While the ending was not as riveting as all had hoped, the tourney was still very compelling as Phil Mickelson donned the green jacket in The Butler Cabin as all was said and done. Wait a minute! All might have been done, but all had certainly not been said. Mickelson was supposed to be “The Man” for the first part of the season as a certain someone chose to go under- ground for five months. “Lefty” did not live up to those lofty, initial expectations.

Interestingly, five of the seven ECHL first- round playoff series went to the fifth and final game. As is the sheet of ice they toil on, cool! College Hoops Due to this column running but once a month, it’s tough to stay current. But praise is warranted for a couple of colle- giate classics.

Admit it! If you were not a rabid “Dukie” then you were pulling for the underdog Bulldogs. Tell you what. If Butler’s Gordon Hayward leans into Duke’s center Brian Zoubek with 3.6 sec- onds remaining and Butler trailing by one and draws the foul instead of putting up the off-balance fadeaway shot, we’re likely celebrating Cinderella’s corona- tion. Okay! The second classic belongs to the Con- necticut women’s NCAA basketball champs who have run the table in con- secutive years. What a feat — 78 straight victories and counting. Their 53-47 win over Stanford wasn’t dominant by any means. Stanford had themselves to blame as they held an eight point lead mid-way through the first half as UConn went ice-cold. But the Cardinal couldn’t capitalize and up their lead as they hibernated as well. Big props to coach Geno Auriemma and his staff at Connecticut for their recent hardcourt prowess. Tennessee’s legendary Pat Summitt is now in Auriemma’s rearview mirror. Who’d have thunk it? Bold Predictions — National Hockey League playoffs are beginning. Washing- ton’s Capitols look to be the class of the league. Defending Stanley Cup winner Pittsburgh could challenge them in the Eastern Conference. Out west, the San Jose Sharks edged out Chicago for the number one seed. I’ll go out on thin ice and predict that the Blackhawks skate away with the 2010 cup. The Lakers will not win the NBA cham- pionship! They may not even make it to the finals as Dallas, Denver and Phoenix will be formidable tests. The feeling here is that either Orlando or Cleveland from the Eastern Conference will be crowned champion. Give the edge to LeBron and Shack as Cleveland has the bigger chip on its shoulder. Who’s playing possum better at the start of the baseball season: The lacklus- ter Dodgers or the jettisoned Giants? Eight times out of ten Los Angeles will finish ahead of San Francisco in the final standings. Is it an anomaly that “El Lay” is cellar- dwelling at press time and that the boys of summer from “The City” are ensconced in first place in the National League West? I think not, as the Giants’ pitching shall trump anything the Dodgers present, and San Francisco shall prevail ahead of Los Angeles at year’s end. Ladies and gentlemen, predictions are as fickle as the weather. You may predict to others and put yourself on the line, but one never really knows. I may certainly end up with egg on my face regarding these predictions. And that’s cool. But one thing on my side is time, meaning that by the time the endless hockey and basketball playoffs come to a close (for- ever and a day!) nobody will even remember my predictions!
