Earlier this morning, after failing to get any draft picks  for Tim Tebow, he was cut earlier this morning by the jets General Manager, which has drew even more attention to the franchise.  Another startling developing story in the NFL is the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles made a interesting pick in the draft to select quarter back Matt Barkley , starting quarter back for the USC Trojans , which raises questions over there franchise,and starting quarter back Michael Vick. Is Michael Vick's career over with in Philadelphia? The eagles also have some interesting decisions to make in there franchise to see who there starting quarter back will be . Another developing story in the NFL are the San Diego Chargers.

This is the last full week of the regular season before we get into the playoffs. Tonight is one of the last nights of the regular season and there are some great match-ups tonight. Tonight match-ups of the evening  start off with the  HOUSTON ROCKETS vs  PHOENIX SUNS and CLEVELAND CAVALIERS vs MIAMI HEAT .

The First prediction that will be made, is for the first match-up of the evening which are the HOUSTON ROCKETS  vs  PHOENIX SUNS. The Rockets are coming into this game a number 6 seed in the Western Conference , tied with golden state for the 6th place spot. The Rockets are coming into this game with a record of 45-35. The Phoenix suns are coming into this game trying to end there season out strong and maybe pull a few upsets at the end of the season. The Phoenix suns are coming into this game with a record of 24-56. The Rockets offense is going to be very  hard to contain for the Phoenix suns but if they can stop the rockets on offense, they might have a chance to win this game. My pick is that the Rockets will get the win tonight.

The Second prediction that will be made will be for the second match-up of the evening which are the MIAMI HEAT  vs CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. The Miami heat are coming into this game with a record of 64-16 and the number one team in the league right now. The Cleveland cavaliers are coming into this game trying to put up a few wins before the end of the season. The Cavaliers are coming into this game with a record of 24-56. Since the season is winding down and the Miami heat are by far the best team in the NBA right now, I believe the Cavaliers will win , just because the Miami heat will let most of there players sit out during the game because the post season is about to begin in a few days .

NCAA TOURNAMENT (WOMEN'S) Championship Game Prediction

Tonight is the night that the women's basketball NCAA championship will take place. The Two teams that are playing for the National Championship are LOUISVILLE CARDINALS  vs CONNECTICUT HUSKIES. Both of these teams have had completely different paths to the final four. The lady Cardinals were not expected to get past the sweet 16, but they surprised the world and the nation when they beat number 1 seed overall the Baylor Lady Bears. The Cardinals would soon go on to beat  Tennessee and Cal Berkeley to make it to the final game of the tournament. The Huskies have had a completely different path. Even though the Huskies were the number one seed on there end of the bracket they have had to play some very tough game just to get to the final game of this tournament. In the Huskies last match-up against Notre Dame, the Fighting Irish were predicted to win, because they had beaten the lady huskies 3 times during the regualar season. The Lady Huskies put everything aside that happened during the regular season, and went out and dominated against the Fighting Irish. A lot of there players who usually didn't score, scored alot of points for them came up big when it mattered. Based on this I predict that the Lady Huskies will win the championship because they have a size advantage over the lady cardinals and they have weapons on offense and defense , that the cardinals are going to have a very hard time matching up against.
