On Vacation...

Corporate Pride?

I am not afraid to say that I am proud of the company that I work for...I have a few T-Shirts, some pens, and a coffee mug that has our name on it. I am not afraid t use those items in public.

I thought that was pretty standard across most large businesses (and small for that matter).

Then I was in our parking lot this morning and my jaw dropped!

Some loser had a license plate cover with our corporate name on it...Get a life!

Though I Am Not Surprised...

that Lehigh recieved a 16 seed, that is somewhat of a slap in the face to the Patriot League, when the Ivy League pulls a 12. Cornell is solid, and can upset just about anyone, but a 12?

I have more thoughts on the bracket, including the outrage that Duke is a 1 and VA Tech is aiming high for a NIT finale in NYC.

More to come!

At The Risk...

of counting my chickens before they are hatched...if Lehigh makes the dance on Friday, do I:

  • Want them to play in the play-in game, which is nationally televised, but is disrespectful to the Patriot League, which has had some great teams the last 8 or so years
  • Play as a 16 seed and end up against someone like Kansas / Duke / Cuse / etc.
  • or not worry about it, as my post will end up causing them to lose to Lafayette, and have the women win, which means I really am just pissing in the wind!

Way to go!

It has been one of those weeks!

Final Olympic Reflections...

Here are my thoughts:

HIGHLIGHTS (in no particular order):
  • For the most part Americans living up to the expectations in their individual sports
  • USA 4 Man Bobsled coming out of no where to take Gold
  • Apollo Ohno just dominating, and seems like an all-around nice guy
  • Watching the Canadian Figure Skater come through despite the unexpected loss of her mother
  • Shaun White simply going bigger and higher than everyone else
  • Ryan Miller standing on his head for 6 games, with a minor mental lapse in OT of the Gold Medal Game...the MVP of the tournament was well deserved.

LOWLIGHTS (in no particular order):

  • The sad story of the Georgian Luger
  • The American Ski Team spats between Vonn and ManCuso
  • The Russian Male Figure Skater being sour over 2nd place...get over yourself you fairy
  • Overall NBC coverage, headed by having to listen to Bob Costas, night in and night out.
  • Watching human interest pieces by Mary Carillo, as she tries out for the Canadian Royal Mounted Police, or mushing with a blind snow-dog
  • Mike Milbury...Mike Milbury...Mike Milbury

NEUTRAL (in no particular order):

  • Why does the world get so entralled with Curling? Everyone is waiting for a big moment to happen, and it never really does (for what it is worth, I am guilty of it as well)
  • Nice to not hear any stories about Performance Enhancing Drugs this go around
  • I still have not figured out the whole Ice Dancing thing yet...but that is ok...I did not really watch any of it anyway.
  • I would like to try a bi-athlon...chances are I would fall, and shoot myself in the back of the head though.
  • Interesting how the Beijing and Vancouver games were affected by weather so much
  • Kind of excited for London 2012...less so for Sochi 2014
