Sports Games

Well, most of the week I have been recovering from a cold...but I got a few good events in.

Sunday, was the heart breaker 3rd game in the Twins and Yankees game. But it was the last baseball game in the Metrodome since the Twins are moving to the outside Target stadium. (Thankfully, they were in the Dome this year, cause it would have been cold enough to snow outside!)

Here's Shaun, Charlie and I at the game. Two other friends of our also came, Mark and Ian, but they were in a couple sections over since I couldn't get 5 seats in a row.


Wednesday was the last season home football game at De La Salle. There was a very lite misting in the air, that was partially snow-ish. Ehh anyways, De won like 52-14 or something like that. (Luckily they ran the clock for the 2nd half - normally they only run it for the 4th quarter.) They will probably play another football game there, but that will be when playoffs start in a couple of weeks.

And I guess if the stock market is considered a "sports game" the DOW hit 10,000 and my few invested pennies are doing well! And today on a pull back I invested a couple more pennies in to Las Vegas Sands (LVS)...an investment on gambling! I think it's poised to pop after the IPO next month in China. I think it will be a good long term investment too.

Tidbit by Thomas: This Saturday, the 17th, marks the 1 year memorial of Br. Jerome's passing. Br. Jerome was the brother in Napa who taught me Latin last summer (2008). Thanks to his patience and generosity, I have a Masters this year.
