I meant to write about this earlier. Anyway, the Boston Red Sox swept the Colorado Rockies 4-0 to win the 2007 World Series. Here are some video highlights of the final game (mostly their victory celebration):
Congratulations to the Red Sox and their fans.
Ichiro Suzuki led the American League to a 5-4 victory over the National League in Tuesday night’s Major League Baseball All-Star Game. Suzuki was named the MVP of the game, and he deserved it, since he hit the first EVER All-Star Game in the park home run. Even though this is his seventh All-Star game since joining MLB in 2001, this is the first game where he has made a major contribution to the outcome.
So, fans, what’s your opinion? Was Ichiro Suzuki the MLB All-Star Game MVP? Or did your favorite get passed over?
Today, Dallas Mavericks Center Dirk Nowitzki was the first European player ever named NBA MVP. Dirk certainly had an excellent regular season. From Tim Duncan to Kobe Bryant you could have made a case for quite a few players being right for the trophy. However, Dirk really did have a great year.
Dirk’s Dallas Mavericks won 67 games (not many teams have done that). He scored 24.6 points per game, had 8.9 rebounds per game, 3.4 assists per game, and shot over 90 percent from the free throw line. Not bad…
A lot of you have been making your case for who should win on this post. Now that it’s official what do you think? Should Dirk have won?
The official announcement isn’t due until next Tuesday, but ESPN is reporting that Dirk Nowitzki is scheduled to be the winner. It’s unclear how definite this is, but I guess we’ll all find out next Tuesday.
Should Kobe win it this year? What do you think? Here’s some good video to back up his claim for the MVP:
Dwayne is probably my favorite player to watch in the NBA right now. He just has a certain quiet confidence about him that I really like. He has been injured, so who knows how he will do in the playoffs, but should he be this year’s MVP? Check out this video:
He certainly makes a good case for himself. He is a lot of fun to watch. Check out this King James video to see why he should be the 2007 NBA MVP:
These video highlights make a good argument that he should be.
Wow. I just read over on ESPN that a 102 year old woman, became the oldest golfer ever to hit a hole in one on a regulation golf course.
Contratulations to Elsie McLean on an amazing shot.
Here are the results of our last poll:
Who will be the 2007 MVP in the NBA?
Total Votes : 175
As expected, Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith won college football’s Heisman Trophy today.
Troy Smith got 801 first place votes and he won the overall Heisman vote by 1,662 points. Each of those were the second best results in the history of the award.
For those wanting to know why he won, here is a video highlight reel of Troy Smith’s 2006 Heisman Trophy season:
The 2006 National League MVP was awarded to Ryan Howard of the Philadelhia Phillies. He had 58 home runs this year, which is the most in MLB since Barry Bonds hit 73 homeruns in 2001.
Ryan Howard beat out the 2005 NL MVP Albert Pujols who came in second. Ryan had 20 first place votes and 12 second place votes which gave him 388 points. Albert Pujols had 12 first place votes, 19 second place votes, and one third place vote which gave him a total of 347 points.
In case you were wondering, the MLB MVP awards are given out by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. I am not sure what the details are for the voting process.
Anyway, congratulations to Ryan Howard for a great year and for winning the 2006 MLB NL MVP award!
The American League MLB MVP for 2006 is Twins’ Justin Morneau. Who won his first AL MVP award, beating out Derek Jeter.
