Monday Morning Report

This weekend was exceptional with all the playoff action in the NBA and the NHL. Among this weekends winners are the Milwaukee Bucks, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and the Phoenix Coyotes. The Phoenix Coyotes were exceptional in their 4-1 win in game 6 at Joe Louis Arena which is a tough place to play on the road. I also want to congratulate Alexandre Vinokourov for winning the extremely difficult Liege-Bastogne-Liege Ardennes Classic. I should also take the time to congratulate Cadel Evans, the current road world champion, for winning Fleche Wallone atop the mur de Huy. Among this weekends losers are the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks. There seems to be trouble with the Lakers without Kobe putting up more thirty points in a game. If they don't get their act together they will be at home watching the NBA finals. The Mavericks are in trouble down 3-1.
