Back from the Holidays the Gryphon Basketball team has three games this week. Hertford County and Beddingfield and the cap off the week starting conference play with Northern Nash.
Caroline Gray was named the 'Rocky Mount Telegram" girls tennis player of the year and coach Barry Nettercutt was named Coach of the year.
I watched bits and pieces of the Carolina basketball game. It doesn't matter who you are but when you look for that next gear to go to in a game sometimes you just don't have it or the other team can stay with your extra gear. Last night Boston college had every answer for Carolina.
Now that the question of whether they will go undefeated is gone they can concentrate on winning the ACC which is now not a gimme for the Tar Heels.
Duke takes care of Virginia Tech but I just don't see the Devils winning the conference. They are to me too slow and the Belmonts of the world will give them trouble throughout the season.
Next possible trouble for Duke is Wednesday night against Stephan Curry and Davidson. I think Curry is getting a lot of attention this year but Davidson is not as good as they were last season.
The NFL playoffs are set for next weekend. I got three out of four this past weekend.
It starts at 4.45pm Saturday with the Baltimore Ravens at the Tennessee Titans. This one could be a slug fest and I will take Baltimore.
The prime time Saturday night game with feature the Carolina Panthers who will host the Arizona Cardinals. I think the Panthers will host the NFC championship game the following week.
The reason they will host is Philadelphia is going to take out the New York Giants on Sunday at 1.00pm.
If that happens it will setup a rematch between the Eagles and Panthers. Remember the Panthers unset Philly and went to the Superbowl in 2003.
The final game of the weekend will send the San Diego Chargers to Pittsburgh. I pick the Charger to Host the AFC Championship game since I am picking Baltimore to knock out Tennessee.
If I go four for four this weekend that will set up Philadelphia the #6 seed taking on the Panther the #2 seed in the NFC. The #6 seed Ravens will travel to the #4 seed San Diego Chargers for the AFC Crown.
If this were to happen it can only show all Gryphon fans the best team doesn't all ways win in the playoffs. Just ask the football team.
