The weekend walk through

The most bitter of rivals meet in a clash of power house's at Yankee Stadium. Boston has a record of 8-0 vs the yankees all season. What happens? Well the Yankees take the first three and go for the sweep tonight. Game one john Smoltz pitched for the Red sox, he was terrible and then the next day DFA. The yankee hitters just got a hold of everything he was throwing in his 3 1/3 he pitched guiding them to a 13-6 wins. Friday night they play into the wee hours of the morning after a great pitching duel between Josh Beckett and AJ Burnett. The bull pens hold it up till the 15th when A-Rod comes up and hits the game winning two run home run. Saturday we see the bettle of Clay Buchholz vs CC Sabathia. Sabathia is Dominant the whole game and helps rest the bull pen that had been used oh so much the night before. Now what to expect on Sunday night? Who knows.


Switching gears to golf. The WGC Bridgestone invitational at famed Firestone Golf club where Tiger woods has won 6 tims already. As he goes for back to back before the final major of the year at Hazeltein he comes out with a solid two under round being five back for Paddy Harrington. Friday brings an even par round and then along comes saturday. He's ready to make a run. He makes it late to get to -7, 3 back of Harrington going into Sunday. What to expect? Well playing with Tiger is a lot different and many players crumble under the pressure of playing with Tiger and Harrington is looking strong untill the par five 16th. With a 1 shot lead over tiger they both pull their drives. Tiger lays up to about 182 in the fairway. Harrington ends up in the rough just on the lip of the bunker and skuls his long into the rough. Tiger? He hits a hard 8 iron and spins it to four inches for any easy tap in. Then Harrington procedes to hit the fourth into the water and ends up making Tripple bogey just giving Tiger the win. His 70th carrer win and now only 12 back for Sam Snead for the all time lead.


Todays tip. For any of you who have your Fantasy Football leagues draft coming up soon. Don't force yourself to get two running backs right off the bat. Look for a Good Wide out to compliment your stud running back. And if you can't get Drew Brees, Peyton Manning or Tom Brady. Don't worry. you can get a good QB later. You'd be surprised by the fact of how good of a season Carson Palmer, Matt Casstle and Matt Ryan will have when you can get them later on in your draft
