Overtime

:10—Okay, let’s get to the real important stuff first. And I do mean important…like earth shattering. Some blind guy forgot to put someone on “The List.” You know what list…the finest women in the world list that is put together every year by an undisputed but somewhat old staff. (Never you mind who!) Anyway, you would have to be outside your mind not to have Nicole Scherzinger in the top five. Yeah, the former lead singer for The Pussycat Dolls. I don’t care who you take out of the line-up.  Damn it, just put her in!!! Got some question about that? Just Google up “Don’t Cha?”
:09—Now to some other stuff. At the Pitt-Florida State game the Panthers brought the house today. Almost capacity crowd. Retro blue throw back uniforms and yes boys and girls, they let loose the real D.J. The house was rockin.’ At 6:38 to go in the first half Pitt’s up 28-27.  I’m going out on that limb and tell ya Pitt upsets this #19 ranked team. Be back at ya!

:08—Gotta be careful here cause there’s certain things we can and cannot do and that’s just the way it is, but know this, Judge Dwayne Woodruff just announced his bid to run for the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. I can’t give you a lot of political talk here, but I can tell you this, there’s not a better man alive for the job and that my friend you can take to the bank!
:07—Back to the Pitt game for a moment. Florida State starts a cat that stands 7’ tall and weights in at 304 lbs. Bad news…there’s no fat to be found. Then they sub in a 7’4” dude.  Man, we need some of that mojo. I’m just sayin!
:06—Just met Coach Pat Narduzzi, Pitt head football coach for you City League guys who don’t keep up. Nice guy. That’s all.
:05—If you weren’t at the Westinghouse/Allderdice game the other night, you missed a goody. “The Dice” rolled “The Dice” with a buzzer beater to send the Bulldogs packin, but not without a fierce fight. For the Dice, point guard Jahi Ogbonna ran the show and set up the game winner to Jackson Blaufeld. But that being said, the best player on the floor that night was a young man I hope you hear a lot more from in the coming years.  6’8” James Ellis logged in 15 points, 13 rebounds, three steals, five blocked shots and at least five intimidations at the hoop. A great young talent to be sure. Let’s wish him well as he moves on.
:04—You heard about that movie “Split?” Mmmaaannn you better leave that movie alone.  All kinds of devilish stuff and Ms. Rudulph in that movie, but if you want to have a funky good time, John Wick is your huckleberry. (I keep telling ya. Val Kilmer…“Tombstone”).  Look, when I got to my car John Wick was still killing dudes!
:03—We got two. We need two more. A sales person who can sell gas to a man on fire and a writer who has an interest in community. Call Achieving Greatness Inc. if you’re interested 412-628-4856.
:02—Every now and then even a blind squirrel finds a nut. Pitt wins this one big 80-66.  I told ya early on. Yeah, I did.
:01—This just in. Florida State ran into a buzz saw by the name of Sheldon Jeter – 29 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. Hoo-Rah!
:00:00:00—No, your eyes do not deceive you.  This is a TRIPLE OVERTIME. As in Allderdice beating Obama in triple O.T.  Best high school game seen around these parts in years. Jahi Ogbonna and Tyler Williams stole the show! The Dice rolls 71-70 for City League title. More on this next week.
~ GAME OVER ~
