5 things I don't like this weekend

1. The Eastern Conference Playoffs. Cleveland 2-0. Detroit 3-0. Chicago 3-0. Jersey 2-1. Ughhh. The only mildly entertaining series has been Chicago vs. Miami and it will be over by Sunday. Apparently, everyone forgot that the Heat only have two good players and one of them is playing with a dislocated shoulder.

2. LeBron. Ok, maybe this is too harsh. Perhaps it is because they are playing in the least exciting of the first round matchups. And I know Bron Bron is averaging 25 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 7 assists a game. But he is shooting an Eric Snow-like percentage right now and has done nothing remarkable thus far. Let's go Chosen One. Time to wake up. MJ was dropping 63 in the Garden right about now.

3. The NFL Draft. 15 minutes per pick!? You kidding me with that? Do you realize that the first round will take 480 minutes to finish! That is 8 hours. Rex Grossman lost the Super Bowl almost 2 and a half months ago, meaning that nearly all of these teams have 3 months to prepare for the draft. Please explain to me why they still need 15 minutes to decide who they want.

4. Julian Tavarez pitching in Yankee Stadium on Sunday. If the Sox had a fifth pitcher, Joe Torre might be out of a job on Monday. That being said, he was part of one of the funniest moments of the season thus far.

5. Michael Vick. Listen, Mike. Michael. Superman. Ron Mexico. You are 27 years old. You have played in the NFL for 6 seasons now. Your career QB rating is among the worst for all starting QBs. Your backup is now Joey Harrington, another colassal bust (and one of the corniest QBs in the league. You came in the league and you were supposed to revolutionize the league. Now, you're just the guy who is the news for neglecting dogs and carrying James-Bond like water bottle containers (pretty cool idea, actually). But most importanly Tom Brady, who by the way was selected with 198 picks after you a year earlier, has won more Super Bowls than you have playoff games.
