Chiefs

The Chiefs had an amazing draft. They acquired basically everything they needed. Instead of using their first pick on an offensive lineman they chose a defensive tackle then picked the offensive lineman they were going to pick in the first place with their other first round pick. With their other picks they took corner back Brandon Flowers and a couple wide recievers. This should improve the team a lot and now the Chiefs look like a young improving team.

small scare

Atlanta gave the Celtics quite the challenge, but Boston prevailed once again. The hawks brought them to game 7, but they dug in and won so they are moving on in the playoffs. This might of been good for Boston to show them they are not invincible and it is possible for them to be beaten. Now that the little scare is over the Celtics should be able to dominate in the playoffs.

New Liberty Football Coach

Liberty finally hired a new football coach. His name is Joel Wells and is from Nixa Missouri. He has an offensive mentality and most of the coaches from last year are staying. Along with Coach Hanson resigning, Coach Davies is also not coaching next year. Wells has high expectations and is expected to have a winning season.

Sox

After the Red Sox win today they are 13-7 and first in the AL East. They have won 7 of their last 8 games. They have the best record in the American League and now playing consistently well. All the players are doing their part and the pitching is doing exceptionally well with Matsuzaka leading the team in ERA, strikeouts, and wins. Papelbon and Okajima are doing their job of closing games with a combined 7 saves. You should see the Sox have a great season if they keep playing consistently.

Celtics

The Boston Celtics first playoff game is tonight against the Atlanta Hawks. The Celtics beat them all three times they played them in the regular season. This is the first time the Celtics have been in the playoffs in nine years, and they are the top dog in the east. Paul Pierce is leading the team in points per game with Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen not far behind. This trio is what will take the Celtics championship.

Final Four

All four number 1 ranked teams made the final four.  This is the first time in history.  The four teams are Kansas, North Carolina, UCLA, and Memphis.  My prediction is that UCLA and North Carolina will face off in the championship and North Carolina will take it all.  Tyler Hansbrough has led North Carolina throughout the season in points and rebounds.  His leadership and hustle has paid off and now they have a very good chance of being the best team in the NCAA.
