‘Member? It’s All About De-Troooit, Booiii!

Whas Happened In Sports This Holiday Weekend

• NBA Playoffs 2008: A long weekend without blogging duties meant a lot of time dedicated to actually watching sports. Case in point, watching the Celtics get burned is a much more satisfying experience than reading about it the next day. Detroit 94, Boston 75. [AFP]
• MLS: Shady calls and an open net lead the Los Angeles Galaxy to a first-place, Western Conference standing for the first time in two years. Oh, David Beckham scored a 70-yard goal. Los Angeles Galaxy 3, Kansas City Wizards 1. [LA Times]
• MLB 2008: No one wants to free Willie (Ok. Dagger in the heart for that one) Randolph from his post as manager so that means the Mets will simply keep on losing. NY Mets 3, Florida Marlins 7. [ESPN]
• Skydiving: Not necessarily part of a league but 64 year old skydiver will try, for the third time, to skydive from 130,000 feet. If all goes well, he won’t die. Prediction: life 1, death 0. [The Sun]
