2008

Happy 4rd of July!

Sonics moving to OKC: is the excitement only the feeling of novelty or long-lasting support for the team? Sooners basketball team has been poorly supported with the exception to its journey to Final Four a few years back. Although professional basketball is on different level altogether, I couldn't help but think that it's a perfect barometer to see how well local fans will support NBA in a long run. When the novelty wears off, I think the fans will show their true colors. Football is the ultimate sport here and it's here to stay.

I give Sonics 5 years, max before they find another place to move.

Just a quick reminder to everyone that Medieval Fair will be held on April 4th - 7th (Friday - Saturday).

IME, it's going to be about the same festivities as previous years: throwing axes, shurikens, riding elephants, knight-battle simulations etc. I visit it almost every year, and I swear I can visually remember where they are located. Their attractions literally never move around.

But if you haven't been to one, I highly recommend you to check it out. It's one of Norman's annual highlights. It's a great way to welcome spring season.

I'll try to take some photos during that time and post them here.

For a quick notice, so check it out here:

BOOMER SOONERS!

These are the list as of now:

Malcolm Kelly
Curtis Lofton
Reggie Smith
Marcus Walker

Stay tuned for more updates.

Personal note: losing MK, Lofton and Smith will leave a big dent to Stoops troops this season. I am personally disappointed, but I'm a selfish fan so... good luck for them and wish them to rip it up like AD did this year!

Congratulation to ex-Sooners "All Day" (AD) Adrian Peterson and Tommie Harris for making it into Pro Bowl 2008 roster!

As the matter of fact, AD will make his appearance as a STARTER for NFC team! That is a very rare accomplishment for any rookie in the league.

Much love to Tommie. Although I think he should be a starter, Tommie will play as a reserve DT for NFC. It's great to see AD battled it out with Tommie on last Monday Night Football :)

It's good to be a Sooner.
