Sports Week in Review:

Is it's set, the National Championship contest against a
stalwart team expected to be there and a mid major that has two of the best
players in the tournament. One of the best weeks for sports fans began as
the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees met at Fenway Park on Sunday night
to start the Major League Baseball Season.
The game's fiercest rivalry will resume on Tuesday. On Monday, the rest of
the Major League teams will face off. Monday night also brings together Duke
and Butler for the right to call themselves National Champions of NCAA
basketball. The weekend ends seeing Tiger Woods return to competitive golf
on the grandest stage, the Masters at Augusta National. It has something for
the sports fan in all. A champion will be crowned, the quest for another
championship begins and one person will begin his road towards making even
more history.
Butler making the national championship isn't a huge surprise to any one
outside of college basketball. They've been good in recent years and have
two NBA caliber players in Gordon Heyward and Sheldon Mack. Heyward scored
19 points and nine rebounds in the national semifinal against Michigan
State. It's Duke's first championship game since 2001.
It should be a great game and I expect Butler to have an extreme advantage
playing in their home city. Duke's used to playing in hostile crowds but
this might be unfair for a national championship game. People root against
Duke because of their institution and past history of success.
Major League Baseball begins at Fenway, but the rest of the league starts on
Monday with games all day. Roy Halladay makes his Phillies debut while the
rest of the league catches up to the Phillies, Yankees and Red Sox.
The most watched event will take place this weekend, as Woods returns after
a rocky offseason. It all started on Thanksgiving and didn't get much better
until he held a media event apologizing for his infidelity and ask that his
personal life be left alone. This occurred after most of his major sponsors
left and he's going to have to rebuild his reputation off the golf course if
he wants to start making more money through endorsements again.
He will return to form and win one or possibly two of the major
championships this season, but it's still going to be his toughest yet. The
glaring light that comes with being a cheating spouse and the world's
greatest golfer may be too much to overcome in the first tournament back,
but it's a start. He will address the media on Monday before the tournament.
So, the week in sports is a busy one, for an event that makes it a great
week. Enjoy fans, it's going to be a great one.
