I am assuming I am the tallest person blogging....I would say thats a pretty safe assumption, The only person taller than me that I know has a hard time tying his shoes...let alone turing on a computer.

Heeeeeerrrreeeeee We GO!

Long absence, Deal with it, I would say sorry, but I have been busy so my blog has suffered. Finals are over, I have been on a two week break of nothing-ness, its been great. The first year of law school sucks, no ifs ands or buts about it, it sucks...I took two weeks of finals, after a month of studying, its finally over. I would tell you all about it, but I would bore you to tears, so I won't, just know it was the worst thing school wise I have ever done, yet some how I enjoyed it, go figure.

Now on to the rest of the summer, I will be heading, as the locals like to say, across the pond, and spend some time in both London and Salzburg. I will be taking some classes over there in London, I will be taking a terrorism and public policy and in Salzburg, I will be taking a foundations of European and American law taught by the honorable Justice Anthony Kennedy. Should be fun and interesting. I will be updating a different blog, worlds tallest traveler, soon, a more parent friendly blog, so stay tuned for that link. I will gone from June 11th - July 28th, and will enjoy many travels.

Now on to what this blog is really about, the draft lottery. The wolves true to form stuck with the 3rd spot, the didn't move up any but hey at least they didn't move down any. Sounds good right, WRONG, the 3rd pick might be the worst pick in this years draft, there are two front runners, after that you are looking at "potential" and with the wolves they are likely to take a flier on a little known kid out of the sunbelt conference who they are "really excited about."

Well, who is it gonna be Lopez, Mayo, some Italian, who knows, and who cares, there are alot of questions and the wolves, who need a new direction, are stuck with a player who could, I stress COULD be ready in a few years. As always, the wolves are a few years away from being a good team, awesome, they were a few players/years away from being a good team in '91. So with that being said, I am leaving the wolves organization, it has been a long time coming, but I was holding out hope that something good would come of this year/lottery, to change my mind, NOPE. So good bye wolves, and soon good bye twins, I am only hanging on to a thread with the vikes, but we will see, at least the are attempting to get better. I am tired of the mismanagement, the selling of hope, and the eventual disappointment. The wolves and twins are train wrecks, I am done, I wash my hands of the wolves now, and on Aug 19th, I will wash my hands of the twins.

I was at my parents house watching the draft lottery, I convinced my mom to hold off on the finale of dancing with the stars long enough to see the results of the lottery. When the text of "here comes Brooke Lopez" hit my phone I went downstairs and grabbed an old, too small Chicago Bulls sweatshirt I had and threw it on. I am back on the Bulls bandwagon, I left with the mishandling of Jordan, and now return because I have nothing left to cheer for in MN.

Let's GO BULLS!!
