A trip to Idaho

Last weekend we drove over to Moscow to visit Kyle, Brook and Genevieve. We rented a movie ate some Chinese takeout then wondered up on campus and watched an exciting lacrosse game between the U of I and Gonzaga.

IT'S A GREAT DAY TO BE A BLUE DEVIL

Intresting bit of useless trivia. Wa-Hi won the state baseball championship in 1988.
The Devils deafeated the Decatur Golden Gators in the semifinals. Then defeated Juanita high school in the finals. Juanita's starting pitcher was Cody Webster. The same player who was the star of the 1982 little league world series.

Chiawana also featured here is the new high school in Pasco.

This Would Never Happen In The NBA Today

During the 1980 Western Conference Finals the defending world champion Sonics were forced to played two home games on the campus of the University of Washington. Apparently their were concerts scheduled for the Seattle Center Arena and a Mariners home stand at the Kingdome.

These days arenas try to leave playoff dates open and if their is a conflict the NBA has priority.

Blue Devil Highlights Including Drew And Dean On The local News

The is a Friday night round up luckily the Wa-Hi game and Bledsoe interview are at the beginning

Drew Bledsoe talks about how he never got to play in the new gym. As I was sitting in the new gym I was thinking about how nice a facility it is. At the same time the noise and energy seemed to dissipate in comparison to the old gym where almost every big game was standing room only and the fans were right on top of the court.

WHAT A FUSTER CLUCK!

When it was announced that negotiations had started for this bout I thought that they would have along drawn out process. With Haggling over money, ring size, glove size, and what weight the bout would be contested at. Much to my surprise all those issues were agreed upon almost immediately.

Then last week it came out that they couldn't come to an agreement on drug testing protocol. Surely they wouldn't walk away from a 150 million dollar fight over drug testing? Well it's starting to look that way

If Only The Younger Mora Was This Entertaining

The Pontiac Silver Dome

The Pontiac silver Dome was built in 1975 at a cost of 55 million dollars.
Over the years it has hosted a Superbowl numerous Detroit Lions thanksgiving day games. It held 93,000 when Pope John Paul II Visited and almost as many when Hulk Hogan body slammed Andre the Giant and Wrestle Mania III.

With all that history you would think it would have been a valuable asset. It wasn't.
The dome and the surrounding property sold at auction in November for $583,000(not a misprint).
