Quite a storm last night. Winds blew rain and hail horizontal--warnings of 70 mph winds were on target. I left a couple door walls open and the winds blew in so strong that rain sprayed onto the top of the kitchen counter getting salt and pepper shakers sitting there wet up to their tops. Leaves are stuck to the door wall windows up to the top and on the siding. Only one large branch came down. Now for a little cleanup.
The Chicago Bulls stormed into the Palace making it interesting against the Pistons by winning two straight after the Pistons won the first three. I was wrong about the Pistons sweeping if they won the third game--so much for my picks.
Pistons did something similar to this last year against Cleveland Cavaliers--got off to great start and then had to struggle to win the series. That seemed to take something out of them and they lost to Miami in the conference championship--perhaps they were just not as good as Miami last year.
We shall see what happens Thursday as they return to Chicago for game six.
On the other hand the Red Wings blasted the Ducks 5-0 Tuesday in a surprising offensive show. They now have home ice back in their favor.
And the Tigers showed they can play with anyone as they beat up on the Boston Red Sox Tuesday. After giving up a first inning run, Justin Verlander shut the Sox down until the eighth inning while Ordonez supplied all the runs they would need with a 3-run homer in the third. Still atop the Central Division.
