Did everyone survive the weekend?  I barely did and the two hardest days are just ahead.  Let’s just say I’m not the best at hosting things and yet I find myself in that position tomorrow night.  Sounds petty but it’s literally been sucking the life and sleep out of me.

On the other hand, yesterday was Mother’s Day.  My hubby and kids did their best and that’s all I could ask for.  Despite being a busy family day we did make time to go out and have some yummy Thai food for dinner – Thai Kitchen in Maryland Heights.  I love their red curry!

1) ESPN.com: Ok, checking my Twitter timeline during dinner wasn’t cool on my part but hey, I’m addicted just like many of you.  I started reading about all the craziness that was the Lakers-Mavs game.  Andrew Bynum, you’ve shown brief flashes on greatness on the court but you dude, are a sore losing punk.  If that were to happen off the court his butt would be in jail for battery/assault.

That’s not the way Phil Jackson should have ended his incredible coaching career – and in front of his kids and family none the less.  The Zen master deserved a better send off than that.

2) STLSportsMinute.com: Continuing our discussion of the many WR’s the Rams will have at training camp this summer (if we indeed have a season) who would you keep and who would you cut from the roster?

The only clear cut WR to stay on the team would be Danny Amendola for me.  And if they can resign Mark Clayton I’d take him back too.  The others would have to show me 1) that they’re back healthy and 2) that they’re really ready to put some hard work in.  DX, Donnie Avery, Brandon Gibson, Laurent Robinson, Mardy Gilyard, and Dominique Curry you’ve been thrown a challenge flag.

3) NewsRecord.org: Speaking of Mardy Gilyard.  Wanna see what he’s been up to during the lockout?  He must have known I was throwing out that challenge flag.  Looks like he’s working out and getting ready for the season.

I’m going to have a crazy 48 hours.  I’ll try and be around on Twitter but I probably won’t be coming up for air until Wednesday morning.  Send some positive vibes this way if you can.  Appreciate it!
