Kids...

No. We're not having any quite yet.

But my niece is in her terrible two's and taxes mine and Holli's patience a lot. Don't get us wrong, we love her and spoil her a lot...if I had enough gall (and I just might) I'd say that we're her favorites (only because we live the closest). But, as we're expecting a nephew in the next four to six weeks, we'll probably watch her a little more to help her parents out, so this could be good practice for Holli and I as future parents.

But then again, I guess you're never completely ready, are you?

OK, now that I rattled off something else, I can talk about the Suns. Initially, I thought I would be completely heartbroken, but think about it. With Amare Stoudemire out and with other injuries plaguing the team, nobody thought they'd make it this far. I wish they hadn't lost tonight, but after repeat trips to the Western Conference Finals these past two seasons, I think they're well positioned for next year. In fact, I think many a team is unprepared for what the Suns could pack next year. Thanks for a great season, guys.
