What Up Wednesday (3.9)
Sunday, March 6, 2011
Its been a while but What Up Wednesday is back with a pretty solid lineup this week feat. the month of March, Dion Phaneuf, Jarome Iginla, Kleenex tissues and baseball.
What Up March - The month of March is simply the best to a sports fan. The weather starts to get nice, baseball is back, the NHL and NBA seasons are winding down with playoffs around the corner, and March Madness starts. It doesn't get much better... Or does it!? That's right: the 2011 Old Dominion Spring Sieger Dog Show is March 19th-20th! It's being held in Chesterfield, VA and The Show will be sponsoring a carpool service for all who want to attend. Vans will be available so all you dog-show enthusiasts can enjoy the multitude of festivities without having to worry about the drive! Spots will fill up quickly so contact us!!
What Up Dion Phaneuf - A leader is more than someone who can just give a good pump-up speech before a game. Being a true leader means leading by example; it means showing those who follow you the right way to play; it means going first when no one else will step up. Last Thursday, Toronto Maple Leafs captain Dion Phaneuf did just that for his soldiers with a huge hit that certainly got the boys going. In fact, he's so passionate about leading that he didn't even wait for the game to start. During warm up's he sent a message to his players and it certainly got through to them as the Leafs went on to beat the Flyers 3-2. Coincidence? Don't think so.
What Up Jarome Iginla - Iginla, who has consistently been one of the most effective players and leaders in the NHL over the past decade, made history this week by becoming only the 10th player in NHL history with 10 or more consecutive 30+ goal seasons. Iginla's Flames are number two in the Northwest division, and while winning the division is out of the question, the Flames are setting themselves up nicely for the playoffs with a strong second half of the season.
What Up Kleenex - Top correspondents from Kleenex Tissue Company have announced some potential interest in moving the corporation's headquarters to Miami, Fl. When asked about the move, one correspondent replied, "It's a great location for a lot of reasons, but knowing that the Miami Heat are going to be right down the street may do wonders for our company. If they keep playing the way they're playing now we could potentially triple our yearly sales, and Chris bosh has been an unbelievable ambassador for our company recently, so it's certainly something we're considering strongly at the moment." The announcement came shortly after two separate crying incidents occurred amongst Miami players as the result of the Heat losing to the Orlando Magic and Chicago Bulls. Make sure to stay tuned for updates as we closely follow the future of Kleenex Tissue Company.
What Up Baseball - You told me you'd be back, and although a harsh winter made it hard to believe your promise, you stayed true to your word. I'm not going to sit here and say that I actually care about spring training, because I really don't, but it's extremely refreshing to be able to turn on the tv and see some baseball highlights.
Now if you could just make Chase Utley's knee better I would really appreciate it, because I don't particularly enjoy crying myself to sleep every night.
