Trending on Tuesday Morning

We'll go with a numbers version of Tuesday Trends today.

  • 56 - # of point the Orlando Magic scored against the Celtics last night, marking their lowest point total in franchise history.
  • 1 - Undefeated team left in the country - Murray State.  Who?  Paducah, KY school with 10,000+ enrollment.  Not always a good thing being the last undefeated come March Madness.
  • 40 - I spoke to my biddy Phil Martelli Jr., a coach for the Delaware basketball program, who handed Towson their 40th straight loss.  He told his guys not to underestimate anyone and luckily for the Blue Hens, they heeded his warning.
  • 3 - Teams in the AP poll top 6 from the Big 12 - Missouri (#2), Kansas (#5), Baylor (#6)
  • $500,000 - Amount rapper 50 Cent won by betting the Giants this weekend against the 49ers.  Not bad for a guy already worth $100 million.
On that note, I am going to spend some time with Nolan, who pays me $0 yearly.  It's worth it though, the little guy is growing and it's a pretty cool thing to see.  At least one time each day I look at him and think to myself "is this kid really mine?" and then he either burps or farts.

Have a great Tuesday.
