Finally recovering from the end of football season depression (I was 
surprised to find that my healthcare plan does not cover therapy for 
post football syndrome.. what do I pay all that money for anyway?) I 
thought I'd comment on a few recent local sports happenings.

In the last month I've actually attended a couple of Suns games at the 
"morgue".  Don't worry, the tickets were free and with the city 
turning off all the street side meters at 5pm parking can also be 
free.  One game I took the train from Tempe to the arena and back and 
that was fun.

As for the team itself my New Years resolution was to be a cup half 
filled guy so I really can't say much other then wonder about the 
rumor that reclusive GM Lance Blanks was seen walking around Suns 
offices with 8" long fingernails, a tattered robe and Kleenix boxes on 
his feet. Again, it's just a rumor.

The other big story revealed this weekend is the bounty the Saints had 
out for Kurt Warner in the 2009 playoff game.  So let's check the 
list: a bounty out for Warner; Justin Upton gets hit 80 or 90 times in 
the season; Canada wants our hockey team; Ryan Braun laughed all the 
way to the NLCS; every NBA team under .500 beats on the Suns, 
particularly at home.

I guess the valley has become North America's "beyatch".

Geese... I'm starting to get depressed again.
