We're up to the final round of the regular season and I'm here to give a follow-up to this post, where I predicted who would make the Super 14 finals.
There are still seven teams with a chance of making the finals.
I've been torn away from the 'I-haven't-been-writing-much-because-the-NBA-playoffs-are-in-full-swing' desk for five minutes to let you all know that LeBron James is the NBA's MVP. Even Shaq agrees.
Does this mean those who knock him as being over-hyped and over-priced will now shut up? Probably not. But I can take comfort that he's got the gong in half the time it took Kobe Bryant. Oh, and that the Cavaliers are going to go through post-season undefeated this year [yes, I am putting my head on THAT chopping block].
All of the subtle ribbing from people and claims he is a cheat mean nothing to me now, given that he received 109 of the 121 possible first-round picks for MVP, and the total amount of voting points for him was 1, 172.
Congratulations from Godzone, LeBron [Now just come and play for the Breakers during the off-season].
With just three weeks to go until the Super 14 playoffs, I figured it was time I actually wrote something about the season.
If you've been following the competition at all, or attempting to tip it, you'll know how messed up it's been. [trumpet blowing here: aside from Ian Smith for me, two Dropkicks are beating all the other celebrities and a friend is in the top 50 on Jimungo]. You better listen to what we say.
