Friday Farewells

This weeks Friday Farewells are bought to you by your local shrub.  


Farewell:


Sweep.  The Celtics suddenly went from dominating to filling out applications for the AARP.  Seriously, the Celtics have aged two-years per game in this series and they were not young to begin with.  Combine the onset of osteoporosis with all their injuries and their coach Doc Rivers may have to suit up.  I think he probably still has game.  Three tears for the Celtics because I know how it feels to get old.  


Jobs. Hello prison.  Federal agents are now investigating the Kansas Ticket Scheme.  Maybe, I need to get into ticketing that seems to be where all the money is.  Well the Jayhawk staff will have to do the Jail-House Rock Chalk! Tears only from my bad Rock Chalk Jayhawk Joke.

Cash. Lots of coin was lost this week due to comments made about upcoming free-agents most notably Lebron James.  Lucky for Steve Kerr and Mark Cuban two of the people that lost money the NBA has found it & will take good care of it by donating it to a charity.  Phew catastrophe avoided.  
 
Cloud of Suspicion. Hello Thunderstorm of allegations.  A 15-month investigation has lead the NCAA to allege 8 MAJOR violations against the UConn Huskies Men's Basketball Program.  Farewells in the near future include: Scholarships, Post-Season Play, Allowable Telephone Calls, Recruiting Contacts, Possible TV Games, and HEADS, which will be rolling soon.  Tears, not too many, it hurts to get caught with your hand in the cookie jar.  

Shrub. Need I say more.  Tears, I prefer watering eyes, but yes a few from the pine needles getting me in the eye.




If you are feeling the urge to rip out a shrub or just want some more light reading go here.
