this terrible would happen again? Only this time, it lead to the victim taking her own life. 

3. Scumbag Tenants - My parents are dealing with yet another tenant that refuses to pay rent. These types of people are such headaches and heartaches. It's amazing how the law protects unfit tenants.

No, no, no! In terms of hype, storylines, payoffs, match quality, and just overall fun - this entire weekend was amazing.  I'm slightly skewed in my preference as well. This was my son's first Wrestlemania as a pro wrestling fan. Having him at my side cheering on his favorites, getting caught up in the drama, and even crying at the end of the night because his Tribal Chief lost to "that no good Cody" added to the overall appreciation of the event.  So yeah, I have some

DP Review of the Alternate Knicks Orange Jersey

One of the good aspects about having a blog and being truthful and honest about it, is the hindsight thought process it provides. DP devotees already know how much I love my New York Knicks, and how excited I was about their new jerseys last year. It was a new look that was desperately needed ( DP Review On Knicks New Uniforms ).  In reviewing those jerseys last year, I had the following comments in regards to then-rumors regarding the addition of an alternative orange jersey for the Knicks and overall NBA changes to the Christmas Day special jerseys:  "As long as we do not add an "alternative jersey" (I read rumors of an orange one - woof!) (and the league-wide Spanish jerseys are fine). And please, please - PLEASE - let's finally do away with the awful green jerseys we feel the need to wear on Christmas and St. Patrick's day! Pretty please!"
