WBC, Idol, Race, Trump

You know, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday could be my favorite days of Television.

I managed to watch the first 5 innings of the WBC championship game between Cuba and Japan. After watching, I realized that I am a big fan of Japanese baseball. I love the way the approach the game. Very disciplined. While hitting, they just try to put the ball in play. The Cuban/American style is much more of a power game, that for me, is not just that interesting. So, why the heck am I an AL fan, where the power game is stressed (by using a DH)? Anyway, Ichiro is still my favorite player in the MLB.

Right now my favorite on winning American Idol is Chris. I actually agree with Simon most of the time in his assessment of Chris. Almost every Chris performance you could "hear" on the radio. Mandeesa (sp?), is a close second in my book. Last night she just belted out her song, and may have been the best won of the evening. After that, I just don't know. I do like Taylor a lot, but I don't think he'll make it into the top 2, maybe top 5 though. I just wish "Chicken Little" would get voted off.

Well, the Amazing Race is now in Germany. I must say, those two hippie/surfer guys are really growing on me. They not only are having fun, but also are helping out other teams.

As far as the Apprentice, no one candidate has stuck out as one I like. Yes, a few are real pains, but I can't see any one of those people working for Trump. I must admit though, I'm having lots of fun watching Lenny argue with his team.
